Situated 3.2 km from Sigiriya Rock, Ali Adi Eco Lodge features accommodation with a garden, a terrace and room service for your convenience. Both WiFi and private parking are accessible at the lodge free of charge.

This place is a hidden gem! Our room was spacious, spotlessly clean and remained cool without air-con even in 37°C heat outside. The location is very peaceful, it's only a short drive from the main road but you are really immersed in the sounds of nature. The garden is a lovely spot to spend some time relaxing in a hammock watching the wildlife passing through, which includes many different bird and reptile species and if you're very lucky, even the occasional elephant! The owner is a lovely chap, and did his best to make sure we felt at home. He runs the place by himself and does a fantastic job, he cooked us a great Sri Lankan breakfast after taking us to Pidurangala rock for sunrise and he also offers cooking classes using a traditional wood fired stove and clay pots which we unfortunately didn't have time for. He clearly takes pride in and puts a lot of time into maintaining and improving his homestay. We definitely recommend Ali Adi eco lodge as an affordable and relaxing base to explore Sigiriya :)

    The staff were so friendly and helpful. They helped us to book the elephant safari and tuk tuk for our morning hikes. They were very accommodating! The food they cooked for dinner was really lovely! The room given only had a fan rather than AC so we changed room straight away when we arrived, the new room had excellent AC which was really needed!

    Little bit further out of town, but worth it for the view on the roof top terrace!!! Nice comfortable room. Asanka was very helpful and organised tuk tuk rides for us (even at 5am) and a safari - not that sure how the prices compared locally but it seemed very reasonable and excellent stress free services. Pool was great - large size and shady or sunny spots for relaxing.

    The lodges are spacious and spotless, with comfy beds and crisp linens. large picture windows and a wooden veranda with a view of the bats flying home to roost at sunset. The setting is quite magical, with peacocks, monkeys, iguanas and mongooses inhabiting the grounds. There is a large and well maintained pool which is very welcome. The Sri Lankan breakfast is very tasty and a short walk away Wilhara restaurant serves great food. Great location from which to visit Lion Rock Sigiriya
