Hotels with Parking in Ambagamuwa

Location and clean environment was excellent

Huge ajoining well appointed suites overlooking the river in the midlle of the rain forest with a steam room, heated plunge pool and jacuzzi bath. Yes the location is remote, but well worth the effort. Stunning main building and pool, with super helpful staff. We enjoyed the rock pools in front of the hotel and hking up to the waterfall for the 10m jump (recommend wearing closed in shoes with long socks for the hike). It didn't rain much at all :-)

the place was beautiful and the 'natural pool' was nice and good for us as a family with toddlers

Amazing resort that is really entwined with nature. Not sure how it isn't more well known considering the value for money you get and the social mission the owner is on to improve livelihoods for local people in nearby villages. Whoever designed this place really has an eye for detail to allow you to experience luxury while still being immersed in the natural forest. We stayed in the balcony room and still have this amazing memory of sitting on the balcony (which is also equipped with a lovely ceiling fan, table and traditional chairs) during a rain storm and seeing the mist roll through the valley while listening to the sounds of the forest awoken by the rain. It was magical. The rooms are very clean and well maintained and I didn't see any critters which was hard to believe considering how close to the forest you are. There is a private track leading to a peaceful swimming hole in the nearby river which we had all to ourselves. Just me mindful of leeches if it's been raining. In regards to the food, we ordered a traditional rice and curry that wasn't actually on the menu but it was delicious. If you're Lankan or love spice, maybe just ask for local-level hot otherwise they will serve it mild. The service overall is very kind and attentive, proud to see this in Sri Lanka. Next time we will stay in the private villas as they look stunning with their private pools along with mini rivers running adjacent to the room. The magnificent Arberdeen waterfall is also a short tuk tuk drive away. I was a little worried in one review saying the place smelled overwhelming of Naphthalene but I didn't smell anything so maybe they changed something.

Absolutely stunning place for people who are looking for very calm, relaxing and beautiful rest. Located out of the city, directly in tea gardens. Really recommend ‘tea making” as activity there for people who want to know more about tea. Very delicious local food.

Welcome

The two guys Lionel & Kumar who run the place are very friendly. They will go out of their way to assist you in any way possible. They did my laundry for me. Lionel can arrange rafting, canyoning etc through Raft 39 where he works so this is convenient if you are in the area to do such things. The hotel is still under partial construction but this didn't impact my stay. I believe it is due to be finished soon for the upcoming main season as I was informed. The room is a very high standard, brand new, good AC, good bed, bathroom etc. Location is up a twisty mountain road, fine if you have a small car or tuktuk. If not the owners will assist by taking you up/down as they are always in the area. Dinner & breakfast served was always good & plenty of food so you won't go hungry.

Location super

Very comfortable accommodation with good food and particularly friendly, helpful staff. Went out of their way to help organise travel around the area to see the wildlife.

the location is unbeatable!! as previous reviews state the property is a touch rundown. but if you look past that and enjoy it for what it it’s fantastic! right on the river (the noise of the river is like white noise I slept great!) the main house is rundown but it adds to the charm- have a walk through and it’s like being in 1885 (or whatever era it was built) I had lunch - buffet which groups who just do activities get- I didn’t mind it. breakfast was passable but nothing to write home about. the activities were perfect and they have the activity leaders on site so no wasting time going to a check in facility
