Pros:

The room was spacious and very clean, and the breakfasts were fantastic. The owner was extremely hospitable, making us feel very welcome throughout our stay. We also appreciated the small details, like the availability of a hairdryer. The location is perfect, with the Cave Temple just a short distance away.

If we were to mention a couple of minor things: it was a bit warm near the ceiling, but with the air conditioning, it was easy to cool down. Also, a mosquito net would have been a great addition.

Overall, it was a lovely experience, and we would definitely recommend it!

Great hosts!
Pros:

Nature Rock Dambulla is set back from the main road in a quiet location but still close proximity (and a nice walk) to the Dambulla Cave Temples. The room is clean and spacious with good air-conditioning. We stayed for two nights and had an excellent stay, Ravi was an excellent host and very knowledgeable about the local area and helped us arrange visits to all the places we were there to see.
On our first evening we walked to the cave temples and then on to the local town for dinner. The next day and for a reasonable price, Ravi arranged a trip for us to visit Lion Rock at Sigiriya and the ancient city of Polonnaruwa followed by dinner at his son Krishan's local restaurant. The following day, and again, with Ravi's assistance in arranging we took a hot air balloon flight in the morning, followed with a great breakfast provided by Krishan and onward travel arrangements to our next destination with a stop at a local nature reserve on route.
We had a very enjoyable time here at Nature Rock Dambulla! 10/10

Superb
Pros:

The host is super welcoming, friendly and helpful, he really went above and beyond to make us feel at home, especially since we were spending Christmas Eve and Christmas Day there. He even organised for us a delicious dinner at a close by restaurant owned by a relative.
The room is very big and new and it's very clean too.
The breakfast is yummy.
The location is very close to the famous temple of the caves (the host works there so he took us there personally and explained everything for us!)
The host helped us organise our days in Dambulla giving us all the necessary information for public transportation and important monuments & must see things. Also, on our last day, his son, who is also incredibly warm and kind, took us in his own tuktuk to the bus station.
They really are amazing people and they made our stay memorable.

Cons:

Nothing. We would go back again 😊

A Serene Retreat Near Dambulla Cave Temple

From the moment we arrived, the owner's warm hospitality made us feel right at home. He provided us with invaluable tips and guidance, ensuring that our stay was a memorable one.

The highlight of our stay had to be the breakfast - it was nothing short of amazing! The delicious spread of local dishes and fresh fruit was a delightful way to start our day. And the best part? It's conveniently close to the Dambulla Cave Temple, allowing us to embark on our spiritual journey with ease.
