Pothana Village

Het ontzettend vriendelijke en behulpzame personeel, en de manager Dennis die alles in het werk stelde om ons te helpen met wat probleempjes die we hadden met onze Jeep....
Zwembad was heerlijk, kamers waren ruim.

Location , staff specially Denise , he is the man , too kind,, too helpful, if you visit Sigiriya go to Pothana and ask for DENIS .

We had a great time at Pothana Village the hotel was surrounded by nature which was relaxing and the staff was very helpful. Highly recommended

A lovely hotel surrounded by nature perfect for a relaxing holiday

Location

Only location

Wow what can I say…

From getting out of the car and being greeted by Thilak and his team I had one regret….We only booked the one night and regret it wasn’t longer(we are booking next year now)

The peace and quiet was perfect

The food magnificent

The staff so attentive (even at 4am when we had to leave they where there with their beaming smiles)

Now onto the facilities got to say bang on looking over the lake made it more like an adventure than just a normal stay with all the wildlife and sounds of the jungle around you

It was if anything magical being so close to nature

Arriving in the afternoon we had a few relaxing hours around the pool before dinner cooked to perfection (Sri Lankan curry amazing)

Thank you for making our very short stay so wonderful and we will be back next year but for longer

Value for the money /staff service / homely

We stayed 3 days at Pothana Village in Sigiriya and we absolutely love it. Such a beautiful place, surrounded by nature with stunning views over the lake—truly peaceful and spacious.

The owners go above and beyond to make you feel welcome, and the service is warm and genuine. A special mention for the care they provide: they made our daughter’s birthday extra special with a thoughtful celebration, and they also took great care of those in our group who weren’t feeling well (typical travelers issues)—something we truly appreciated.
The restaurant offers a great mix of local and international dishes, all very tasty.

What makes it extra special: in the evening, elephants sometimes pass by nearby—an unforgettable experience!

Mid-range in price, but so worth it for the setting and atmosphere. Highly recommended!

Todo un 10/10. Llevamos mucho tiempo viajando por Asia y es probablemente el hotel donde más cómodos hemos estado. Eramos 9 personas y nos han tratado a todos de maravilla.

El personal es inmejorable, muy educados y te Dan cualquier cosa que necesites. Son muy atentos. Las habitaciones eran muy buenas, y limpias, las camas cómodas, duchas de agua caliente... La piscina también la limpiaban constantemente. La comida estaba muy buena, los desayunos eran buenísimos.

Toda la familia recomendados mucho totalmente este hotel. Muchas gracias por el servicio. Si algún día volvemos a Sri Lanka, volveremos aquí

L'endroit très reposant et dépaysant au bord d'une rivière
La piscine
3 paons dans le jardin aux quels on peut donner du pain
Les écureuils, les chiens de la maison
Les repas : adaptés à toute la famille
Le personnel charmant

The staff here are extremely friendly and helpful. The room itself is a fair size and was clean and well presented. The main building gave safari lodge vibes and serves good food, it is all outdoors though so don't forget your mosquito spray for the early morning and evenings if making use of it. The pool was a good size and had plenty of sun beds and large umbrellas.

This property is exceptionally good. We have travelled so many countries and lived at various places but this place is different. The entire team is so so good and so damn hospitable. It felt like we were living with out extended family. Please do visit them and share the love with them. This will definitely change your mindset about staying in a hotel.
The entire team went out of the way to help my daughter with her cough and cold and was always there to do anything and everything we asked for.
If I ever visit Sri Lanka this place is going to be constant.

velmi milý personál, hezká atmosféra, snadná domluva všech výletů i transportu

Nice friendly and available personnel who always want to do the best for your stay, nice pool, nice park with nice wild life (birds, squirrel,peacock,...), great service from the owner to bring you to any place you would like to visit. Nice food and wine, great breakfast.

Le personnel extrement chaleureux et au petit soin, la piscine chauffée, le lieu bien entretenu et beau,

The staff at Pothana Village and the beautiful property were a highlight of this stay.
The pool was beautiful, and the gardens and nature surrounding the property made our stay extremely peaceful. The staff were so kind and friendly, and the owner was so helpful and knowledgeable - he assisted us with booking tours, driving us to town and picking us up, and no request was too hard to fulfil. We got to see monkeys right outside our room, and so many beautiful birds as well - even peacocks that visit the property! The rooms were spacious and cool, and there was hot water every time we showered. The food we had at Pothana Village was also delicious; we enjoyed an English breakfast (the food kept coming, we had a variety of cut fruit, pancakes, Sri Lankan Omelettes, toast with jam and butter, with fresh juice and tea and coffee as well), and the Sri Lankan curry was one of the best we tried in Sri Lanka.
The owner provided us with warmth and hospitality during our stay, and I would recommend staying here if you are wanting to visit Sigiriya or Dambulla, or just want to enjoy a quiet retreat where you can feel at one with nature.
