Palmstone Retreat-Rafting, Hiking, and Waterfall Treks

Amazing hotel! Just perfect!
I wish I can visit here again.

מקום פשוט מדהים עוצר נשימה
חדרים מטורפים ומפנקים
מחוץ לחדר יש מפל מים הילדים קפצו שם ונהנו מאוד
בהחלט ארצה לחזור לגן העדן הזה
צוות שירותי מאוד ואדיב
יש שולחן סנוקר
בריכה טובה

De ligging, het uitzicht, de kamers, het personeel, de activiteiten, het eten.. Alles was ronduit geweldig. Genoeg te doen als stel maar zeker ook als je zoals wij met tieners reist. Wij verbleven er 2 nachten maar hadden er heel graag nog een nachtje aan vastgeplakt.

מקום מדהים
די מרוחק בלב היער ואין כל כך אינטרנט אבל במקום כזה לא צריך אותו נהנים מטבע והשקט

שווה את הנסיעה לשם
הצטערתי ששנינו שם רק לילה אחד
מחוץ לחדרים מפל ובריכות מים שאשפר להתרחץ שם הילדים קפצו מהסלעים
חדר מטורף בגודלו יפה ונקי
מיטות מאוד נוחות
פשוט וואו אחד גדול

Palmstone Retreat was an absolute gem. The property is beautiful, peaceful, and surrounded by nature, making it the perfect place to relax and unwind. Everything was spotless, well-maintained, and incredibly comfortable.

What truly made our stay special was the staff. They were outstanding—warm, attentive, and always ready to help. Surain and Sameer were absolutely amazing. They went above and beyond to make sure every need was taken care of and made us feel genuinely welcome throughout our stay. I've rarely felt so comfortable and well looked after at a property.

The food was delicious, the atmosphere was serene, and every aspect of our experience exceeded expectations. It was perfect in every way.

I would highly recommend Palmstone Retreat to anyone looking to spend quality time in a beautiful, peaceful setting. We can't wait to return.

A magical hidden gem tucked away in the heart of the forest. From the moment we arrived, it felt like stepping into another world — peaceful, breathtaking, and surrounded by nature’s beauty. The entire experience was unforgettable.

A special thank you to Sameera, Roshan, Sanjay, and the entire team for the exceptional hospitality and warm service. Every detail was handled with care, making our stay truly relaxing and memorable.

And the room… absolutely out of this world. Beautifully designed, incredibly comfortable, and perfectly blended with the surrounding nature. Waking up to the sounds of the forest and the stunning views was something truly special.

If you’re looking for a serene escape and a unique experience, this place is a must-visit. Can’t wait to come back!

Amazing views, the staff were great. An amazing hideaway. The on site waterfall and swimming in the river is amazing.

The remoteness of the retreat was definitely the biggest selling point for us, providing ultimate peace and tranquility, especially if you are lucky enough to have the place to yourselves as we did for much of the stay. The staff were amazing - attentive, kind, always present. The food was on the pricier side for Sri Lanka but understandable given the remoteness (and not as expensive as listed on booking.com) but some of the dishes were fantastic. We had a room with a plunge pool which was amazing to sit in watching the monkeys in the trees around.

Very remote location but we knew that before we booked. If your looking for somewhere to relax away from the hustle & bustle this is the place. Room was extremely clean & bed was sooo comfortable. Staff were very attentive & helpful. When we went to the water fall for a dip Ravi came with us to ensure our safety, he even jumped in with all his clothes on to show me the rock jump. Food was of a very high standard & tasty. Would highly recommend. Only other point i would say is they could do with safety rail to help across the rocks of the waterfall. Must point out we are older travellers so not so nimble.

Kamers en locatie

Geweldige locatie! Ze gaan mee met je de rivier in achter als je kinderen hebt.

חווית ג׳ונגל אוטנטית
צוות מקסים
חדרים ענקיים ומפנקים מול היער והנחל
במקום רק 6 חדרים מבודדים
לא להיבהל שמגיעים
הצוות לקח אותנו לטיול פרטי בנחל וטיפוס לנהר ולמפלים , מדהים . חווויה מטורפת יותר מוצלחת ואותנטית יותר מכל קניונינג ממוסחר

اعجبني الهدوء المرعب في المكان والاشجار المنوعة العالية حول الغرفة من جمعيع الاتجاهات تكار لاترى السماء من كثافتها ورؤية الحيوانات تشرب من المسبح ليلا مثل الخفافيش والافاعي والضفادع مع الكثير من الحشرات المتنوعة.

De locatie direct aan de rivier en het ontzettend vriendelijke personeel. We kregen een persoonlijke butler Ravi die meteen regelde dat er iemand mee ging met de kinderen naar de waterval om te helpen van de natuurlijke glijbaan af te komen en van de rotsen te springen. Ook regelde hij een treinkaartje wat mij niet meer lukte en allerlei andere dingen. Echt niets was teveel.

Beautiful ending to our Sri Lankan holiday. Had the whole place to ourselves! We had the room with the small outdoor pool and steamroom. It's in the middle of nowhere, but that made this such a nice place. Food was very good, breakfast next to the waterfall couldn't be more perfect. Room was massive, swimming pool very nice. We did nothing here, just relaxing, but you can go on hikes to the waterfall, look for birds or go to the cave.

We liked the drive over and made the experience feel more remote. But if you are traveling bij car or maybe tuktuk, we would definitely advise their pick-up service or that they drive your vehicle there. We traveled on motorbikes, and that was fine. But some parts of the road are very rocky. If you have low clearance on the car or don't feel comfortable on small mountain roads, don't drive yourselves.
