Pros:

Idyllische Anlage, eine ruhige Oase neben dem hektischen Dambulla. Toller Pool. Moskitonetz vorhanden. Zweistöckiges Familienzimmer mit viel Platz und eigenem Balkon.
Nette Geste: beim Frühstück gab es immer eine lokale Speise zum Probieren dazu.

Cons:

Küche hätte zum Teil noch Luft nach oben - Hauptgericht des Menüs jeweils gut, restliche Gänge eher einfallslos.

Decent choice for a short stay.
Pros:

Relatively new hotel, lots of green around. Nice pool area that looks very inviting.

Cons:

Far from the main road, in the middle of nowhere. The rooms don’t have blackout, just some rolling shades, so you will wake up with the sunrise. Lots of mosquitoes in the room.

Great all around just a sour last experience.
Pros:

Property was so friendly, everything was clean and nice. 5 stars all around. Samir was exceptional and took great care remembering no spice for me at meal times. Showers were wonderful and the AC worked very well.

Cons:

The hotel ordered us tuktuk to Sigriya and we agreed on price. The tuktuk was 15 minutes late and once we were dropped off at next hotel the tuktuk driver was very aggressive and demanded more money. It was unfortunate that was the last experience with the hotel.
