Grande chambre. Ménage proposé tous les jours
Magnifique et immense piscine.
Très joli parc
Propriétaires peu présents et peu disponibles. Ne parle pas très bien anglais. Donc peu/pas de contacts, communication, conseils. On se sent un peu seul dans ce domaine mais cela peut plaire à certains.
Je n'ai pas aimé voir les 2 petits enfants de la maison embêter en permanence un jeune chien attaché. C'était vraiment désagréable !!

Amazing accomodation and the swimmingpool is the best as it can get very hot in Sigiriya. Very good, local breakfast was served every morning. The location was perfect as well - it is possible to walk to the city centre during the day. I would definitely recommend!

Todo! Nuestra cabaña estaba limpísima y era preciosa. La piscina con el agua también muy limpia y una temperatura super agradable. El personal atento y siempre dispuesto a ayudar. Una maravilla! No podría recomendarlo más!

Eine super schöne Anlage mit sauberem Poolbereich. Die Zimmer sind sehr groß. Die Familie der Unterkunft ist super lieb und versucht zu helfen wo es nur geht. Uns wurde auch ein Tuktuk Fahrer organisiert. Sie kocht einige Abende selber und man kann sich dazu anmelden. Schöne Atmosphäre und leckeres Essen.
Gute Lage um Dambulla und Sigiriya zu erkunden.
Die Zimmer sind ein bisschen dunkel und einfach - es reicht aber vollkommen. Ansonsten können wir nichts negatives berichten.

We loved this place! Huge simple cabanas with comfy beds, lovely gardens, clean pool & peacocks! Such a relaxing place and we couldn’t believe the value for money.
The family hosts were so nice and we had some delicious breakfasts here!
Nada - we wish we stayed an extra night

Great location in the nature, spacious villa, nice swimming pool
There were 2 cockroaches and a wizard in the room. Although its probably easy that they get in, stuff should do more to not allow it.

Prachtig huisje midden in de natuur.
Niet erg centraal gelegen. We namen een tuktuk naar de restaurantjes.

Can’t write enough about the place.

The room was spacious, clean and very comfortable! The pool was so big and lovely with great views. Breakfast was hearty and delicious!! Ruwin helped us organise an elephant tour for a very good price, and advised us on lots of local things - a present, helpful and friendly host. Thanks so much for having us !

Ruwan and his family who run the hotel are simply the best! So kind and helpful in every single way, could not have done more for us. Beautiful and peaceful location just a very short drive from Sigiriya Rock. Would absolutely recommend this clean, tranquil spot!

Nice place
But food is okay.

The host was very helpful and genuine, he helped us with everything we needed including transport, dinner on the first night at nearby restaurant where the waiter was very helpful and food delicious, he also organised a trip to Sigiriya rock where the tuk-tuk driver waited for us. The host recommended and organised the best safari where we saw between 100-150 elephants! If we had gone to the park we first wanted to go to we may have missed this amazing experience. The host also gave us good tips and rates which was reassuring. The accommodation is spacious and clean and very calm and the surroundings are peaceful. The breakfast was very worth the money, huge portion and delicious!
Nothing- we had a great time.

very tranquil, lovely pool area and excellent location. The cottages are massive so much space. We wished we had spent another night here
the wi fi didn’t work at all which wasn’t great

Great pool area with sun loungers, perfect for relaxing.
Ruwan was fantastic at organising all our transport and events, can highly recommend the elephant safari and going for dinner at his brothers restaurant.
Very helpful staff and great breakfast!
Nothing - do need to tuk tuk to the rock / town but not very far.

Massive room and felt high quality throughout. The pool is great and location is also great. Quiet and close enough to restaurants. Owners were extremely helpful and booked us tuktuks into town whenever we wanted (approx £1-2 each way for a tuktuk).

We stayed in a brilliantly- designed cottage, clean comfortable and with a bath tub. The large swimming pool was very welcome after the heat of the safari park and Lion Rock. The owner and his wife were very friendly, provided great breakfasts and cooked an excellent dinner for us one night.

we enjoyed our stay at Sigirya Water Cottage.
the host was very friendly and eager to help. He gave some good advice about a safari in the neighbourhood at a normal price!
we enjoyed the pool (which is perfectly clean and nice).
the room is big and has a lovely balcony. unfortunately (due to the rain) we weren’t able to use it that often.
the food was very nice and looked like typical sri lankan.
not much to say as a negative point. Only (little) thing is that the restaurant looks a bit desolate .

Beautiful place with everything you need! Huge rooms, hot bath, beautiful surroundings. In the evening you can see a lot of fireflies, and it’s beautiful 😍

Superb place to stay, seriously don’t hesitate to book!
We were only there for one night (unfortunately!) but Ruwan and his wife and their team made us extremely welcome and offered fantastic home cooked food for dinner and breakfast.
Seriously great value and family run.
All facilities as described and as shown in the pictures and the pool is super clean and well maintained.
Away from it all and lots of birds/nature to enjoy including the amazing fireflies :-)
Thanks Ruwan and team, we would definitely come back again if in the area.
Really nothing to not like in our opinion!
