Unique experience in an amazing location!
Fantastic experience to sleep in a tree house. Very special to hear the jungle sounds and waking up with a view on the jungle. Staff was super friendly and helpful. Good breakfast.
It is unavoidable when sleeping in nature but all the frogs and animals (insects) were a bit scary for my youngest daughter 😊.

Je recommande + ! Merci
Location au milieu de la forêt, proche du rocher du lion et d’autre site à visiter, une vrai connexion avec la nature, le personnel est très accueillant, le petit déjeuner était très bon
C’est un peu humide de dormir à l’extérieur, les bruits de la forêt et des animaux ne m’ont pas dérangé mais peuvent déranger certaines personnes dans leur sommeil

Back to nature
We loved the remote aspect of the place, you really are in the middle of nature, we were woken by monkey feet on the roof and one peering under the canopy at us. The kitchen were able to adapt the menu to be vegan and we had a delicious dinner and breakfasts. There are lots of activities that can be arranged, unfortunately the weather stopped us, but this can’t be helped after all you’re in the middle of the jungle. We were also able to get a short tuk tuk ride into the main town, we were advised not to walk after dark as there are wild elephants in the area. We would recommend doing the short hike up nearby Pidurangala rock for sunrise, this was incredible. Total relaxation and an experience we will never forget.
Not a criticism as it was fine for us, but the open air aspect of the rooms can make it very noisy when it is raining hard and early hours of the morning with bird noise. We loved this but if you sleep light you may want to bring ear plugs.

Back of beyond is truly at one with nature..An amazing experience..
The setting was absolutely beautiful nestled in the jungle with a beautiful little sign showing the way. This is a hidden gem, the only noise was the abundance of wildlife, butterflies, birds, monkeys-at night it was a beautiful sound with fireflies lighting up the tree house around you. The wooden structure itself was truly part of the natural setting a real tree house-you felt at one with nature but with all the facilities from the inside outside shower designed in a modern yet rustic way- we were with our two older teenagers who were blown away by its setting. It had exceptional bedding and is a really big size space- ours had two double beds on opposite sides a seating area and a single bed with a net balcony to lay on and gaze up at the canopy teaming with wildlife-gorgeous. This really is an experience in nature- the real deal. The food is fantastic and the setting for eating and hanging out is rustic and charming. The lovely staff and managers go out of their way to explain and show you the wildlife, they arranged a safari to Kaudulla which they recommended and is was fantastic the lovely local guide was brilliant, we saw so much wildlife including elephants ...we were on our own for most of the trip- such a memorable experience. The location couldn't be better as you can walk up to Pidurangala which has incredible views and is a ten minute walk away. Sigirya is just a small quiet tut tut ride away . Back of beyond is at it says! and exceeded all our expectations- Thank you so much. Katharine, Paul and two older teenagers.
