    Nothing! Everything was amazing!

    Do not hesitate to book this. We had a fabulous stay at Lily’s Garden Resort. It was so peaceful. I really enjoyed reading on the deck chairs on the patio of their gorgeous garden. The place was spotlessly clean. The room was spacious & the bed was comfortable. Lily & her husband were really friendly & helpful. We had a delicious breakfast each day. This property is in a great location too. Very close to the bus stop. We hired bikes & cycled to the rocks. Highly recommend

    Lily's house is in the middle of the jungle and she and her family are unique and amazing. Thank you for three special nights where we felt welcomed from the first moment until the last.

    There is a strong smell in the bathroom. Not so bad that you could not stay but it is there.

    We loved the family and the host. Also the breakfast she made was the most delicious we had in our trip. They are super helpful and friendly and the room has a private entrance. They can also rent a scooter directly.

    We loved it here!! The room is very spacious and comfortable and there is hot water which is a bonus! There is also a patio where you can relax and enjoy Lily’s beautiful garden. The family were so welcoming, providing us a fresh mango juice on arrival. They are such a kind and beautiful family and we enjoyed spending time with you! We also had breakfast included every morning which was lovely! If we are ever in Sigiryia again we will definitely stay here! Thank you

    Everything was perfect.

    The property is located in the djungle, very close to the bus station (about 3 minutes), as well as to the main attractions in sigirya. The family running the resort is incredibly warm, kind and we felt very welcome. They helped us with renting a scooter, and when we had problems with the tyres they were very helpful and payed for the reparation. The breakfast and dinner they cooked was also incredibly delicious. The room is spacious and clean ans there’s also a terrace with chairs, which was nice.

    The owner and his parents are supper gentle and always take great care of us. They weren’t expecting us until we arrived, but they quickly prepared the room. It was actually our mistake, as we had to change the dates just a day before.

    One of our favourite stays!! The host family were so friendly and welcoming and tried very hard to make us as comfortable as possible throughout our stay. We extended our stay for another night because we liked it so much. We are sorry we forgot to take photos off the room as we left in a bit of a hurry🥲 but the room was spotless and smelt great! The house was tucked away in a secluded jungle like neighbourhood and an easy 15 minute walk to the “city centre” The room is attached to the outside of the main family house but has its own entrance/bathroom and felt very private. Shakee’s English is also very good and she provided us with all the information we needed regarding the local area. We got a tasty fresh watermelon juice on arrival and also Shakee also cooked us some delicious food. The devilled chicken we had for dinner was some of the best we tried! For the price we didn’t find anything else this good during our 2 months here in Sri Lanka!

    The bed was a little uncomfortable, and no hot water. Very minor things when the price is so cheap!
