Nothing

Friendly family and amazing food! Just 5 minutes to Pidueangala rock and 15 min walk to Lion’s rock. Best thing of our stay is the family, they arranged us everything and made a special dinner and breakfast. Quiet position. Highly recommended!

Very close to the Pidurangala Rock, so amazing location if you want to climb it especially during sunrise or sunset. Without asking, the owner accompanied our walk to the starting point in the morning since it is a known elephant road. The host and his family are super kind, make delicious and extensive breakfast and we ate dinner here as well (the curry was good!!). The room and bathroom were clean and spacious. And there was a big terrace and enough parking space for our tuktuk. In the area there is a lot to do, and takes most of the time only 5 minutes by tuktuk (Lion Rock, swimming pool, wood carving workshop, shops etc).

Nothing bad to say. I could stay there for weeks

You have to stay here. It’s really peaceful and just 5 min from pidurangala rock. The owners are so kind, it’s like staying with your parents. They helped us a lot and arranged a taxi and tuktuk. The man even walked us safely to the starting point of the hike early in the morning. The lady is a great chef and makes sure you have more than enough to eat. You can enjoy her tasty breakfast with a peaceful view of the rock. They are both super lovely and nice to have a chat with. Rooms are really clean and the bed is comfortable. Would absolutely stay here again!

Located far from main restaurants but we knew that when booking. Just worth noting. Couldn’t get a pick me tuktuk to pick us up but a car did

Very lovely garden setting. Host kindly walked us to the entrance to Pidurangala rock as we were walking for sunrise. Great location for sunrise hike.

Airconditioning was a bit too cold.

Very kind people. Help you where they can. Food was also very nice. And rooms were definitely clean.

No complaints!

Hosts were so lovely and helpful, made sure they took us on our way if walking in the dark (which we did for a sunrise walk!). So easy to get to Pidurangala and to Sigirya early morning or during the day

Couldn’t explore the tree house as it was under renovation

Neat and clean space very close to the Pidurangala Rock. Only 3 mins walk to the start point of the rock. Its in the heart of the jungle so need to be careful at night if you are traveling alone, because of movements of elephants. The hosts were great and also provided us with good breakfast. Do explore the nearby restaurant, they serve tasty food.

This family is amazing. They take care of you like their child. In the morning we went to Pidurangala for sunrise and Host was walking behind us(stay is located in the jungle) with the light to make sure we arrive safe to the rock.

The stuff were super friendly, they helps us organise a Safari trip to see elephants, location perfect for hiking to Pidurangala. Breakfast was tasty!

host was surprised to see us as we had booked only an hr beforehand but all was well and had a cup of coffee made for us in no time . Unfortunately the option for dinner was not offered but she walked us only 50m down the road to a family run restaurant which was good enough for our needs. Room was fine, clean with AC . struggled with the mosquito net due to bad positioning (needs to be sited centrally over bed ) and AC blows directly onto the bed so took a while to figure out how to not have the net blowing directly onto the body …. this was the only issue we had . Everything else was great , the hubby was a diamond and a true gentleman who walked us to the start of the mini hike up the rock at 5.15am to ensure we were safe ( elephants ) please remember to give a tip for this kind service …. Apparently we were the first in years to do so which we think is bad form ! breakfast was delicious and filling and set us up for our cycle onwards . Our host even drove his bike a few km down the road to catch us up to give us a plug adapter we had left in the room ! what a star . the location is fantastic if intending to climb the pidurangala rock for sunrise and unmatched vista of the more well known Lion rock . everyone else was having to catch a taxi or tuk tuk from town to the starting point and for us it was literally a 5 min stroll ! town is obviously a few km away so if wanting the nightlife then factor in a tuk tuk ride there and back .

Beautiful place and very friendly hosts. Breakfast was great, also the location is perfect for exploring Pidurangala rock and Lion rock:)

The owners are super friendly. Location is in the nature next to thr Pidurangala Rock and Lion Rock! Food was amazing. Best kottu we had of the trip!

In all honesty it was just such amazing value for money and location that we cannot complain about anything

Our first home stay and value for money was amazing. The couple were lovely and kind and helpful. They put themselves out for us to the extent of getting up at 5 to show us the way by torch light to the mountain. They provided a lovely breakfast and dinner was really fantastic. Lovely home cooked SriLanksn food.

I'm not going to say everything was perfect in this place, the only thing inconvenient is that there is wild elephant near the neighborhood, so it is not recommended to walk around after dark

Apparently the landlord is not good at photography, I chose this homestay simply because it is close to the lion rock. But when I got to the place, it is a very beautiful and clean yard, much more beautiful than the photo uploaded by the landlord. (Please look at photo I uploaded) Although the landlord was not so good at English, but both of them were patient and communicated with us very well. The landlord accompanied us to the foot of the Pindurangala view point since there are wild elephant during dawn, every time we returned to the homestay, landlady was waiting, smiling happily, treating us with three cups of cold green orange juice. My wife said during the whole Sri Lanka trip, this is the only place that she felt like wanting to go back to. The landlord helped arrange the safari to Eco park, the taxi to Polonaruwa, all the driver they introduced to us are so nice and worth trusting.

Sweet and helpful owners. Short walk to pidurangala (and sigiriya if you plan on doing both). Helpful with dinner and breakfast.

Stayed in February 2025

Clean comfortable homestay in a fantastic peaceful location a few minutes walk from Pidurangala rock which makes a climb for sunset or sunrise very easy. The hosts were lovely and the breakfast tasty & plentiful

We loved everything! The location is perfect, very close to Pidurangala rock and walking distance to Sigiriya. What makes it so special are the hosts: they are so nice! We had also a delicious dinner and breakfast home cooked. I totally recommend this place to anyone that wants to experience the real Sri Lanka. Thank you for making us feel at home!

By far the friendliest people! The couple that runs the place are so welcoming, always willing to help and provide you with anything that can make your stay more comfortable. The best kottu we had in Sri Lanka! The green orange juice is a must! And all made with love and served with a huge smile! It really felt like home! Another big asset is the location: just 5 minutes walking distance from Piduringala rock, 20 minutes away from the entrance of Sigiriya site. Super quite, definitely NOT TOURISTY (far from the busy area). We can't thank you enough for this unforgettable stay! Take care and see you next time!

Very nice and quiet place, attractively situated between Sigiriya and Pidurangala. The owner was super nice and we had a delicious breakfast. We arrived with the bikes and there was also space to store them safely. Highly recommended!

Nothing

This is the best guest house in our journey. We hoped to stay longer. Even though this stay is surrounded by nature, there were no inconvenient. (For example, hot water was available, and the room was clean.) The owners served perfect Kottu for dinner and took us to Pirdungala Rock to see the sunrise!

Lovely family, helpful, good place to climb the rocks! Delicious breakfast included.
