This was one of the best places we've been to on our trip to Sri Lanka. It's in the middel of nature, there is a beautiful waterfall where you can dip into the water and even get fish therapy about a 5min walk from the Hotel. The glass bungalow was incredible, the room was clean, very comfortable and there is a mini fridge with snacks and beverages. Apart from the room, the host and his wife are lovely people, so friendly, warm and welcoming. We had a tasty welcome drink, then they showed us the way to the waterfall, before dinner, the host took us on a little walk to see the surrounding area and after dinner he took us on a little night walk around the house to see the little animals living there. He gave us much information about plants and animals and also organized a guided trip to the rainforest the following day. His wife prepares breakfast and dinner herself and it was by far the best we've eaten on our trip. The accomodation is not easy to find and to access if you are not travelling by car, but you can inform the host and they organize a pickup at a reasonable price. This wasn't a negative point for us as we enjoy the sounds of nature, but if you're a light sleeper it's fair to mention that the sound of the waterfall is quite loud and you can also hear the frogs and circadas quite a lot. That's definitely a pro when you, like us, like to be surrounded by the sounds of nature but may be a con if you want to be in a more quiet place. We really recommend to visit this beautiful place when you are travelling in the Sinharaja area! Thank you so much for everything!! :)

Wonderful host! So caring and nice. The host texted me before our arrival and sent one of the staff mambers to meet us and help us to reach our cozy house. The property was so clean and with an outstanding view. We did some lunch and dinner there and the food was perfect (coffee as well)! You can ask some fruit plates and juice - it was so fresh. We spent our weekend just enjoying the view and the environment but there were nice routes to hike and explore the nature.

Excellent location with bungalows overlooking the forest. Nice restaurant and tasty included breakfast. They organize guided tours in the forest. The rooms are very large and clean and the staff was efficient and friendly. The swimming pool is definitely worth it with the view.

Very quiet, peaceful and relaxing accommodation. We also went on a bush walking tour with a local guide and saw many native animals. The staff were all friendly, accommodating and incredibly helpful.

Really charming 'homestay' style place run by very nice family. Our little house had absolutely incredible views over the forest. The hosts arranged our visit to the forest and the guide. Nothing fancy here, just simple,clean and comfortable accommodation. It's a bit hard to find but the host came out on this scooter and met our tuktuk driver who was lost, so all was well. I recommend staying here.

The staff were very welcoming and professional. Despite the fact that we were the only guests at the hotel, and it seemed like a very quiet period, everything was functional and the staff were prepared to fulfil all of our needs and wants. We asked for extra spice in our evening meals, and it was done. We asked for eggs a particular way in the morning, and it was done. The wildlife in the grounds and around the hotel was an excellent introduction to our trip to the rainforest.

We had a lovely stay in this beautiful Bungalow during our visit to Sinharaja rain forest. Bungalow Manager, Ishan together with the chef and butler ensured we had an amazing experience with a very attentive service. The food was amazing and the Sri Lankan cooking demo followed by delicious lunch in the garden is a must try. The bungalow itself had a very luxurious set up and beautiful interior with views to die for. We wished we could've stayed longer at this beautiful place.

    The Eco Lodge in the forest was incredible; the pictures on the post don't do it proper justice. The staff (Husband and Wife team) were kind, thoughtful locals, so they knew a lot the area and cared about our stay. They communicated as needed and prepared us for a successful stay and hike in the forest with a knowledgeable guide. Ohh, and the food at their restaurant was some of the best food we had in the country!

    This was my fourth visit to the Rainforest Lodge and I always enjoy being there surrounded by jungle vegetation and the sounds of nature. It's a quiet and relaxing place with lots of birdlife and monkeys, and a good base to visit Sinharaja for jungle trekking. The food is very good and the staff very attentive.

    Don't miss out on ordering Mama's Sri Lankan Curry for dinner, it's the best! The views are stunning and the lodge is only a 3 minute walk to the Rainforest. It's a superb day out.

    The family is really helpful and supportive. The spacious and well designed lodges are beautifully located amidst a tropical garden offering nice and isloated views of the surrounding nature. A place to calm down. The family restaurant offers nice authentic local cuisine. The swimming pool is a sweet extra. The entrance to the rainforest is very nearby, so definitely, a great place to stay with a high *come again* factor :-)
