I love this place, not just because of the elephants, but because of its beauty and the people. Especially Andrew and Shalika, who were, and are, extremely kind, attentive, and helpful. I will return whenever I can and I highly recommend it.

Excellent place, spacious rooms, with a lot of vegetation. Anushka is very kind, as is his family. He is a very good guide, he knows a lot about his country and its tourist attractions. If you have any questions, I recommend that you ask anything, he will help you. It was an incredible day in their cottage and the typical Sri Lanka breakfast was amazing 🤩🤩 I will back , I’m sure 🫶🏻☺️

I had a very comfortable stay at Suwani Pinnawala Homestay…. the room was clean, spacious, and well-furnished, with a spotless bathroom…. the hosts were exceptionally kind, especially the lady of the house, who went out of her way to prepare special vegetarian meals for me…. breakfast was excellent, and the homestay is conveniently close to the elephant bathing grounds. Highly recommended!

We loved our stay with Ravi and his family. The room was comfortable with a lovely balcony. Everyone was so nice and welcoming! We also had a delicious dinner and breakfast. It was a great place to be with our kids as they played games with the kids at the house. On our way out, we stopped in Gampola to visit Ravi’s spice garden, which was a real treat. We highly recommend!

They are just the best! The hosts are super professional and extremely caring and hospitable! It felt like being with my family, whatever you need they take good care of their guests; if you need guidance, recommendation or transportation, just ask and they are here for it. I enjoyed my stay, loved the people their and I will definitely be back. BTW they have other hostels in Sri Lanka, ask about them.

The peacock village is set in the jungle in shipping containers, just a short tuk tuk ride to the Pinnawala elephant bathing. Tuk tuk rides are supplied by the accommodation. The staff were exceptional. Andrew was welcoming from when we 1st met. I celebrated my birthday and he arranged a birthday breakfast for me. His other staff were also exceptional. 100% recommend this place to stay you will not be disappointed. Breakfast was buffet style offered different cuisine for cultures. Best breakfast we have had on our stay in Sri Lanka.

From reception to our bedroom was a worm welcome. Shalika and her colleagues were beyond our expectations. She even upgraded our bedroom to a river view bedroom with an open balcony, which was fantastic. Dinner and breakfast were excellent . Delicious food we all enjoyed with happy faces. We also enjoyed looking at elephants and their bath . My son was overwhelmed by seeing elephants in real life. Overall, we highly recommend Pinnalanda Grand Hotel is the best place to stay for a vacation and elephant bath view.

We had an amazing stay in Hotel Pinnalanda. The view is breathtaking! Breakfast was really good and the staff was so lovely and friendly. Especially Andrew (that’s how we called him) from the tour desk was such a lovely helpful guy! Thank you Andrew, you did a great job! But all the staff was amazing and made our holiday!! I can really recommend to also use the pool when the elephants are out, that was amazing!

The accommodation had a beautiful view of elephants, so it's definitely worth going there. However, I think it's not worth staying longer than 1 day. Breakfast was great, and another positive was the fantastic pool with a view of the bathing elephants.

The staff were excellent and couldn’t have been more helpful during our stay. The Accomodation was great, our room had a full kitchenette with a little sitting area and a large bedroom and bathroom. We had a lovely porch overlooking the rice fields. The breakfast was amazing at the main hotel and the view from the pool was truly spectacular.
