This place is amazing! You can see how much love Errol has put into this place and the love he and the staff have for nature. We enjoyed 2 nights at the property and were treated like family right away. We did a safari in the afternoon to Wasgamuwa and saw a big family of elephants. Errol also knows how to cook and made us some delicious vegan meals. Come to this place if you love animals, tranquility and learning from the staff as they are super knowledgeable! A true heaven and not your average tourist hotel! You are surrounded by scientist who also help out the local community and really contribute greatly to the villages and animal conservation! Thanks again for the amazing stay!

Lovely simple home stay made extra special with the kind host and great safari in very close by Wasgamuwa national park arranged by our host. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and visit! The host cooked delicious dinner and breakfast for us and even sourced a couple cold beer for after our safari. The value for money was excellent and it was lovely to relax outside the home stay and chat with the host who spoke excellent English . We saw 25 elephants, atleast 15 different bird species and mongoose on our safari. So happy to base ourselves at Kandyan Rest versus travelling further to do safari as we were only 10 minutes from entrance to the park.

The host and the location! Located right outside of Wasgamua National Park, we were surrounded by nature. We spent every morning birdwatching from the deck and easily record 20+ birds in one sitting. The breakfasts were HUGE and delicious, made by the host’s mom. Supun was a great host who has a good eye for wildlife. He took us on an evening half day safari and we spotted elephants, jackals, and many bird species. This safari was cheaper and better than any safari at a more popular park. We only ran into 2 other jeeps the entire trip. Supun also took us on many walks where we met other families in the village and got to experience Sri Lankan hospitality.

I only stayed one night at this property but it is a beautiful property with great service. It’s first class all the way. Modern rooms, great staff, amazing views and close to safaris and other activities that one may be interested in. You’ll definitely get your money’s worth at the Lavendish Wild Safari!

We had a wonderful stay here. The place is beautiful — clean, tasteful, and surrounded by rice fields and stunning nature. The staff were incredibly kind and welcoming, and they prepared delicious, generous meals for us. Everything feels new and very well cared for. It’s also conveniently located close to the Mini World’s End viewpoint. The only small downside was that the Wi-Fi wasn’t always stable, but that felt insignificant compared to the comfort and beauty of the place.

CRYSTAL RIVERSTON DECK is located in Matale. Featuring room service, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace.

The place is nice and secluded in nature. Simple, clean and comfortable accommodation in the jungle which fits the experience. The food (breakfast, lunch and dinner) is plentiful and you will not go hungry! The walk to Meemure and the lakegala view is around 30-45 minutes on the road. Meemure does not have a village centre or hub, it's comprised of house and guest houses scattered along the road (there is one shop and an ATM, so don't expect cafes and restaurants). So staying here rather that Meemure "centre" makes no difference to the experience, as you will spend your evening in a guest house. The family are communicative on WhatsApp and help you with hiking guides and transport. I arrived by bus and they were waiting by the road to guide me to the property (I do not think I would have found it on my own in the dark as it's set away from the road). Amazing stay, thank you so much for the experience!

Located in Riverston in Matale, just 0.6 mi before the Riverston junction, The Riverston Grand provides accommodations with a restaurant, free private parking, a shared lounge and a garden.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Riverston Grand. The view was absolutely priceless! Both breakfast and dinner were delicious, and the staff was very kind. We had the green room, I think the other rooms have an even better view.

The Gammaduwa Bungalow, nestled in the serene hills, offers a magical retreat amidst lush tea gardens. I drove a tuk-tuk, and while the climb was steep, the destination was truly worth it. I took a wrong turn along the way and got slightly lost, but that’s the best thing that can happen to you in Sri Lanka. 🙂 Upon arrival, you’re greeted by tastefully decorated interiors and the inviting aroma of sumptuous food. The fresh air and tranquil surroundings create a soul-cleansing experience that lingers long after your stay. The excellent service adds to the charm, making every moment feel special. At Gammaduwa Bungalow, time seems to stand still, inviting you to cast away your cares and immerse yourself in the natural beauty and serenity of this hidden gem.
