Cheap hotels in Deniyaya

Amazing location on top of a river. Beautiful houses secluded and one with the nature. Extremely friendly and helpful family that will welcome you and make you feel at ease as they will take care of everything you need. Very good homemade fresh breakfast and the cutest family you will meet in Sri Lanka.

location was excellent. Loved the mountain view from the pool area. Love the food and prices were reasonable. this could be the best villa in that area. Staff was very helpful and attending quickly to all our needs.

The room was clean and spacious and had a beautiful balcony overlooking the river. Great spot for bird watching. The host family was great! Excellent and knowledgeable rainforest guide, and his parents who ran the kitchen cooked amazing meals. The food was outstanding!

My family had the best time in Forest Nest with Saman and his wife and child. His wife cooked the best meals for us; Saman leads two tours in the SINHARAJA forest . One is a night walk that is 3-4 hours long ! The other is a day tour that is 5-6 hours long . He helped my son tremendously and didn’t charge my son at all. His family is genuinely helpful and kind. Nothing is too much trouble and they are always there when we need them . Saman is also a bird guide who took my husband on two walks to spot birds. The cabin is well-appointed and has the best view in the area ! The shower is hot and there is a fan . We stayed two nights and this is certainly NOT enough .

The hospitality and friendliness is better than I have ever experienced. Location next to the rainforest. Breakfast. Environment.

Absolutely an amazing place to stay and an unforgettable experience in the forest. The manager Lakshan made all the effort to make sure the journey was smooth, and you feel very much welcomed by the staff. Great ambiance, nice restaurant and amazing location. we had a day trip in the forest guided by Dumindu, who was so kind and knowledgeable. All was amazing.

Stunningly beautiful location with extremely helpful staff. Wonderful Sri Lankan hospitality with terrific home cooked meals.

“I had an amazing stay at this cabana. The place was very clean, comfortable, and peaceful. The food was delicious and everything was well prepared. The owner was extremely kind, friendly, and very helpful during my stay. He also arranged a jungle tour for me, and it was a wonderful experience. Additionally, he safely dropped me at the airport, which I truly appreciated. Everything was perfectly organized and made my trip very enjoyable. I will definitely come back again someday. Highly recommended!”❤️

The owner is super helpful and friendly, help us with everything we needed. The terrace outside is nice to sit and chill and just watch some animals goes by like birds, squirrels, mongooses and some more. Mahesh the owner said he can also make us food if we'd like that but we ate outside in a local place. Really amqzing place to stay if youre planning to go see Sinharaja rain forest. The woner will help you figure out the busses to go there if you want to save some money and not pay for a tuktuk

The owner is a guide of Sinharaja forest. I join a tour with him and he is so professional and knowledgeable! The tour was amazing. We walked in the forest and heard birds singing. Also captured lots of photos of endemic species, showered under waterfall, enjoyed fish therapy and bathed in pool. And then after tour, he prepared delicious dinner for us. Highly recommend everyone who wanna visit Sinharaja forest stay here.

Environment is really good and beautiful. I like most is environment.

We felt right at home, thanks to the lovely family and great home cooked food. The pool was lovely and the room with balcony was a perfect spot to enjoy the breeze and birds ❤️

The lady that hosted us was really friendly and had a very nice conversation with us. She offered advice on local hikes and even gave us small gifts upon departure. The hotel is surrounded by a lot of flora and you can constantly hear the calming sound of the river.

Great location for nature lovers. Nice view over the valley below and the mountain above, especially on sunrise. Very friendly staff that helped us a lot. One of them is a guide and took us to the sliding rock, a natural waterslide that the kids loved. Then he took my son and husband on an exciting night excursion. The day after we went to the rainforest for the whole day and he found a lot of interesting animals for us to see. The food was great and plentiful, the whole family was happy. The hotel is just next to a bus stop.

we had a wonderful stay here, the location is amazing, so beautiful, and we saw so many animals just in front of our door! The hosts were also very kind and cook delicious

Very calm place. Rooms are small but value for money.

The guides were incredibly knowledgeable, helping us spot rare birds and understand the rich biodiversity of the area. After a day of trekking, the swimming pool was a refreshing treat, and the peaceful garden offered the perfect spot to unwind.

Excepional hospitality, personal service and divine location

Checkin was nice, the food was delicious and the open shower was the best! :)

Wonderful location in the midst of the rainforest. Food was fresh and tasty. The lovely host Karina is very accommodating and can organise anything for you from transportation to tours. The river freshwater pool is very refreshing after a hike or trek in the forest.

Super nice place. Good place to do a walking safari because it is only 10 minutes from the entrance. The river in front of the house is perfect for swimming. The beds are amazing. And the staff will provide you with every needs.

These kinds of homestays are the best out there: reasonable price, authentic food, real people who actually do their best to make you feel welcome. It was a great stay. I looked forward every night to sitting on that deck and hearing the nature, and being part of the village while reading my book and enjoying the view. Tons of places to plug in things, and I didn’t need to use the AC once. The hot water lasted a good amount of time, the facilities were clean, and it was such a cool place to go to. I am sure I would do it again. Those louder hotels, or where there are lots of guests, are okay and have their moments, but here I felt privileged to just have my own little room in the middle of nature. It even poured rain for a good 40 minutes and the room was bone dry. Husband Kasun and wife Thamili (I hope I spelled names correctly) have two sweet kids and are quintessential Sri Lankan -full of warmth and heart - and I totally wish these guys all the best. I think most people out there who want a place in nature and have their own little place for a few days or more will be satisfied. It certainly was worth it, and I paid much less than a high-class hotel - better than a lot of hotels I need to travel to in Canada.
