What a unique experience. I stayed in the Family Room with Garden View and I felt completely immersed in the rainforest there. It was raining when I was there and it felt really cozy. The host, Ravindra, was kind, welcoming and very helpful. He organized for an amazing female guide for me in Sinharaja, as well as transport there and to my next destination. His mother cooked delicious dinners and breakfasts, and even a packed lunch for my day trip. The pool was a great bonus - I had a much-needed fresh dip following my hike.

Good welcome, Location is very clam and quite, Food they served was delicious, Cleanness is good. Overall good place to stay.

The family is lovely and the food is amazing. The location is perfect, quiet, close to the jungle and and just next to a bus station if you need to go to the city

Everything was fabulous the breakfast was super delicious and the view of the room was stunning.

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

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.

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 .

Good privacy place, friendly staff, nice location, value for the moneyl

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

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

We stayed at the Glitz Marriott for one night. Our wonderful host and guide, Ananda, gave us such a memorable experience in the short time we spent there. We arrived around noon and Ananda, as our guide, gave us the most amazing 4hr tour of the rainforest which was amazing!!! After that, he prepared the most delicious dinner with many dishes. Our room was spacious and very clean. When visiting Sinharaja Rain Forest, stay at the Glitz Marriott. Ananda, thank you so much for the memories!! Lonnie

The staff were fantastic, keeping in touch constantly before, during and even after my stay and ensuring I knew what was going on. I did a night walk and morning exploration walk in the forest, both were excellent! The guides were informative, knowledgeable and always trying to make sure I got the most out of the experience. I would 100% recommend staying here to anybody. The food was also incredible, so much flavour and a good amount of options!!

The attention and care of the hosting family who cared for every need, and made any effort to make the stay comfortable, with a lot of kindness. Amazing breakfast was included. Great home cooked dinners by request, reasonably priced. Arranged knowledgeable, amazing guide for the rainforest hike, reasonably priced. This guesthouse is located nearby to the forest edge. That made amazing birds and wildlife be seen just from the nice garden porch or when walking the village road. However, don't expect any 'tourist scene' nearby. That village was so peaceful. Had great night sleep on the comfortable bed, protected effectively by net from bugs.

The room is nice and very new! The location was perfect - really loved it. Host is very nice, friendly and helpful, arranged everything perfectly, highly recommend
