It’s a property with a soul, with decoration linked to some Sri Lanka famous movies. Rooms are great and all have a nice view to the big garden, pool and lake at the end. The restaurant is perfect, the hygiene is top, the quality of the food is great. People are super friendly. There is a great spa too with variety of massages. Ideal place to just stay and relax and/or visit some great places around. Very well decorated. A place where we will return.

Vajira and his family created a beautiful green oasis of hospitality. The room is spacious and very clean with a super comfortable mattress. We added an amazing breakfast. Vajira helped us getting organized and was there at any time to support on the most friendly way. Also the pickup from the airport was flawless. The feeling is more like a homestay with perfect privacy rather than a hotel/resort which we enjoyed a lot.

What made our stay really memorable is the staff, from front desk agents, to waiters at the restaurants, to the guys driving us around with buggies, to people servicing our room. They have been amazingly kind and hospitable with us. It is difficult to pick one in particular, but if we have to name one we would say Kusal, who on our last day came especially to pick us from the lake and drove us back to the reception. Not only he gave us a small tour but also told us lots of interesting facts about the fishermen and the animals living in the area around the lak

From the beginning, the location was exceptional. Where the hotel was located was very nice. The view of the hotel facing the rock was stunning, pool view from the bar was exceptional. The buffet was great. The dinner was a bit over priced, however the service was great. The location was perfect for us to go for an early morning hike to the the Lion Rock. The breakfast buffet was great, very authentic. Highly recommend.

The service is absolutely outstanding. Of course the view from the room is breathtaking, with a bath overlooking the lake. The pool is fantastic, with a view of the mountain range. The bed!!! Best in Sri Lanka in my opinion. Everything else was perfect, the room is great, spacious and super clean, the staff is amazing. It's a treat to stay here.

The water villas at Liyya were fantastic. They were really spacious with a big bathroom with really comfortable beds and luxurious linen, we slept really well! The staff were very accommodating and looked after us brilliantly, allowing us early check in after a long flight from London and a 3 hour drive from Colombo. The dining room overlooked the lake which was lovely.

A beautiful hotel with superb views of Sigirya Rock. The hotel employees, in particular Tharashi at reception and Lal the room boy, are highly recommended for their hospitality. Breakfast is plentiful with choice of European and local food. Cleaniness excellent. Hotel decor very pleasing to the eye. 5 star service in this highly recommended hotel. Ideally located to visit all the sites in the area including Sigiriya Rock, Minneriya National Park and the ancient ruins at Sigiriya among so many other things to see.
