Firstly, the view from the room is out of the world. The cloud was in the balcony in the afternoon. Unbelievable view even from the bed. The staffs are very cordial and supportive. Food was good. A must stay in Kandy.

We enjoyed everything about this stay! For us this place was great to explore sights nearby Kandy, as well as a region around Sigiriya. Afterwards it was pleasant to return to the hotel and have a rest away from noise and rush. There were everything we needed in the room. Dinners and breakfasts were delightful. There is plenty of wildlife around the hotel that you can meet. We found management of the hotel very professional and attentive. It is impossible to describe all about the villa and facilities of the hotel in short review. We can just advise to stay here if you are traveling in Sri Lanka.

Loved loved LOVED our stay here! And wish we could of stayed longer. This is a 5 star hotel and still it is amazing value for money! The views from the pool were incredible, the staff were lovely. We were very lucky to be upgraded to the pool suite. The resort felt like an exclusive country club - although it is located 40 mins from Kandy, they still had activities on offer. It is super quiet, peaceful and was very romantic for couples. We also got free pick up and drop off to the city which was very helpful and appreciated. Loved the variety at the buffet breakfast!! We would love to be back :)

All five-star hotels in Kandy

Looking for a five-star hotel?

When the accommodation is just as important as the destination, a five-star stay should give that extra ‘wow’ factor as you enter the lobby. As well as offering the kind of service to make you feel like royalty, you’ll usually find highly rated on-site spas, gourmet restaurants and top-of-the-line beds you won’t want to get out of.
