Situated in Sigiriya, 17 km from Sigiriya Rock, Amba Yaalu - Thema Collection "The first women-led hotel in Sri Lanka" features accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a fitness centre and a garden. This 5-star hotel offers room service, a 24-hour front desk and free WiFi. The accommodation offers evening entertainment and luggage storage space. Being a hotel only run by women, I truly appreciate the concept behind this establishment. It also adds more meaning and empowering touch to the whole experience. The staff was warm, attentive and genuinely accommodating throughout our stay. The manager personally checked in with us daily and the housekeeping did an excellent job keeping our room spotless everyday. On our last day, the team went above and beyond to arrange a lovely dinner by the pool for my partner and me which was truly memorable.

Guests can choose from 4 restaurants including Makara Restuarant, a contemporary Chinese restaurant and Alaka Restaurant, which serves Sri Lankan meals throughout the day. Guests can also enjoy refreshing cocktails with soothing jazz music at Migara Bar. We stay there 3 nights and it was amazing experience. All the staff was very kind, always taking care of all the details, it was our honeymoon and they give us a cake for dessert on our first meal. Our flight arrived in the middle of the night and we arrived at the hotel at 5:00AM and they prepare our room and allow us to do the check in earlier. It was super comfortable. All the team are incredible. We recommend Aliya Resort without any doubt. Thank you for all, team. Xenia and Ricard.
