Offering a garden and garden view, Simoya Nature Park is set in Dambulla, 19 km from Sigiriya Rock and 22 km from Pidurangala Rock. Both free WiFi and parking on-site are accessible at the guest house free of charge. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk and full-day security for guests. The property was beautiful and the room was spacious, modern and well designed. But the real highlight was the husband and wife team, Madhu and Sanjee. They went above and beyond to make sure my stay was comfortable. I felt so well taken care of—like coming home to family.

The units at the guest house feature private entrance and soundproofing so guests can enjoy a peaceful stay. Featuring a private bathroom with a bath and free toiletries, units at the guest house also offer free WiFi, while selected rooms are fitted with a balcony. At the guest house, all units are equipped with bed linen and towels. The homestay is a short walk away from the center and also from the Lion's Rock. This makes it a quieter location, yet very accessible. The basic hut had everything required for a comfortable stay. The host and his family were incredibly welcoming. I was asked if I wanted to eat anything and ended up having my breakfasts and dinners at the accommodation restaurant. All foods were home-made by the family and more than plentiful! I enjoyed all activities offered by the hosts. I attended a Sri Lankan cooking workshop with the wife and daughter (several curries, pol sambol, and rice) and the host provided transport to the bus station and to the herbal gardens. He is knowledgable about available activities and happy to help plan your trip. The whole family was very welcoming and many my stay very comfortable, thank you!
