The room was very clean and comfortable! The personnel was really hospital and made us feel so nice! The yard was amazing in front of the hotel where we had our breakfast

We started our Sri Lanka trip by coming here and it was the perfect start for us. The hotel owners gave a very warm and caring welcome. They were helpful with everything including travel planning, transportation and information, even after leaving the hotel. The location of the hotel is within walking distance of the temples. The rooms were immaculate and fragrant. Everything we needed was put in the room. It was also very peaceful with a backyard view and bird sounds. In the morning they prepared a very nice local breakfast. In the evening, we had the chance to taste local dishes from their skillful hands. We did not stay in such a beautiful place in the rest of our trip. If we come to Sri Lanka again, it is clear where we will stay 😊

Staying at the Green Jungle was the best start we could have had in our trip in Sri Lanka. The accomdation is great, very clean, well located, but the most special part is the support and care of the host family!! They gave us great recommendations, helped us to choose the best tours and showed us their favourite sunset spot, which was fantastic. We highly recommend the Green Jungle!

This homestay is amazing! It looks just like the photos in Booking. It is clean, cozy and peaceful. The hosts are wonderful people that really made us feel as part of their family. Their breakfasts and dinners were also super tasty. The AC works perfectly. There is a balcony where you can sit and relax. The homestay is 10 min away from the Dambulla Cave Temple (walking distance). Overall, perfect place to relax, visit the area and enjoy the hosts company!!

The best thing on this accommodation are definitely the owners. So kind, so modest, happy and helpful people one would not believe. We stayed there just for one night and then we had to move to another city but the stay was nice, calm, clean and the breakfast was absolutely delicious. We could arrive after midnight and the owner welcomed us with open hands and also helped us to schedule a trip to safari, ordered a driver and that everything in couple of minutes. The next day we could leave a luggages there and come back next evening. 10/10. The owner also helped with the luggages on our way to the next bus and stayed with us till the bus arrived. Would recommend to everyone!

We wanted to feel different Sri Lanka and this place was the best choose, a must try experience. First of all because there you may get the best national food, won’t get such in any restaurant (if you get lucky try not only breakfast but also dinner, we were :) ). Second you will get a real home feeling of living in a village house, with exceptional owner, monkeys and etc. Thanks!!!

The owner arranged for me to get a tuk-tuk to the tourist attractions, which was very helpful since it was difficult to arrange a tuk-tuk by pickme. Furthermore, on the day I left the inn, he gave me a ride to the bus stop.

We just had the most incredible 2-night stay at Blue Mountains View and we can’t recommend it enough! From the moment we arrived, we felt right at home. Host Pradeep and his adorable 6-week-old daughter Thia were so welcoming. Venue manager Dishani’s warmth and hospitality made our stay feel personal and special. She gave us a fantastic introduction to the farm, explained everything in detail, and provided great instructions for a walk to the nearby village (which we highly recommend – it’s a must-do!). Deshani’s care really made us feel like we were part of their family. We initially booked a non-A/C room by mistake, but Pradeep was kind enough to reorganize our stay and moved us to a comfortable A/C room, which was much appreciated. Do note that two of the rooms don’t have A/C, so make sure to check the room details if you prefer that extra comfort. The food at Blue Mountains View was truly a highlight. All meals are vegan, prepared with love by Pradeep’s mama, and every dish was absolutely delicious! We had breakfast and dinner at the farm, and the meals were so fresh and flavorful. As the food is vegan and we needed some protein, we bought some eggs on our way back from Sigriya, and Deshani kindly helped us have them cooked for both dinner and breakfast. Pradeep’s uncle Thisa took us on a special tour of the farm, which was a unique experience. We got to learn about the organic farming process and saw firsthand how they grow their crops. It was an insightful and heartwarming experience, and it made us appreciate the farm even more. Overall, our stay at Blue Mountains View was unforgettable. The combination of warm hospitality, incredible food, and the peaceful, beautiful surroundings made it an experience we’ll cherish. We highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Dambulla and looking for a relaxing, authentic experience. Thank you, Pradeep, Thia, Deshani and Thisa for making our stay so special!

It is an old-fashioned hotel. It lacks convenient modern facilities, but the owner's meticulous consideration more than makes up for it. The breakfast is served very carefully and tastes very good. If you don't mind a little inconvenience, you will be satisfied.
