Lovely serene grounds with some very new individuals villas - some with a pool and some without. Super clean, nice staff and great location if you drive your own Tuktuk or are happy to book one for transport to Pinnawala (10 mins drive away).

We came 22 years ago as young honeymooners and once again but this time with our teenage children! We loved the location, the rafting, the chilled out feel of the place. The staff are friendly, helpful, serving good food, the breakfast was plentiful with a Sri Lankan element. The accommodation is basic but comfortable. You are living among nature by a river so expect to see the nature!

A very warm welcome from Anushka and his family. The unique clay house with its unusual shower was very comfortable to stay in. Beautiful plants all around and a pet rabbit added to the charm. The dinner and breakfast were incredibly delicious and traditional. Anushka was always ready to help and give advice. Thank you very much for the wonderful moments!

Hotel was great , we arrived at 5 am and security let us in . Restaurant was great , WiFi was good , shops are a 2 min walk up the road as is the elephant orphanage. View from our room was amazing . Elephants come right up to you . Bathroom could have been cleaner but that is my only down point . Value for money 11/10 for the experience we had There is a herb garden , elephant poo factory and tea factory that are all very interesting

Kitulgala is a great stop over on your way to the hill country or coming back and avoids the Colombo Kandy route. While famous for rafting, lately there has been quite a bit of investment going into other outdoor experiences including mountain biking, trekking and other adventure activities. But even if you are not into the adrenaline rush, it's a great place to disconnect and unwind.

The town is just a town with shops, supermarket etc. For food, my tour guide Prashan brought me to Upcountry Restaurant which is a nice place with a beautiful scenery. :) Go for the attractions like Bible Rock, Saradiel Hill etc. They are nice.

I love the concept behind the cave.

I love the concept behind the cave. The cave and the eco-tourism concept should be further developed, as it has the potential to greatly benefit Sri Lanka’s tourism industry. I believe Yatiyanthota has great potential to develop Sri Lanka’s eco-tourism. With its rich natural beauty, it can attract more visitors. However, we need to work hard to create more attractions and make this destination a unique tourist magnet.

Pinnawala basically has 4 main attractions therefore a maximum of 2 days is sufficient. The main attraction is the elephant orphanage. Related to that is the elephant bathing at the nearby river which is fascinating. Remember the ticket you purchase for the orphanage is required for the bathing so do both in the same day as the tickets technically only valid for the day (we did not know this so we went to the orphanage in the evening and went to see the bathing the next day.. however the kind ticket officers let us go). Then there is a mini zoo where animals roam in more space than usual. You can feed animals here which could be fascinating (for a small fee). Then there is a traditional village called Iparini Gama where you can experience live style of a traditional sri lankan village.
