The location is a very short walk to the National Park gate. Very clean and comfortable accommodation 😍 The host was exceptionally friendly and helpful. For example, our rental car had a flat tyre and he himself repaired it during our jungle walk. For that walk he organized a very capable guide and we can highly recommend this activity. All in all we were very pleased with our stay at the Evergreen Villa.

Such a wonderful spot. Beautiful area and excellent service. Everyone who works there is very friendly and helpful. The room was beautiful and had a gorgeous view!! They organised a tour for us in the rainforest with Achi which was such a lovely experience. This stay was definitely a highlight of our time in Sri Lanka.

We had a wonderful time at Sinharaja Forest Lodge! The room was very comfortable and clean, with a peaceful atmosphere perfect for relaxing. The staff were super friendly and helpful throughout our stay. The breakfast was delicious and fresh every morning. The lodge is beautifully surrounded by tea plantations, and the morning views are simply stunning. A perfect place for nature lovers. Highly recommended!

Fantastic location and very kind and sympathic host Chanaka. This is a pleasure to stay so close with the nature, practically in the jungle. Chanaka also was the great tourist guide (you can go to Sinharaja Forest with him!) with an amazing "eagle" eye to rare animals. We have an incredible opportunities to saw an frogmouth owl, which is not frequent and easy to meet especially in the daytime. Also the waterfall at the end of the journey in forest is just wonderful, clean and refreshing water after an few hour was just perfect. We also had an ocassion to tried traditional delicacies with whole fantastic and kind family, because Chanaka invite us to him house and they are lovely, very hospitality, give us an amazing local food and drink like Toddy, honey and jaggery chickal tree (i hope so i’ve good notice this name). It was an excitement experience which i totally recommend for everyone, especially with Chanaka as an tourist guide, because he perfectly knows the area he loves so he really give you a heart for your whole stay!

The location is idyllic, surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty—it truly feels like stepping into a peaceful oasis. The rice and curry were delicious, with generous portions. From the moment I arrived, I felt warmly welcomed and was invited to swim in the river. The staff were incredibly helpful and attentive to everything I needed. A truly wonderful experience!

Really magical place. The owners are unbelievably cute and prepared us amazing dinner and breakfast and we’re really really welcoming. The view of the room and the sitting area was stunning. It was hard to leave as they really make everything to make you feel at home. Absolutely recommendable. Booking shows the property on the map. On the point on the main road there is a little way down in the forest and that’s where the rainforest view guesthouse is. So if you arrive at night and you can’t find it straight away - just call the number in the profile and they come pick you up.

Lovely family. I had a great time there. All confort at the edge of the jungle. Discovery of new fruits a'd vegetables in my plate. What to expect better. I came also for an exploration of the forest with the father. We saw many animals including snakes an scorpios that he has the magical to spot out. So knowledgeable about all plants. And yes there are olives in Sri lanka.
