Wonderful family and a great place to stay. The room is the entire top floor, there's a living area, seperate bedroom and balcony. Definitely great value for money. Perfect location close to the start of the rainforest trekking path. The food cooked by the family is fantastic, huge portions and really tasty.

Eco Villa - Sinharaja, hotel in Deniyaya

Located in Deniyaya in the Matara District region, Eco Villa - Sinharaja features a garden. There is an on-site restaurant, plus free private parking and free WiFi are available.

The location of the bungalow was at the top of a high hill in wonderful forested county beset with mountains and valleys. One of the owners is a qualified rainforest guide, knowledgable in wildlife and able to take guests to National Parks and Forests. We went for one night and in the end stayed for three. Anyone interested in nature and wildlife would find everything they want at Sinhiraja Rest.

Healand Holiday Bungalow and Restaurant, hotel in Deniyaya

Set in Deniyaya in the Matara District region, Healand Holiday Bungalow and Restaurant offers accommodation with free private parking. The property has garden views.

My partner and I stayed here for 3 nights, wish we could’ve stayed longer! The villa is super peaceful, the hosts are very kind and welcoming, on hand for anything you need and the rooms were lovely and clean. We have been travelling for a while now, and this was the most peaceful, welcomed and at home we felt in a very long time. The bonus was the incredible food. We ate Sri Lankan food for breakfast, lunch and dinner as we wanted to experience it properly with some spice and the chef exceeded expectations. The food was absolutely incredible and possibly the best we’ve had in a very very long time. Everything was fresh, portions were extremely generous and super flavoursome. We recommend the room with a balcony as you can relax there for hours watching the birds pass by and they get pretty close. Very special. Thank you for being such great hosts and making it special for us!

    Great location for visiting the Sinharaja rainforest. Tour guide is arranged by the hosts. Great guide who can make gorgeous pictures and has a sharp eye for animal spotting. Beautiful swimming pool with fireflies. Definitely go swimming in the dark (in your phone light). Cute dogs. Good food by the mother for a fair price. Use a tuk tuk rather than taxi from Deniyaya, because the road is not suitable for a car. The host was kind enough to offer us a tuk tuk ride to our taxi driver. There are mosquito nets around the bed, use them!

    Staying at the rainforest cabin was one of the highlights of our one month long stay in sri lanka. The place is incredibly beautiful and it was so nice to be surrounded by nature. Ravindra is a great host and made our stay really special. He arranged a guided rainforest tour for us and took us on a little hike close to the cabin. We would not change a thing and can only recommend staying at this hidden gem.

    The owners are very kind and welcoming. They can help you to arrange hiking in the forest with a great and passionate guide. You can ask for breakfasts, lunches and dinners in the guest house. The three dinners I took were exceptional, especially the grilled chicken with the vegetables. The place is clean and quiet, it's easy to sleep, you have a Mosquito net for the bed.

    The location is an excellent place to start the trip to the forest and the hosts super friendly. Food was delicious. Very much appreciated the quietness during my stay. The guide the family organised for my trip to the rainforest had outstanding knowledge about all plants, animals and great humour. Highly recommend the accommodation and the tour guide.

    Best place we have stayed in Sri Lanka in terms of overall experience (great hosts & fairytale location). Food provided was very delicious, with great variety. The Sinharaja forest tour was also a very good experience, our guide (the owner of the Nest) being very knowleadgeble of what is going on in the forest (he spotted a lot of birds/animals and told us a lot about their behavior). All in all we just recommend this place by our hearts. A big thank you for the hosts!

    The host was really nice and helpful. The location is stunning, quiet and really close to the entrance of Sinharaja. Not really anything to critize. Organized Tour was awsome! Really adventurous.
