This was the most amazing hotel I have stayed in , beautiful setting and very calming , we swam in the river , the piling pool at our room was amazing as was the steam room. The food was great and the staff couldn’t do enough for you . I highly recommend this hotel if you fancy a bit of luxury.

Make sure you take them up on the lift up in their four wheel drive we went up in a normal taxi and it was quite scary but they transported to our next location and was a great ride.

Everything about our stay was incredible. The staff made our stay extra special. Our room had a private pool which faced the jungle and it was very relaxing to enjoy a dip in the heated pool while being inside the jungle and listening to the river water flowing below. We had monkeys visiting our balcony in the morning. The retreat is facing the river and featured a natural pool for guests to enjoy. Indoneel went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and pleasure, he has even surprised us with a romantic candle dinner. Lalith, the Chef, prepared amazing meals for us and was super kind and friendly too. The retreat had an accommodation for our driver which was a great gesture. I would highly recommend this place and would love to stay there again. P.S. they said the food there was halal, which was a great addition

Nothing, all was perfect

Had an incredible stay at this stunning property, surrounded by lush forest and a beautiful waterfall right next to the hotel. The access to a nearby hiking trail leading to a waterfall’s cliff added an adventurous touch to our stay. The staff were exceptional—attentive, friendly, and always eager to help.

The only downsides were the gravel road leading to the property, which can be challenging for vehicles with low ground clearance, but the hotel offers convenient pickup and drop-off services (while checking in and checking out). The à la carte menu had limited choices and was quite pricey, likely due to logistical reasons. The food was decent, though not exceptional, and could benefit from more variety and better value. Overall, it was a wonderful experience with just a few minor areas for improvement.

Huge ajoining well appointed suites overlooking the river in the midlle of the rain forest with a steam room, heated plunge pool and jacuzzi bath. Yes the location is remote, but well worth the effort. Stunning main building and pool, with super helpful staff. We enjoyed the rock pools in front of the hotel and hking up to the waterfall for the 10m jump (recommend wearing closed in shoes with long socks for the hike). It didn't rain much at all :-)

The rooms and facilities need some maintenance - the jacuzzi in the rooms plunge pool was out of order as were both jacuzzi's in the main pool. The wood floor in the room needed some repairs. The main building could use a clean/coat of paint here and there. There is a pretty decent pool table upstairs but all the cues are totally broken which is a shame. leeches!

Its one of the best places i stayes in sri lanka . Too quiet . Comfortable . And the staff were amazing and patient . Helpful . I forget to ask their names but i remember mohamed was amazing with everything . The driver he picked me up from the town and droped me off while waiting me to make sure everything was good . The hotel in middle of nature . But had everything needed . Restaurant is very good . Wifi signal very good all around the hotel . They alao arrange adventure tours which are famous in kitulgala .

The location is amazing with a river going through the property. It was very peaceful. The service was amazing. I could call and I could ask for anything to be brought to the room. Their employee Indunil is the best employee I've ever had at a hotel. He made the experience twice as good. Give that man a pay raise!

The WiFi is a little weak but you really don't need it out there. The upstairs area of the main building could use some cleaning and maintenance.

After a long day of hiking, my wife and I really enjoyed relaxing in the plunge pool and steam room. The staff (Mohammad and Vijay) were very responsive and helpful. We enjoyed having delicious string hoppers and curries for breakfast. They arranged white water rafting and it was an experience of a lifetime for us.

The AC was frequently getting switched off due to timer issues. Blind for the door to the swimming pool was broken and constantly hampered us from accessing the pool smoothly.

Mohammed showed us around and accommodated us very well! Sameera took us to the river right next to the retreat and swam with us. Indunil checked us out with no issues! And they had free shuttle service. Overall beautiful retreat and location, really enjoyed our time here.

The food was a bit pricey and we weren’t able to really travel to buy food else where since it was a bit of a drive, but the food was very tasty!

Amazing hotel right in the middle of a rainforest. Lovely pool and rooms are amazing. The staff are very helpful and attentive and food is great.

It is right in the middle of a rainforest which is amazing but makes it difficult to get to. Also not that easy just to go to a shop on a quick journey.

The location was remote, journey was exciting. Road getting to hotel isnt suitable for low cars but was already aware of this so we had no issues. The room was very clean. Staff were helpful. Facilities in the room were great, the heated plunge pool is a must.

Food was a little on the expensive side but this was a little expected. Wifi speeds are slow. Room didnt have many useable plug sockets
