Our room was automatically upgraded to one with A/C. The room was spacious and clean. The staff were great; they were friendly, and accommodated our early morning request for tea and coffee. They also organized great natiralist guides for our walking tours in and around the rainforest. Thank you very much!!!
I stayed during new years celebration and the staff and people were kind enough to involve me in the celebrations. It was a once in a lifetime experience. Amazing staff. 👌

Great jungle stay close to forest
Really nice place, with very friendly staff.
However, do not expect luxury. It is in the middle of the jungle and there are ants, cockroaches, gekkos etc. And the room does not have mosquito net.
It did not bother me, but my girlfriend would not have been comfortable. Still, for the price, i would rate it 5 out of 5 and it worked perfect as two days accomodation for exploring sinharaja. It is directly next to the gate and have beautiful view of the forest and nice infinity swimming pool 👌
The staff was amazing! Really kind and very helpful for organizing tours, transport and what else you need. The breakfast was also good. It comes with sausages, and if you don't like them or don't eat meat, please give them to the dogs of the property. They stole my heart ❤️
The tour guide they set me up with, Mr. Priyanthi, was amazing. Ask for him, if you can 🔥
One of the days, i walked to the nearby hotel and had dinner - Sinharaja Forest Edge - which was also very nice. Consider visiting if you stay for several nights.
Anazing place in the middle of a rain forest. Very basic and not for disabled or nervous. Absolutely no wifi or phoneconnection!! The hosts arrange hikes in the forest. Nice people

Le lieu est très reculé : c ’est au pied de la forêt de Sinheraja. Le cadre est donc très sympa. La piscine est elle aussi super.
Côté nourriture, c’est bon mais moins savoureux que ce que l’on a pu voir ailleurs. En tout cas, c’est copieux.
Les hébergements sont sommaires.
Please note that the staffof Sinharaja Forest gate complained that thaey are not getting the money when we book feom expedia. I would kindly request you to make sure they get the money of the booking. I and my family thougrouly enjoyed the stay at Sinharaja forest Gate. The staff is 2100% dedicated and recommend to any who want to have a calm quiet stay in Sinharaja....
Dette er et dejligt sted med et eget imødekommende personale. Hyrterne er hyggelig hytte at overnatte i og lige op til indgangen til Sri Lankas sidste oprindelige regnskov. Det er nemt st få guidet tur. 5 waterfall turen kan anbefales for lang tur ellers er der en kortere med 2 vandfald ex.
