Habarana Village by Cinnamon
Nice enough but very much a tourist hotel, pool size was too small to actually swim in. Poor access to internet when I mentioned it response was “oh the hotel is full” internet capacity should be made for a full hotel! Buffet was on. Wine was very expective

Back of Beyond - Pidurangala
This is such a cool hotel, nestled in the jungle. And the novelty of staying in a tree house is quite fun! The hotel can help arrange nature walks which is a nice touch.

Gabaa Resort & Spa - Habarana
Beautiful cabins in relaxing gardens. Friendly staff with fantastic inhouse food. Walking distance to main road but set back and feels nice and remote.
