"Nice Villa. Huge room. This hotel is on the edge of the jungle but still provided good accommodation. Lovely Sri Lankan food. Only thing lacking was a fridge in the room. Overall very good. "

These two individuals made us feel very comfortable.

"We had three nights here. The temperature during the day was very hot and humid, as were the nights. Hibiscus villa has air conditioning and a fridge, which helped to make our stay comfortable. Service is very helpful. We needed a car and driver and this was arranged for us at short notice. Better to give a few days notice. Breakfast on the patio, surrounded by fruit trees and other plants was nice. Room is basic, but comfortable. If you choose to stay here you will be well looked after. "
"Eighth Wonder was a unique and charming break from run of the mill resorts. What really makes it shine is the peacefulness of the property, you can hear the sounds of the town outside just melt away as you come in. The rooms have a hand crafted charm, and the staff was attentive, accommodating, and friendly."
"Lovely staff and friendly owner. Who drove us to Lion rock early in the morning. Lovely breakfast rotis and eggs followed by toast and butter and jam them fruit and fruit juice. Bungalows were clean and tidy. "

Breakfast was delicious with lots of choice.
The host and his family couldn't have been kinder or more helpful. They made our stay a real pleasure."
"This is a beautiful property with spacious rooms that make you feel like you are living in a lush green space. Clean rooms, nice space to work, comfortable bed. The only small complaint I have is the internet was a little slow, video calls for work were blurry, but it worked! Breakfast buffet was really good with lots of options. Bar was pretty pricy but it was nice. The pool was also a welcome amenity after hiking. Would definitely recommend. "
