The owner and his Family are wonderful. We felt very welcome and taken care of. The food (breakfast and dinner) are home cooked and super delicious. They even drove us late in the evening to the hospital - just very nice people. The location is good as well to see the national parks in the north.

This place was such a pleasant surprise! They opened recently, so everything is brand new and perfect, but what really stands out is how much the owners clearly love what they do. You can immediately feel it in the cleanliness, the kindness, and even the care they put into the decorations. The bathrooms are spacious and spotless, the beds are very comfortable, and everything feels welcoming. Truly recommended!

This Hotel started two month ago, so everything was very new and very clean. I think it was the most clean hotel I had before in Sri Lanka. The family is so lovely. They are very friendly and help you with everything you need. I felt so comfortable and welcomed :). Also they made me the best breakfast and dinner. On my last day they did a small cooking class for me because I was so interested in making Curry. That was great and I felt so grateful. They also have a tuk tuk and bring you to every place you wanna go. I’m so glad that I found this Hotel and & would definitely recommend it!

Golden stars staff were incredibly accommodating with every need. We arrived very early and they gave us somewhere to wait while the room was being cleaned. The hotel is close to small stores and restaurants and 10 minute walk to the Dambulla Cave and Temple entrance. It’s really easy to arrange taxi and safari and Bandara from the hotel helped arrange for us. Recommend get elephant safari with Krishanta who was very good and friendly. The food was delicious and catered to our needs including changing the breakfast and preparing dinner when we asked. The room was large, very clean and had A/C that worked.

    We chose not to climb Sigiriya (having just recovered from Adam's Peak!) but instead chose the much shorter Pidurangala which afforded a fabulous view of Sigiriya. Highly recommended. A visit to the Bawa hotel, Heritance Kandalama, is well worth it as an insight into the brilliant architectural mind of Geoffrey Bawa.

    Dambulla is an excellent base for exploring Kandy, Anuradhapura, Polonnaruwa and Sigiriya. We stayed there for 4 Nights and could cover the heritage sites easily. Dambulla Caves are a must-see and so is Sigiriya (just 16 Kms. away). Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa are around an hours drive but Dambulla is much well-connected and less touristy.

With its central location, Dambulla is the ideal base for exploring these cultural wonders, while also providing a peaceful escape surrounded by nature.

    I loved everything they have amazing vibe, nothing was to much trouble . All staff kind and helpful. Dambulla is quiet but has local shops, cafes Pizza Hut, great small restaurant a few miles from Evergreen serving very good food. It's run by the people who run Evergreen. So recommended by me.. Anything you want to do or go and see will be arranged for you Tuk Tuk guy is a staff member . If you need car/driver it will be arranged.

    We LOVED every second at Kandalama Lodge!! The hotel is absolutely stunning with a great pool for swimming. The rooms are clean and the outdoor bathroom was one of our highlights. It is one of the best places we ever stayed in with the friendliest staff on earth. Everyone was so kind, explaining a lot of interesting things about Sri Lanka, the food etc! The manager of the hotel is such a friendly guy, we felt at home immediately! An absolute must go if you would like to discover the area around Dambulla!
