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!

I've been traveling across the world for nearly 10 years, and as a hotelier by profession, I've stayed in countless places. But in all my journeys, I have never experienced a hostel like this—one that truly cared for me like family. The owner and his wife were incredibly kind and supportive, and the lovely staffs welcomed me warmly and provided all the facilities I needed. Though I stayed for just two days, it was a moment that left a lasting mark on my heart.The room, bed, washroom, and every other facility were exceptional. Dear fellow travelers, if you're planning a trip to Dambulla(Sigiriya & Cave temple), trust me—this is the best place to stay. Now, I feel like I have a family in Sri Lanka💙 Sir, see you soon. Thank you, from the bottom of my heart🙏

This is a nice place to stay. The overall experience was quite pleasant and met my expectations in several key areas. The room was very clean, which is always a top priority for any traveler. Cleanliness contributes significantly to comfort and relaxation during a stay. Additionally, the location of the accommodation was ideal. It was very calm and quiet, providing a peaceful environment that is perfect for unwinding after a long day. Being close to Dhambull town also made it convenient for exploring local attractions and amenities. One of the highlights of my stay was the friendliness of the owners. Their welcoming attitude made a significant difference, enhancing the overall experience. Clean and tidy rooms Calm and quiet atmosphere Proximity to Dhambull town Friendly and accommodating owners Overall, I would highly recommend this place for anyone looking for a comfortable and enjoyable stay.

    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.

Located at the heart of this historic region, it offers unbeatable access to some of the country’s most iconic sites.

With its central location, Dambulla is the ideal base for exploring these cultural wonders, while also providing a peaceful escape surrounded by nature. Whether you're into history, culture, or simply breathtaking landscapes, Dambulla is the best place to start your journey through Sri Lanka’s rich heritage.

    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 booked Vishudda room with private pool . The room was large and looked as in picture. The bed was comfortable. The Aircon worked well. Bawantha , the manager , was helpful. The location is around 2 kms from Dambulla Cave temple but in the interior countryside. The hotel is surrounded by thick vegetation. The food at the restaurant was ok. The private pool is good when clean. It's a good stay if u can put with bit of maintenence issues.
