Whatever I say would be insufficient. They are very helpful and friendly. You can arrange the tour and car you want. The rooms are spotlessly clean and the breakfast is very good. You can see a lot of squirrels from the balcony of your room and you can also watch the monkeys while having breakfast. The staff and the owner will do their best to help you.

I had a wonderful stay at this B&B! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful from the very beginning, making me feel right at home. The place was spotless, beautifully maintained, and very comfortable. Plus, the location couldn’t be better – just a short walk from the city center, perfect for exploring everything without needing transportation. Highly recommended!

The room was large, clean, and comfortable. It had strong water pressure with hot water, and great air-con. It says ‘Eric~South Korea’ I guess because I’m here now. I’m from California and I’ve traveled 126 countries. I was very sick when I arrived at the hotel. I slept long time. When I woke up, I came out and the first thing they did was offer to bring breakfast at 11:30am on several plates. That never happened to me in Cal., any other state in my country, and no other time in these other countries, except this place. When was the last time you were offered the complimentary breakfast at 11:30am?!

Quiet and convenient location. The food prepared by Nadeeka was amazing authentic Sri Lankan food using ocal ingredients. All requests were satisfied. Friendly family members and a surprise cultural performance by Nadeeka and Yatawatha's daughters Nishadi and Vishni! One of the most enjoyable homestay experiences I have had.

Our stay at JM Resort was absolutely delightful! From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the gracious family who runs this charming homestay. Their kindness and hospitality truly made our experience unforgettable. The accommodations were comfortable and clean, providing a cozy retreat after our adventures exploring the area. What truly stood out, however, was the incredible food prepared by the family. Each meal was a feast of authentic Sri Lankan flavors, showcasing the culinary expertise and love put into every dish. Beyond the comfortable rooms and delicious meals, what made our stay exceptional was the personal touch from our hosts. They went above and beyond to ensure we felt at home, offering their valuable support with a personal problem I had when my money and passport were stolen on the bus. Their genuine care and warmth was highly appreciated as they instantly made us feel like part of their family! Cannot recommend enough!

    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. From Dambulla, you’re just a short drive from the majestic Sigiriya Rock Fortress, the ancient city of Polonnaruwa, and the sacred ruins of Anuradhapura. The Dambulla Cave Temple itself is a stunning treasure, filled with ancient statues and beautiful murals. 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.

    Everything was really good! The pool bar was relaxing, beds were comfortable, food was tasty and bedrooms were clean. I told them that it was my bf brithday and they made a pretty decoration with flowers and leaves in the bed. Our 2 nights in the hotel were great, but the main highlight was the staff. All of them were friendly and helpful everytime, specially Siduu and Tito, who shared more time with us. Thank you for a great time! If I go back to Dambulla, I would definitely stay again!

    The room was nice! No complaints with it. I got some free fruit on check in, and the staff were generally very friendly. The breakfast was good too! Location wise there wasn't much nearby, but it was right next to the Dambulla Caves! I walked there as soon as they opened, and it was a great experience. There were a ton of Monkeys on the road! The owner took me to my next hotel in Sigiriya for a fair price too, and was always very nice.
