It is a cabin in a nice wooded area with breakfast at 10 USD per person in reception. The pool is a plunge pool. The staff are nice and friendly. Some struggle with English. We were unfortunate and had torrential rain for a full day and a half. Couldn’t sleep because of the tin roof and there was no bar to retreat to. There’s not much to do if it’s raining in Habarana and there’s not even a tv in your cabin. If the weather was better it wouldn’t have been so bad. Had a spa treatment. 65 USD and nothing to write home about ##### Michelle Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 26 Jan 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort Disliked: Staff & service #### Unique beautiful house however service below par Booked this resort as it was a last minute trip and most bigger hotels were booked out. It’s an amazing place, very good value for money for a unique partially-glass house with a nice semi-outdoor shower. Rooms are clean and mine had two beds. The environment is serene and peaceful and some time on the hammock was so relaxing. Overall I had no issues with the room and resort itself. However, I would point out the service is quite bad. I arrived late at night and the main receptionist wasn’t there but a gentleman met me and gave me tea and escorted me to the room however when I asked questions about Sigiriya and recommendations he wasn’t able to answer. I did interact with the reception through their WhatsApp number which helped but still some things were unable to be provided. I would still recommend this place as it’s unique and peaceful if you can deal with not-so-great service. This place would be incredible if the receptionist (who was great!) was there 24/7 or if they managed this better. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/87D59267D72F124CFCE244C5F4A2EBE5583D2E221737875453691.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/599DF4D72F02DEB0717248265A85D4D9BF6754BE1737875466362.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/755C35B8B7D96A003E5BD45C2552D08C288C13471737875466702.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/76BC4995FFDAB28DB243BA28D7446C9897EBCE601737875479457.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Flame 23 Nov 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities Dambulla cave Beautiful ##### Flame Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Nina 22 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Unser Aufenthalt im Gabaa Resort & Spa war rundum erholsam. Schon bei der Ankunft (sehr spät abends) fühlten wir uns dank der entspannten Atmosphäre und der warmen Begrüßung sofort willkommen. Unser Cabana-Zimmer war geräumig, geschmackvoll eingerichtet und sehr privat – perfekt zum Entspannen. Das Personal war immer freundlich und aufmerksam, ohne aufdringlich zu sein. Besonders geschätzt haben wir die ruhige Lage: eingebettet in die Natur, aber gleichzeitig ideal für Ausflüge wie Safari-Touren oder den Besuch des Sigiriya Lion Rock. Ein Ort, den wir gerne empfehlen. ##### Nina Stayed 3 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tamura Amarasinghe 7 Nov 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities 庭に大きな木がたくさんあり美しいです。コテージなのでプライバシーが守れます。隣がうるさいということもありません。静かで落ち着いて過ごせます。お部屋のインテリアもリネンも上質で清潔です。 ##### Tamura Amarasinghe Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Mattia 18 Oct 2024 Liked: Property conditions & facilities #### Un buon hotel La camera è molto bella e tutta la struttura nel complesso è accogliente.
