Our room had stunning views and the facilities overall were excellent, new and very well maintained. The food was great, and the staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming. We also did a trekking tour organized by them, which turned out to be a wonderful experience. This is truly a fantastic place that I highly recommend to anyone visiting Sri Lanka, far away from the chaos and mass tourism. ##### Adelina Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [The Fortress Resort & Spa Galle](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Koggala-Hotels-The-Fortress-Resort-Spa.h7821441.Hotel-Information) > > [The Westbury Palace](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nuwara-Eliya-Hotels-The-Westbury-Palace.h48402950.Hotel-Information) > > [Shangri-La Hambantota](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Hambantota-Hotels-Shangri-La-Hambantota.h15083331.Hotel-Information) > > [Pandanus Beach Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Induruwa-Hotels-Pandanus-Beach-Resort-Spa.h11289546.Hotel-Information) > > [Heritance Kandalama](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandalama-Hotels-Heritance-Kandalama.h1526814.Hotel-Information) > > [Weligama Bay Marriott Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Weligama-Hotels-Weligama-Bay-Marriott-Resort-Spa.h19413442.Hotel-Information) > > [The Golden Crown Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-The-Golden-Crown-Hotel.h19397949.Hotel-Information) > > [Avani Kalutara Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kalutara-Hotels-Avani-Kalutara-Resort.h4031708.Hotel-Information) > > [98 Acres Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ella-Hotels-98-Acres-Resort-Spa.h15504051.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Sigiriya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Sigiriya-Hotels-Hotel-Sigiriya.h1609730.Hotel-Information) > > [The Sun House](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Galle-Hotels-The-Sun-House.h15677263.Hotel-Information) > > [Taj Bentota Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bentota-Hotels-Taj-Bentota-Resort-Spa.h581365.Hotel-Information) > > [Water Garden Sigiriya](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kimbissa-Hotels-Water-Garden-Sigiriya.h15402610.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Lodge](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Habarana-Hotels-Cinnamon-Lodge.h1854476.Hotel-Information) > > [The Golden Ridge Hotel](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Nuwara-Eliya-Hotels-The-Golden-Ridge-Hotel.h29024680.Hotel-Information) > > [Ceylon Tea Trails - Relais and Chateaux - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Norwood-Hotels-Ceylon-Tea-Trails.h4045356.Hotel-Information) > > [Sun Siyam Pasikudah](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Pasikuda-Hotels-Sun-Siyam-Pasikudah.h9272270.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Riu Sri Lanka - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Ahungalla-Hotels-Hotel-Riu-Sri-Lanka-All-Inclusive.h14754284.Hotel-Information) > > [Anantara Peace Haven Tangalle Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Tangalle-Hotels-Anantara-Peace-Haven-Tangalle-Resort.h11229814.Hotel-Information) > > [Vivanta Colombo, Airport Garden](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Seeduwa-Katunayake-Hotels-Vivanta-Colombo.h526350.Hotel-Information) > > [Aliya Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Avudangawa-Hotels-Aliya-Resort-Spa.h9849536.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Bey Beruwala](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Beruwala-Hotels-Cinnamon-Bey-Beruwala.h8256226.Hotel-Information) > > [Cinnamon Bentota Beach – Signature Selection](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Bentota-Hotels-Cinnamon-Bentota-Beach.h36466861.Hotel-Information) > > [Earl's Regency](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-Earls-Regency.h1523191.Hotel-Information) > > [Fox Kandy by Fox Resorts- Luxury in the Mist](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-FOX-Resorts-Kandy.h17399100.Hotel-Information) > > [Amaya Hills Kandy](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandy-Hotels-Amaya-Hills-Kandy.h1700850.Hotel-Information) > > [go camping](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Go-Camping.h23256271.Hotel-Information) > > [Sheraton Kosgoda Turtle Beach Resort](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kosgoda-Hotels-Sheraton-Kosgoda-Turtle-Beach-Resort.h48743974.Hotel-Information) > > [Amaya Lake Dambulla](https://www.expedia.co.uk/Kandalama-Hotels-Amaya-Lake-Dambulla.h2222404.Hotel-Information) ---
