The setting of the hotel is lovely: surrounded by plenty of trees with singing birds. There is a view of the rock Sigiriya in the distance and a nearby small shallow lake with wading birds. It is located off a secondary road so there is no traffic noise, just peace and quiet. We loved our villa with the huge bathroom, comfy bed, verandah and great AC. The staff were friendly and helpful. The food is tasty and lots of variety. Ravi the manager is a nice man and we shared some good laughs with him. We stayed 4 nights and enjoyed our stay immensly. We would go back and we recommend this hotel. It is 10 minutes by tuk tuk to the Sigiriya rock which we hiked up 2 days in a row. It is 30 minutes by car to the Dambulla caves which are a must see. We did the afternoon safari in the nearby Minneriya NP and saw many elephants.
