Sinharaja Hostel, hotel in Deniyaya

Sinharaja Hostel has an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a shared lounge and terrace in Deniyaya. The property features a bar, as well as a restaurant serving international cuisine.

The pool is gorgeous! Totally surrounded by nature. The place feels like a nice hotel aside from the dorm room factor (which I ended up having to myself!). The staff work very hard and are very accommodating. Breakfast included was a big win and it’s all you can eat buffet :)

Rain Forest Star, hotel in Deniyaya

Rain Forest Star is set in Deniyaya and features a garden and a restaurant. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi throughout the property.

I have only good thoughts when I am thinking about this place. When I arrived I got greeted by Prubad and his wife with a big smile. Even when it was already passed lunchtime they asked me if I wanted lunch after my long trip.The pictures on the site do not really justice. It is a lot nicer. The place is new, the bathroom is super. There is a shower for cold and hot water. Prubad and his wife will do anything to make you feel at home. The first night I just been sitting on the terrace watching the thunderstorm and the fireflies flying around...it was wonderful. They have a small menu where you can choose from for breakfast, lunch and diner because you are in the jungle and there is not much around. You do not need to look for a tourguide, you can do it with them. You have different choices for tours and Prubad knows a lot about nature. I can write here a whole story how good it was but will not do that. Do not hesitate if you want to stay in the rainforest. You will not regret it

Rainforest cabin, hotel in Deniyaya

Located in Deniyaya, Rainforest cabin offers 3-star accommodation with a garden, a terrace and a restaurant. Each room includes a patio.

A serene space in the heart of the jungle, surrounded by trees & peaceful scenery. You have to cross 2 streams to get to the property, making it a very magical experience. The host was very attentive, going above & beyond for us during our stay. He also took us on a hike in the area, which was one of the best hikes we’ve done. It gives you a true glimpse into rural Sri Lankan life, a highlight of our trip. We also went on a tour of Sinharaja, organised by the host, which was also amazing. We couldn’t recommend this space more.

    We did not visit deniyaya village at all but the area close to the rainforest is beautiful...the great thing about it is that it has not yet become touristy so everything at the moment seems more local and real. Not to expect too much from food,just simple local homemade

    Super.

    Super. + Simplicity is the tranquility and friendliness of the owners. Owner took us on a forest tour and showed us a lot of animals we'd never seen alone. The complete visit with the waterfalls was the most beautiful.

    Close to Singharaja Rain forest.

    Close to Singharaja Rain forest. You have also some good tourist spots which everyone can enjoy. Choice of restaurants is less. All are basic with nothing flashy. If you are depending on public transportation it is well connected to Galle and Matara from where we can get Highway buses to Colombo. Not developed as a tourist place

    Fantastic place I have been many times. the property has a bridge to enter that is broken for months now. no way a vehicle can enter or go up to the ticket counter due to this. vehicles should be parked about few KM off the site. Sinharaja is a heavenly place.

    What an amazing place! Incredible view and location. Dumith and his family were extremely accommodating, helpful and caring. The room is well-equipped, private, clean and has proper Wifi. It has a really nice terrace where you can listen and watch all sort of birds pass by. We were treated like family members. They always went out of their way to make sure we are comfortable. Dumith was always happy to show us around and accompanied us all the way to Deniyaya city to make sure we get on the right bus. Highly recommended and will be back.

    The guest house is built on a steep forested slope adjacent to a beautiful waterfall. It is surrounded by forest vegetation and creatures, and the lovely host will look for things to show you and tell you about. Above the rooms there is a large opensided common area looking into the treetops. Here meals are served and it is a great place to while away time after an early morning Safari into Sinharaja Forest. The food is home-cooked using ingredients grown on the property, and is spectacular – the best we have encountered in Sri Lanka.

    This was one of the most amazing experiences in Sri Lanka. The family that owns the place is extremely helpful and friendly (ask about the tours of the rainforest, that is just round the corner, eldest son is working there as a guide), the views from the terrace are breathtaking - on top of the valley, with tea plantations beneath (wake up early to enjoy your coffee with a view). And the infinity pool!!! Tasty breakfast, lots of beautiful flowers, nature - perfect place!

    The host is very friendly and hospitable. Host also had few fusion cuisines. We ordered Fried rice for lunch and it was accompanied with devilled chicken and one portion was adequate for two adults. Then we ordered srilankan savoury omlet and Kerala Dum Rotti for dinner and it was yummy. This was one of the fusion cuisine. The view from the property is great and you could spot birds and monkeys on the nearby trees from the comfort of balcony.

    Overall a good nature experience that I recommend everyone to have. Comfortable rooms with clean bathrooms and scenic view. Walking distance to Sinharaja forest entrance and the hotel arrange nature trials with experienced tour guides for reasonable price. We booked BB basis and the breakfast was fabulous and can order lunch and dinner as well from their on site restaurant. Nice infinity pool with a view. Staff is friendly and helpful.

    This hotel was by far the highlight of our holiday, we stayed in the greenhouse room it’s just a wow 🤩 our hosts where exceptional and the food all home grown and home cooked was the best we’d had on our whole Sri Lanka trip. We did the rain forest trip while there which we highly recommend all organised by our hosts. It’s a 5 star stay from us and we highly recommend it and will be returning in the future .

    What a wonderful place! The room was a bit small, but very clean and had everything we needed. No AC, but the fan was quite enough and a big bathroom. The family is very friendly and provide delicious meals. Vino knows all about the jungle and is a good bird guide as well. He showed.us around morning, day and night. He also provided transport to and from Sinharaja. We were sad to leave soon after 2 days.

    The location is amazing!! The views are really beautiful. From your balcony you can hear the birds singing and see the peacocks flying. We made an awesome hike through Sinharaja Forest., well organized by the Hotel. The guide from the hotel is really experienced because he grew up next to Sinharaja. Also the food is amazing here! We can really recommend this place!

    Location of the hotel is absolutely amazing-just at the edge of the forest. The view from the room overlooks the property garden which is exceptionally beautiful. The food was very good. Prasad managed for us great forest tour and has numerous options to pick from. Complimentary pick up from the nearby village (the last 2 km are not accessible by normal car).

    Beautiful room with a breathtaking view! The owners and staff are so kind. The tour of Sinharaja park that she arranged for us was great as well. Food is mostly homemade vegetarian curries, but they have a small menu and will make you other food if you ask. Such a peaceful place to recharge and just spend time in a beautiful, serene location.
