Reviews of Sigiri Jungle Villa

Very welcoming and kind. Comfortable room, close to rock. Tasty food and helpful hosts.

We had an amazing stay at the Sigiri Jungle Villa in Sigiriya. The host, Janaka, was the most welcoming person ever. He made us feel at home and was willing to help us with everything. He speaks English very well and is always open to have a fun conversation or give you a recommendation. We had two amazing meals and three delicious breakfasts cooked by him or his family members. The location is close to the center while still having a quiet and relaxed atmosphere. The garden reminded us of the jungle and we saw all kinds of animals while eating on the terrace. Rooms are very clean, comfortable, and big. And the shower is the best shower we had here in Sri Lanka. I can’t recommend this place enough. If you visit Sri Lanka, come here and enjoy the hospitality of Janaka and his family.

Everything was perfect

We truly and strongly recommend this stunning and beautiful place. It is situated a bit out of the Main Street, surrounded by nature and the sounds of birds. You could relax and rest in a big and very clean room. The hosts are incredibly kind, friendly with always a smile in their face. The breakfast is very rich (and continental). You could also eat lunch or dinner there and we suggest to eat here because the food is really delicious and cooked only for you.

Nothing

We stayed for two nights at this lovely property. The room was spacious, simply furnished, and equipped with both air conditioning and a hairdryer. The owner is incredibly kind, helpful, and wonderfully flexible when it comes to preparing breakfast — a generous and delicious traditional Sri Lankan spread that we absolutely loved.

The location is great, close to both the main attractions and Sigiriya village. The only little downside is that the roads aren’t lit at night — so bring a torch and make it part of the adventure!

The place was fully covered with trees. Room was spacious and clean. Washroom was big and clean. Janak, the owner was very sweet and helpful. Breakfast was wholesome and tasty. I strongly recommend to book this place. Worth money. Perfect stay at Sigiriya.

This was the perfect start to our Sri Lankan holiday. The owner and his family were so helpful. He helped us to organise transport and had suggestions for the best trips. The villa is in a very tranquil location but also close to the Lions Rock entrance and a walk or tuk tuk ride to restaurants. The rooms were clean and very comfortable. The breakfasts were delicious Sri Lankan food served outside near the rooms. It was a lovely spot to sit and relax in between activities. We loved our time here. Thank you.

It’s a family owned place and it is so beautiful! Away from the busy road, however walking distance to the main road in order to go to the center. ( at night advisable to get lanterns) The owners are very kind and available to help you with everything you need; breakfast was amazing! We wished we could have stayed more so to enjoy the garden and the facilities.

The place was amazing. We were greeted by an authentic sri lankan family, very welcoming and eager to help. They helped us with everything from recommendations to massages, cooking us food (it was amazing, traditional, great and very tasty) and even driving us around. The acomodation is beautiful and quiet, situated at the edge of the jungle. Very close to lions rock. The rooms were clean, spotless and an excellent value for money. Would highly reccommend!

Absolutely nothing

This was a really nice place. In 4 weeks of Sri Lanka it was one of the cleanest rooms and bathrooms we have seen. The owner is friendly and made us a delicious breakfast. We would for sure recommend this accomodation.

The room had a strong smell, probably coming from the detergent of the bedsheets.

Superb, nothing less. The service was excellent: e.g. the the breakfast was great, they arranged a driver (at a competitive price) for a trip, and they just had an eye for the small details that would make our stay worthwhile. Good shower and a comfortable bed. Sigiriya Rock is at walking distance.

Minor thing: we also noticed the room was a little smelly, but we think it’s because of the cleaning (chemicals used) so we made sure we opened doors and windows - and the smell disappeared.

Breakfast

Nil

An incredible place literally in the middle of the jungle. We were charmed by the place, which was surrounded by greenery and tranquility. The rooms were very clean and well maintained. The hosts were extremely kind, warm and hospitable. They sent us off with a rich and very tasty breakfast. We regret that we only stayed for one night and hope to come back again someday.

Nothing. Everything was wonderful!

Wonderful place and wonderful people. The breakfast was delicious.

We really loved our stay here! The host family is really friendly and hospitable. We asked them if they could provide us with dinner and breakfast and it exceeded our expectations. They provided us with a delicious home cooked meal and fresh fruits straight from their own garden. Also the rooms were very spacious, clean and comfortable. We had an amazing time and i can only recommend staying here.

We stayed one night here. The hosts are excellent and very responsive. They made excellent breakfast and nutritional along great tea and coffee. They provided rotating fan when we said A/C is not enough. I would say excellent stay and will come back in future. The environment outside is so peaceful and lot of trees.

You can stay in a house run by a beautiful family in the middle of quiet nature. The complex is very clean and has a beautiful garden where you can relax.

None

Very quiet and serene atmosphere with minimum facillities.

No hot water kettle. Asked for a queen/king size for a couple. Got only two single beds.

The boys were very helpful and forthcoming. The breakfast was one of the best we had in Sri Lanka. Its not far from Lions Rock and only a 15 min walk to the center. Bathroom was spacious and so was the bedroom.

The smell in the room was a bit unpleasant.

It was very nice and clean. The staff were kind and helpful and tried to help us to rent the scooter. The location was quite good and calm - but to get closer to “village centre” with lot of restaurants and cafes and nice view for the rock you have to take tuk tuk or other transportation (just FYI). Breakfast was good - very standard in Sri lanka - egg toast, butter jam, fruits. One day we got also coconut sambol and rotti.

-When you asked for breakfast for specific time this time only means for them that they start slowlu working on it - so you will get it half hour after the asked time (2/2 days was like this) - it is not a big problem, but in case you have something agreed before it is better to count with it :)

Cozy place with warm and friendly owners

Road to villa. Needs room for drivers

Lovely welcome. Exceptionally clean. Very good breakfast.
