Unique Architecture with Special Room
Reviewed By DenuwanUdahawatteWithout a doubt one of our favorite hotels, we stayed around Kandalama. Upon arrival, we were warmly welcomed by the staff and especially Mr.Chinthaka who is a very friendly and kind person who always cared about our needs. The staff was extremely friendly, the restaurant very flexible (appreciate this!) and again a special thanks should go to Mr.Chinthaka who arrange all the beautiful stuff including our anniversary celebration with a one single phone call. We had great evenings here, which obviously also added up to the experience. Note, this is not a 4/5-star hotel or so, but the atmosphere is so special that it really felt like home to us. The Architecture and the suites are very unique and super experience in Sri Lanka. Thank you!

Chill place with everything you need
Reviewed By TimxyGo guys. The place is great. It’s nestled in the jungle surrounded by beautiful nature- quiet and calm. The rooms are spacious and in good shape. The pool is great- you listen to the sound of the jungle while swimming-awesome! The staff is absolutely friendly and served us some nice local food. I was there with my 2 daughters(14 and 17) but I would totally go also with young children.

Not four star more of a home stay
Reviewed By McmittenI hate writing bad reviews as I’m aware the impact it can have on the hotel however I do not want anyone else to go through what we have been through. the pictures that the hotel have posted on booking.com are very misleading. firstly we arrived and was informed that during the power cuts they won’t have a generator. this is a four star hotel they should have one. our room wasn’t ready when we arrived and they asked if we would like to sit by the pool. all of what I could describe what we were greeted with was a swap. how they could recommend anyone to swim in that pool is unsafe. it was green, couldn’t see the bottom of the pool. we were taken to a sitting area which looked like it hasn’t been be cleaned in months or years. I felt so uncomfortable I couldn’t sit there. we were then taken to our room. to get there you have to go up many flights of stairs and it more looks like a apartment block. in the room the TV didn’t work. When we walked in the room was really hot and thought this was because the door had been left open. how wrong was we. the Air Con did not work and we didn’t sleep at all. when the power cut was on we were given a candle for the room. to be honest I thought this was very dangerous for all hotel guests to be left with a candle in their room. when it came to dinner there was only two choices and decided not to eat there. due to our experience we decided not have breakfast and left as quickly as possible. this is not a four star hotel. it’s more a home stay.

6. Kalundewa Retreat
Overall Ratings
4.5 based on 249 reviews
It’s a mere 4 hour drive from Colombo, hidden away within the beautiful village of Kalundewa in the historic town of Dambulla. As you drive in through the narrow footpath unwinding at its entrance, the reception area greets you with its strikingly open structure made possible with a blend of wood, steel and glass. Facing the reception is the lake and the wooden platform reaching out into the calm waters surrounded by Kumbuk trees, sit in the lounge and take in the picturesque lake nestling cozily amongst a ring of mountains listening to the soft musical bird-songs.

Good value accommodation in centre of Dambulla
Reviewed By oliwilliams8We had a lovely stay. The manager was very friendly and helpful: sorting us out with a Tuk Tuk tour, booking the train from Kandy to Ella and arranging for boots I left in the room to be put on the bus to Kandy! Simple accommodation but with air con and a fridge and good value for money- I’d highly recommend.
