Known by a flotilla of aliases, the Resplendent Isle is one of gorgeous beaches, tea plantations and ancient cities. Scuba dive, visit an elephant orphanage and a lagoon of singing fish, explore dense jungle, shrines and temples. Situated just 20 miles off India, the island formerly known as Ceylon is home to 20 million people and eight World Heritage sites. The country's long, brutal civil war ended in May, 2009, bringing peace, stability and a revival of tourism.

I should Thank Poorna and the management at Fortuna for the humble experiences. They were so caring and very helpful to me during the pandemic time. The room I stayed in was nice and clean and Mano's food was extremely delicious! Very large garden and felt like home. so much peace. We hope to come back again! Tip- *Very Very Close to the city (Few minutes walk around the lake) and *Order food from their A la Carte menu.

Jackland Holiday Cabanas

The best place to relax under a palm tree in Negombo

Reviewed By Lies0905

This is the best place to rest before or after your flight. The place looks even better than in the pictures and it’s truly a great feeling to enter this peaceful oasis after spending a couple of weeks in the chaotic Sri Lankan lifestyle. Marie Louise and Bart go above and beyond to help you with everything. Would definitely recommend this place!

Great place

Reviewed By frenchVet

The hosts greeted us with a tea and a smile. They were really kind and helpful with the transport around the city, information and tips. The rooms were beautiful (especially with the paintings done by the owners!), super clean and with a great view. The food was delicious and homemade. I highly recommend that place!

Beautiful bungalow, highly recommend

Reviewed By ryanmo

We stayed here for 3 nights. The bungalow is very comfortable and spacious. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The breakfast was sumptuous with a huge selection. We had dinner on the first night, which was delicious and very well presented and prepared. The bungalow is very convenient for the town, a pleasant 10 minute stroll down a gradual hill. Highly recommend this lovely place to stay in Nuwara Eliya.

Helpful friendly host - a shame he tries to extract extra money from you

Reviewed By David G

A guest house with communal lounge / dining room. There are no eating options close by so you need to take breakfast and dinner at the guest house. Breakfast and dinner were good. It is close to the National Park office where you can book boat safaris, which are good value if you are a group of four or five. You can walk from the office to where the boat leaves from – 700m down the road, take the path on the right, where the road turns to the left, leading up to the top of the dam and the boats leave from the other side of the dam. The owner and his family are friendly and helpful but he did try it on. (1) Saying that his boat safari price included transport to and from the boat but when we got to the boat he said we would have to walk back as his vehicle would not be available. As we did not have the right footwear we insisted that transport be provided and he sent a tuk tuk. (2) Tea, like everywhere else in Sri Lanka, is served in small cups and like everywhere else we requested more tea, however unlike everywhere else he put a charge on the final bill. Not a real issue but he could have told us that there was a charge for the extra tea. (3) He added 10% ‘government tax’ to the final bill, which we did not get charged anywhere else. When we challenged this he removed the ‘tax’.
