The Rainforest Hideaway, hotel in Deniyaya

The Rainforest Hideaway has an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a shared lounge and terrace in Deniyaya. With free WiFi, this 3-star hotel offers room service and a 24-hour front desk.

Deniyaya is an interesting city to choose to stay in, but staying at a place like the Rainforest Hideaway makes it 10x better. The town itself isn't anything much, it's got the appeal of most beautiful mountain locations in Sri Lanka, with its quaint little shops and friendly people. I was very scared when I booked the hotel that it wouldn't live up to the pictures, but I was nothing but impressed. For the price, you get an amazing experience - from the car ride up, to the sound of the waterfall through the day. I love the hosts, they were friendly, honest and made our stay easy.

Rainforest cabin, hotel in Deniyaya

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

This cabin is perfect for anyone who wants peace and quiet, just the sounds of nature. It is in an isolated spot surrounded by forest and the owners tea plantation.It is approached by foot..a 10 min walk from the road. The host lives about 1km away. Ravivinder, the host could not have been more helpful, arranging transport from Colombo, forset trip,(UNESCO rain forest...15 mins to the enterance by motor bike...dont miss it !) and even took me to the bus station. He brought his mothers food over which was very good. There was a beautiful natural pool 2 mins walk from the cabin, deep enough for swimming. I would really recommend the cabin for nature lovers who want to escape from everything for a few days.

    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.

    We really enjoyed our stay in the Evergreen Villa a lot. The room is really nice and very clean. The Villa has good food and is located right next to Sinharaja rainforest. Saman, the owner of the hotel is very nice and did an adventure tour through the rainforest with us. (He does different tours, depending on how long you want to walk 😉) He knows a lot about the forest and the animals that live there. We had a great time! Thank you 'samahara Saman' 😁

    It is less than a Km from the Meredipitia bus stop. The breakfast is so good. They will take good care of you. I traveled solo and the hospitality was too good. They also recommend best guides for the Sinharaja rain forest tour. No wifi, good signal reception from dialog and SLTMobitel in the area. It is not a hostel as the name says. There are two large spacious rooms - one double sharing and one triple sharing room

    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.

    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.

    The rest house was under rehabilitation, and the staff could not provide us with accomodation. The booking system is presently not working, for sure. However, the staff improvised and found another nice place in Deniyaya for us to stay.
