There is a private entrance at the guest house for the convenience of those who stay. The guest house features parking on-site, a sauna and a 24-hour front desk. It was decent stay for 1 night in Sigiriya. Family friendly place. For 3 people there were 2 king beds with mosquito net and ac. Decent bathroom with heater. In the affordable price range it is worth it. Owner was very friendly and shared few srilankan coins as my 13 year old son is coin collector so as her son. They have huge collection of bank note collection in their office space. Impressive. Thanks and appreciate your friendly behavior.

Boasting room service, this property also provides guests with a picnic area. The homestay offers rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. Kumari is the nicest host we’ve had on our journey so far. She and her family are really adorable and made us feeling at home straight away. The day we come back so Sri Lanka we’ll surely return even if it’s just to say hello. The food was so great that we still regret not having taken the time her kitchen class. We highly appreciated all the activities which she helped us to organise and her great transparency on how things work in Sri Lanka. Be aware that the lodge is not in the village itself but is very easily accessible with one of the countless tuktuks within 5-10minutes

Towels and bed linen are available in the homestay. For added privacy, the accommodation has a private entrance and soundproofing.

The homestay specialises in a continental and Full English/Irish breakfast and breakfast in the room is also available. As an added convenience, Pidurangala View Treehouse offers packed lunches for guests to bring on excursions and other trips off-property. I loved sleeping in a forest-like environment. I really missed it, and this treehouse was a lovely stay in that regard. The noise/sounds/music from the forest at night is the best. We really enjoyed everything: the treehouse, the view on the rock, the Loris tour at night, the breakfasts/lunches/dinners, and the simple but clean facilities, the safari... Make sure to discuss with the host about the different activities you can do around the rock (time, price, etc.). The host will help you out the best that he can, including dropping you at 5am at the bottom of the rock if necessary! Very kind family, business encouraged, I would come back there 100%.
