I had an amazing stay here and met some great people! Come here if you like staying in nature, chill yet sociable vibes and you want to recharge for a few days. The place has only been opened for a month so all the facilities are fairly new. Everything was clean and the beds come with mosquito nets which is a huge plus. The guys who run the place are amazing and will help you with anything you need. They even took us on little adventures like searching for elephants at night! Would definitely come stay here again. Thank you Diwa & Chooti and I wish you the best with everything. Hakuna Matata!

The room was perfekt with a big comfy bed and a nice bathroom. I loved the place because it was quiet and peaceful bit you are in a few minutes in the centre where you can eat. Every sightseeing is in walking distance and its the perfect place to take a walk and enjoy the day. The family was super lovely and nice, could‘nt ask for more. It felt like a little SriLanka Home. They will also help you with everything and show you around places. Was one of my best stays while travelling!

I spent 2 nights at Elegant elephant and i really enjoyed the place. It's quite, surrounded by nature and the view of the rock from the room is really nice in the morning. The whole place is clean and well maintained. Beds in the room are really comfortable, one of the most comfortable beds in Sri Lanka for me. Owners are also very friendly people, willing to make your stay as good as possible. The food they made for me was absolutely delicious and in big portions. Also, I appreciated the place has WiFi. I recommend this place !

The spacious accommodations were a breath of fresh air, and the complimentary breakfast and dinner buffet were a delightful bonus. Honestly, the value for money here is unbeatable! On our first day, we ventured out to Pidurangala to catch the sunset, and it was absolutely breathtaking. The next day, we explored the stunning Sigiriya rock fortress, which was a highlight of our trip. In the evening, we enjoyed a charming bullock cart village safari that gave us a taste of local life. The third day was just as memorable, with a well-organized safari to Minneriya National Park to watch the elephants. It was such a relaxing day, surrounded by nature and wildlife. The only downside was the Wi-Fi, which was a bit slow at times, but honestly, it was nice to disconnect and enjoy the experience fully. Overall, I had an amazing stay and will definitely be coming back! If you're looking for a great place to stay with wonderful activities, this hostel is the perfect choice

Best place ever!!! The location is just perfect, you are away from the loud and crowded places but still a walkable distance to anywhere, you are surrounded by nature you can also see deers in the morning it’s truly magical! Diwakara and his family are all the sweetest people that take you in and you feel so much at home. The beds are comfortable and the shower is nice and strong, which you don’t get everywhere. The only problem is that you might not want to leave this place EVER. 😆

We had a wonderful stay at this hostel! The place is impeccably clean and well-maintained, making it feel like a home away from home. The host is incredibly friendly and helpful, always going out of his way to ensure a pleasant stay and offering great tips for local attractions. The traditional breakfast served each morning was absolutely delicious – a perfect start to the day! The hostel is located in a peaceful area, offering a calm and relaxing atmosphere, yet still close enough to everything you need. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a comfortable, welcoming, and quiet place to stay. We would definitely come back!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
