Guest reviews for Hideaway Guest
"Set amidst a small paddy field, facility is surrounded by a large garden space with a mix of fruit bearing and coconut trees. Entire family was very welcoming and their two kids were full of smiles. Their breakfast was quite filling ... my visit to Sigriya was made easy with their own TukTuk and that saved me a lot of trouble arranging the transport. On the last day of my stay, I changed plans to make a day trip to Poloannuruwa, so left my entire baggage in the stay and collected them in the evening. In fact, the hosts were kind enough to accommodate me in their small Maruti car and dropped me near the Habarana junction. After a long tiring day, this was very very helpful. The facility is quite walkable from the main road coming from Dambulla but at the same time noise from the perpetual traffic is very minimal due to its location."

"The host was the kindest, most hospitable human being I've ever met. Him and his daughter greeted me with fresh coconut right from arrival. The lawn to the room is spectacular, clean rooms to stay in, with big bathrooms just add to it. At night, you can see fireflies right outside your room with nothing but the sound of nature. The family is extremely welcoming with delicious food -- they'll make you feel like you're a part of their family. Highly recommend if you want to experience the true hospitality of Srilanka!"

"It's just off the main road but feels secluded The bedroom was comfortable and spacious with bathroom and loo attached. Quiet AC. Owner and family all charming and helpful We ate good Sri Lankan curry and rice in their house and a lovely breakfast of string hoppers and sweet hoppers eggs and Dal. And mangoes and bananas from their own garden. Delicious! They are currently building a swimming pool outside the chalet bedrooms so the view not great currently but will be excellent once pool is finished and landscaped"
"Just the building work. All else was excellent"
"The owners are very friendly, nice and helpful The breakfast was very good Easy communication with the owners"

"The host and his wife were so nice and friendly! They are really wonderful people :) As soon as we arrived, we were greeted with a fresh coconut to drink. The bed was nicely decorated and everything was super clean. The location is soo BEAUTIFUL! It's peaceful and quiet, so you can definitely relax and feel safe. Also, the breakfast was really delicious too, would recommend! It's a bit far from town, but you can get a TukTuk or lend bicycles for a small price. But the town is not that interesting, so we didn't mind being a bit far away. Luckily, there's a small shop, you can reach within 5 minutes on foot. It has everything you need. We loved staying here and the staff helped with everything and made sure, we're satisfied. Thank you so much!"
"We didn't mind but if you're scared of frogs, please be aware that tiny frogs can get lost in your toilet or sink. They look really cute though! And they will not harm you. But if you have a problem with that, I am really sure, that the staff will do something about that:)"
"Lovely home stay. We stayed in a room without AC and it was totally fine as it had been built with consideration of its surroundings. Bathroom good size and properly made for a wet floor so you don’t slip. Shower was great. Slept well. Owner and his family were really hospitable. They arranged Turk Tuk, taxis and helped us with bus too giving really helpful advice. The breakfasts were generous and excellent. Reminded me of my own family’s cooking - this is proper food. We had dinner there every night too and highly recommend it, there was so much and we were stuffed and happy. The area is very tranquil, there are mosis at night but that’s the region and just take some repellent with you."
"Nothing it was all good and we’d stay here again"
"Está situado en un espacio idílico rodeado de campo y selva, alejado del centro del pueblo. Muy tranquilo. Con un porche para sentarse y relajarse. El propietario y su familia son muy amable y acogedores"
"Es recomendable tener moto o tuktuk propio para ir y volver al pueblo, si no son unos 10min caminando."

"My wife and I stayed here for two nights. The location is great, right next to Yala National Park. The huts are hand-built, made of clay, living in them is a unique experience. The host is very kind and friendly, helps in any way he can, we are very grateful to him for that and are glad that we met! 😊 The host also prepared some delicious traditional food for us. He will also help with organizing a safari, and can take you around the area himself and tell you interesting stories!"

"I can’t put into words just how beautiful and spectacular this place is. Honestly WOW! My rooms that had over 15 foot ceilings, everything made of stone, fans and air conditioning, the nature surrounding us, the Pool and the hotel grounds, the warm and amazing staff! My stay was short and I regret not staying longer. Just AMAZING and also the owner was there to answer all my questions and last minute demands. Don’t forget to tip the staff because they go over and beyond for you."

"What an unforgettable stay! The location of this camp is beautiful and perfectly located for the safari tour. You have direct access to the dune area during sun set hours. Just be aware that you will have to walk quite a bit through deep sand and there are a lot of nature sounds during the night."
"Staff going beyond expectations. Nice spot at the outskirt of the park. Amazing food experience - you taste many local dishes and they explain them to you in a lovely setting with candles and a campfire."
