My sister and I loved our stay at Aramya Hotel—everything was simply perfect! The staff was beyond kind, always ready to assist and help. We arranged activities like jungle walks, abseiling and rafting through the hotel, and each experience was incredible. Our room was sparkling clean and spacious, with a stunning river view and a lovely balcony. The hotel itself is amazing, featuring a large pool, a beautiful garden, and stunning interior design. We enjoyed all our meals at the property, which offered delicious vegan options—something we truly appreciated. We really appreciated that the hotel provides refillable glass jars in the rooms instead of promoting single-use plastic bottles. It’s a shame we only stayed for two nights; we would definitely love to come back!

Nice place to stay in a pretty private atmosphere. There are three double rooms in that villa . We shared the Villa with friends. So it was like our private house . Nice balcony with a view to a small river . Nearby the old bridge you can take a refreshing bath. The rooms are very proper, the bathroom is clean. And hot water shower is okay . The homemade food is delicious and also the breakfast! The stuff is kind and helpful . The owner is very engaged that everything is fine . If you like to do outdoor activities they will arrange for example water Rafting . We recommend very well . We would like to come again .

  • Green Leaves Garden - Pinnawala

    Pinnawala
    From US$22.95 per night
    Scored out of 10, guest rating 9.3
    Superb - What previous guests thought, 98 reviews
    The first stop in Sri Lanka for me, my wife and our 17 months year old was Green Leaves Garden and we can highly recommend it! This was a really good way to get to know Sri Lankan culture. Anushka, the host, is such a nice and genuine person and he will help you with everything. We got to eat wonderful local food cooked by his family (if you eat vegan/vegetarian it's not a problem, in fact the opposite), go on hiking, visited different tempels, did a jeep safari, went to a herbal garden, a biological garden, a tea factory, even visited a funeral and got to know his wonderful family and friends. If you want to see elephants we really recommend you to see them in their natural habitat on a safari instead of visiting other places such as the orphanage (when we did research, several sources witnessed of the elephants being mistreated). Anushka picked us up from the airport and drove us to our next destination in Weligama after seven days. He even helped us with a missing bag from the airport. On our trips we always had interesting conversations about Sri Lankan history and current affairs and he was a professional guide on the different activities. We lived in a "simple" mud house which was very common back in the days. The room was spacious, had three double beds, a refrigerator, bathroom and air conditioner. We were in Sri Lanka for 30 days and spend seven days here and it was a great decision. If you want to get to know the real Sri Lanka, learn about it's culture and get new friendships, this is a great way to do it!

    We just stayed here for two nights and it was so good we extended our stay. The rooms are lovely, the staff are amazing and the food is local and delicius. the location is real paradise. gardens of eden . on a sunny days bungalow terrace or reception pool view is stunning. on a rainy day all turns into rainforest jungle with birds singing . Try their home grown green tea. you can ask breakfast to be served at your terrace. . place is just epic. you get botanic and spice garden all at once . personell not only provide you with the best service but they just happy serving you. Manager was so nice he provided us 2 hour plantation tour. most likelly you will get personal waterfall at your disposal. if you stand still in the fall's pool for a couple of minutes you get free fish spa. bungalow rooms are clean . no smels. new and working plumbing. room had wifi router. fumigation.

    Pinnawala basically has 4 main attractions therefore a maximum of 2 days is sufficient. The main attraction is the elephant orphanage. Related to that is the elephant bathing at the nearby river which is fascinating. Remember the ticket you purchase for the orphanage is required for the bathing so do both in the same day as the tickets technically only valid for the day (we did not know this so we went to the orphanage in the evening and went to see the bathing the next day.. however the kind ticket officers let us go). Then there is a mini zoo where animals roam in more space than usual. You can feed animals here which could be fascinating (for a small fee). Then there is a traditional village called Iparini Gama where you can experience live style of a traditional sri lankan village.

    Spectacular area to get up and close with elephants. Unique experience with elephants walking thru the village for their daily bathing. General accommodation facilities were good. Bars and eateries also of reasonable standard. We stayed at Grand Royal Pinnalanda and found this quite satisfactory in services and value.
