I loved my stay at this place. I came here after a rough day and as soon as I arrived I forgot about it and felt very warm welcomed from this family. Everything is clean, the beadroom and washroom is big. There‘s also a terrace where you can enjoy sunset and the delicious breakfast and dinner (you can get it there for a good price and it’s homemade by the family). If you like nature and silence, this is the perfect place. The owner also helped me out to plan my next stepps and told me some nice places - thank you for that! I enjoyed my stay a lot and would hardly recommend this place - I would love to come back!

We had an amazing stay at this accommodation! The place is even more beautiful than it looks in the photos, with a charming and cozy atmosphere. The owner was incredibly helpful and went above and beyond to assist us, especially when we decided to rent a scooter. His support made our trip so much easier and more enjoyable. We highly recommend staying here if you're looking for a comfortable and welcoming experience!

Lovely serene grounds with some very new individuals villas - some with a pool and some without. Super clean, nice staff and great location if you drive your own Tuktuk or are happy to book one for transport to Pinnawala (10 mins drive away).

We had a great time at the Cube accommodation! We arrived around 9 pm and the host made us a great dinner. In the morning, we were greeted with a delicious breakfast on the terrace with a view of the forest and the pool. The rooms are large and clean, modernly decorated. Since it was a holiday and we had problems finding transportation, the host offered to drive us wherever we needed, first to Pinnawala, the elephant orphanage, and then to Sigiriya, which is almost a 3-hour drive away.

Really a great hotel with a great view of the elephants bathing right in front of the hotel, the staff at dinner was very accommodating and extremely nice. Also a big thank you to Thilina who always responded immediately and i mean immediately 😊😊👍 to our wishes and organized a really outstanding driver from the airport and tour guide for us, thank you so much Thilina🤗. And now I come to our driver and guide Kavee he is really brilliant and we went on an excursion to sigiriya with him today which was really amazing, the best thing is, that we can also go on an excursion with him tomorrow even though we are no longer at the hotel but are now in kandy. So if you are at the hotel, book excursions with Kavee, he embodies hospitality in Sri Lanka, thank you soo much Kavee for this outstanding Time 💯❤️👍👍👍!!!

The town is just a town with shops, supermarket etc.

The town is just a town with shops, supermarket etc. For food, my tour guide Prashan brought me to Upcountry Restaurant which is a nice place with a beautiful scenery. :) Go for the attractions like Bible Rock, Saradiel Hill etc. They are nice.
