Featuring views of the pool, all units in the property come with private entrance and a pool with a view. A terrace with an outdoor dining area and mountain views is offered in each unit. At the guest house, all units are equipped with bed linen and towels. Beautifully restored villa with three lovely guest rooms. The owner has used his artistic skills to make this one of the most enchanting boutique property anywhere. The breakfasts were delicious and the location is a short tuk tuk ride to the lake, downtown and nearby restaurants. Even comes with a small pool to cool off in on those hot days. Highly recommended!

Some of the units have a cable flat-screen TV, a fully equipped kitchen with a microwave, and a private bathroom with a bidet and a hair dryer. We couldn’t expect more.

The property has mountain and city views, and is 2.6 km from Bogambara Stadium. Kandy City Center Shopping Mall is 2.8 km from the guest house and Kandy Royal Botanic Gardens is 3.7 km away. Best place we stayed at in all of Sri Lanka! We celebrated NYE here with Yama and some other guests. It felt so nice to share a meal together. Wifi is fantastic and the location is very very good. It is located in a quiet part of Kandy, just a short bus ride away from the city. We booked for 2 nights and ended up staying 5. The rooms and common areas are sparkling clean. Would come back again.

An oasis of calm and tranquility amidst the hustle and bustle of Kandy City, our stay in Kandy Tree Tops was one of the highlights of our trip to Sri Lanka. The rooms were large and very comfortable, breakfasts were delicious and varied, and the location is perfect as its just a few minutes by tuktuk into to all the main attractions. But what sets this place apart are it's hosts, Salani and family, who are the most welcoming, generous and friendly hosts you could ask for. They made us feel at home, gave us great tips on what to do in the area and made evey effort to make our stay as enjoyable as possible. Thank you!!!
