I stayed at Saman's homestay for 5 days. I can only thank Saman and his family for all their availability. They supported me in everything I needed, and with all the doubts I had. They booked me the ecopark, dambulla, pollonaruwa, pidurangula, Lion rock, bus to Kandy, cooking class, ayurveda SPA, everything, with the best prices! The garden is super relaxing to rest, read a book, have breakfast. The room with private bathroom has everything you need and is very clean. I had dinner one night and it was delicious. They also washed some clothes. Without a doubt, staying at this homestay made my trip wonderful and special. Once again, thank you! Samam, I'm waiting for the photo when you eat the mango!!!

Amazing location in the middle of the forest. The sounds of nature are just out of this world and you can spot all kinds of animals from your bungalow. Can be intimidating for a person traveling alone but also very very fascinating. Loved the breakfast and the kindness of all staff members. I miss the peace already!

- Perfect host, very attentive but never too much - helped in every situation fair and square - Food was awesome (and plenty so prepare :D ) - Room was clean and comfortable - authentic homestay in the Jungle So we have stayed for 3 nights and it was by far the most welcoming and warm experience we have ever encountered throughout various countries. We were shown around, talked a lot to all the Family and instantly became Friends. The food was superb but since i caught a cold my appetite wasnt so big. Instead i was treated with medicine and steaming hot water to inhale (i didnt order it, the host just noticed my condition and arranged all that) We have been helped also with every inquiry regarding Tours, Safari, privat drivers, u name it and never felt taken advantage of. For us it will be the highlight of our Sri Lanka tour so dont hesitate if you think about staying Here. Do it, it will be a wonderful experience with perfect authentic people.

We had an amazing stay here! The hosts were incredibly kind and welcoming, making us feel like part of their family. They prepared delicious homemade dinners and breakfasts, which added a special touch to our experience. The surroundings are truly unique – a wild and peaceful environment where you can spot a variety of birds and lizards. The location is also perfect for anyone planning to visit Pidurangala Rock, as it’s just a short walk away. Highly recommended for those who appreciate nature and genuine hospitality!

Great hospitality ,so reasonable and valuable experiences. I swam in near lake with host family.Locals wash their bodies and clothes there. so I also washed my body. Host took me the Rock to watch sunrise, it was so beautiful view ,on the way home fortunately I saw wild crocodile. After that I rode an elephant (5000LKR required). They served so delicious and local breakfast. He was the best host ever. If you stay here,your satisfaction with staying in Sigiriya will be greatly improved.

I really loved staying at Pidurangala View Home Stay ♥️ the hosts are amazing, super kind and attentive and will help you to organize your schedule so you can make the most of tour time. Also, the location is incredible, it is a 10 min walk to the entrance to the Lion Rock and a 5min walk to the entrance of Pidurangala. Those walks are so scenic, you can spot monkeys, butterflies, peacocks, it is perfect. The food is so delicious, I totally recommend that you have dinner at this homestay, it is SO delicious 🙏🏻 Loved the hosts ♥️

The location was fantastic to see both rocks, our lovely host even organised a 5am tuk tuk for us to view Pidarangula Rock for sunrise. The homestay is also walkable distance to a lovely restaurant called Nirwana. Breakfast was delicious and the view from the terrace of Lions Rock is unmatched. You are really in the middle of the jungle here!

we really enjoyed the location of the homestay as it is located a bit outside of the main road/tourist area. Free drinking water is available and if you pre-order it, you can also eat lunch and dinner there. Jayanti's lovely dog Lora was very friendly towards us and Jayanti hereself is a great host (we didn't have the chance to book it but she also offers cooking classes)
