I loved the chilling area with the bean bags, I spent a lot of time there. The atmosphere is super pleasant. Maybe I was just lucky, but during my 4 days, mostly considerate and friendly people stayed here.

Kani is extremely friendly and kind. He did so many things for me!! I also admire his way of thinking—he truly values encounters and connections with people. You can see it not only in his words, but also in his actions. Thank you for the precious experience in Sigiriya!! Highly recommended!!! Some people may think it’s a bit far from Sigiriya Rock, but actually the entrance is on the west side, and I believe this is one of the few places within walking distance around there.
