"When I arrived at the property, despite me canceling my previous reservation, they were confused as they saw two reservations, and even after me showing that I had canceled it, they still gave me a hard time. They should have better communication with the booking agency so that this does not happen to someone else in future. The room was OK but nothing spectacular. Definitely not a five star hotel by any means ."

Dambulla

"The resort is set back from a busy road in a fabulous nature setting. Beware that 20 out of the 26 "rooms" are tents and only 6 are solid built cottages. If you want a glamping style close to nature experience then the tents are fabulous. If you want to have more privacy go for the cottages, which are very large and beautiful. Staff was extremely helpful. As we were few people breakfast and dinner options were limited but very tasty. Excellent option for a luxury stay in thw dambulla triangle."

"Beautiful setting. I was a bit confused about advertised lake who is actually not on the property and holds little for guests. Pool area was wonderful very quiet with trees and birds. Heinz was most helpful in sugges outings and arranging driver. A few niggles: Breakfasts like all in Sri Lanka could use some tweaking with toast presented first to go cold and items not offered but available such as tomatoes or bacon: readily provided when requested. Spider life is rampant so staff could pay more...

Top Arangala Hotel Reviews

Jetwing Vil Uyana, A Luxury Reserve

10/10 Excellent

"An absolutely incredible stay! I don’t think any hotel could beat this one. It’s absolutely beautiful from the moment you get on to the buggie and driven around the resort. It’s the type of place where you can sit in peace and watch nature and the wildlife around you. The staff were incredible and we had our own butler who organised everything for us. Food was lovely!"

Pothana Village

10/10 Excellent

"This property is so serene and peaceful, surrounded by lush greenery. You can see plenty of wild life from peacocks, iguanas to gecko’s, which we got to experience first hand. We were told that sometimes elephants venture and drink from the river further away from the property that can be seen from the rooms, we were unlucky not to see them The staff were all really friendly, kind and accommodating. Lovely, clean swimming pool. We came as a family of 5 to climb Sigiriya and en route to the East Coast."

Kassapa Lion Rock

10/10 Excellent

"We accidentally found this fabulous hotel due to sudden change of our vacation plan. Hotel is located in very calm quiet area within 10 km from Sigiriya local ticketing office. We had an unexpectedly wonderful time in the hotel. The staff were very welcoming and supportive. Hotel has two well maintained pools and beautiful restaurant. Room and the whole hotel was very clean. Foods are so delicious as well. Highly recommend for couples or anyone would like to spend true relax time before or after climbing the Sigiriya rock. This place deserves more than five stars. I encourage more locals to explore these beautiful places around the country."

Sunshine Resort and Spa

10/10 Excellent

"Our hosts were welcoming and delightful. The hospitality made our visit of Sigiriya most memorable. The rooms were clean and the food was fresh and delicious. With ease of access to the restaurants, and of course Lion's Rock, we took in the sunrise from a most impressive ancient civilization! Highly recommended."

Hungry Lion Sigiriya

10/10 Excellent

" 10/10. The hotel is VERY clean and you can see they work really hard to make sure of that. Our host was very helpful, booking a trip for us to see a cultural dance and organising our transport/negotiating a good price for the journey for us. Very nice breakfast too. Would 100% recommend staying here."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Arangala?

The best area to stay in Arangala is generally within the Arangala Estate itself, particularly around the central bungalow or one of the private villas located within the tea plantations.

This area is defined by its lush tea estates and the serene, elevated landscapes of the Central Province. Accommodations here are typically set amidst rolling hills of tea bushes, often with views of distant mountains. It's a place for quiet reflection and enjoying nature, with walking paths winding through the plantations.

For couples seeking a tranquil and romantic getaway, staying within the Arangala Estate offers privacy and a chance to truly unwind. You can enjoy strolls through the tea fields, participate in tea-picking experiences, and relax with stunning views from your accommodation. The focus here is on relaxation and enjoying the natural beauty.

For those interested in a more active, yet still peaceful, holiday, the areas closer to the estate's main facilities often provide easier access to guided walks or excursions to nearby natural attractions like waterfalls.

When is the best time to go to Arangala?

The best time to visit Arangala is during the dry season, which typically runs from May to September.

This period offers consistently sunny days and lower humidity, making it ideal for exploring the region's natural beauty, including the Arangala Mountain Range and the surrounding tea plantations. You'll find it comfortable for outdoor activities like hiking and visiting local villages.

For those planning a relaxing holiday focused on enjoying the scenery and cooler mountain air, these months are perfect.
