If you are in Sri Lanka then make a point of staying in this hotel - it is fabulous. The rooms are very tasteful and comfortable but the bathroom is the seller - you get to bubble in a huge double jacuzzi bath with a massive glass wall looking out over the jungle, the lake and the mountains with monkeys... more

I stayed at the Kandalama in 2006 for a week, during an annual conference for my company. The hotel design is ecologically friendly, unobtrusively constructed on/in a hilltop, and covered and surrounded by the rainforest. Occasionally you will be visited by friendly monkeys in your balcony, especially if your leave a few pieces of fruit there :) The hotel is... more

I stayed in Kandalama hotel from 7 to 11 Nov 2009. First two days were on my own and wanted to enjoy the surrounding natural beauties, the lake, the hills, the green fields and the huge hotel. Such a serene place. The hotel is not an ordinary hotel, the moment you are received, immediately you start feeling important. The way... more

We spent two nights in this hotel, on our Sri Lanka tour. This is a fantastic hotel and I have never seen anything like this. It looks like it is embedded in the hill and it is covered with trees. You can hang out with monkeys, they walk free all around and sometimes come to visit you in your room... more

We stayed in some amazing hotels in Sri Lanka. This was the one that took our breath away. Its position, staff, food and the rooms are all fabulous. Value for money it is not, its a hotel in Sri Lanka with Western prices - this wasn't a problem for us but for some folks it may be. Best moments: Monkeys... more

We were picked up at the airport by a hotel driver and delivered right to the front desk - which is outside due to the unique design of the hotel. They had no problem giving us an early check-in - which is key at 9 AM after an overnight flight. When we awoke at 2 pm, we found that the... more

My sister and I spent a night at the Heritance. Extremely beautiful hotel. Very peaceful, perfect place to start your vacation. They have some lovely pools here, especially the Infinity pool. Lots of amazing views around. We had a deluxe room with twin beds. Lots of reds and browns. The bed was especially inviting after a long day. We had... more

In the deep jungle of Sri Lanka You can find luxusuos hotel merged with the wild nature. Very difficult to see from outside as it is covered by the jungle. Glass walls let you think to sleep outside. Monkey knocks at your glass wall in the morning begging for fresh fruit. In the corridor easy to find bats flying. Watch... more
