Samabe Lake, hotel in Dambulla

Situated in Dambulla, 23 km from Sigiriya Rock, Samabe Lake features accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a restaurant and water sports facilities.

This boutique guest house is fantastic, located in front of the Samabe lake. This is such a peaceful, relaxing and quiet environment. A real paradise for all nature lovers - located just a few minutes away from Dambulla center. For now, there are only 2 cottages in the property. So basically the stay is very private (no noise around). The cottage size is very good with a terrace from where you can enjoy the view of the lake. The personnel is very friendly - and insisted to invite me for a lovely boat tour on the lake for free. Surprisingly there was no mosquito in the cottage whereas we could think that there might be due to the proximity of the lake. The WiFi was working very fine. All was perfect. From this place, i did visit Dambulla (e.g Golden temple) and its surroundings- up to Habarana for a half a day safari (mainly elephants spotted) in the national park of Minneriya/Eco lodge. Spent 2 wonderful nights …and wish I would have more time to stay more !

    All the sites were wonderful - Sigiriya (the rock), Dambulla Caves (Amazing - especially cave #2), Polonnaruwa (Ancient City), Elephant Safari saw 40 to 50 elephants - Mothers and their children on a ridge at the very end of the safari! It was a great day to be able to see that many in the game reserve all together. I would spend minimum 3 but really 4 nights up here as the travel day really doesn't count because you aren't running out to see anything until the next day, so this way you have 3 full days to see all the sites and it isn't rushed. Also, you go out early in the morning as it gets too bloody hot in the middle of the day.

    Dambulla is a great place to explore, especially if you are a nature lover. Lots of greenery is preserved amidst the cave temples. Frescos at the Dambulla cave temple are amazingly beautiful. Inside the caves are cold though the outside temperature is steaming hot in the summer. Sigiriya rock is another attraction near Dambulla. It will take a half a day tour to climb up and down but if you want to explore more, the area surrounding the Sigiriya rock garden is vast and can wonder around the rock garden and historical ruins for hours. Good for hikers. Ibbankatuwa ancient grave yard, Pidurangala (A rock with nice view at the top, situated parallel to Sigiriya Rock are some of other nearby attractions.

    First of all we would like to thank the owner and the management for giving us the opportunity to stay at this beautiful resort. Colin and Ajit did a wonderful job of looking after us They are hard working, sincere and committed in their work. Few things that need to be sorted out were the overgrown creeper in the front which is preventing sunlight from entering the front of the house. Lighting in the room and bathroom need to be brighter. A stronger Wi-Fi would be welcome Overall an enjoyable stay Hope to visit again Regards

    A very generously proportioned room, very clean with a fridge and a large balcony. Nice, helpful staff. The hotel is in the centre of Dambulla so it is easy to acquire taxi’s etc. to take you to all of the attractions at a fairly low cost. We enjoyed our stay and would recommend the hotel for the budget traveller. The bus stop is right outside the hotel. You can also easily get a tuktuk to nice restaurants on the outskirts of the city, the bakery below the hotel is also nice.

    Lovely family run hotel in beautiful peaceful setting but still a short walk to town. Host was very kind. Drove us to Royal Caves nearby and organised a tuk tuk to sigirya. Room was spacious. Beds very comfortable. Lovely outdoor area with tables for breakfast and relaxing. Breakfast was very good. Big plate of fresh fruit plus bread and a Sri Lankan favourite- a kind of coconut and honey pasty. Wifi great. Great value for money.

The staff was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to ensure my stay was comfortable. I actually went there for a business trip and my guests and co-workers were so impressed. The hotel location was a major plus point. The hotel rooms are quiet and peaceful and the food was amazing.

    The hotel is located very conveniently close to the main Dambulla bus stand and in close proximity to the town if you want to head to a supermarket or grab some food. The staff were very helpful, the facilities worked very well. The toilets and the rooms were very clean and had amenities such as hot water, shower gels and shampoo. It was definitely a value for money stay.

    It was a wonderful place to stay, in a beautiful location and very close to visit the Dambulla Cave temples. We arrived in the evening and were warmly welcomed by the hosts who also arranged us a tasty dinner on our first night. I couldn’t recommend this place enough! It was the first night of our honeymoon in Sri Lanka and it was a perfect welcome to the country

    Had an amazing time here, I got myself hospitalized on my first night in Dambulla and the owner was EXTREMELY helpful and hospitable. Consequently I cannot recommend this place anything more than extremely strongly. It's definitely a nice, affordable place. Could not complain about the location. Host is good to chat with and I found him to be very generous.
