    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

    I was there for two days and the only place we actually enjoyed was sigirya/pidurungala rock which are not even in a city. Tuk tuk drivers are scamming tourist like crazy and there is almost no sidewalk so it makes it very hard or impossible to walk. The golden temple is good to see but I wouldn’t go back. Overall I wouldn’t go back there. I saw it once and that is more than enough. Please note that if places in dambulla carry some religous meaning to you than your opinion might differ.

    A centrally located tourist friendly town.

    A centrally located tourist friendly town. 65 Km from Anuradhapura, 16 km from Sigiria and Pedurangala, 110 km from Kandy and 65 km from Polonnaruva. Cave temple and golden temples are the main local attractions while nearby Sigiria and Pedurangala provide more adventure, in terms of climbing and view at the top. Plenty of places to eat local food for your taste, just say what and how you like it they will make it. Best places for a rice and curry lunch is on the main roads leading in to town, just outside of town. They serve lunch from noon to two in the afternoon.

    The staff were amazing, they helped us with anything we needed and were incredibly friendly. The food was great, the Sri Lankan breakfast was delicious and so were the curries and kottu we had for dinner - the portions are big! The rooms have an incredible view of the nearby mountains and the hotel itself is setback from the main road and is quiet, the room was clean and had everything we needed. It was great value and we would definitely recommend it and we would definitely stay again!

    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.

    We had a great stay at this family run guest house. the family went out of their way to help us with whatever we needed, and the breakfast was fantastic. the property is very peaceful, but still a short walk from the Dambulla main strip. we used their uncles pool on the property next door for a small fee. there’s is a balcony and living area upstairs for the guests to use. I definitely recommend staying here.

    Dilshan, the hotel manager, is a very nice and patience guy. He drove us to the many attractions around and gave us a lot of tips and interesting information for our stay in Dambulla. He made every little wish we had, came true. The villa is a very cozy place, where the monkeys play in the morning and afternoon on the terrace. And the fried rice at his little restaurant is very good.
