We spent 3 nights at Moksha and I have to say it truly exceeded all our expectations. The rooms were super comfortable and the staff were extremely helpful. The chef team (Sampath, Thank, Manila and Sumudu) were amazing, we told them one time about a something we ate in the market while in Colombo and they made us that dessert for dinner that same day. That's how far and beyond they went for us and every day since they would make us special treats not even on the menu. We did so many activities as well so it wasn't just that the hotel was wonderful but there was so much to do around the area. We went zip lining, canyoning, white water rafting and waterfall abseiling and it was all arranged by the hotel with a very well trained team. I can't recommend this hotel enough to anyone who's looking to just relax or for adventure or a bit of both. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Everything about our stay was incredible. The staff made our stay extra special. Our room had a private pool which faced the jungle and it was very relaxing to enjoy a dip in the heated pool while being inside the jungle and listening to the river water flowing below. We had monkeys visiting our balcony in the morning. The retreat is facing the river and featured a natural pool for guests to enjoy. Indoneel went above and beyond to ensure our comfort and pleasure, he has even surprised us with a romantic candle dinner. Lalith, the Chef, prepared amazing meals for us and was super kind and friendly too. The retreat had an accommodation for our driver which was a great gesture. I would highly recommend this place and would love to stay there again. P.S. they said the food there was halal, which was a great addition

Awesome food, great location with a good view over the mountains and forest with monkeys. Loved the sound of nature in the cabin. Very close to natural pools you can swim and climb through. The service from Rangi was great, thanks!

Great value, big room, good location, near small town with shops. Good Wi-Fi. Nice view of forest out the balcony. Very friendly and helpful staff, took us for a ride in the tuk tuk free of charge. Went rafting and canyoning for a very reasonable price of R 7,500 each. Great experience.

The location is simply stunning. Views from the terrace, the pool and the room are incredible regardless of weather. Pool is in a garden setting where the tea bushes meet to edge of the garden. Food good and not unreasonable. Staff very attentive rooms simple and old world charm but all in keeping with the hotels age.

Wanakaset Forest Glamping

Kitulgala

Situated in Kitulgala in the Kegalle District region, Wanakaset Forest Glamping features a garden. The property has mountain and garden views, and is 49 km from Leisure World.

We came across Wanakaset accidentally and fitted it into our already tight schedule, so we could only stay for one night, which is a shame. We would have liked to stay at least one more night to see more of the estate, especially as we had the “Apple room”, which is the big room at the front side of the building with the best view. We very much enjoyed this unusual accommodation, the fantastic views and the fireflies at night. The bed was the most comfy we had in Sri Lanka and despite our concerns we had no problems with mosquitos. Also we had our own (but not ensuite) bathroom, which we did not expect. Maybe because Wanakaset was not fully booked.

We spent four wonderful days at Winland Coffee and Stay. The room was bright, clean, and spacious, with a balcony offering a great view of the Kehlani River and the jungle beyond. The food is freshly prepared and tastes absolutely delicious. The hotel owner, Lasantha, takes heartfelt care of his guests—he drives them by tuk-tuk to nearby waterfalls, swimming spots, and other activities. He is available around the clock and seems to anticipate every wish his guests might have.

Huge ajoining well appointed suites overlooking the river in the midlle of the rain forest with a steam room, heated plunge pool and jacuzzi bath. Yes the location is remote, but well worth the effort. Stunning main building and pool, with super helpful staff. We enjoyed the rock pools in front of the hotel and hking up to the waterfall for the 10m jump (recommend wearing closed in shoes with long socks for the hike). It didn't rain much at all :-)

The hotel is trying to up their standards and the food was pretty good. The rooms whilst they may have been updated in the last year are looking a bit tired already. For a budget option close to our preferred location it was ok for a night. See your expectations at a realistic level and it will be ok.
