Offering a garden and garden view, Simoya Nature Park is set in Dambulla, 19 km from Sigiriya Rock and 22 km from Pidurangala Rock. Both free WiFi and parking on-site are accessible at the guest house free of charge. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk and full-day security for guests. Madhu and Sanji were the nicest hosts, welcoming me with a fruit juice after the long flight and helping me arrange the following day (Minneriya Safari with a great driver/guide !). The room was the nicest I've had so far in Sri Lanka, air conditioning and beautiful bathroom. The breakfast was also great - served on the terrace overlooking the lush garden.

At the guest house, all units are equipped with bed linen and towels. Quite simply wonderful. The host and his family could not do enough to make our stay so very special. A welcome drink on arrival was such a nice touch after travelling and very much appreciated. The food is exceptional and home cooked at a very good price including curry and rice (4 types of curry) or kottu roti or fried rice. Breakfast is amazing - Omelette, pancake with coconut and honey and fruit with a choice of a pot of coffee or tea. The room is a very good space and has a lovely outside seating area to while away the day or evening. Good location for Lion Rock and there is a local community shop 4 minutes away for convenience goods. The whole experience is in the name - Relax Nature. A very calming, tranquil and peaceful location with excellent service and attention provided by the host. Very highly recommended..
