Sigiriya Rock is 800 metres from Sigiri Rock Side Home Stay, while Pidurangala Rock is 1.8 km from the property. This accommodation is located near the Sigiriya Rock, just the right distance from the entrance, accessible by foot. Our room was really neat and comfortable. We were provided with an electric kettle, some tea and coffee, and also with some staff of sanitary kit (shampoo, soap, body lotion). The breakfast was really delicious, cooked by the host family. Also, we arranged a safari trip to see elephants which was an unforgettable life-experience! Highly recommended to families with children. This place is definitely one of the most loved accommodations in Sri Lanka!

Boasting garden views, Tree Trails Sigiriya offers accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, a garden and a terrace, around 5.3 km from Pidurangala Rock. There is an in-house restaurant, plus free private parking and free WiFi are available. The accommodation features a shared kitchen and full-day security for guests. We had a wonderful stay at this unique accommodation right in the middle of the jungle! With rooftop viewpoints, a tranquil pool, and outstanding service, this place truly offers a special experience. Even though it's located a bit off the beaten path, the atmosphere more than makes up for it—you might not want to leave at all. The included breakfast was so generous it practically lasted us all day. In the evening, there was a great selection of local and Western dishes made with high-quality ingredients (though portions were on the smaller side). The peaceful pool area was perfect for unwinding, and the staff really took Sri Lankan hospitality to the next level. Occasional evening power fluctuations were handled smoothly with a temporary diesel generator, but it switched off well before bedtime, leaving only the soothing jungle sounds. For mobile work, this place may not be ideal—the Wi-Fi relies on a mobile connection, which wasn't strong enough for demanding online tasks. But for a relaxing holiday segment in Sri Lanka, this place gets our full recommendation! We arrived by public bus from Kandy, changing at Dambulla, and then took a Tuk Tuk from the Sigiriya bus stop to the accommodation for 1000 rupees. During our stay, we rented a scooter in Sigiriya, while other guests used rental Tuk Tuks to get around.

We’ve been in Sri Lanka now for 2 weeks and this was our favourite accommodation.

Lovely host family, very comfortable room and nice garden. The family is very helpful, they ask you about your planning and the give you some tips to enjoy Sigiriya better and improve your experience there. Very tasty breakfast and comfortable room. Thank you family for the service.
Great hospitality ,so reasonable and valuable experiences. I swam in near lake with host family.Locals wash their bodies and clothes there. so I also washed my body. Host took me the Rock to watch sunrise, it was so beautiful view ,on the way home fortunately I saw wild crocodile. After that I rode an elephant (5000LKR required). They served so delicious and local breakfast. He was the best host ever. If you stay here,your satisfaction with staying in Sigiriya will be greatly improved.
The location was fantastic to see both rocks, our lovely host even organised a 5am tuk tuk for us to view Pidarangula Rock for sunrise. The homestay is also walkable distance to a lovely restaurant called Nirwana. Breakfast was delicious and the view from the terrace of Lions Rock is unmatched. You are really in the middle of the jungle here!
Host family are very friendly and kind. They prepared a huge breakfast for us every morning with tea and coffee. They also drove us to dinner when it was raining in their tuk tuk. There are mosquito nets over the bed. The hot water system doesn’t get super hot (which was the same in all our home stays) but it was warm. The home stay is walking distance from restaurants.
The room was really clean with a lot of space. The homestay is located in a very quiet and peaceful location, yet very close to the center of Sigirya. The view in front of the room is very nice. The host family is very kind, welcoming and supportive. We had a problem with our tuktuk and they fixed it for us. The breakfast was amazing. We had a very lovely stay and we recommend the Panoramic Royal Villa to everyone visiting Sigirya!!
We definitely recommend this home stay. The hospitality and kindness of the host family made our trip. The breakfasts were incredible! They also helped us with transfer to & from Sigiriya, organised a safari trip and gave us a lift to hike Pidurangala.
Such a lovely stay in Sigiri. The family were so welcoming and probably one of the best homestays we stayed in around Sri Lanka. They were very engaging and friendly and went over an above to make us feel comfortable. The breakfast was great- focused a lot around coconut because we mentioned we liked it;) Would definitely be back. Such a lovely host and family!
We LOVED our home stay in Sigiri Homestay. We were always welcomed home with open arms and big smiles. The whole family were kind and friendly, making the experience a 10/10. We had a big and beautiful breakfast both mornings we were there and an AMAZING dinner on our last night. The dinner was one of the most incredible meals we had in Sri Lanka. The family also assisted us with washing and activity suggestions such as the spice farm which was a fun experience and organise tours cheaper than online.
I had a great stay close to nature in the shared room with 5 beds and connected bathroom. Great common area a few meters from the room. For me it was almost like a homestay, because of the hosts (and families) friendliness. The host showed me around the area, including touristy and non-touristy spots, that were almost more impressive, since I would not have discovered them any other way. I can highly recommend staying in Sigirya Rastha hostel and get to know the area through a locals eyes.
