Hotels near Ritigala Forest Monastery, Habarana

Great location in the middle of a really timy village, completely surrounded by nature. The nicest host family, who made everything to make our stay comfortable. We had wonderful dinner and breakfast. Really calm and beautiful place. Beautiful clean room with hot water. We really recommend renting a bike and biking to the Ritigala mountain.

We booked 2 rooms for our family and had the most amazing time, that surpassed all expectations. The owners are the nicest people you could hope to meet, and before starting this business had spent many years managing restaurants and working in hospitality at the highest levels in Japan, London, and Doha - and it shows. This may look like a guest house but the service and food quality is very much '5-star'. The spacious, clean rooms are set within an organic orchard and gardens, attracting monkeys, peacocks, and other wildlife, which our kids loved to watch. All the food that's served is made with organic ingredients, either grown by themselves or by neighboring farmers. Even the rice was harvested from their own paddy fields. Dinner can be made on request, and was amongst the best traditional food we've had in Sri Lanka during our 3-week trip. They can also arrange tours to local attractions and taxis to your next destination, all at reasonable prices. Additionally, they arranged a safari with a very knowledgeable local guide, and even though the weather conditions were not ideal, we still saw 30+ elephants - an amazing experience!

I enjoyed my stay so much and I would love to come back again! Thank you so much for the amazing experience!! ・Friendly and helpful staff ・The sound of the wild birds chirp ・Delicious vegan food ( I already miss their food) ・Authentic ayurveda treatment(The massage was the best in my life)

The staff were awesome. Very hospitable and the food was outstanding. Ayurvedic (Sri Lankan medicine) massage therapy provided by their sister organization (next door) to me and my husband was also very good (Gabaa arranged this). Gabaa is a very customer focused resort. Will visit with the whole family next time.

The place was very clean and tidy. Got such a nice room for such a good price and the staff were really kind.

Fantastic place to stay in Sigiriya, yes, it is a bit remote but in the same time that gives tthe special vibe. Easy to go to all sightseengs, lovely pool, peaceful location surrounded by greenery, comfortable beds. We had absolutely delicious pizza for dinner:) Manuel is amazing host, he helped us with all issues.
