Gihan and his family are extremly welcoming and nice. They made delicious local dinners and breakfast, showed me around the beautiful garden and river behind the house and really provided with everything I needed. Gihan also took me to the jungle for a trekking which was really beautiful. He's very knowledgeable about the forest and the area and also does a lot of conservation work to protect this important habitat. I can recommed anyone that is looking for a simple and authentic homestay close to Sinharaja to stay with Gihan. The prices for the accommodation, food and jungle trek were all more than reasonable and worth every penny. Bohoma stuti Gihan!

The location is idyllic, surrounded by breathtaking natural beauty—it truly feels like stepping into a peaceful oasis. The rice and curry were delicious, with generous portions. From the moment I arrived, I felt warmly welcomed and was invited to swim in the river. The staff were incredibly helpful and attentive to everything I needed. A truly wonderful experience!

Really magical place. The owners are unbelievably cute and prepared us amazing dinner and breakfast and we’re really really welcoming. The view of the room and the sitting area was stunning. It was hard to leave as they really make everything to make you feel at home. Absolutely recommendable. Booking shows the property on the map. On the point on the main road there is a little way down in the forest and that’s where the rainforest view guesthouse is. So if you arrive at night and you can’t find it straight away - just call the number in the profile and they come pick you up.

Guided Rainforest Excursions One of the standout features is the access to knowledgeable naturalist guides. These experts lead treks into Sinharaja, pointing out endemic bird species, medicinal plants, and hidden waterfalls. It’s not just a walk—it’s an education in biodiversity.

Atmosphere, Vibe 👌 Its right next to the Forest Entrance. TikiriBanda is the man! He helped us in many ways to make our stay a comfortable one as well as the other staff members. Food is average can give 7/10, and bit expensive for locals. So its better to book it full or half board. Overall 7/10 for everything.
