Blue Magpie Lodge Sinharaja, hotel in Kudawe

Situated in Kudawe in the Ratnapura District region, Blue Magpie Lodge Sinharaja features accommodation with free private parking.

This was our second stay here which was 7 years ago. The property has much improved and is far better than it used to be. We only stayed as it is close to the entrance for the rainforest walk but we were pleased we chose here again due to the improvements and the staff were far more friendly than they were last time. Breakfast was nice but basic, we didn't have the evening meal. I certainly think it deserves more than a 6 score as shown on booking.com so I have given an 8. It is expensive but there isn't much choice at this entrance to the rainforest. We have visited from both entrances and we consider this to be the best and quietest.

Boulder Garden, hotel in Kudawe

This boutique hotel is nestled in the jungle, boasting views over beautifully manicured lowland tea estates on the fringe of remote Kalawana.

This wasn't our first stay, so we obviouly like this place. The manager Anand couldn't have been kinder. He looked after us like super VIPs. He was everywhere making sure that we were fine. A big thank you to him. We forgot a swim suit and he offered to send it by courier service to our next hotel, which he did. The hotel itself is small and not for everyone. The rooms needs a complete rework - they don't do this place justice. They are in a poor state. But the location is incredible and I hope, this will never change - please never cut ANY of the trees! This is the biggest asset- the jungle and all its noises, the beautiful light filtering through the canopy.

Sinharaja Hostel, hotel in Kudawe

Sinharaja Hostel has an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a shared lounge and terrace in Deniyaya. The property features a bar, as well as a restaurant serving international cuisine.

The pool is gorgeous! Totally surrounded by nature. The place feels like a nice hotel aside from the dorm room factor (which I ended up having to myself!). The staff work very hard and are very accommodating. Breakfast included was a big win and it’s all you can eat buffet :)

    Amazing experience!

    Amazing experience! It's a hidden gem in Sri Lanka and will cater for every type of need. You love nature but dont want to hike, this is the place to go. You want to hike in the Singharaja forest? Well this is the best place to stay. You just want to be with your loved one? Nothing can beat this place. The bunglow itself is an art in the middle of the forest, packed with memories from the past but also with all modern day amenities to make you comfortable. Above all, the staffs are exceptionally good and will ensure you have personalised experience all the time. They will know yoir need even before you notice. I woild like to thank Lasith for his exceptionally hospitality. I have been to many places but never found someone like him.
