This is the most incredible hotel. The views are simply breathtaking and the hospitality of the staff is absolutely overwhelming. Mr Thilak, hotel manager, and his team took care of every detail during our 2 day stay with them. We were travelling with young children (age 3 & 6) and they were so accommodating and kind it was really heartwarming. Small things like our eldest mentioned how he wanted to try a King Coconut at some point during his stay in Sri Lanka, and the next morning at breakfast, the team had thoughtfully carved two for the kids, in the shape of a mouse, so they could try the refreshing coconut water. Mr Thilak also arranged for a short cooking class for us to make our own Hoppers for breakfast, it was a great and interactive experience- especially for the kids. The food menu was brilliant for families, which was something we were a little worried about hearing stories from friends, but here there was even a kids menu here and lots of things our boys enjoyed. Our stay happened to fall over International Women's Day, and I was stopped in the afternoon and presented with a rose and a small gift to celebrate the event. It was so thoughtful. The swimming pool at the hotel is amazing, with views from the pool, restaurant and lobby that will literally take your breath away. Surprise visits from the local monkeys were also fun! We had a driver for our trip and also took the chance to visit Kandy which took us about 1 hour... worth the trip to see some of the famous sights, though I must say we were happy to return to serenity of Greenacres after a full on day of busy city life. We were so sad when it came time to leave, and would truly reccomend anyone travelling to Sri Lanka to brave the jungle path to the hotel and absorb the beautiful setting, wonderful views and warm Sri Lankan hospitality. Above all, the hotel has the most incredible staff with the closest attention to detail and we would truly like to thank them all for their fabulous service!

We made a last-minute booking and were lucky to get the Sky Villa – a true gem and hidden treasure! The view was absolutely breathtaking, with a private jacuzzi pool and an unbeatable sense of privacy. The service was exceptional, with staff operating at the highest level of professionalism. Totally worth the price. The feeling of being on top of a giant rock is indescribable – truly unique! The room was brand new, and we learned the hotel only opened three months ago. You definitely won’t regret staying here!

The hotel is great for elephant watching. You can have breakfast and watch the swim. The pool is open in the evening and we managed to swim after the road and go to a delicious dinner. The air conditioning worked perfectly in the room, there were no insects, there was tea/coffee. Good parking. Huge balcony. I highly recommend staying there!

We came straight here after landing in Columbo. We loved the room. It was spacious, clean, and had very good air con. Th bed was massive and very comfortable. We had a lovely view of the garden/farm from our private outside seating area. The older couple who live on site cooked us an amazing traditional Sri Lankan curry - it was delicious and was only 2,400LKR for both of us. Viraj was super helpful and gave us a lift to the hotel a few mins up the road where we were allowed to use the pool (for free) and where we had breakfast overlooking the river. The breakfast is a huge buffet with traditional sri lankan options, continental style foods, as well as waffles and pancakes cooked freshly. This cost us extra (5000LKR for 2 people), however it was worth it as the elephants from the nearby Pinnawala Orphanage come to the river to wash and bathe, and you can see them whilst you eat breakfast - it was amazing!
