The stay was calming and relaxing at this hotel, the environment was away from the buzzling city hence for a tourist who wishes to escape from the buzzling city this hotel is recommended. We had a family of four stayed at the hotel and throughout the stay staff has treated us nicely and food was good. definitely recommend this place for a holiday.

We recently spent 2 weeks at the Amaara Forest, a beautiful hotel surrounded by trees and plants, where the only sound is that of the birds singing and monkeys leaping from tree to tree. The rooms are huge, fantastic shower, a kettle, and cleaned every day. Breakfasts very nice (try the egg hopper), and quality and quantity of evening meals was fantastic (and not at all expensive). On the last night we had an amazing four course meal under the stars, where Maduranga really looked after us. Good sized pool (the pool area was never crowded). Reception staff and assistant manager arranged tuktuks for nearby (Sigiriya, Dambulla, Habarana all 10-15 minutes away), Safari jeep to Hurulu (Minneriya and Kaudulla both closed at the time) and taxis for further afield (incl. back to airport). Special mention to hotel manager Ravi, restaurant manager and his assistant (look forward to seeing the new menu with no spelling mistakes), Thanyu and the ladies at reception. A great base for exploring Sri Lanka, and a truly fantastic hotel.

The route to reaach the property was too off. Consider last 500 m as driving on rocks. Property should try tp fix it as they will be major beneficiary. Staff tried to help - 1 guy was good at english, others below average - The confusion went to extent that the lady at counter said that pinnavella elephant orphanage is only 4 km away, which is not true. I only contacted this guy at reception for everything post this incident.
Overall , staff did try to help for everything they could do in their limits.

Apparently they just opened after being closed for 3 years. They gave us at first a dirty stinky room after a big scene and complaint we finally got the room we booked. Staff barely speaks English. Food choice is very limited, buffet for SriLankan standard is very poor. They tried to force us a Xmas dinner at 40 dollar a person but quality of kitchen is poor, also for the breakfast, no yoghurts. The road towards the place is a disaster and very difficult to reach. Overall poor experience for a so called luxury hotel.

The resort is set in a beautiful location and the staff are so helpful and friendly. The rooms are clean and comfortable. A shout out to the smiling, friendly young bartender Maduranga, who was awesome, couldn’t do enough to ensure we enjoyed our stay and went to the trouble to organise us a traditional Sri Lankan dinner. We would definitely recommend Amaari Forest Resort.

We had an unbelievable experience at Amara Forest! The activities such as the safari and sunrise were amazing and unforgettable. The staff were very kind and helpfull and the food was delicious. Traditional Sri Lankan cuisine! The facilities were also very good and clean and the pool is the perfect place to rest. 10 out of 10 experience!

A beautiful and peaceful resort. Location was close to Sigiriya rock and other nice places to visit. The staff made sure that we had an unforgettable experience. From arranging a jeep safari to providing a guided hike to see the Sigiriya Rock during sunrise. After a busy day, relaxing near the pool was perfect. For breakfast and dinner, the buffet had a nice variety of tasty food. Highly recommend this hotel.
