Guests can choose from 4 restaurants including Makara Restuarant, a contemporary Chinese restaurant and Alaka Restaurant, which serves Sri Lankan meals throughout the day. Guests can also enjoy refreshing cocktails with soothing jazz music at Migara Bar.

We stay there 3 nights and it was amazing experience. All the staff was very kind, always taking care of all the details, it was our honeymoon and they give us a cake for dessert on our first meal. Our flight arrived in the middle of the night and we arrived at the hotel at 5:00AM and they prepare our room and allow us to do the check in earlier. It was super comfortable. All the team are incredible. We recommend Aliya Resort without any doubt. Thank you for all, team. Xenia and Ricard.

Our recent stay at Sky Forest Habarana was nothing short of magical. From the moment we arrived until the day we reluctantly checked out, we were enveloped in an atmosphere of tranquility and beauty that left us in awe. Sky Forest is an oasis tucked away in the heart of nature. The location couldn't be more perfect for those seeking a peaceful retreat. Surrounded by lush greenery and the soothing sounds of birdsong, we felt a world away from the stresses of daily life while still being close to the region's top attractions. The staff at Sky Forest are exceptional in every way. Their genuine warmth and dedication to guest satisfaction were evident throughout our stay. A special shout-out to Mr : " Duminda" at the front desk, who made sure all our needs were met promptly and with a smile. The entire team deserves praise for their professionalism and hospitality. The resort's restaurant is a culinary delight. Every meal was a feast for the senses. From traditional Sri Lankan dishes bursting with flavor to international options prepared to perfection, the dining experience here is one to remember. The chef's talent truly shines. The value we received for the price we paid exceeded our expectations. Sky Forest offers an unparalleled experience, and every dollar spent was an investment in unforgettable memories. Sky Forest is a true gem in the heart of Sri Lanka. It's a place where nature's beauty and luxury meet seamlessly. From the idyllic setting to the top-notch service, every aspect of our stay exceeded our expectations. If you're looking for a heavenly escape, this resort should be at the top of your list. We can't wait to return to Sky Forest to experience its magic once again. Thank you for a perfect stay!

    Staff was exciting, they can manage whatever you want or need (of course in law rules), you can order taxi or excursions for a good prices. Room was really good and made for relaxation, of course, not a 5 stars hotel, but it's good. By the way, they can even make some changes in their menu by your wishes :)

    The place was extremely good value for money and it is an incredible good bargain - I could not believe it did not yet have 5 stars! The forest sounds made you feel one with nature; while maintaining the standards of a luxury room. The food was also first class. The staff was also brilliant as they helped us numerous time and were always flexible and accomodating . Best hotel experience I have ever had!
