Located in Deniyaya in the Matara District region, Rainforest Nature House provides accommodation with free WiFi and free private parking.

Some units include a terrace and/or a balcony with mountain or river views.

The nearest airport is Koggala Airport, 89 km from the lodge.

The hosts are amazing!! It's run by two brothers on their parents' tea plantation. The two brothers are helpful, caring, polite, and very eager to show you around in their village. And I will absolutely encourage you to let them show you around. Their mum makes the most delicious meals, better than any restaurants I've visited during my 3 weeks stay. The little house has a beautiful view of the rain forest. I really enjoyed sitting on the little balcony drinking coffee. It's a kettle in the room so you can have coffee or tea whenever you like to. They also arranged a walk in Sinharaja for me, it was a very nice walk, about 4 hours. We didn't see a lot, so if you're interested in birds, I will recommend doing some of the longer hikes. And even go in another gate than the closest one.

Situated in Deniyaya, Natural Mystic Sanctuary features accommodation with free WiFi and a garden with a terrace and mountain views.

At the lodge you will find a restaurant serving Italian, local and Asian cuisine. Vegetarian, dairy-free and vegan options can also be requested.

The setting is extraordinary. It’s a 10min walk up the hill but it is worth it. The views are fantastic. The bungalow was wonderful with lots of interesting details. The service and hospitality were amazing. The food was great (the portions are huge!). Thank you for the interesting conversations and hopefully we (or at least one of our children) will meet again!

    Absolutely beautiful property. Landed here as a result of cutting another unsatisfactory hotel stay short. Wish we'd booked here for several days. Gorgeous setting, fantastic cottage lodging on a rice paddy field. Kind, attentive family and excellent foods for breakfast and dinner. An excellent, convenient location to plan outings from as well.

    Perfect for exploring the nearby rainforest; the host was very helpful with organising a guided tour, which was one of the highlights of our trip. Also, the food was great, the room was clean and spacious, and there was loads of great outdoor space, including a private terrace area outside our lodge, and a tree house!

    This was my fourth visit to the Rainforest Lodge and I always enjoy being there surrounded by jungle vegetation and the sounds of nature. It's a quiet and relaxing place with lots of birdlife and monkeys, and a good base to visit Sinharaja for jungle trekking. The food is very good and the staff very attentive.

    Don't miss out on ordering Mama's Sri Lankan Curry for dinner, it's the best! The views are stunning and the lodge is only a 3 minute walk to the Rainforest. It's a superb day out.

    Excellent proximity to Sinharaja rainforest Lovely family who made us feel welcome during our stay, and who prepared an excellent dinner and breakfast for us. In particular, they let us use the facilities after our check out time due to finishing our rainforest tour late Our view from the lodge was amazing This location gave us the best value for money out of all the places we stayed in during our trip to Sri Lanka

    The Rainforest Mount Lodge is run by a familiy - you'll get the yummiest curries and warm words when dining and sitting around. We further got a 6 hour walking tour through the rainforest arranged with their great help and saw a great variety of jungle wild life. We just enjoyed our relaxed stay in the mountains!

    The family is really helpful and supportive. The spacious and well designed lodges are beautifully located amidst a tropical garden offering nice and isloated views of the surrounding nature. A place to calm down. The family restaurant offers nice authentic local cuisine. The swimming pool is a sweet extra. The entrance to the rainforest is very nearby, so definitely, a great place to stay with a high *come again* factor :-)
