Rain Forest Star, hotel in Deniyaya

Rain Forest Star is set in Deniyaya and features a garden and a restaurant. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi throughout the property.

I have only good thoughts when I am thinking about this place. When I arrived I got greeted by Prubad and his wife with a big smile. Even when it was already passed lunchtime they asked me if I wanted lunch after my long trip.The pictures on the site do not really justice. It is a lot nicer. The place is new, the bathroom is super. There is a shower for cold and hot water. Prubad and his wife will do anything to make you feel at home. The first night I just been sitting on the terrace watching the thunderstorm and the fireflies flying around...it was wonderful. They have a small menu where you can choose from for breakfast, lunch and diner because you are in the jungle and there is not much around. You do not need to look for a tourguide, you can do it with them. You have different choices for tours and Prubad knows a lot about nature. I can write here a whole story how good it was but will not do that. Do not hesitate if you want to stay in the rainforest. You will not regret it

Rainforest cabin, hotel in Deniyaya

Located in Deniyaya, Rainforest cabin offers 3-star accommodation with a garden, a terrace and a restaurant. Each room includes a patio.

A serene space in the heart of the jungle, surrounded by trees & peaceful scenery. You have to cross 2 streams to get to the property, making it a very magical experience. The host was very attentive, going above & beyond for us during our stay. He also took us on a hike in the area, which was one of the best hikes we’ve done. It gives you a true glimpse into rural Sri Lankan life, a highlight of our trip. We also went on a tour of Sinharaja, organised by the host, which was also amazing. We couldn’t recommend this space more.

    We did not visit deniyaya village at all but the area close to the rainforest is beautiful...the great thing about it is that it has not yet become touristy so everything at the moment seems more local and real. Not to expect too much from food,just simple local homemade

    Super.

    Super. + Simplicity is the tranquility and friendliness of the owners. Owner took us on a forest tour and showed us a lot of animals we'd never seen alone. The complete visit with the waterfalls was the most beautiful.

    Close to Singharaja Rain forest.

    Close to Singharaja Rain forest. You have also some good tourist spots which everyone can enjoy. Choice of restaurants is less. All are basic with nothing flashy. If you are depending on public transportation it is well connected to Galle and Matara from where we can get Highway buses to Colombo. Not developed as a tourist place

    Fantastic place I have been many times. the property has a bridge to enter that is broken for months now. no way a vehicle can enter or go up to the ticket counter due to this. vehicles should be parked about few KM off the site. Sinharaja is a heavenly place.

    The owner is super helpful and friendly, help us with everything we needed. The terrace outside is nice to sit and chill and just watch some animals goes by like birds, squirrels, mongooses and some more. Mahesh the owner said he can also make us food if we'd like that but we ate outside in a local place. Really amqzing place to stay if youre planning to go see Sinharaja rain forest. The woner will help you figure out the busses to go there if you want to save some money and not pay for a tuktuk

    First up the food is amazing, and believe me I've tasted many a great dish across many countries and continents. The husband and wife team work tirelessly to make sure everything you want is catered for. Access to the Sinharaja is close you can get a guide all organised by the owner. The environment is very back to nature as you are essentially living in the middle of a rainforest. It was magical. You're living a stones throw from a waterfall!!

    It is less than a Km from the Meredipitia bus stop. The breakfast is so good. They will take good care of you. I traveled solo and the hospitality was too good. They also recommend best guides for the Sinharaja rain forest tour. No wifi, good signal reception from dialog and SLTMobitel in the area. It is not a hostel as the name says. There are two large spacious rooms - one double sharing and one triple sharing room

    if you think the photos are incredible, wait until you see the real thing! This was by far the most exciting and unique hotel we have ever been to. The hotel and grounds are beautiful, with a diverse range of wildlife. The manager could not be more helpful, kind or caring. He was extremely accommodating for our trip and organised several nature treks for us. His wife is a friendly lady and a fantastic cook!

    What a wonderful place! The room was a bit small, but very clean and had everything we needed. No AC, but the fan was quite enough and a big bathroom. The family is very friendly and provide delicious meals. Vino knows all about the jungle and is a good bird guide as well. He showed.us around morning, day and night. He also provided transport to and from Sinharaja. We were sad to leave soon after 2 days.

    The name says it all - it is a few charming wooden houses by the river and waterfalls. Absolutely stunning, secluded location for those looking for eco experience far away from civilization! The host will help you organize all your trips around Sinharaja at a very good price. I couldn’t recommend this place more - you need to check it with your own eyes!

    Great location, and very friendly staf the hotel is next to the sinharaja rain Forest. If you stay there you have to go to go with a guide from this hotel. We contacted someone else but apparently they can not take the job we had to book via the hotel. It cost 30 USD per person. This is expensive if you know the ticket price of the forrest… Food is ok.
