Located in Polonnaruwa, 2.5 km from Gal Viharaya and 2.9 km from Polonnaruwa Vatadage, Lake Cabin offers air conditioning. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking and free WiFi. The accommodation provides a 24-hour front desk and room service for guests.

À la carte and continental breakfast options with warm dishes, local specialities and pancakes are available. Everything was great. Both cabins are very neat and clean and cozy with charming views on the lake. Dinner and breakfast were delightful. What makes it special is a fact that you can rent bikes and explore Polonnaruwa by yourself (or with the great host). There are many monkeys, birds and cows around. We slept like babies, no mosquitos.

Accessible via private entrance, all units have air conditioning, soundproofing, desk and a private bathroom with a shower. Some units include a terrace and/or a balcony with city views and an outdoor dining area. At the guest house, all units have bed linen and towels. Professional, courteous and helpful. The rooms are large and clean with good facilities. We had a day of torrential rain which confined us to the guesthouse. It was absolutely a pleasure to sit and read a book, watch the many birds and plan the next days. Bicycle hire was easy, and the owners generous with local knowledge.

At the bed and breakfast, every unit has a desk. The units include a private bathroom, free toiletries and bed linen.

The area is popular for cycling, and car hire is available at the bed and breakfast. A children's playground is also available at Ruins Villa, while guests can also relax in the garden. Best place to stay in Polonnaruwa according to me. The house is in the nature and very close to the temples. We had great discussions about the country and got to learn more about Sri Lankan. Our host made us an amazing rice and curry and we went on a night walk to see wild animals. We have been able to rent great bikes to visite the temples. I really recommend!

Fitted with a terrace, the units offer air conditioning and feature a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with shower and a hair dryer. A patio with an outdoor dining area and lake views is offered in each unit. At the bed and breakfast, all units come with bed linen and towels. Our stay at Sunrise Lake Resort in Polonnaruwa was truly unforgettable. The location is absolutely beautiful, right by the peaceful lake with stunning sunrise and sunset views. It’s surrounded by nature, and we were lucky enough to see elephants and many birds right from the garden! The cabanas are new, clean, and very comfortable, offering everything needed for a relaxing stay. The atmosphere is calm and quiet, perfect for anyone looking to unwind. The staff is incredibly kind, friendly and goes above and beyond to make you feel at home. They helped us arrange a wonderful lake safari and served delicious homemade meals made with fresh local ingredients. The breakfast was simple but full of flavor, and every meal felt special. The location is convenient, just a short ride to the Ancient City of Polonnaruwa and other attractions. Everything about this resort exceeded our expectations. We left with great memories and would definitely love to come back again. Highly recommended to anyone visiting Polonnaruwa! 🌅🐘✨

Set in Minneriya, 35 km from Pidurangala Rock and 36 km from Sigiriya Rock, Mahi's Place offers an open-air bath and air conditioning. This bed and breakfast offers free private parking and a shared kitchen. The property is non-smoking and is situated 14 km from Angammedilla National Park. I would recommend this place to everyone! The host was so incredibly hospitable and sweet. She helped us with the elephant trip, cooked us an amazing dinner and breakfast and was just all around incredibly accommodating. She even let us stay a little while longer to freshen up and prepare for the next leg of our journey, after we came back from half a day in Anudharapura. You really see that she loves hosting and it shows in everything she does for her guests.

Some units feature a private entrance. The units include a private bathroom with a shower and free toiletries. The guesthouse is close to the main sites. Ravi makes delicious breakfast with lots of fresh fruits. He even made us a takeaway breakfast when we had to leave early for elephant safari. Ravi organized bikes for us to use to see the ruins. He also set up an elephant safari with an excellent guide, Shiron. He was knowledgeable and showed us some incredible birds. He had a knack for getting us in the right spots for elephant viewing and was respectful to give the elephants space. Highly recommend a trip with him. We also recommend the morning trip as he said in the afternoons sometimes there are 200 jeeps!

At the guest house, each unit comes with bed linen and towels. The family is incredibly welcoming, from the parents to the son, that is helping from time to time. The rooms are nice and clean, the bed comfortable and you can rent a bike there to go visit the city (although a bit old they work well). The breakfast was very good. Our only regret was spending only one night here and continue our chat with the son and father. Thank you for the hospitality and the ride to the bus station!
