The beds were nice, they had mosquito nets but when I was there I didn't have one mosquito bite. The bug free dining area. Bird watching from the deck. The phone service, for being where you are was fairly good. We went for a hike to the waterfalls, and it was epic!

The place is nice and secluded in nature. Simple, clean and comfortable accommodation in the jungle which fits the experience. The food (breakfast, lunch and dinner) is plentiful and you will not go hungry! The walk to Meemure and the lakegala view is around 30-45 minutes on the road. Meemure does not have a village centre or hub, it's comprised of house and guest houses scattered along the road (there is one shop and an ATM, so don't expect cafes and restaurants). So staying here rather that Meemure "centre" makes no difference to the experience, as you will spend your evening in a guest house. The family are communicative on WhatsApp and help you with hiking guides and transport. I arrived by bus and they were waiting by the road to guide me to the property (I do not think I would have found it on my own in the dark as it's set away from the road). Amazing stay, thank you so much for the experience!

The food was the best we've had in Sri Lanka! Wonderfully peaceful location, perfect for nature lovers

The place is amazing. Very friendly staff and always willing to help you. The room is very beautiful, big and clean. I totally recommend staying here.

Right, take note. This is not a Swiss chalet so remove that thought immediately. This is a place for only those who are, essentially, predisposed to love of being outside, in the wilderness, exploring everything nature has to offer in all its glory, pain and everything in-between. If this sounds like you, read on, if not then I suggest you look for more what some may call 'luxurious' or 'comfortable' surroundings elsewhere and save yourself the trouble of walking into the jungle, attempting to roll suitcases along forest trails and across rivers. However, if this makes you think about dusting off your sleeping bag then you are in the right place. The two who have developed this jungle basecamp - think Dianne Fossey for closest example which springs to mind - are scientists. They study and discover what lives in the jungle wilderness and through their own efforts have made one tree house with flushing toilet and sink, and a surprisingly comfortable bed next to the endless torrent of the waterfall where you can have a shower, naturally if you clamber up towards it, or a bath if you feel more inclined to head downstream. There is another accommodation further up the hill and away from the waterfall which I did not visit. Treks can be organised into the jungle and up through primary and secondary forest, and to some very beautiful and remote vistas where it is clear not many people will visit for touristic purposes, if ever at all. Remember some tight fitting shoes, the jungle is merciless on feet given half the chance. The locals are obviously well weathered for such exertion, so it may not be best to follow their lead in footwear though the choice is, obviously, yours. What greets you after your efforts does feel like time has forgotten it. It is jungle. It is dense. It is Sri Lankan rainforest. Local people don't speak English so expect a guide through the forest, not a guided tour of botany and wildlife.

The rooms are very confortable, the view is amazing and the nature hiking around is magical. You can émerge yourself into tea landscaping and see all the mountains. It is like being on the top of the world. Thank you.

Beautiful and serene location, perfect to disconnect and recharge. I was traveling with my husband and we live in a big city so it was a perfect escape for both of us. We enjoyed yoga, nature walk which is included in the room rate. The food was absolutely outstanding, including taste and plate presentation. Every staff member is exceptional. We travel a lot and have stayed in many 5* properties but this was one of our favorite ones.
