Avudangawa Vacation Rentals

"Clean and spacious rooms. Good amenities - pool, safari arrangements. Staff were very responsive and helpful, always friendly. Breakfast and dinner buffets were excellent. "

"Room is nice. Staff are friendly and welcoming. "

"We booked 3 nights in a deluxe double room - if that was the case I dread to think what their standard rooms were like. Our room was damp and mouldy. Our clothes in the suitcases smelt damp. The room had big cobwebs everywhere. The ceiling fan was filthy. The bathroom had mould and the toilet brush was disgusting. The listing said it had mosquito nets but this was not the case. The menu for dinner was limited with a lot of items unavailable. Breakfast was not good either again limited options and the cooked items were cold. Of course I discussed the room situation with the staff but there wasn’t the option to move. The staff did their best with organising tuk tuks and transfer to Negombo which we were thankful for. We decided to move on a day/night early to get away from the mould and damp. The above makes us sound like divas but that is not the case. We are seasoned travellers and accept that accommodation in the forest/jungle of Sigiriya would not be 5 star especially when they have a lot of rain, but we would like to think the listing on this site would be representative of what we would get. By all accounts there are better places to stay close by, perhaps I didn’t look closely enough. Don’t make the same mistake we did!"

"Nice enough but very much a tourist hotel, pool size was too small to actually swim in. Poor access to internet when I mentioned it response was “oh the hotel is full” internet capacity should be made for a full hotel! Buffet was on. Wine was very expective "

"Big spacious room however it was very dark and damp smelling which I think is the location in the forest. The property is a little bit out of town which means you are stuck at the hotel for your meals unless you get a tuk tuk to and from town. It was a beautiful property with a lovely breakfast but I found the staff in the reception not overly friendly or helpful and a little out of the way for the main attractions. "

"Lovely calm resort. Felt like a retreat. Loved the location. Set in the jungle. Dinner was lovely. "

"The hotel is beautiful The Staff were great But….. Nothing to do in our spare time No real lobby No other options "

"PRO's at Seerock: - large spacious room that was air conditioned and well sealed from insects. - comfortable bed - attentive staff, especially when we had to have an early breakfast. They were kind enough to back our breakfasts so that we could enjoy them before our excursions. - provided bottled water and ginger cookies. Needs improvement: - Menu selection for meals is very limited. Sigiriya is very rural and you have to do research on finding good meals. After each day trip, we were so exhausted that we ended up eating at Seerock all the time - but the menu selection was very average. - Food cleanliness: we soley ate cooked food because my partner had some digestive issues with eating their lettuce (which was on a hamburger bun). - Understanding: We repeatedly asked the waitstaff to not include any fresh vegetables or fruits on our dishes because we had bad luck eating those items in a hotel in Colombo. They eithee ignored our request or didn't understand that this request included all of the garishes and little extras they liked to put on the plate. Their lack of attention made me think that this was an establishment that was not familiar with guests who had food sensitivities and/or digestive issues. - Couldn't use private pool because it was too cold (because it was always shaded). This was frustrating because we paid a significantly higher price for this ammenity. Overall, we see potential in Seerock - but our experience wasn't worth the price we paid."

"Old property not well maintained. Rooms are small. "
