Bike hire is available at this homestay and the area is popular for cycling. The homestay also offers car hire. Sigiriya Rock is 800 metres from Sigiri Rock Side Home Stay, while Pidurangala Rock is 1.8 km from the property. Second time here, but if we will come to Sigiriya, definetaly to this place. .The surrounding is so beautiful, you feel as the middle of the jungle. Monkeys are watching you all the time, its funny. The rooms are superclean and comfortable. Finally the breakfast is amazing. The owner puts not only lot of food, but his heart on tge table as well. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!!!😊😊😊

At the homestay, units are fitted with a desk. With a private bathroom fitted with a shower and slippers, units at the homestay also have free WiFi. At the homestay, units are equipped with bed linen and towels. This place was incredible. From the moment we arrived we felt relaxed and comfortable. The gardens are absolutely gorgeous and due to the heavy rain when we visited we spent a lot of time drinking tea and sitting on the covered porch. The hosts were very attentive and available but not over bearing. They gave us tuk tuk rides at a good price to pidurangala rock and Sigiriya rock. The room was spotless and so comfortable. We’ve been in Sri Lanka now for 2 weeks and this was our favourite accommodation.

Set within 1.4 km of Sigiriya Rock and 4.5 km of Pidurangala Rock in Sigiriya, Yashi's Place Sigiriya provides accommodation with seating area. This property offers access to a terrace and free private parking. The guest house offers garden views, an outdoor fireplace, a 24-hour front desk, and free WiFi is available throughout the property. We had such a wonderful stay at Yashi’s place. It was clean and comfortable. Harsha went out of his way to make our stay special and as comfortable as possible. His family was so lovely and friendly. We had a delicious dinner cooked by his wife and a scrumptious breakfast every morning. The location is perfect - a short tuktuk ride to all the main attractions (pidirungula rock and lions rock - which Harsha helped us arrange for reasonable prices) and the main strip of shops. We were delighted to catch the peacock on the roof! There are also lots of cute little squirrels on the property. An added bonus is Mr Caffeine just down the alley which has great coffee. Highly recommend staying at Yashi’s place.

Towels and bed linen are available in the homestay. For added privacy, the accommodation has a private entrance and soundproofing.

The homestay specialises in a continental and Full English/Irish breakfast and breakfast in the room is also available. As an added convenience, Pidurangala View Treehouse offers packed lunches for guests to bring on excursions and other trips off-property. The location is beautiful, with excellent views of Pidurangala rock. Our host and his family were very friendly and helpful. The traditional home cooked food made for us was excellent with very generous portions provided for breakfast and dinner. Our host offered to drop us off at both Lions Rock and Pidurangala Rock in his TukTuk both mornings of our stay. The treehouse was really clean and relaxing, with a big comfortable bed, mosquito net and a very powerful fan that allowed us to get good sleep despite the heat. The bathroom is very unique and probably our favourite part of the accomm - a walled outdoor toilet and shower with nice plants around that made it feel like a garden. Thanks to Duwinda and his family for a memorable experience.
