Aarunya Nature Resort and Spa

The most incredible views from a hotel you’ll come across if you ever visit Sri Lanka ! Courteous staff and very helpful at the time of need. A stunning plunge pool in the Sky Tented Villa (highly recommend staying in the Sky Tented Villa !) but equally a stunning main pool over looking the hills of Kandy. An incredible experience all round.

What a wonderful time we had at your hotel - Thank you! Special thanks for Dulan, Damitha and Ishara, God Bless you!

Late review but a much needed & well deserved. The best resort we have ever stayed in, perfect resort to relax & actually unwind. We took all inclusive package & Sky tented room with private pool overlooking a spectacular green valley. anddddd it was sooo much worth it. Their super excellent service spoiled us from the moment you reach the resort. We were welcomed with a spectacular view & super warm staff. Also given a welcome 10 minute massage. In the package, all meals were included which had 5 course meals every time. The chef was great & food was so delicious every time. Every day 30 minutes massage was also free in the package which was the cherry on the cake to relax completely. The property itself was beautiful & had short in the jungle kind of walkways to explore. It was a perfect getaway & the staff made it extra comfortable for us with their service. It’s a boutique resort so has like 9-10 rooms only mostly all with private pools I think. So the staff gives you full attention & comfort, be it getting you food in your room or at their restaurant. They have one restaurant at the lobby & fixed 4-5 course meal menu but still with 2-3 option in every course. They have Ala carte options too. Kids might not feel much to do in this resort apart from pool or some games. Thankyou to the whole staff for make it a perfect & super excellent stay 7/ for a thoughtful parting gift. We will definitely come back again.

We stayed in the Sky Tented Villa, and it truly did offer the contemporary luxurious glamping experience described. The views were breathtaking even when it was rainy and every detail had been considered. The staff were so helpful and friendly and we made the most of dining in the villa as well as the restaurant. This stay was for a special family occasion and that’s exactly what it was. Thank you.

Heaven on earth, beautiful place and nature, the staff were very sweet and welcoming they even gave us a small gift before we left .. and the food was absolutely delicious I would give it a 10/10. Just check the weather before you book your journy so you can enjoy the fabulous nature and the outside pool

Our stay at Aarunya Resort in Sri Lanka was absolutely incredible. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and taken care of. Every detail of the resort is thoughtfully curated, from the beautifully designed rooms to the serene natural surroundings. It truly is the perfect place to disconnect and immerse yourself in nature. The views are breathtaking, and the atmosphere is so peaceful and calming. Whether you’re relaxing by the pool or enjoying the amazing food, every moment feels special. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Pretty much an exceptional hotel & experience. Staff accommodating and courteous. Food outstanding, especially the Sri Lankan breakfast. Room well appointed, modern and clean. Only minor criticism was there were no hand towels, just bath towels and flannels; however, this was resolved quickly by our personal butler. The spa is good, and the view from the infinity pool amazing. If you want to stay in the vicinity of Kandy stay here, it’s amazing!

Aarunya Nature Resort was a wonderful experience. Nestled in the forested hills north of Kandy you really do feel a part of nature, within 5 minutes of checking into our room we were watching birds, lizards and monkeys in the surrounding trees from our balcony. We stayed 5 nights in the Sky Tented room with its private infinity pool that had the most amazing view across the valley and forests. The resort is lovely. It was smaller than I was expecting, but that gives it a personal and intermit feel. The staff couldn’t be more attentive and helpful. The dinning experiences were delightful and after informing the resort, when I booked, that both me and my husband had vegan dietary requirements the chef and staff met the challenge with enthusiasm and smiles and were able to serve us up delicious and interesting (veganised) local dishes for breakfast, lunch and dinner. It is very much appreciated as we know how this can be quite an effort. The elephant excursion we booked through the resort was incredible, with an informative guide and great driver. It was also simple to book a car and driver at the resort to take us down to Kandy Royal Botanic Gardens, which was a surprisingly delightful way to spend a morning without having to travel too far. We were also taken on a nature walk through the resort’s garden where we were shown spices, fruit and the local abundant bird life. Our only regret was that we didn’t book more days there as we passed up a few of the other interesting excursions on offer so as we could spend some more relaxing time enjoying the resort and it’s tranquility.
