As the name suggests, it is a retreat in the jungle. There are no windows, and the trees are the natural windows. You can meet squirrels and monkeys, and you are surrounded by the sounds of many birds and insects in the morning and at night. The hotel offers a variety of activities, which can be booked. The beginning of April, when we stayed, was firefly season, and when it rained in the evening, more than a dozen fireflies surrounded our mosquito net.

Daniele and me stayed for 2 night in Back of Beyond Jungle in the Tree House. This is a particular accomodation because u have just a rooftop without walls around; this make you able to have a very immersive experience in the nature. Food was very nice all made at the moment offering nice Sri Lankan food option too. As wildlife photographer we arranged 2 private nocturnal safari in the in the surrounding countryside and forests of Sigiriya. We have to say thank you to our guides Induwara, Ananda and Janaka that accompained us during an immersive 5 hours of night safari from 9 pm to 2 am (we booked a private safari as wildlife photographer, but the arrange also daily group safari for hotel guests). During this experience we could spot also the elusive grey slander Loris and the rare Fishing cat. Thank you Induwara, Ananda and Janaka you give us the chance to have great pictures of notcturnal wildlife in Sigiriya.

I’ve got sick during our vacation and tried to search for contact with back of beyond for 2 days. Tried with multiple numbers but the employee who was appointed for the booking didn’t respond for days. Unbelievable during high season.. when I’ve already needed to withdraw my booking I’ve lost 50 dollars and the only option they gave me was to come back in the future without any costs. A lack of contact and a lack of flexibility, because I’ve already needed to make a booking in the meantime of course. Would not advice any tourist to book with this company

We spent two nights here in a beautiful treehouse. A fantastic experience. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. Domica and his team go above and beyond to make your experience unforgettable. We went on a day and night safari with our guide, Induwara. We saw many different animals, and Induwara is very knowledgeable about them. There's a new restaurant at the lodge where you can get delicious, fresh food and drinks. The staff here are also very friendly and helpful. Highly recommended!

The cottage was basic but clean and comfortable. Meals of local style were served on time and quick. Staff were all friendly and helpful. We took the Minneriya National Park Safari (saw 50 wild elephants very well), Loris Watching (saw 5 loris and a golden jackal in one hour) and Night Safari (saw more loris, elephants, small Indian civet, Asian palm civet, Indian porcupine, Indian hare, spotted deer, white-spotted chevrotain, owl and nightjar).

The most memorable stay in our journey. Truly an amazing experience. I love the stay from start to the end. only issue was poor signal on mobile phone. A foresty feeling & spending the night time is an adventure. They make delicious rice n curry (local food).
