Wonderful place to stay in Polonnaruwa that is like home, and everyone there like family. Comfy and full of warmth, the dinner and breakfast are also exceptional. Some of the best food I have tasted in Sri Lanka. A highlight of my trip and a place I will hope to visit again...

A room with a view of the lush garden and a peaceful terrace right in the tranquility of Pollonaruwa. Dinner and breakfast were both delicious. The host was exceptionally helpful, arranging guides for both an elephant safari and a tour of the wonders of the old town temples (both highly recommended); I had some money issues but he was very patient in helping to resolve them.

We were initially a bit sceptical when we saw some negative reviews posted under the property, but we decided to give it a shot. And guys, that was the best thing we did in Sri Lanka! The place was the BEST! We had the most amazing time with our friends! The rooms were super comfy, nice and clean, and the pool was really clean and had the best view. The place felt so homely, and the staff was really helpful! We even went on an "oru safari", which was a safari in the lake, and it was one of the best experiences we had in Sri Lanka. The food was great as well. Some of the best food we had in Sri Lanka. Thank you so much guys, for the amazing experiences, and keep up the good work! Even though it's been a few days since you started, you've got a long way ahead of you! Cheers, and hope to see you again soon! <3

I had wonderful time hear for 3 days, regret I did not book longer, but had to move on. It is a hotel with 13 rooms, but it feels more like a homestay! Everyone , from the owner and his family to the staff were so friendly and helpful beyond expectations. Amazing hospitality. A place you want to go back to. Everyone seems to enjoy their work. The pools are great, taking great care of . Very clean. Thank you for a wonderful stay an help with renting bikes and bus transport. Hope to see you again😊

    Clean, Comfortable, and Family-Friendly – Just Like Our Own Home Our stay at Honey Tree Polonnaruwa was wonderful! The pool was crystal clear and even had a safe area for small children. With only six rooms, the atmosphere was quiet and private — perhaps the only hotel in Polonnaruwa with a pool for such a small number of guests. The rooms were very comfortable, the food was delicious, and the staff were warm and welcoming. Excellent value for money!

    The room was beautiful, with a very nice view of the lake and the bathroom was amazing, the experience of having shower in the middle of the nature is so great! We also enjoy having drinks at night in the beautiful garden in front of the lake. The breakfast and the dinner is delicious. We took a massage and it was so relaxing… a perfect place to enjoy the nature (safaris are quite near) and relax

We really liked the small seating area with the colourful lights around at entering. Breakfast was good. The location is unbelievebly good. This place is well worth the money!

    Half a day was enough as the sun was out and draining.

    Half a day was enough as the sun was out and draining. At the last stop in Polonnaruwa where you have the temple there was a young man sketching and painting. There was also an older gentleman selling Neem & Jamun tree wood containers and tumblers for keeping water in the night and drinking in the morning Neem for better all over health & Jamun for decreasing blood sugar.

    Amazing, smaller national park. More of a wild, intimate experience than it's massively over subscribed cousins. We were in very close contact with a family of elephants, (including baby) for at least 20 mins before another jeep arrived, and then it was only just the two vehicles.

    This is a far better place to stay due to the quality of the resort than in Polonnaruwa. A guest could stay here for many days as the ground are huge and relaxing. Pool and spa are kept spotless by a dedicated person that has been doing ot proudly for over 21 years.

    The ancient city of Polonnaruwa has a lot to offer to the tourists who want to know about the history of Sri Lanka. It has so many ruins and monuments to view, and especially marvel at the stone crafting abilities of ancient Sri Lankans who have created so many buddhist states and artistic monuments by using rocks. Definitely a trip to add to your bucket list.

    The ancient ruins are a wonder to visit. Some great knowledgeable guides available. A few crooks about aggressively selling their Tuk Tuk and bicycle hire to be beware of. Our guide was sadly threatened and intimidated by these bullysome men.
