Dream Cliff Mountain Resort

It is an amazing property, the views and surroundings are breathtaking. Staff were lovely with a keen eye for detail. The room was exceptional. Food was really good and service was as expected.

It is a bit off the beaten track but well worth 2/3 nights stay.

Le personnel très aimable

La froideur des chambres

The view and the old guy at concierge.

1. The room was dirty. The floor was covered in black and brown dust, leaving a sticky, filthy residue on my feet when walking. While I understand that locations on a mountain can be dusty, the floors should not be sticky. Furthermore, none of the staff members removed their shoes when entering the room. In the bathroom, they placed the hair conditioner at the hand washing sink instead of inside the shower area. It was very confusing and inconvenient 2. The staff service needs improvement. The young lady at reception was quite moody and emotionally unstable. During dinner, a staff member asked if we were finished after we had only been eating for 20 minutes. We had just paused for a moment to check our phones, and our cutlery was not crossed or placed in a way that indicated we were done. It felt rushed and unprofessional. 3. The food is not tasty.

L’emplacement, la vue, les petites huttes, la piscine … tout

Dreamcliff Mountain Resort is simply stunning. From the moment we arrived, the views over the Sri Lankan hill country and tea estates stopped us in our tracks — genuinely one of the most spectacular locations I’ve ever experienced in any hotel, anywhere in the world. The huts are beautiful — spacious, characterful and incredibly well appointed, but the real showstopper is the balcony. Sitting out there with nothing but mountains, mist and tea estates stretching out as far as the eye can see is something we’ll never forget. It’s the kind of view that makes you stop mid-conversation and just stare. The staff were wonderfully warm and friendly throughout our stay — nothing was too much trouble. The food was excellent, making the most of fresh local ingredients with real care and attention. I proposed to my partner here during our stay, and the hotel team kindly offered to help set things up. In the end, the balcony itself proved to be the most perfect and intimate setting I could have asked for — even better than I’d imagined. It was a moment we’ll treasure for the rest of our lives, and Dreamcliff provided the most magical backdrop for it.

Amazing location and views from the rooms and pool. Recommend booking a king room as I believe the view is stunning. Restaurant is good enough, service excellent.

Some small things were a bit strange, for instance the breakfast that is included was served to the table, yet when I asked for a napkin or small bag to take the rest of the pastries this was “not allowed”. Which is a pity because this food must for sure be wasted then. If it was a buffet, I would understand but in this way it was a bit disappointing. Overall the food at the restaurant was only ok.

The resort is beautiful. And the view awe inspiring The food was really average, very disappointing. Staff not trained well. Said food was gluten free. It had soy sauce in it. Brought gf bread to table in a basket filled with other normal breads so clearly had no idea about cross contamination . Wait staff were either overbearing or underwhelming: our worst stay in Sri Lanka, which is a pity because the location and natural beauty of the area is breathtaking.

Absolutely stunning grounds and views. The pool was a delight and the food was fantastic. Very attentive and welcoming staff. This place felt like a dream indeed!

Nothing

La vue est juste á couper le souffle, avec un 180 sur les montagnes. La piscine á débordement est juste sublime et bonne surprise très belle vue également des petits bungalows. Le personnel est aux petits soins et très accueillant. Je recommande si vous voulez une vue imprenable sur les montagnes.

Cependant la nourriture n'est pas la meilleure que nous avons mangé et le prix un peu cher pour la qualité. Le petit dej était bien et copieux par contre.

Amazing service, best we ever experienced. Great view from wverywhere in the Hotel, including room terrace. Tasty food. Very clean.

In our room the bath room was not totaly disconnected from the bed room (meaning the wall Between them didnt go all the way to the ceiling) which felt very awkward. Also food is pricey for Sri Lanka. Location is 20 min tuktuk ride from Haputale.

נוף משוגע, חדרים מגניבים, ייחודיים, מרווחים ונקיים. בריכת אינסוף מול הנוף. צוות אדיב שמחפש לעזור בכל דבר. שווה כל שקל!

לקחנו חדר עם ג׳קוזי והוא לא עבד בלילה הראשון, אבל נתנו לנו הנחה על הלילה השני. המלון אכן רחוק כשעה מאלה אבל עבורנו זה היה יתרון

Its peaceful,comfortable ,lovely with amazing view .

they shouldn’t allow kids adults only

El entorno es muy bonito

Tuve un problema en mi rodilla pedí una habitación sin tantas escaleras y para cambiarme de habitación me quisieron cobrar una diferencia teniendo encuentra que éramos los únicos huéspedes en todo el hotel

Everything was just perfect. Beautiful, clean room with breathing views. Delicious food with generous portions. Amazing pool overlooking the misty hills. And above all: the most kind, friendly staff. Everyone was so attentive and made us feel so special. We loved being in that resort, thank you for everything.

The view of the hotel is amazing! When you wake up it really is like nothing you have seen before.

As it is in the middle of nowhere and you are in the mountains, there is a lot of bugs which come into the room especially big ants

wow. just wow - amazing place. must-visit place in Sri Lanka, one of the truly most friendly and most welcoming places with stunning view, awesome staff and top management. cant get any better

Very good clean

All good

Alles! Es war einfach traumhaft schön! Der Ausblick jeden Tag, schon beim Aufwachen, mega schön. Pool ist auch wunderbar. Personal sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend, haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt.

Traumhafte Lage,super Aussicht, cooler Pool

- modriger Geruch im Zimmer - teilweise schlechte Qualität beim Abendessen zu echt teuren Preisen (Qualität passt nicht zum Preis)

The view is stunning but also the staff was super friendly.

The place was clean & weather is great also the employees friendly and respectful and nice also the food was delicious .

There is one employee he take us from airport to the resort his drive He was definitely driving recklessly and without any sense of responsibility. He didn't take us on the highway to make our journey easier and more comfortable after the long flight, and he was driving at an insanely high speed. I felt like throwing up several times. And for your information, the manager was with him, and they didn't take into account our tiredness .

Le cadre incroyable, une vue à couper le souffle. Un bengalo tout confort, literie au top . Belle piscine et débordement .

La température fraîche de la piscine, décevant pour ce type d’établissement . Le petit déjeuner continental en dessous des standards .

Hôtel fantastique avec une vue imprenable Une piscine à débordement face a la vallée Un bungalow au calme face a la vallée J’aurai voulu mettre une note de 20……

Absolument tout ! Le cadre Le lieu Les chambres Le restaurant et bar Le personnel au petit soin Le meilleure hôtel du Sri Lanka

Stunning location

The pool was cold

Fantastisch luxe verblijf. Hier ontbreekt je aan werkelijk niets! Zeer professioneel en vriendelijk personeel. Het restaurant is super. Prachtig uitzicht op de vallei vanaf eigen terras en een wonderschoon (infinity)zwembad. De beehive is ongelofelijk origineel.

Werkelijk niets.

The staff was very helpful and accommodating. They would pack a picnic lunch for us on request and help plan our days. Incredible views from the rooms.

Google maps location is not accurate and needs updating

Set in a spectacular location.

Service was a little clumsy. Staff tried hard but wouldn’t give you any space while eating.

Dinner and breakfast super. Location outstanding. Service excellent

The pool had no handrail

Avec une vue incroyable, cet hôtel est bien intégré dans son environnement. Le personnel est super serviable et agréable

La restauration n’est pas au niveau de cet hôtel de qualité

The rooms were unique and comfortable. the views are exceptional. The breakfast very good with traditional & Western

The styling of the reception and dining areas is strange and outdated. The food, wine & cocktails very average for the price of the accommodation.

Alles. Die lage war traumgaft. Alle arrengements abends morgens einfach toll. Freundlichkrit des service, dass esden, klassische konzerte.. unerwartet überraschend

Nichts. Einfach gar nichts.

Fantastisk hotel Fantastisk udsigt Fantastisk personale Fantastisk mad

Der var ingenting at sætte en finger på - aldrig oplevet bedre.

Everything about the property is so good especially the rooms with the view mind blowing

There’s nothing as such

Wauw, wat een prachtig verblijf. Alles was tot in de puntjes verzorgd en helemaal naar wens. Een prachtige kamer, een verbluffend uitzicht, heerlijk eten en ontzettend vriendelijk personeel. Een once-in-a-lifetime ervaring die we nooit zullen vergeten.

Alles was top

Beautiful property in a stunning location

Top locatie, super vriendelijk personeel en prachtige hikes in de omgeving

Nou, het was geen michelin star eten, maar daar was de prijs ook naar

Het waanzinnige uitzicht, de bungalow, de omgeving, de perfect gestylde accommodatie.

Beautiful set-up, making the most of the amazing views. Rooms were very well appointed and comfortable

A friendly and professional welcome from the staff. Location superb with a magnificent vista.

Very little.

The most wonderful staff you could ever imagine.

Incredible views, sounds of nature, relaxing and tranquil stay. Paradise. Staff service was excellent. Food was good with a range of choice. Entertainment every night. Comfy beds, rainfall showers and amazing front porches. Would recommend this resort to anyone!

Curtains and towels are a little bit tired so would be good to have a refresh. Option for massages would probably go down really well in this sort of place

Het uitzicht

Absolutely beautiful location and very kind, polite staff. Everyone was super considerate and they made our stay so comfortable.

Prachtige uitzicht, mooie kamers, vriendelijk personeel!

Er was een storing waardoor de wifi het niet deed. Hier konden ze niks aan doen natuurlijk maar je had ook geen bereik met je eigen telefoon. Dat vond ik vervelend. Het water was tussen lauw en warm in.

Beautiful Mountain View, near center and activities. Modern and spacious room. Plenty of plants to go around the as if you are at a nursery. Great and accommodating staff special thanks to Lalith at the restaurant and the front reception.

Location, relaxing with great Mountain View. Breakfast was very good. Some Construction work is complete yet, but this has no impact on the comfort level.

Tolles Ambiente. Tolle Aussicht. Personal ist bemüht. Abendessen war sehr gut.

Das Hotel ist ziemlich weit weg von allem. Die Pick me App funktioniert dort nicht, was einem vorab keiner sagt. Man kommt also kaum weg vom Hotel, außer man benutzt die überteuerten Taxis die vom Hotel organisiert werden. Bei uns war es ziemlich schwül, da es viel geregnet hat. Die Zimmer haben keine ordentliche Belüftung, weswegen es immer feucht ist im Zimmer und nichts trocknet. Das Frühstück ist auch nicht gerade umfangreich. Es gibt nur die Auswahl zwischen Sri Lankischen (Curry Variationen) oder Kontinentalen (Früchte, Kuchen und Toast, Omlettvariationen) - kein Buffet, es wird einem alles auf den Tisch gestellt. Man kann auch nicht in einer Karte auswählen (außer die Omlettvariationen)

Η τοποθεσία ήταν υπέροχη. Πολύ καλή επιλογή για να ηρεμήσει κάποιος για δυο μέρες ή παραπάνω. Η εξωτερική πισίνα.

Όλα ήταν οκ

Beautiful views, comfortable & clean room with great service from the staff.

Nothing at all

Nice and calm atmosphere, friendly and caring staff, good breakfast choice

Too much white bread for breakfast, too big portions for dinner and no fresh vegetables or salads. There could be some massage and ayrvedic treatment options.

Die Lage ermöglicht einen atemberaubenden Ausblick, das Personal ist großartig.

Beautiful location, facilities and staff are amazing.

Perché sur une falaise donnant sur une vue magnifique, il est génial d'avoir l'impression de se baigner dans les nuages. Tout est merveilleux : de l'accueil attentionné, au confort des habitations et à leur beauté architecturale, le dîner et les petits déjeuners sont délicieux, la grande taille de la piscine qui permet de se rafraîchir. La douche est très grande et les produits sont très agréables et sentent très bon.

La piscine un peu trop froide. Il pourrait être intéressant que les produits de toilette puissent être proposés à la vente ou bien que les références et la provenance des produits de toilette soient écrit pour que nous puissions les acheter quelque part

Outstanding views and pool.Desigm locally infused and delicious food.Staff at your fingertips without even asking a question Definitely up there with most beautiful hotels I have stayed.

Monkey knocking on door in night he he

The service was exceptional and the view was amazing. The food was good and the restaurant had live music. The rooms were a good size and the bathrooms were big.

It didn't have a gym, or an open gym nearby. The hives have odd acoustics but it was more funny than bad.

We stayed at the most wonderful hotel, and it honestly exceeded every expectation we had. From the very beginning, the manager went out of his way to help us organize our trips and make sure everything ran smoothly. He took his time to talk to us, offer advice, and make sure we were comfortable with every plan — something you don’t often experience in hotels. Our server, Ranawada (apologies if I got the name slightly wrong), was absolutely amazing. He was always so kind, attentive, and full of interesting stories about the food and the local culture. Every meal felt special, not just because the dishes were different each day and always delicious, but because they were served with such care and pride. Throughout our stay, we were surprised again and again by so many thoughtful gestures — both big and small. From the warm smiles to the little details that showed how much the staff truly cared, it all made us feel at home. Their attention to detail and genuine kindness were unforgettable. The rooms were beautiful, spotless, and so comfortable, and the location couldn’t have been better — peaceful and scenic. It’s rare to find a place where every single person seems to genuinely want you to be happy. Leaving was honestly bittersweet — I was ready to go home, but it was hard to say goodbye to the wonderful people who made our stay so special. We will remember this experience for a long time and recommend this hotel with all our hearts.❤️

The service, attention and location, facilities and vista were just stunning!

Having booked for two nights nine months prior to be bumped down to one night was simply unprofessional. Having worked in international hotel resort hospitality, you just don’t do that. Still, an amazing experience.

The most beautiful views of our whole trip were at Dream Cliff and the two pools are just magical all day but especially at sunset. Excellent and kind staff will help with anything you need. The rooms, all little 'hives' are very private and spacious, with each having stunning views all the way to the south coast of Sri Lanka.

Naprosto výjimečně místo. Nádherný výhled. Přátelský personál. S manželskou jsme si velmi odpočinuli! A kvalita zážitku odpovídá ceně.

Byli jsme tam příliš krátce.

Struttura splendida, panorama mozzafiato, personale accogliente, gentile e disponibile e premuroso

Delle tre stanze, una aveva un livello di pulizia non adeguato agli standard di una struttura di questo tipo (water infestato di formiche, odore maleodorante, ragni nel letto) Le altre 2 stanze erano pulite

Le lieu la vue Les chambres atypiques même si un peu petite

La non facilité d accès

Friendly staff.Manager - Raphael offered us exceptional hospitality. Breath taking location with an awesome pool.Food was splendid.Dream cliff does give u something to dream about.

Nothing in particular

We werden heel warm, persoonlijk en professioneel ontvangen. De staff was zeer attent zonder heel aanwezig te zijn. Er hangt een sfeer die je zeker helpt te ontspannen en het team levert inspanningen om het verblijf op je noden af te stemmen.

Geen opmerkingen op dit vlak

During our two-week trip to Sri Lanka, we stayed at over eight hotels, and this one was by far one of our favorites. Despite its somewhat remote location, everything from the staff to the room, pool, and food was exceptional - definitely a 10/10 experience. The staff, in particular, stood out with their professionalism and attentiveness, from the reception team to the waiters and even the security guard. We genuinely enjoyed our stay here!

Nothing, it was a great stay overall.

Mooi kamers, goed bedden, eeten was top
