Provider-sourced guest reviews.
The view is incredible, the most beautiful location we stayed in Sri Lanka. The room was spacious and clean.
The overall ambience was great with super view from every rooms.
From the moment I booked the cabins to the time we left, the hospitality from Inthizar and his brother was outstanding. They welcomed us to their cabins with the warmth you'd get from visiting family. They made every effort to make the visit homely, they even took us to an amazing view point to see the sunset in our first night. The food they prepared for us was to our taste and beautifully cooked. The views from our room were just breathe taking, straight from our bed. It was a perfect stay, we would return in a heartbeat. Thank you Inthizar and your team for making our stay perfect.
Couldn't stay there longer.
The host was fabulous, so caring. He looked after everything and help us having a wonderful staying. I also organized a wonderful tea tour for us and everything we wanted to do or see. Such an amazing location and great experience. Can’t wait to go there again 🙏
Breathtaking Mountain Setting: Living right in the jungle with spectacular views directly from the rooms. Watching the clouds and greenery from our balcony was unforgettable. Exceptional Hospitality: The entire staff, alongside the wonderful hosts and owners, treated us like family and made our stay incredibly special. Incredible Food: The authentic, home-cooked Sri Lankan meals were absolutely delicious and easily a highlight of our trip. Peaceful Atmosphere: While parts of the property are still under construction, it caused absolutely no noise or interference with our stay.
Location & Transport: The resort is located a bit outside of central Kandy, so you will need to plan for transport to get to nearby sights. However, the hosts are incredibly accommodating and will gladly help you arrange rides if you haven't booked a driver beforehand.
Sehr schöne Unterkunft, mitten in den Bergen mit traumhafter Aussicht, freundliches Personal, sauberes Zimmer, gutes Frühstück und Abendessen
Preis-Leistungs Verhältnis für Sri Lanke etwas teurer wie üblich
Wir haben bereits viele Hotels auf der ganzen Welt besucht, aber so ein außergewöhnliches Haus findet man nur selten. Die Lage ist traumhaft, mit einem atemberaubenden Ausblick, einem perfekten Sonnenaufgang und das gesamte Hotelpersonal war unglaublich herzlich und aufmerksam. Besonders hervorheben möchten wir den Hotelmanager – er war mit Abstand der beste auf unserer gesamten Sri‑Lanka‑Reise. Immer freundlich, hilfsbereit und engagiert. Er hat uns bei der Kommunikation mit Fahrern unterstützt und ist sogar persönlich mit uns zu einer lokalen Teefabrik gefahren – ein Erlebnis, das wir jedem Gast wärmstens empfehlen können. Einfach nur vielen herzlichen Dank für den unvergesslich Aufenthalt. Wenn wir wieder nach Sri Lanka reisen, wissen wir ganz genau, wohin wir zurückkehren werden, wärmstens jedem zu empfehlen!
Gar Nichts
We had the most incredible stay at The Cloud Resort it truly exceeded every expectation. From the moment we arrived, the hospitality was absolutely outstanding. The team made us feel so welcome and cared for throughout our entire stay, and nothing was ever too much trouble. A special mention has to go to Inthizar, who went above and beyond for us. He kindly took us to watch the most breathtaking sunset a moment we’ll never forget and even days after we had checked out, he was still helping us with recommendations and support. That level of genuine care is so rare and made our experience incredibly special. The room itself was beautiful spotless, comfortable, and perfectly designed to make the most of the stunning surroundings. Waking up to those views felt like something out of a dream. And the food… wow. Absolutely incredible. Every meal was full of flavour, beautifully presented, and clearly made with so much care. It was honestly some of the best food we’ve had during our time in Sri Lanka. This place is more than just a hotel — it’s an experience. The combination of breathtaking views, amazing food, and truly heartfelt hospitality makes it somewhere we will always remember. We cannot recommend it highly enough and would return in a heartbeat.
We loved everything
We had a lovely stay at the cloud resort. The view is really stunning with a sunrise watch directly from bed!! The food is amazing and the manager and staff so incredibly friendly and caring. We really enjoyed our time to the fullest. It was also perfect for our 5 month old baby. Make sure to stay there when being around the Candy area. 10/10 recommendation!
A wonderful stay at The Cloud Resort We had a fantastic stay at The Cloud Resort in Sri Lanka. The hotel is truly charming and located in an exceptional place on a cliff, surrounded by beautiful nature and stunning views. One of the highlights was watching the breathtaking sunrises and sunsets from this unique location – absolutely unforgettable. The owner is incredibly kind, welcoming, and helpful. He went out of his way to make our stay special and even prepared a birthday cake for our son, which was a very thoughtful and touching gesture. The food at the hotel was excellent. Everything we tried was delicious, but the shrimp omelette deserves a special mention – it was simply outstanding. If you are looking for a peaceful, scenic place with great hospitality and amazing food, we highly recommend The Cloud Resort. It’s a place we would happily return to.
Everything ! Hospitality Food View Comfort Cleanliness Vibe
Nothing. Everything for perfect.
We loved everything about this property! It is a very magical place, the host goes above and beyond to make you comfortable and feel at home as well as offering excursions. We will definitely return again one day!
This is a little slice of heaven up in the hills with absolutely incredible views. The sunrise here alone is worth the journey. There is so much creativity in the buildings and the owners were very accommodating, they offered to take us on sunset hikes , tea factory tours as well as cater to our food preferences. The pool wasn’t finished being built yet but you could see how stunning it will be once finished.
I would say you must like the outdoors and nature; this place gives a high level glamping feeling. There are also quite a few steps to get to the rooms so just something to note.
The Overall stay was amazing. The room, the location, the view and especially the hotel manager Mr. Intihzar. He will make your stay very fulfilling. I was amazed to see his hospitality and management. It was an amazing experience. The Room was exceptionally clean. The breakfast was amazing, English or Sri Lankan but the taste of the food was out of this world.
I loved everything.
прекрасное место, очень вкусная еда, замечательные виды, великолепный персонал 🥺
The breakfast and dinner were very generous and absolutely delicious. The place is beautiful, cozy, and very comfortable. Inthizar is truly a caring host who genuinely looks after the well-being of his guests. We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend it.
Потрясающее место, где природа и сервис идеально дополняют друг друга. Панорамное окно в домике — это отдельный вид медитации, горы буквально становятся частью интерьера. Но что действительно поразило — это отношение. Менеджер сделал всё, чтобы мы чувствовали себя самыми дорогими гостями; такой уровень искренней заботы и вовлеченности я встречаю впервые. Идеальное сочетание уединения и безупречного сервиса
Отличный отель, на вершине горы. Были семьей на одну ночь, снимали 2 домика. Забронировали день в день, связались по телефону с хозяином, попросили приготовить ужин, он любезно согласился. Поехал в город за продуктами и сказал что подождёт нас там, чтоб проводить к отелю. По пути в отель за 20 км у нас сломался автомобиль, мы сообщили это ему и он приехал за нами и забрал нас 4-х и 2 все наши чемоданы пакеты и сумки🤦🏻♂️. За это отдельное Спасибо! Созвонился с практикой компанией и договорился чтоб ключи от сломанной машины они забрали из отеля. Ночью забрали ключи и утром нам пригнали к отелю новый автомобиль, тот починить не успели)) Персонал в отеле очень клиентоориентирован. Завтрак очень вкусный, мы вечером отметили что дочь не есть омлет, ей приготовили что то свое(не помню уже). По приезду лил дождь стеной. К машине подбежали 2 парня с зонтами и нам всех вывели под крышу. У собственника большие планы, 9 домиков построено еще строит 6 уже с бассейнами и отдельно кафе с сауной. Будет строить вертолетную площадку, так как добираться чуть чуть не удобно и я думаю цену из за этого сильно не поднять, а когда будет еще один способ туда попасть, то это уже совсем другие клиенты и цена соответственно. Вообщем спасибо за отличный прием и отдых.
Чуть чуть можно уделить внимание чистоте. В отеле идет стройка в 9 утра строители начинают работать, кто любит поспать может не понравится это, но они прям откровенно не стучат ( но разговаривают) но они такие же приветливые и любезные как весь персонал в отели.
What an absolutely stunning place this is. We wanted to stay a lot longer. Set up in the hills away from the hubbub of Kandy, is this tranquil place surrounded by nature, yet only a 35 minute tuk tuk ride from the city. The room is outstanding and has a glass wall so you can lay in bed and see the beautiful sunrise in the morning. There is a large platform to chill and enjoy the monkeys playing in the morning. The food was exquisite, we had breakfast and dinner in our room and also in the restaurant. The chef is terrific. The real highlight of this hotel is inthizar who runs it. He could not have done more for us and even took us out for the day, showed us plants, herbs and banana's! (Who knew there were so many different varieties!) The tea factory he took us to was really intimate and we had a really immersive experience there, which was so much better than a big tea plantation tour. He also took us to a temple which we would never have found on our own. An absolute gem of a place from the room, the nature, the staff, the food and of course Inthi. We would stay here again in a heartbeat
Nothing, everything was amazing
Stupendous, panoramic mountain views. Luxurious accommodation and exceptional food. Our host was helpfulness personified.
On the expensive side by Sri Lankan standards but we got what we paid for.
Man kann von diesem Resort einfach nur schwärmen. Es war unsere erste Unterkunft in Sri Lanka nach unserer Ankunft. Die Lage ist traumhaft schön und entspricht genau den Bildern. Inthizar hat sich zwei Tage Zeit für uns genommen und uns die gesamte Umgebung gezeigt. Wir hätten kaum mehr Glück haben können als diese Begegnung mit ihm. Wir haben viel von Land und Leute erfahren. Auch Amejd und Imantha waren unglaublich freundlich und zuvorkommen und haben uns jeden Wunsch erfüllt. Und dann das Essen von Dulfi- einfach ein Traum. Ungelogen haben wir auf unserer gesamten Sri Lanka Reise bisher nie ein vergleichbar köstliches Curry genossen. Alles frisch zubereitet und unheimlich würzig- wir werden ewig davon träumen und freuen uns auf eine Wiederkehr! Vielen dank dem ganzen Team für diesen wunderschönen Aufenthalt!
Wir Hatten eine unglaublich schöne Zeit im The Cloud Resort. Die Zimmer sind sehr geräumig, mit Liebe gestaltet und sehr gepflegt. Der Ausblick morgens aus dem Bett ist atemberaubend, das Essen ist super vielfältig und kreativ und so so lecker, es wird auf individuelle Bedürfnisse bzgl Essen Rücksicht genommen und allgemein ist die Atmosphäre hier einwenig wie als würde man nach Hause kommen. Inthizar ist ein unglaublich toller Gastgeber, der authentisch versucht alles möglich zu machen was man sich wünscht, der voller Stolz und mit der viel Wissen einen auf kleine Abenteuer in der Gegend mitnimmt und auch sonst bei allen Angelegenheiten sofort zur Seite steht. Es kommt hier von Herzen Menschen eine gute Zeit zu bereiten. Rundum also eine absolute Empfehlung!! Vielen Dank für diese tolle Zeit hier, wir werden in jedem Fall wiederkommen, wenn wir nochmal auf Sri Lanka sein werden!
The host was fabulous and so caring, he looked after everything I could need and would arrange anything that I wanted to do or see. Such an amazing location and great experience!
We stayed at The Cloud Resort 2 nights and we didn't want to leave... Inthizar, the host, is very friendly, kind and thoughtful. On the road to the resort he sent us all the instructions so that we could find our way to the place, called us to make sure we don't get lost and even sent one of the staff members to meet us when we did get a little lost 😅 On our first day he showed us around the resort and told us about his plans for further extension and development of the territory (hope, they'll manage to turn them all into reality). He also brought us to a tea factory and to view point to see the sunset, where he took some nice pictures of us. The breakfasts we had were all homemade and delicious as well as the dinners. On our last evening the host and his team organised a dinner with candles for us on the terrace of our lodge 😊 And the views - of course, they are breathtaking. Misty mountains and green valleys in the morning, you can watch the sun rising right from the rocking bed in the lodge (that lulls you softly at night) or from the sunbeds on the terrace. Apes, mongooses and birds come right to the terrace in the morning, so you can watch them in their natural life. All in all, we're stunned by the beauty and serenity of the place, we'd definitely come back!
Epic views and surrounded by nature and wildlife The cabins are incredible too Wi-Fi good Food excellent
Breakfast was exceptional. The hotel provided us generous amount of food and everything was very tasty. The View from the room and the premise was stunning.
Uitzicht en personeel die heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam waren 👌♥️
The Cloud Resort was one of our last stays in Sri Lanka and, by far, the best one (and all the others were already good). Would give a 100 if I could. 1) The view from the restaurant and room was unbeatable. Animals (monkeys, plenty of birds, and mongoose) were daily visitors. 2) The food served (breakfast and dinner) was by far the best! We probably had the most extravagant rice and curry on our journey, with passion fruit leaves sombol and breadfruit curry (which we had never had before and were totally excited about the taste). In my opinion, the quality is comparable to that of high-class restaurants. 3) the owner was very polite and warm-hearted. Good English skills made communication very easy. We visited a tea factory (at no extra charge), took a very nice tour of its own „spice garden,“ and went to a sunset point. We felt very welcome. 4) also important of sri Lanka: stable WiFi (!, also for work (eg web conferences) and streaming) hot shower, AC! 5)family friendly! We've been there with our 2.5yo son. Everyone looked after him and played with him. If we had known about this place before, we would have skipped (busy, loud, smoggy) Kandy and stayed here longer. Since Kandy is not that far from The Cloud Resort (and, except for the tooth temple, has little to see), a day trip to Sigeriya, Dambulla, Kandy, and Pinnewala Elephant Orphanage can also be done from the Cloud. We will come back!

We had an absolutely unforgettable stay in this stunning mountain accommodation, with a breathtaking view directly from the bed. We spent two nights there and were lucky enough to admire the sunrise twice without even leaving our room — a truly magical and timeless moment. The terrace is also beautiful and perfect for relaxing while enjoying the scenery. Inthizar is an extraordinary host. He cooks everything on site, from breakfast to dinner, preparing delicious local food with great passion. He even surprised us with a romantic dinner on the terrace, which was an unforgettable experience. We spent two lovely evenings chatting with him and two other travelers, as the atmosphere was so warm and the company so pleasant. This place is by far the best accommodation of our entire trip, both for its beauty and for the exceptional hospitality. As a little extra, a swimming pool is currently under construction, which will make this place even more amazing. Thank you so much, Inthizar. We will definitely come back. Marvin & julie
Lovely staff at the hotel who were very helpful and took us to a nearby tea factory which was great! Food was absolutely delicious. We got upgraded to an a frame room which was amazing and we spent a lot of time in the room, but if we were in our original room (the hobbit) then we might’ve struggled as the communal areas are all outdoors and it was rainy!
Bathroom is a wet room which meant water went everywhere and then stayed quite damp!
We had a truly amazing time at the cloud resort! The place has stunning views and is the perfect place to relax and wind down. The staff is very hospitable, diligent and kind. The food is 100% homemade and scrumptiously delicious. The beds are comfortable. I highly recommend this place and definitely want to come back. It was a perfect start for our holidays.
Виды просто супер! Владельцы и персонал молодцы. Завтраки и ужины - мммм, очень вкусно!
The owner was so attentive and caring, went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable - from cooking and serving food in our beautiful room, to letting us borrow his kitten for a few hours, to offering a hike to see the sunset. Such a beautiful location, it is simply wonderful!
Amazing location with stunning views
Nothing
Потрясающее место! Невероятные виды, чистота в домах. Хозяин вкладывает душу в это место. Номер с террасой и кроватью на веревках просто шикарен. Прямо к двери приходят обезьяны, если предложишь им лакомство. Завтрак на выбор местный или европейский, все очень вкусно! Ужин тоже всегда можно попросить приготовить ко времени. Inthisar продолжает строить и развивать свой объект, даже домик Хоббита сделал! Желаем ему успеха и благополучия! Спасмбо за теплый прием и впечатления на год вперед))
The host was incredibly friendly and the food was amazing.
Tout était parfait. L’hôte ainsi que collaborateurs nous ont super bien reçu !
This place is magical. We stayed for 1 night but could have stayed forever. The host Inthizar and his team were so accommodating. The views are incredible, dinner was exquisite as was breakfast. We woke up to a family of monkeys who were great fun to watch for a few hours whilst relaxing in the morning. Do NOT miss this place, it's beautiful and will stay with you forever. TIP - stop on the way to grab some beer as they don't have alcohol. They went out specially for us 🍀
Nothing. Everything was perfect.
We stayed 1 night at the cloud, the views were absolutely amazing inside the room and outside of the room. The owner was very attentive even before we arrived at the cloud, really spent his time engaging with you about the surroundings, the resort and the spices and tea in the area. He couldn’t have done enough for you. Always at the end of the phone and even when we had left he wanted to know if we had reached our next destination safely due to the weather conditions and still was available if we needed anything. We had dinner in the room which was a traditional Sri Lankan dinner which was very yummy. We had a little family of lizards in the room which was equally lovely to hear them, could see bats flying outside catching the flies which was nice to watch. In the morning we were greeted by a gang of monkeys which was funny to watch and get some great pictures as they come up to the windows.
Nothing
The communication was excellent even before we arrived. Inthizar our host was so helpful with quick responses and perfect English. Even during extreme weather conditions we were very well looked after with personalised meals cooked for us. Travel organised and made to feel very safe.
We were there during a cyclone so the whole country was in a disaster but we were so well looked after and all the staff were very kind and helpful to us.
The view was breathtaking - I just wish the rain cleared up for us to see the stars. This unique place really felt special. One thing I wish the place had is a dehumidifier. Because of the humidity, it does feel a bit stuffy so a dehumidifier would help make the place feel and smell clean.
The leaks we had through the ceiling when it rained and the mildew smell we had due to the humidity which made the place feel stuffy.
Our stay at The Cloud Resort was truly exceptional and exceeded all expectations. The location is breathtaking, with panoramic mountain views and a serene atmosphere that makes you feel as if you are floating above the clouds. It is the perfect place for anyone seeking peace, inspiration, and a meaningful connection with nature. The nights were just as magical, offering clear skies perfect for stargazing, which added a memorable and romantic touch to the experience. The hospitality was one of the highlights of our stay. I want to give special appreciation to Inthizar, the manager, for his warm personality, genuine care, and remarkable attention to detail. He consistently went above and beyond to ensure we felt comfortable, welcomed, and well cared for. The entire team was equally kind, attentive, and dedicated, making us feel valued throughout our stay. The rooms are beautifully designed, exceptionally clean, and thoughtfully arranged to maximize comfort and scenic enjoyment. The relaxing ambiance, fresh air, and thoughtful layout make it ideal for unwinding and truly connecting with the surroundings. The property also has Wi-Fi, which was convenient as I work remotely while still enjoying a peaceful retreat. The food was delicious, freshly prepared, and served with great care, reflecting the resort’s passion for genuine hospitality and memorable dining experiences. Overall, The Cloud Resort offers a rare combination of natural beauty, exceptional service, and an atmosphere that encourages deep relaxation and appreciation. I would highly recommend it to anyone visiting Sri Lanka and would absolutely love to return.
Unser Aufenthalt im Cloud Resort von Inthizar war wirklich außergewöhnlich. Wir haben 4 Nächte in einer der A-Frame Cabins verbracht. Von Anfang bis Ende haben wir uns wirklich wohl gefühlt. Inthizar hat uns vieles aus der Umgebung gezeigt, egal ob Gewürzshops, Teefabriken oder lokale Restaurants. Für uns die perfekte Mischung aus viel Ruhe und etwas erleben. Die Unterkunft ist perfekt zum Runterkommen und Erholen, da sie fast auf der Spitze einen Berges im Dorf Kadugannawa liegt. Shops, Restaurants und Einkaufsmöglichkeiten befinden sich nur 3,5km die Straße runter. Inthizar sorgt aber unerlässlich dafür, dass es einem an nichts fehlt. Eröffnet wurde das Resort vor knapp 3 Jahres und expandiert noch. So wird zum Beispiel noch die Rezeption und der Pool, sowie andere Cabins gebaut, was aber absolut nicht gestört hat. Die Mitarbeiter von Inthizar waren zuvorkommend, freundlich und sofort zur Stelle, wenn man etwas gebraucht hat. Das Essen, sowie die Drinks die Inthizar organisiert und zubereitet, sind exzellent. Die Cabin selber ist mit Liebe von den Eigentümern selber gestaltet und es fehlt an nichts. Da es mitten in der Natur liegt, muss man gelegentlich damit rechnen, sich die Cabin mit 1,2 Geckos zu teilen, die aber brav an ihrem Teil der Decke bleiben. Sowie Ameisen, gegen die Inthizar aber schon sein bestes gib. Nichts was unseren Aufenthalt geschmälert hat. Von vorne bis hinten der perfekte Aufenthalt und ein Erlebnis, was uns in Erinnerung bleibt.
Best manager who kindly looked after us during our stay.
Beautiful property. Owner and staff are extremely helpful and friendly.

This is our second visit to Cloud Resort. It's such a beautiful location with incredible views. It was the perfect getaway for a relaxing weekend. Inthizar and his team are friendly and so attentive to guests' needs. The food was delicious too. Highly recommend!
The view from our bedroom was absolutely unbelievable, especially from our very comfortable hanging bed. The brothers that own and run the resort are fantastic, so interesting and full of knowledge. They delivered delicious food to our room. Their communication was excellent and they couldn’t have done more to help us.
There really was nothing to not love about this place high up above the clouds.
Amazing view from the villa. Nice and cosy room.
Vue incroyable Accueil tres agreable et personnalisé Repas delicieux Un beau moment suspendu au dessus des nuages
- Endroit magique dans les montagnes - Personnel au petit soin, passionné, gentil, attentionnée et plein d’anecdotes sur la faune et la flore environnante. Un grand merci à Inthizar qui a illuminé notre séjour ! - Cuisine délicieuse et copieuse - Chambres très spacieuses et propres
Tikriausiai pradėčiau nuo įspūdingo vaizdo pro kambario langus, kur atsiveria nerealaus grožio panorama 🗻ir beždžionės 🐒❤️ Gavome viską ko reikėjo, wifi, europietišką adapterį, kondicionierių ir didelę, patogią lovą. Maistas eupietiškas, toks kaip namie. Personalas aukšto lygio, super komunikacija, visada glaudžiame ryšyje, puiki anglų kalba. Gavome net lauktuvių arbatos 😍
Gana toli nuo lankytinų vietų, tačiau personalas padeda susiorganizuoti išvykas. Padeda susirasti geriausia kaina transportą ir suplanuoja visos dienos eigą. 👫
Wir waren zu viert mit 2 Kindern hier und es war der Wahnsinn! Ein unglaublich zuvorkommender und liebevoller Host, der einem wortwörtlich die Welt zu Füßen legt mit diesen unfassbar tollen Zimmern über den Wolken. Zudem ist er unglaublich bemüht und begeistert einem den perfekten Aufenthalt zu ermöglichen, ob mit Frühstück auf dem Zimmer oder in dem er seine Kontakte spielen lässt und einem eine Privatführung in einer Teefabrik ermöglicht. Neben dem ist er sehr naturverbunden und kann einem ganz viel über die Kräuter und Gewürzwelt Sri Lankas berichten, da relativ viel in der Umgebung wächst. Alle Daumen 👍

חוויה מדהימה!! נוף מהמם הבעלים מקסים מבשל טעים מקום מטריף ומומלץ.
האמת שהכל היה מושלם, הדבר היחיד שאם ילדים קטנים זה טיפה קשה מבחינה בטיחותית
I had a great experience staying at this resort. The place was very clean and beautifully maintained. The view from my room was absolutely breathtaking – I couldn’t get enough of it! The staff were incredibly friendly, respectful, and professional. Their excellent service really made my stay even more enjoyable. I would definitely recommend this resort to anyone, and I’d love to come back again!
Panoramiczne okna z widokiem na góry, kolacja
Jeden z najlepszych hoteli na Sri Lance - zarowno kolacja, jak i sniadaine, byly bardzo pyszne, wlasciciel zadbal o wszystkie wygody, sluzyl rada w zwiazku z podrozowaniem, zabral nas na wspanialy hike na zachod slonca i przy okazji opowiadal o roslinach i drzewach, ktore rosly dookola.
Widok niesamowity, właściciel obiektu bardzo sympatyczny i pomocny.
A wonderful place in the middle of nature, beautiful views, silence, delicious breakfast in the room. The view is breathtaking!
The staff and the service they provided was excellent. All our requirements were provided for and they truly went out of their way to make sure that we were comfortable. The food we opted for was the Sri Lankan meals, and they were excellent. The views from the room were amazing and added great value to a great stay.
Le Cloud resort est un paradis absolument incroyable. Nous n'avons jamais vu un tel endroit. La vue est éblouissante d'où que l'on soit et à toute heure du jour et de la nuit. Nous avons eu beaucoup de mal à quitter notre chambre pour nous balader dans les alentours tant nous nous y sentions bien. Au delà de cette vue inouïe, la chambre est très bien et très belle, d'une propreté irréprochable et la literie est excellente. Cerise sur le gâteau, les repas que nous y avons pris sont sans doute les meilleurs de notre voyage. Mention spéciale à l'équipe dont le propriétaire qui a tout fait pour que nous nous sentions au mieux à nous arranger, avant même notre arrivée et malgré notre départ matinal. Il est très sympathique, parle un anglais parfait donc la communication est très simple et il a à cœur de donner ses meilleurs conseils et ses anecdotes aux voyageurs. C'était une chance et un vrai plaisir de le côtoyer. Bref, vous ne trouverez pas meilleur endroit !
Everything about this property is exceptional. The Mountain View rooms, with their full glass windows and private patio seating, offer breathtaking views and beautifully curated interiors. The serene, secluded setting, away from the main town and that was exactly what I was looking for, surrounded only by the soothing sounds of nature and birdsong. Wi-Fi is not available, which was perfectly fine for me, as it added to the peaceful, unplugged experience. The staff were incredibly courteous, prompt, and attentive, ensuring we had everything we needed throughout our stay. A special mention to Mr. Inthizar, the owner and host, whose warmth, helpfulness, and genuine hospitality truly set this place apart. He went above and beyond, not only ensuring our stay was comfortable, but also helping with taxis, sharing local tips, and even guiding us during our trip after we had checked out. If I could, I’d give this place 11 out of 10 stars. Highly recommended for anyone seeking calm, scenic, and heartwarming hospitality away from city’s chaos.
Nothing, everything was exceptional.
Widok niezapomniany. Coś wspaniałego, życzliwość właściciela - niesamowita. Rozmowy o wszystkim bardzo przyjemne. Polecam z całego serca.
very nice view, great host, good food
If you read this review, please book this place asap!! This place is amazing in some many ways. The food was excellent, the view amazing and the rooms perfect. We stayed here for two nights and almost cancelled our hotel in Ella just to stay here a bit longer. So relaxing and so mind blowing. Rooms are clean and modern. Loved them! The host was the best! Spoke perfectly English, friendly and communication was very easy. The same with the staff. We travelled as a family of 6 (4kids) and the kids did not want to leave the place. The breakfast was stunning. Never seen my daughter eat so many banana pancakes before. They also cooked dinner for us. The location of the resort is a bit far from the city of Kandy, but for us that was not a problem.
Nothing!
We were lucky enough to stay at The Cloud Resort as our first stop in Sri Lanka. This place is not just a hotel, it is an experience. Our favorite place to stay in Sri Lanka by far. We can't rate it highly enough. We stayed in the King's Cabin. The room is spacious and comfortable. The views are more amazing than the photos, and it was breathtaking to wake up in the morning to the nature and sunrise in the hanging bed. Even though there are multiple units on the property, it felt private and relaxing. What makes the stay truly the best was the staff who added a personal touch to the whole experience. Inthizar, the property manager, was out of town, so we were welcomed by his brother, Ahmed. Ahmed took us around the local area including a beautiful tea factory, grocery, and local spice shop (we love to cook). He also suggested beautiful and relaxing walks, shared some local history and their passion for supporting the local community, and truly went over and above anything we would have ever expected to help make our stay unforgettable. The rest of the staff was just as amazing. Amjaad, the service manager, was incredibly friendly, and no request was too small for him. Zulfi, the chef, crafted the best custom meals, taking into account our dietary preferences (vegan). The food was not just the best food we had throughout our trip in Sri Lanka, but some of the best we've had ever. Zulfi is a master, and the meals felt truly made with love using local ingredients and methods. If the Michelin guide was in Sri Lanka, it would feature this property! From the hearty welcome to fond farewell, everyone made this place special.
We had a lovely stay and felt genuinely welcomed by the owner and his team. They were extremely kind and helpful from the moment we arrived—the owner even invited us to visit a tea factory, which was a thoughtful touch. On arrival, the team helped park our TUK TUK and carried our luggage to the room, which we really appreciated after a long journey. The food was absolutely delicious, and it was a real plus to be able to enjoy dinner and breakfast directly in the room—both meals were excellent.
The property doesn’t offer Wi-Fi, which can be a bit inconvenient these days, especially when trying to plan your next steps or stay in touch with family. It would also be great if they offered the option to buy wine or beer with meals. The hot water was a bit inconsistent, so we ended up taking quick showers.
Our favourite stay in Sri Lanka. A perfect 2 nights at this amazing resort. We throughly enjoyed our time here. We came after a busy time with trips in Ella and it was the perfect place to relax with gorgeous views. All the staff were so friendly and accommodating to whatever we needed. The food was great and catered for my partners gluten free allergies which was really appreciated. The room is great, had a comfortable bed, a fridge, space to eat and deck chairs to use on the decking too to enjoy the view from outside. Whilst we preferred to relax in our room mostly give the short period we stayed here, there is also the option to do a number of complimentary trips to a spot for sunset, the nearby tea factory etc if you wish.
Very little to say really only that we would have appreciated additional water coming at mealtimes given the remoteness of the property meaning it’s not so easy to fetch yourself. Having said that this was swiftly provided upon request.
The view was absolutely breathtaking! Very friendly staff
the only thing that could’ve made our stay more comfortable would’ve been access to Wi-Fi.
The owner of the hotel took care of us even before arrival, making sure we will arrive safe. The hotel itself has breathtaking views, you really feel like walking in clouds. The hotel team makes sure all you request are handled quickly and efficiently. The rooms are very spacious, and some of them have absolutely stunning viewing decks that allow you to enjoy the view while having dinner. The location of the hotel makes sure it is absolutely quiet, and you will be undisturbed, but you need the car/taxi to get there.
I had a perfect stay at The Clouds Resort Kadugannawa. The location offers a stunning view—absolutely breathtaking and peaceful. Every detail of the resort was just right, making it a truly relaxing experience. A special mention to Amjaad for his excellent service—friendly, attentive, and always willing to help. The owner was also very involved and genuinely cared about guest comfort, which made us feel well looked after. Great service, beautiful surroundings, and a warm atmosphere. Highly recommended!
That was one of the most amazing and unordinary stay in my life. And working in a tourism I’ve been staying in many hotels all over the world. The view from the room is awe-inspiring. The air here is so clean, fresh, and filled with the scents of flowers and trees that you can't get enough of it. I was sitting on the balcony for several hours, unable to take my eyes off the views of the mountains around me. The room itself was very comfortable to stay in, excellent bed linen and pillows gave me a feeling of comfort while sleeping. The manager of the property Inthizar was very hospitable, showed us the entire territory of the hotel, told us the story of its creation, that many things in the interior were made by his father's hands. In the morning, he took us to the tea factory (which works here for more than 70 years already), where we had a fascinating tour of the tea production and tasting of various varieties of tea. Then he took us to the local market, where we bought fresh fruits. It was a pity to leave the hotel, one night is not enough to enjoy all the charm of living in THE CLOUDS BTW, The drive from the center of Kandy took us around 50 minutes, the navigator finds the location without any problems, the entrance is very convenient
No wi-fi
The rooms are incredible. Amazing views created by these very uniquely designed structures! Food was delicious and very authentically Sri Lankan. The host, Inthizar, was so attentive and so helpful. Offered great flexibility and even took us on a tour of a local tea factory. Couldn’t have been nicer. Amazing value for money!
Nothing, it was beautiful.
Our experience at this hotel was nothing short of extraordinary. From our room, we saw a double rainbow stretching across the sky—one of those rare, magical moments that made the already stunning view even more unforgettable. Every sunrise and sunset felt like a gift. What really made our stay so special, though, was the owner. When we had a medical situation, he personally took us to the hospital—no questions asked. Throughout our visit, he went above and beyond, even for the smallest things. He helped with genuine care, always doing his absolute best, and you could feel how sincere he was. The food was another highlight. It wasn’t fancy or over the top—it was just really good, honest cooking made with love. Every meal felt comforting, like something you'd hope for after a long day. This place isn’t just a hotel—it’s a place where you feel truly looked after. We’ll always remember it.
The location coupled with room design which makes the most of the incredible views
Common areas need some finishing touches.
We really enjoyed our stay. The fantastic room with the breathtaking view of the Sri Lankan highlands is unique. The team and Inthizar took excellent care of us. Many thanks for that in particular.
This exceptional place blew up our minds. At the top of the hill, surrounded by tea plantation and magnificent nature. The bungalows are so spacious and comfortable. Big and comfortable bed. The view of the valley below and sunrise is spectacular. The smells and sounds of the nature keep you so calm with no need of anything else. Property manager Inthizar and his team makes sure you are taken care of properly. The food is excellent, both local and international dishes and you can choose to eat at the bungalow or the terrace. The hike through the plantation was amazing and a special treat. It is a bit away from Kandy, but worth by any means. When we left, just like amazinh host he is, Inthizar was checking on us if we were doing fine on the rest of our voyage and if we needed any assistance from his side. Definitely a place to visit again.
The location was private, quiet, and off the beaten path. The location is about 45min from Kandy. Staff were excellent. Inthizar was incredibly communicative, hospitable, and helpful. The views were spectacular and the room was spacious. Expect a more rustic type of accommodation. There's no wifi, tv, or alcohol on property. Breakfast was served in the room and included fresh fruits. The welcome iced tea was delicious. The chef can also prepare other meals but expect to pay $$ hotel pricing for meals that are not included in your booking.
There were several ants in the bathroom at night.
Location and staff were amazing.
Stunning view at a beautiful location; A cosy villa on a mountain side with amazing service and top quality fresh food served to the room! Our host was very kind to take us on a small hike to a stunning location to see the beautiful sunset over the mountains! The host was very accommodating for our early check out and made us feel very welcome. Please note the land is under development with improvements coming in the very near future. No WiFi or TV but it’s not needed with the stunning views. Tip: Food is a must to try! The chef is amazing. Expect some insects. The property is In the middle of the forest and mountains Non-alcoholic
Very helpful staff. Beautiful view, lots of birds and animals around. Great food. I highly recommend.
Incredible location with a cosy room. A lovely host that goes out of his way to help. Thank you!
Hairdryer in the room would have been great.
Inthazar and his team are simply world class. My wife and I decided to stay at their beautiful resort for 2 nights and 3 days and what an incredible experience. Food was unbelievably good, service was fantastic and well, the views speak for themselves. This location was easily the most relaxed my husband and I were all trip and would recommend to anyone thats passing through Sri Lanka that wants to fully disconnect for a few days. There is literally fresh herbs and spices when youre walking to your room and all the rooms are fairly seperated so you feel like you own the place. I hope to come back in this life time with more of my family so they can experience this as well. World class establishment.
Remote area, so bring everything you need and you will eat at the hotel for meals
This was by far the best stay and experience in Sri Lanka, and could we go back in time we would stay at least a week! It’s one of those magical places where time stops, mind detaches and you don’t need anything else. The resort is in an incredible place, the views all around are just stunning, and waking up to this, opening your eyes in the morning and seeing a whole glazed wall overlooking the greenest valley whilst hearing birds sing and breathing the cleanest air… is simply priceless! The cabin is stylish, designed to modern standards and yet with a strong connection to the Sri Lankan nature and soul, spacious and clean. Service is impeccable, we were served breakfast and dinner in our room at the requested time (on the dot!), and staff was always around to help. Food was incredible, every breakfast and dinner was different and delicious, with the freshest ingredients, and we had the chance to try some local fruits/dishes/drinks we had never tried before! But to us it’s the people that make a place memorable and the Cloud Resort is no exception. Inthizar and his brother are incredible hosts, not only are they the kindest people, their professionalism, experience and knowledge shows in everything they do. From the moment we stepped out of the car we were treated like very special guests, Inthizar welcomed us personally together with other members of staff, and spent time to show us around the resort, explain all the different plants on the property, and tell us the story of how everything started. It is unbelievable to think that every little detail of this place was conceived and realised by Inthizar and his family, but it definitely shows because this place has a soul like no other. The same day we were taken for a walk through the tea plantations and to a rock with a breathtaking view at sunset where locals were launching kites, which was a simple and yet magical moment.
Photos hardly do this place justice, unlike other places in Sri Lanka i feel it exceeds what you think it would be.Cloud resort was 100% our favorite accommodation and location on our 2 week visit to Sri Lanka. It is the most beautiful location with breathtaking views, our room had a panoramic view of the valley, which we could see from our bed. Sunset and sundown, such a spoil. Our private butler brought meals to our room, we were treated like royalty. We only stayed 2 nights, we were on a tight schedule, but it is the kind of place you should stay a minimum of 5 nights. The mountain walks to whatch the sunset, the pinawala is super close , the old tea factory is amazing, and just finding peace for your soul. The rooms are incredible, every small detail was crafted and curated by the owners ( family), and is such a treat to discover all the attention to detail and thoughtful comforts. Our bed was a highlight, it was a swing suspended from the ceiling, we have never slept so well being gently rocked to dream land. Inthi was an an incredible host, gave us lots of privacy, but always there if we needed anything. He was super helpful with directions, excursions, and just general info and the history of Sri Lanka. I loved meeting him. Butttt all this said...... the food!!!!!! Oh my word is was blown away, up to this point of our travels the food never blew me away....... but I would definitely recommend having all your meals there. It was beautiful, fragrant, and delicious!!!!!!!!! One of our top stays we have ever been to by far. If you are lucky enough to read my review, don't hesitate to book, you will fall in love, like we did
Very friendly and helpful staff. Breathtaking view. Peace and quiet. Exceptionally tranquil. Outstanding food.
Close to Kandy, but a quiet location with amazing views. Inthizar was an amazing host, and helped us maximize our short stay.
Amazing setting, the views are stunning! The villas are beatiful, great facilities and the owners are incredibly helpful! We had an amazing stay and will definitely come back!!
The Cloud Resort is a hidden gem in Kandy, offering breathtaking SUN RISE views from the chalets. Each morning of myb3 night stay I was greeted by stunning panoramas of misty mountains, making for a serene start to the day. The accommodations are beautifully designed, blending modern comforts with local charm, and the private terrace / deck was a perfect spot to feel the 1st rays of the sun.The food was a highlight, featuring a delicious variety of local and international dishes, with a particularly impressive breakfast spread. The staff were warm, attentive, and genuinely dedicated to ensuring a wonderful experience. In summary, The Cloud Resort is a must-visit for those seeking tranquility, great food, and outstanding service. I left feeling rejuvenated. Highly recommended...!!!
Excellent view, friendly staff.
An unforgettable view. This is one of the most memorable places we’ve stayed because the view is truly stunning. Watching the sun rise over the Kandyan hills with the sounds of the jungle and the chanting of the monks from the nearby monastery was a highlight of our stay in Sri Lanka. The staff can’t do enough for you and the breakfast was very good.
The only slight negative is that the property is described as luxury, but it doesn’t quite reach luxury status in practice (just some of the finer details are missing). The main thing was there are lots of ants and insects (it didn’t bother us too much but not what you would expect at a luxury resort). It’s still definitely worth the price though because the view and location is so unique.
