Freedom Village, hotel in Dambulla

Located in Dambulla, 11 miles from Sigiriya Rock, Freedom Village features an outdoor swimming pool and views of the garden.

The hotel is in closed area with nice garden, which was very conveniet. All the staff was extremely friendly, however not all of them spoke English, but the receptionist did. They brought us extra towels when we went to swimming pool (without us asking) :). We also rented bikes for free during our stay. They were old, but sufficient to ride around the city, to visit the temples etc. They arranged for us a tuktuk trip to Sigiriya and took us to bus station and helped us to get the right bus to Kandy when we were leaving (for free). the breakfast was very big, we got standard fresh fruits, toasts, eggs, but also typical srilankan dishes as well as the best coconut pancakes (roti). the service was overall amazing.

    All the sites were wonderful - Sigiriya (the rock), Dambulla Caves (Amazing - especially cave #2), Polonnaruwa (Ancient City), Elephant Safari saw 40 to 50 elephants - Mothers and their children on a ridge at the very end of the safari! It was a great day to be able to see that many in the game reserve all together. I would spend minimum 3 but really 4 nights up here as the travel day really doesn't count because you aren't running out to see anything until the next day, so this way you have 3 full days to see all the sites and it isn't rushed. Also, you go out early in the morning as it gets too bloody hot in the middle of the day.

    Dambulla is a great place to explore, especially if you are a nature lover. Lots of greenery is preserved amidst the cave temples. Frescos at the Dambulla cave temple are amazingly beautiful. Inside the caves are cold though the outside temperature is steaming hot in the summer. Sigiriya rock is another attraction near Dambulla. It will take a half a day tour to climb up and down but if you want to explore more, the area surrounding the Sigiriya rock garden is vast and can wonder around the rock garden and historical ruins for hours. Good for hikers. Ibbankatuwa ancient grave yard, Pidurangala (A rock with nice view at the top, situated parallel to Sigiriya Rock are some of other nearby attractions.

    First of all we would like to thank the owner and the management for giving us the opportunity to stay at this beautiful resort. Colin and Ajit did a wonderful job of looking after us They are hard working, sincere and committed in their work. Few things that need to be sorted out were the overgrown creeper in the front which is preventing sunlight from entering the front of the house. Lighting in the room and bathroom need to be brighter. A stronger Wi-Fi would be welcome Overall an enjoyable stay Hope to visit again Regards

    I was there for two days and the only place we actually enjoyed was sigirya/pidurungala rock which are not even in a city. Tuk tuk drivers are scamming tourist like crazy and there is almost no sidewalk so it makes it very hard or impossible to walk. The golden temple is good to see but I wouldn’t go back. Overall I wouldn’t go back there. I saw it once and that is more than enough. Please note that if places in dambulla carry some religous meaning to you than your opinion might differ.

    A centrally located tourist friendly town.

    A centrally located tourist friendly town. 65 Km from Anuradhapura, 16 km from Sigiria and Pedurangala, 110 km from Kandy and 65 km from Polonnaruva. Cave temple and golden temples are the main local attractions while nearby Sigiria and Pedurangala provide more adventure, in terms of climbing and view at the top. Plenty of places to eat local food for your taste, just say what and how you like it they will make it. Best places for a rice and curry lunch is on the main roads leading in to town, just outside of town. They serve lunch from noon to two in the afternoon.

    We couldn’t have chosen a better place to stay in Dambulla. I love breakfast and these made in Green Village was super perfect. Also Athula was the best host we met in Sri Lanka. Extremely helpful not only when planning trips around. Unfortunately I had an accident with my back and he helped us to get me to the hospital, spent the whole time with us without any comment and didn’t take a single rupee for that. One more time - THANK YOU for being such a nice person. We will choose your guesthouse again in the future.

    We stayed with friends for a few days in this hotel. Huge hotel grounds with mango trees, large pool with a great view. There is a tennis court, you can rent bikes, gym, massage. We only had breakfasts included, but we went for lunch and dinner as well, convenient that you can write the bill on the room number. The staff is attentive and helpful. The rooms are clean and comfortable, if you need something, they will bring it on request. Thank you very much to the hotel staff. Keep up the good work.

    We were given the best room in the hotel, overlooking the pool and felt like we were in the middle of the jungle, hearing bird song and sighting the lights of fireflies. The room was extremely spacious and very clean. Our host brought us water and candles and organised all of our day trips around Dambulla, we didn’t have to lift a finger. The gates of the hotel were also locked at night, making the accommodation feel very safe. Great value for money.

    Dilshan, the hotel manager, is a very nice and patience guy. He drove us to the many attractions around and gave us a lot of tips and interesting information for our stay in Dambulla. He made every little wish we had, came true. The villa is a very cozy place, where the monkeys play in the morning and afternoon on the terrace. And the fried rice at his little restaurant is very good.
