Sometimes you really shouldn’t book a hotel that doesn’t have much information. Don’t think you’ve found a treasure hotel... This country is really tolerant, but... the actual check-in and The room types I booked were all different (I booked a more expensive room type, but ended up getting a basic room). What's disappointing is the hotel's service attitude... First they admitted that I had booked another room type, and then they said that this was the only one left. When I insisted on getting the room type that I booked, otherwise they negotiated with the agent and refunded me the price difference. He immediately said that this is the room I booked...this is the only room left. If you like it or not, they won't refund the price difference. In the end, after learning the truth from Ctrip customer service, we settled on the price difference, and the result was not bad. It’s a bit long-winded to avoid lightning for everyone. One more thing: the breakfast and dinner were extremely unpalatable. If I hadn’t gone to the tea house and Yala later, I would have thought that Sri Lanka was at this level.

Aarunya is an incredible resort and one of the most surreal places I’ve ever stayed. The view from our villa was breathtaking and I loved how peaceful everything was allowing you to enjoy the gentle jungle ambiance. The food and drinks were sensational! As this is a small intimate resort, everything is freshly made to order. It was some of the best food we had in Sri Lanka. The service was exceptional and everything was made easy with the use of a tablet in the room which connected you to the team. I can’t recommend this resort enough if you’re looking for a complete escape and time to unwind.

An das Aarunya hatten wir mit die größten Erwartungen auf unserer Reise, allerdings war dieses Hotel die größte Enttäuschung. Wir verbrachten Ende Oktober 4 Nächte in der Sky-Tented Villa. Die Aussicht des Zimmers war unglaublich, das Zimmer entspricht allerdings keinesfalls einem 5-Sterne Hotel. Die Ausstattung ist eher durchschnittlich, wenn nicht sogar unterdurchschnittlich und die Klimaanlage hat zeitweise nicht gekühlt. Das Badezimmer, insbesondere das Klo waren abgenutzt. Eine der größten Enttäuschungen für uns waren allerdings der Service und das Essen. Uns wurde bei Ankunft ein persönlicher Butler zugeteilt, welcher allerdings ab dem zweiten Tag frei hatte und nicht mehr zur Verfügung stand. Der angeblich Ersatz reagierte auf unsere Bestellungen erst nach Stunden. Das Essen an sich war eher schlecht. Die warmen Speisen waren meist versalzen, in Hähnchen Gerichten musste man aufpassen das viel Knorpel und Knochen enthalten war. Das anschließend bestellte Dessert war Tiefkühl und nicht vollständig aufgetaut. Auch beim Frühstück gab es Tiefkühlkost - so kam es vor, dass die Muffins die uns serviert wurden noch gefroren waren in der Mitte. Brot und Croissants wirkten oft alt und trocken. Uns wurde ein Spa Treatment geschenkt auf Grund des langen Aufenthaltes. Ein wirkliches Spa feeling kam hier in diesem Resort allerdings nicht auf. Das Spa war ein „Raum“ mitten im Freien, die Geräuschkulisse war störend. Von Sägen bis Musik von Nachbarn war alles dabei. Das Personal sprach teilweise nur schlecht Englisch sodass die Kommunikation manchmal etwas schwierig war. Jedoch waren alle Mitarbeiter immer sehr bemüht uns jeden Wunsch zu erfüllen, nur ist dies leider nicht immer. Wir würden dieses Hotel insgesamt nicht weiterempfehlen- zumindest nicht für diesen Preis. Zudem ist Lage nicht vorteilhaft wenn man Kandy sehen möchte.

We are currently staying in the resort, we had been looking forward to our trip to Sri Lanka, but especially this resort, we have the all exclusive package, for a Australian it’s $3000 for two nights, all meals and cocktails, plus a few extra things, I had viewed the promotional videos and YouTube videos and I was so excited, we saved a I couldn’t wait to get here. The welcome was ok , we were very confused what came with our package, and never really found out, having the all exclusive package I thought you would get all the beautiful food in the photos, no the set menu is so subpar I’m actually dreading what’s for dinner and might pay extra so I don’t get the what’s on offer. The staff don’t come and ask if you need anything, I wonder if it’s because we have unlimited beverages , I’m very disappointed, we have stayed in other resorts while on this trip that have existed our expectations this one has left us disappointed !!!!

The Aarunya Hotel really is absolutely wonderful and unique. My wife and I spent 3 nights there in one of the villas with a private pool. We wanted for nothing. The view from our room. The infinity pool by the restaurant. The staff. The food. It was all top class. The food was so delicious and exclusive. All the staff were very friendly and fulfilled our every wish. A special highlight was breakfast in our pool with a wonderful sunrise and stunning views. Thank you to the Aarunya team. We will definitely be back!

Our stay at Aarunya Resort in Sri Lanka was absolutely incredible. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make us feel welcome and taken care of. Every detail of the resort is thoughtfully curated, from the beautifully designed rooms to the serene natural surroundings. It truly is the perfect place to disconnect and immerse yourself in nature. The views are breathtaking, and the atmosphere is so peaceful and calming. Whether you’re relaxing by the pool or enjoying the amazing food, every moment feels special. We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!

Pretty much an exceptional hotel & experience. Staff accommodating and courteous. Food outstanding, especially the Sri Lankan breakfast. Room well appointed, modern and clean. Only minor criticism was there were no hand towels, just bath towels and flannels; however, this was resolved quickly by our personal butler. The spa is good, and the view from the infinity pool amazing. If you want to stay in the vicinity of Kandy stay here, it’s amazing!
