Nature eco lodge vacation rentals in Kandy

Beautiful place designed with taste, the food is excellent. The house is outside of Kandy in a quiet area, which feels good. The only problem: complicated to access in Tuktuk, they don't pick you up because they're too far away on Pick me and uber.

5/5 for this accommodation! We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, and cannot recommend visiting and staying at the Hatale mini World's End Bangalow enough. We only stayed one night, and wish we had time to extend our stay for at least another night or two (or a week). We were greeted by Akram, whom was very responsive to calls and messages and made sure our journey and arrival was safe. We lost our way as we drove a tuktuk ourselves up the mountain and the GPS was acting up, but Akram gave us good instructions on how to get to the accommodation effectively. The accommodation was a bit hard to get to, but definitely worth it! We parked our vehicle at the Tea Factory, and Akram organized a tuktuk for us to get up to our accommodation. The views are breathtaking, and the accommodation spotless, neat and very very well maintained. The gardens around the bungalow are well managed and lovely, and you can tell a lot of heart and care has been placed in maintaining the bungalow. Augustine, the accommodation caretaker is an amazing cook and is friendly, accommodating and very hospitable, bringing us tea, catering to our needs and even helped us bring in our washing quickly when there was a sudden downpour! We felt so spoilt and cared for, we did not feel like leaving. The food (we had dinner, breakfast and lunch) were all delicious and extremely generous, and we ate more than we usually do because they were so good. I think I will miss Agustine's cooking so much, I might come back to Sri Lanka and this bungalow just to have it again. Akram even took us on a hike up to the mountain peak, and a tour to the tea gardens where we tried our hand in picking tea leaves and learning about the process and agriculture. Akram was very friendly and knowledgeable about the plantation, and also gave us a lot of advice in helping with our trip plans. He is also a very good conversationalist, and shared his knowledge about Sri Lanka, the culture and many more. They care so much that we are happy with our stay, and went above and beyond to make sure all our needs were met (we even had a late checkout after enjoying home cooked lunch by Augustine to enjoy our surroundings a bit more before leaving). Taking a tuktuk down to the tea factory where we were parked, we were also treated to a tour inside the factory to see the processing of the harvested leaves and a tea tasting experience (At no extra cost! They just are passionate about tea and were happy to share!), where we also purchased bags of tea for souvenir at a very reasonable price. No other accommodation would have provided such a service! Just as we were about to leave, we realised our tuktuk wasn't starting and had been ransacked by monkeys. Akram and a few other workers helped us get it started again so we could be on our way. This is probably the best hospitality and service I've received, and I cannot recommend this place enough. However (very minor downsides), internet and cell service was a bit choppy at times, which was not a major problem because we were enjoying ourselves with the view and surroundings. Also hot water pressure was a bit low, but there's hot water so all was good anyway! As this bungalow is a bit secluded and situated in the plantation, there were also a fair number of bugs, which didn't really affect us much but just something to keep in mind. Great place to stay, highly recommend!!! Thank you Akram, Agustine, and everyone else that we met during our stay for the wonderful experience!!!
