Breakfast at the resort is generally well-received with a superb and extensive buffet featuring a wide selection of fresh, high-quality foods, both local and European. The breakfast setting, often with lovely views overlooking the pool, enhances the dining experience. However, some guests noted a lack of variety, particularly in local and vegetarian options and mentioned that the breakfast sometimes fell short of five-star expectations.
Dinner also garners praise, especially for the diverse and delicious local foods with the produce often sourced from the resort’s own grounds. While some guests appreciated the buffet for its quality and options, others found it mediocre, highlighting issues like cold food and limited choices that occasionally fell short of a five-star standard.
The rooms at Sigiriana Resort present a mixed but generally positive picture. They are spacious and comfortable, often offering lovely garden views that add to a serene escape. However, the rooms show signs of aging and some guests noted the need for maintenance and renovation to meet higher expectations. Cleanliness is usually commendable, though there were occasional lapses affecting some guests' experiences. Despite this, efforts to create a warm and cozy atmosphere are evident, although the presence of mosquitoes and lack of nets have been noted as detractors.
Cleanliness across the resort receives varied feedback. While many guests find both the property and the rooms clean and welcoming, some pointed out inconsistencies, particularly in bathrooms and linens, suggesting rooms could align more with a three-star category rather than five-star.
The staff stands out as a highlight at Sigiriana Resort. Consistently described as friendly, polite and attentive, the team enhances the overall guest experience with their willingness to accommodate and resolve any issues promptly. This human warmth ensures guests feel valued and well-cared for during their stay.
The pool is another major attraction at the resort, embedded in the lush garden with stunning views of the surrounding natural beauty. Guests appreciate its cleanliness, design and significant size, making it an ideal retreat.
Beds at the resort receive commendations for their exceptional comfort, contributing significantly to guests’ restful experiences. Daily housekeeping ensures the beds remain fresh and welcoming. Nonetheless, a minority of guests found the single beds uncomfortable or too hard for their liking.
In summary, Sigiriana Resort by Thilanka excels in offering a serene, scenic retreat with standout service, excellent amenities and a generally positive dining experience, though there is room for improvement in maintenance, cleanliness and culinary variety to fully meet five-star expectations.
