Everything about this property was wonderful, the setting, the facilities, the staff and the food. We had 3 perfect days here and didn’t want to leave.

Absolutely nothing, would thoroughly recommend!!!

amazing place , staff v professional and friendly and has great hospitality, got sick and mr suja has helped alot and went with me to hospital withou asking , very kind amazing unique designs villa with private pool in middle of jungle rooms are so clean !!

well depends if you have problems with inescts 😄 there is alot of them and this is not related to property issue it is about nature 😁

The villas have beautiful views of nature and the place is aesthetically pleasing. The food was our favourite part of the stay, as it was very delicious and the chef is fantastic. The Sri Lankan special food was delicious, and the staff were helpful when we wanted to book a tuk-tuk they arrange this for us. I think most people would really enjoy staying at Kahanda, it is a shame we encountered a few incidents that ruined our stay and we think we should have received a discount/refund but as these were one-off incidents others will probably love their experience! It is a beautiful location.

We spent a considerable amount of money for our honeymoon yet it was the only hotel we stayed at that didn't provide the same level of care. The power cut for several hours on our first morning, which would have been fine if we were staying there longer, but as we were there for a short time it impacted our stay and I missed an urgent meeting. This was unfortunate but other places did have sufficient generators so we never encountered this issue. Following this we were told we would be shown other rooms suited to honeymooners after 12:00 that we could move into, and this was extremely misleading as we thought we were being compensated through an upgrade. We packed our bags, waited for hours, but once we were shown the other villas, we were told this was simply a tour and we would be charged if we wanted to upgrade. Whilst it is absolutely fine if people want to go on tours, this should have been made extremely clear to us from the outset, as it was misleading and we felt our time was wasted. Communication could have been clearer. I suffered from an allergy reaction despite informing the hotel of my allergy. I developed a rash, tightening chest, and a sore mouth. I understand this was not intentional, the staff said they did not put nuts in my food so I believe it could have been cross-contamination. The staff kindly offered me alternative dinner but I didn't feel well so took my medicine and went back to my room, this was an unfortunate incident that ruined my evening. There was a lot of insects in our food at breakfast. I understand we are out in nature, but better care can and should be taken. I found 10 spiders inside my closed pot of jam. Lastly, upon check-out we were charged for two alcoholic drinks which had been added to our bill, despite the fact that we do not drink alcohol and had never ordered cocktails during our stay, so this was quite disappointing and caused a delay in our schedule as we had to wait until this was resolved before leaving.

This place is phenomenal. The photos don't do it justice. Tucked away, off the beaten track, it's an idyllic oasis nestled in a tea plantation. The staff went above and beyond for my birthday!

Amazing location and design. Really tranquil setting with great staff. Excellent gym. highly recommend.

Everything!! it’s a little oasis in the jungle, but only 15 minutes from their sister property at the beach.

only that we had to leave to come home.

We absolutely loved the idyllic setting, the beautifully appointed room, comfy luxurious bed, the essential oils put in our room every evening, having our private pool with the most amazing views, all the beautiful birds, the lovely smiling polite helpful staff, the excellent gym, the main pool, scrumptious Sri Lankan breakfast and tasty dinners…. We didn’t want to leave and will definitely be back to this little slice of paradise.

Nothing at all!

This was an exceptional KK experience. The setting is idyllic, within a tropical forest on a hill with refreshing breezes, rustling palm leaves and the cries of peacocks, parrots and other harmonious birds. Villas are large and separate, adorned with interesting collectors items, the decorating style is tasteful and comfortable, the regal fourposter netted bed was firm and topped with a soft fleece and luxurious sheets. We enjoyed the large reflecting swimming pool (at a perfectly inviting temperature) but also visited the attractively designed smaller personal plunge pools with some of the villas. The colour schemes were vibrant and tasteful. The staff were charming, personal and attentive and the food delicious. OK it was expensive but an experience that is worth saving for! It was a pleasure to meet the owner /creator of this spectacular KK brand. The COVID pandemic has made it very difficult for the tourism sector and we hope that a flood of visitors will sustain this very special place.

Everything was perfect. Hotel staff is very friendly and helpfull. We enjoyed every minute of the stay. Food, infinite pool, view from apartment, wild life around, tranquill atmosphere, service and the architecture of the hotel were awesome.

We wish we could stay longer. Hopefully next time. :)

beautifully designed and peaceful place to retreat and relax. Very friendly staff. Good food...Can highly recommend it.

We had the most amazing experience staying at Kahanda Kanda boutique hotel. The landscape is breathtaking, with the forest in the background and the tea plantation in front. We enjoyed sights of peacocks, squirrels, weasels and monkeys from afar and some friendly cats and dogs. Dev - the hotel manager - made our stay so memorable: we got upgraded to a villa with a pool, tasted some gems from Sri Lanka cuisine (even had a surprised candle light dinner) and felt 100% safe with all the COVID-19 protocols taken by the hotel. This won’t be our last stay at Kahanda Kanda, we definitely look forward to coming back.

the breakfast was delicious and provided pretty much everything - my favourite was the eggs benedict. The setting for the breakfast was also perfect, very relaxing and tranquil.

My villa was great (Hellaconia) but I found the outdoor bathroom a bit challenging in the evening when all the bugs come out to play (however, it didn't take from the overall experience).
