Blue Lake Ridge

The location is stunning — peaceful, surrounded by nature and right beside the beautiful lake. It felt like a completely different side of Sri Lanka, away from the busy tourist areas. The rooms were clean and comfortable and the garden surroundings and pool were relaxing. The hosts were friendly and welcoming, which made our stay even more enjoyable. The home cooked meals were delicious and well priced. One of our favourite experiences was watching the fruit bats flying across the sky as the sun was setting over the lake. It was something we’ll remember for a long time. If you love nature, wildlife, beautiful sunsets and getting off the beaten track, we highly recommend Blue Lake Ridge. It’s one of those places that you don’t just visit — you remember it. We would absolutely stay here again!

Nothing

The setting is great and the dinner cooked by Padma was delicious. Amazing value and we loved walking in the morning by the lake and the swimming pool was an added bonus. Well worth stopping on route to the east coast.

Some of the sockets weren’t working and Wi-Fi very patchy.

The hotel was in a lovey, calm area and it felt so tranquil and relaxing next to the lake. The owners weren’t out of their way to make sure we had a great stay. The food was amazing. He even arranged a driver to come meet us 80km away and drive our Tuk Tuk to their property as we couldn’t in the dark. They were so helpful and kind I wish we had had more time to enjoy the pool.

The bathroom needs a bit of updating.

Beautiful location by a lake and the property neatly positioned with trees to keep it shady. Clean room and really sweet host. We stopped here after driving down the B502 and it was definitely worth it. Lovely early morning walk around the lake spotting birds and bats !

Nothing … maybe a sign out front .. we went slightly past the entrance in our tuktuk and then it was tricky but the owner came out and assisted
