“Kalundewa Retreat appeals to those seeking immersion in nature; the organic meals and wildlife sightings offer a distinct experience. I found the concept of rooms accessible only by boat intriguing, albeit potentially challenging for some. This Dambulla hotel's dedication to eco-tourism and tranquil setting creates a uniquely intimate escape.”
