Run by a lovely family, the large room was very clean, comfortable and overall excellent value in a really nice location on the lake and very close to the cave temple. They collected me from the bus stop and even took me over to the cave and back. Fabulous breakfast overlooking the lake ??
Not many restaurants nearby but if you're adventurous try the little local eatery called Roo Foods

Amazing location with a small lake view. Nice garden with relaxing atmosphere and the most friendly staff. Close to Dambulla Cave temple.
Check out time 10.00 am. Breakfast was average standard but acceptable for the room rate.

A Perfect Lakeside Getaway! We had an amazing stay at Shashin Lake Resort! The location is absolutely stunning, right next to the lake, offering breathtaking views and a peaceful atmosphere. A walk around the lake is a must—it's so relaxing and refreshing. The rooms were spotlessly clean and very hygienic, making our stay comfortable. Breakfast was delicious, with a great variety of fresh and tasty options. The entire environment is calm and quiet, perfect for a relaxing getaway. We highly recommend this resort to anyone looking for a serene and beautiful place to unwind. Can’t wait to visit again!

The stay couln't have been better! The host are extremly friendly and helpful. They welcome you from their hearts. Delicious breakfast, wonderful location at a lake, quiet. Big and very clean rooms, balcony. We had dinner there, used the laundry service, and they organized us a tuk tuk driver - Chamara - who gave us very good rates and even took us on slight detours to a beautiful lake temple, ... Wonderful stay, wonderful people, we can highly recommend staying there!

This is one of the nicest places we have stayed. A little out of the busy town in a beautiful location. Quiet comfortable and the family are very friendly. A true home from home. The home cooking is fabulous. Highly highly recommended.

We paid just 34 USD per one night for 5 persons and did not expected mush. So, it was not much, as expected.
- I think overall Booking rating system in Sri Lnka are skewed upwards. So, take out 1-3 points after carefully reading reviews. Start with bad ones. To the hotel: - The style is ok. I like simple wooden furniture. But I do not like dusty musty smell which reminds me of my late great grandmother. You can not afford not to change matresses and other potentially smelly things, let's say, every 5 years in such climate. And it's better to wash everything that can be washed on regular basis. - Rooms are small and gloomy. I understand that the lack of sun is considered good here. But not by me. - Additional charde for aircon is 7 USD. We rarely use them at all, but what the heck? - We did not like the breakfast. It was small and there were way too many carbohydrates. I would add eggs at least. So, bring along with you e.g more fruits. Butter or above mantioned egges. - It was not noisy but I was ever that any noise I make can be heard outside.
