My stay at Sundaras Resort & Spa had its ups and downs. The friendly staff truly made my experience special, especially on Christmas Eve with live entertainment that warmed my heart. However, the room, while clean and nicely decorated, suffered from a major issue with the shower’s temperature regulation. Overall, it was decent but not without its flaws.

I had an amazing stay at Sundaras Resort & Spa. The gardens were tranquil, and I enjoyed seeing monkeys and squirrels while relaxing outside. The staff was friendly, and the Sri Lankan buffet prepared by the cook was absolutely delicious with a great mix of local and western flavors. On the flip side, I wish there were TVs in the rooms for some downtime, but overall, the experience was good.

I had a mixed experience at Sundaras Resort. The location is excellent, being just a short walk from the Dambulla Cave temples, and the rooms were spacious and comfortable. However, the service left much to be desired, particularly from some staff members who were unhelpful and unfriendly. The noise from the pool bar and a few other issues detracted from what could have been a stellar stay.

The dining options offered a good variety of traditional Sri Lankan food, but I was disappointed with the dinner buffet and the quality of some drinks, which felt nearly alcohol-free.

The pool area was clean and pleasant, though it wasn't as large as the photos suggested. The music from the pool bar was quite loud, making it hard for my daughter to sleep.
