Boulder Garden Hotel, Lake Awasa

The Boulder Garden Hotel is an eco resort built into, under and around a slew of gigantic boulders in the Sinharaja Rainforest - Sri Lanka's only significant virgin rainforest. The hotel has 10 suites arranged in 4 rising tiers and linked by winding stone steps and deep corridors. The bedroom interiors have a monastic feel, thanks to their rock walls, metal-barred windows, big timber beams and polished cement floors. Facilities include an open-air restaurant, cave bar and a rain and spring water swimming pool.
