At a glance

Water Garden Sigiriya sits within the Cultural Triangle, one of the most historically rich parts of Sri Lanka, with the ancient rock fortress of Sigiriya visible from the grounds.

The resort takes its name from the waterways, lakes, and ponds that move through the property, a layout that draws directly on the water garden design of the sixth-century citadel it faces.

Thirty villas are spread across this landscape, each with a private plunge pool, and the whole property operates at a pace that encourages guests to slow down rather than move on quickly. For anyone building a Sri Lanka itinerary that takes in the Cultural Triangle, this is the natural base. Polonnaruwa, Dambulla, and Sigiriya Rock itself are all within reach, but the property has enough on the grounds that two or three nights rarely feel like enough.

In detail

Food and Drink

The restaurant serves Sri Lankan and international dishes, with seating available inside or on the terrace.

A two-floor bar is the place to be at the end of an afternoon out, with drinks and snacks available in an open setting that looks across the grounds. Both spaces work for guests wanting to eat at their own pace rather than to a fixed schedule.
Spa and Wellness

The spa at Water Garden Sigiriya offers Ayurvedic treatments and massages, with a focus on treatments that work with the surrounding environment rather than against it.

A fitness centre is available on site. The outdoor pool and a children’s pool sit within the water garden grounds, with cycling available for guests wanting to explore the area at their own tempo.
Location

Water Garden Sigiriya sits within Sri Lanka’s Cultural Triangle, with the sixth-century rock fortress of Sigiriya visible from the grounds.
