About

Hello and a warm welcome to the Roy’s Villa family in Sigiriya!

We’re delighted to have you consider staying with us. Roy’s Villa is a social, experience-focused place created for travelers who enjoy shared activities, meaningful connections, and authentic local experiences. We regularly organize group activities such as cooking classes, sunrise hikes, sunset walks, cycling tours, and social evenings, all designed to bring guests together in a relaxed and memorable way.

As a family- and friends-run experience, Roy’s Villa is best suited for travelers who appreciate community, shared moments, and a stress-free stay where activities, meals, and experiences are thoughtfully organized for you. For guests seeking a quiet stay focused mainly on independent plans or minimal social interaction, there are many other wonderful accommodations around Sigiriya that may better suit those preferences.

With over 40 guests at a time, our social atmosphere is an important part of the Roy’s experience. Community events, including karaoke nights (held up to twice a week and ending by 11:00 PM), are planned based on the overall guest vibe to ensure an enjoyable experience for everyone.

We also offer complimentary experiences such as cooking demonstrations and sunset walks, along with delicious local cuisine—mostly vegan—served in a welcoming communal setting where you can connect with Roy and fellow travelers. For a truly authentic local experience, you may also spend time with farmers in their rice fields or enjoy a refreshing swim in the nearby natural lake, where wildlife sightings, including elephants, are sometimes possible.
We look forward to welcoming you and making you feel at home. Cheers!

I would rate this 11/10 if I could. I’ve stayed at hostels before but not like this; Roy’s Villa main focus is family and socialising - and they do a great job at it. The staff are so incredibly friendly and warm and so so easy to talk too. I would genuinely come back again just because of that. Sri Lankan hospitality is completely unmatched and these lot really know what’s up! They do a lot of activities - I was able to join the cooking class which was super entertaining. Deffo visit if you can
