Overview
Sigiriya's Ancient Fortress
Villas are positioned across a network of private lagoons, each framing a view toward the Sigiriya rock fortress.
Water Garden Sigiriya sits within view of Sigiriya Rock, the 5th-century rock fortress and UNESCO World Heritage Site that ranks among Sri Lanka's most iconic sights. Villas are arranged around a network of private lagoon-style pools, each framing a view of the rock rising from the surrounding jungle plain. The resort's position makes it a natural base for climbing Sigiriya itself, as well as safaris into nearby Minneriya and Kaudulla National Parks, known for elephant gatherings.
