I had an Ayurvedic treatment with the Ayurvedic doctor who is the owner of the villa and it was superb. He has about 30 years of experience and one can... read more tell. The massage, the Aloe Vera extract, the Sri Lankan Sauna and the shower with extracts from plants were all very good. It was a great experience and much needed after visiting the busy and traffic packed Kandy. The location of the villa is a bit outside Kandy, which is perfect to disconnect, relax and load batteries. The room was spacious, the bed was comfortable and the wifi worked nicely. Interestingly, the shower was on a natural rock which was accommodated to sit down and relax. The food was abundant and simply delicious. Overall, it was a great experience!

It's a little away from the main centre of Kandy (but we were helped with transport by the owner). I had an ayurvedic treatment in the on site facility, a very interesting experience for my first time.

  I recently spent several weeks, and earlier in the year, several months at Rockwood Villa while conducting research and business at local educational institutions. Each stay was glorious: exactly what... read more I needed. Fortunately, I was able to book my favorite "Standard Triple Room" room with its spacious main area, A/C, bath and balcony/terrace. However, I would have been just as comfortable in one of the other four rooms --especially the one with the wonderful rock shower, or the other second-floor double room with its own balcony. The surroundings were serene, and the service was "well balanced," as another reviewer put it. I am a fiend for privacy, and I got it. I was especially impressed with, and grateful for the extreme generosity of the proprietor, "the Doctor," in allowing me prime villa space (normally reserved as the main dining and meeting area) to establish a makeshift design studio. I also appreciated the support of the manger and staff to make sure I had access to anything that I needed. The excellent, fresh, healthy and diverse (both traditional and "fusion" Sri Lankan, as well as surprising Italian variations) food was fantastic. Doctor Wasantha, a highly respected Ayurvedic doctor, was a godsend. Not only were his on-location, full-body steam and massage treatments both healing and relaxing, but the individual drinks,dishes, and steam preparations that he provided when he noticed my persistent cough were spot on. I love this place.
