    Amazing experience. Atmosphere is cool and breezy. Well landscaped throughout the hotel. Friendly and helpful staff. To get your breakfast go in the dinning hall before 9 o’clock and enjoy the breathtaking view. Pool water was really cold. I suggest you get in the afternoon. I went on full board basis, and the food was amazing on all three meals including the desserts.

    By far one of the best resorts I have been to recently. This was the first stay on our trip to Sri Lanka and it did make a really good first impression. The rooms are really good with running 24hrs hot water, hair dryer, locker, grooming kit, shampoo, shower gel, variety of tea and coffee, drinking water and comfortable bed and pillows. I am a vegetarian and found it difficult to choose to eat from the wide range of buffet which actually majored non-vegetarian items. Once they found out, I was served with hot Veg Soup, veg starter and dessert. Everything was super delicious. And from then on for next 2 days, i was served Vegetarian breakfast and dinners with no extra cost. People are super polite. Hospitality at its best. Location is to die for. The view when you wake up is breathtaking. I would recommend this to everyone who is trying to find a nice place to stay with all points checked required for vacation. Thank you to the staff of “Kandy Fox Resort” for a memorable stay.

    The hotel is located on the mountains which can be reached through very narrow mountainy roads. The view from the swimming pool is VERY BEAUTIFUL. The room had a good AC and we felt comfortable in it, it did feel a bit outdated though. Staff were friendly too. We enjoyed the dinner and breakfast, I was warned that the curry And rice dish that I ordered was going to be a bit spicy, but it was too spicy for me, would be nice if we had the option to order a less spicy version especially since this was in a hotel. Overall a pleasant stay but I am not sure if it’s 5 stars, more like 4.

    Stayed here on a business trip. Loved the rooms and the vibe. And the water pressure here is on point. Staff are really helpful here. I just made a suggestion of having some Pol rotti for breakfast and the chef and the restaurant staff made sure it was available for breakfast. I mean who does that any more? You will be taken care of here! Best wishes to the management and team.

    What an extraordinary experience! My family and I spent a day at this remarkable place, and every one of us is thoroughly delighted. The poolside ambiance, breathtaking views, and the culinary delights were truly five-star. Our encounter with the incredibly kind and helpful Mr. Chris added an extra layer of joy, making our stay truly unforgettable. The staff, always with a smile, provided service that surpassed all standards. If you're seeking the perfect combination of service, views, and cuisine, I wholeheartedly recommend Fox Kandy. Thanks for an incredible stay!

  • 5/5 Craig H. 1 year ago on Google
    We spent two nights at this hotel and really enjoyed our stay. The room was much bigger than expected and very clean. The bed was comfortable and the balcony had a stunning view of Kandy. The staff were incredibly friendly and attentive and the restaurant was very good. There is a good variety of food and it was all fresh and of a high standard. The pool is small, but is in a quiet, private location with a superb view of the surrounding hills. It's a bit of a way out of Kandy, and is up a lot of narrow, winding hills/streets, making it difficult to walk to, especially at night. But overall, a great hotel.

  • 5/5 Jayman P. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing Hotel, with amazing views. Yes it's situated slightly away from main Kandy, and get be difficult to access with steep narrow paths/roads to get there, but boy is it worth it. Views from high up are breathtaking. All the rooms were immaculate along with clean modern bathrooms. Breakfast was buffet style and quite good too. Infinity Pool was also great

I really enjoyed the place. The food was so delicious including all three meals and the dessert was like never tasted before.

  • 5/5 Soudamini M. 1 year ago on Google
    Fox Resort, Kandy is a wonderful hotel in the middle of nature. It's surrounded by mountains and the view from the rooms was truly amazing. The room was clean and has all the amenities. Loved the wide variety of tea bags kept in the room. The hotel has a swimming pool overlooking the mountains. Watching the sunrise in the morning was a wonderful experience. The entire team working at the hotel, the front desk, restaurant staff and housekeeping staff are very friendly and helpful and make every effort to make the guests feel comfortable. Food was really good, with a lot of options to choose from. The service exceeded all our expectations. The hotel provides a good value for money. I will definitely like to stay in this hotel again.

    Fantastic Location & the resort is very nice!! Hospitality is also very good. Rooms are spacious & clean. They even gave me an free upgrade which was cherry on the cake. The receptionist Mr Shannan is very good.

  • 5/5 Ed Y. 1 year ago on Google
    We loved our stay at Fox Kandy. After an eventful arrival (it's quite steep, and it was monsooning!), we had a great experience. The staff were so kind and accommodating. The food was fantastic (recommend the Kottu at dinner), the views from the room were great. Thoroughly recommend to everyone.

    From the moment of entering until leaving, our experience with Fox Kandy was exceptional. The staff, the cleanliness, the view, personal touches( acknowledging our honeymoon), the food, attention to detail (staff brought us pool towels even though we never asked for them) ... We are truly impressed and grateful. The best hotel we stayed in Sri Lanka. The only regret is not being able to stay longer. Keep it up team!

  • 5/5 Isabelle G. 9 months ago on Google
    We stayed here for 2 nights with our kids. The hotel is situated on a hill, with beautiful views. The rooms are nice & spacious. The pool is located at the most beautiful point. The food is really good and enough to choose from. The deserts are small little paintings. The staff is super helpful and friendly. We would definitely stay here again.

  • 5/5 Jarryd M. 11 months ago on Google
    I had a fantastic experience here. The location was fantastic, the food incredible and the rooms delightful. The view over Kandy was a highlight. Our flight was delayed and the staff were very accomadating in helping us. They were also immensely useful in organizing transport. Fantastic experience and I hope to do it again.

    Very nice location and the pool is the best part of this property! Spacious and decent rooms, with an acceptable view. Moderate service, due to the situation in Sri Lanka. Restaurant staff must be trained and behave more professional. The receptionist was very welcoming and friendly! The hotel must add a spa/massage facility

  • 5/5 Jessica J. 9 months ago on Google
    The location of the hotel is on the hill, but therefore, it was more beautiful and quiet and peaceful. and everything was equipped, so there was no inconvenience. Also, there was accommodation for the guests‘ drivers to stay, and in particular, all the staff were extremely kind and attentive, The food was also very good and delicious.

  • 5/5 Prasanna J. 9 months ago on Google
    Best place for a stay with your family. The hotel is a little far from the town but its worth the travel because of its location. Wonderful view. Room was clean and tidy and well arranged. Staff were really friendly. Food was pretty good. Overall, its a good place for a stay.

  • 5/5 Amit M. 10 months ago on Google
    Quite far from Kandy City, the ride to the hotel itself is an adventure for the 1st time. The location is really good.. The swimming pool is very relaxing and the view from the pool is super good. The staff is very friendly and welcomed us really warmly. , The Deck at the restaurant and restaurant staff is also very friendly. Must stay if you are looking forward to staying on the outskirts of Kandy.

  • 5/5 Tharaka De S. 7 months ago on Google
    Amazing place and location. Mesmerizing surrounding. The rooms were classy. The food was decent enough, but spread can improve. The service was average and can improve. I guess one cannot have it all, especially when the location is so nice. The spaces created between the chalets for sitting down is nicely located to capture the serenity of the surrounding. Nice place to unwind and relax.

  • 3/5 Vince H. 7 months ago on Google
    Clean tidy rooms with great service. Rooms are a little susceptible to noise. Doors closing, air conditioning noise. Otherwise if you really like their pool and outdoor setting worth the stay. Food wise needs more improvement considering Sri Lanka offers so much delicious food.

  • 5/5 Darren J. 5 months ago on Google
    Absolutely stunning place. We stayed for a few nights. Staff were friendly, scenery was amazing and hotel and rooms were spotless. Would definitely recommend and visit again. 5 star 🌟

  • 5/5 Robert E. 7 months ago on Google
    We had a fabulous stay at the Fox Kandy, made even more special by the hospitality of the staff at the hotel. We stayed for 3 nights and ate at the hotel each evening - something no that rarely happens as we like to go out and about to explore. The evening meal is served as a buffet with specialty dishes also prepared to order by Demish, the Head Chef, all were delicious with an array of Sri Lankan dishes to choose from. A special mention to our housekeeper Gobi who were chatty and friendly and kept our rooms spotless throughout our stay. The restaurant and reception team were also amazing and I’m truly sorry I didn’t get everyone’s names. We hope to be back someday, Rob & Karen xx

    Staff were extremely accommodating, they allowed us to check in early around 12 noon. Rooms were clean & very comfortable. Food are so yummy. the staff was amazing. Only thing is It was bit difficult to get Pick me / Uber to the location. I would like to recommend this resort for anyone visiting Kandy.

  • 1/5 Меркулова �. 4 months ago on Google
    The hotel is terrible. Absolutely not worth its money. It costs almost twice as much as world famous hotels, and the impression is bad. Yes, there is a good view and we were even told to enjoy it when checking in, but the windows are so dirty that we closed them just to avoid seeing it. Not a single request was helped with. The food in the restaurant is not tasty but the breakfasts are ok. Honestly, I am puzzled why the rating here is as high as the prices.

  • 5/5 Sterling D. 3 years ago on Google
    .We had an excellent stay with family . Marvelous location with infinity pool with amazing view. Kids love it . Excellent service from the minute we entered the premises. This is my first visit. If its hill country, FOX Kandy is the place to stay. Food was great and the variety was always a pleasant surprise. Very courteous staff and their service is commendable. Special thanks to Mr. Brian to gave us good service and helpful. We really appreciate their effort to be an eco-friendly resort (Ex: glass water bottle instead of plastic ones). The will keep coming back. Good luck Fox Kandy.

  • 5/5 Sahesh A. 2 years ago on Google
    Overall, we had a great experience at Fox Resort Kandy; staff was helpful, and the amenities were great. The room was wonderful, clean, and perfect. You can see Hanthana Mountain Range from the rooms. Food is delicious but there are limited items on the menu (Think because of Covid situation). Worth the money.

    Great food and surrounding, specially good for groups. Kandy city is a little distance from the location. But if you plan to stay in and spend the time nice place

  • 4/5 Sam O. 2 years ago on Google
    The hotel itself is very nice, rooms are well equipped, pool is beautiful with good views, and the restaurant also has great views of the surrounding hills. It seemed very good value for money for the hotel standard. It should be noted that this hotel does not serve alcohol currently. We felt that this should be specified when booking, as the hotel is 15/20 mins outside of kandy by tuk tuk. The food was nice but not up to the standard of many of the other destinations we visited in Sri Lanka.

  • 5/5 Sandanuwan K. 1 year ago on Google
    Had a relaxing stay with my wife. They gave me an unforgettable surprise for my birthday. Staff was really friendly and helpful. Foods were delicious. Lunch was a set menu and dinner and breakfast were buffet. Room and bathroom were clean and enough space there. Good amenities. This is located in the top of hanthana mount and a calm and beautiful environment. Great atmosphere. We will surely visit again.

  • 5/5 Praveen K. 2 years ago on Google
    Had an amazing stay at Fox Kandy by Fox Resorts. Covid protocol of highest order is being maintained. Not only the resort is nice and well kept, but what we liked is amazing hospitality. Would like to specifically mention the names of Anjuna and Navarosh. Best wishes to Team Fox Kandy Resort

  • 4/5 Ayesha R. 2 years ago on Google
    Fox Kandy was a sudden booking for a long weekend holiday. But we were able to checking as soon as we get there without any delay though they got many guests. That is really appreciated. This is a small hotel but the atmosphere is calm and beautiful. Rooms are spacious enough and tidy. You can see a spectacular view of the whole Kandy City from your balcony. Chilling climate under the Kandy sky is so romantic. Meals were good but the dinner menu wasn’t matched perfectly. Staff is very helpful and friendly. They do their best to provide better service all the time. There are some negative things about this hotel; rooms aren’t sound proff, balconies are too close too each other and the road is not in good condition to reach. But I recommend this one for a pleasant stay around Kandy.

  • 5/5 Selvy 2 years ago on Google
    Out of all the hotels in Srilanka, I've been to, Fox Kandy Resorts really has excellent customer service, very good food, beautiful and stunning view. Gorgeous room, room service, etc. What more do you want? Extremely generous and helpful employees too. 100 percent and excellent recommended hotel.

  • 5/5 Himanshu W. 2 years ago on Google
    Breathtaking view! mountains are covered with mist. Rooms are clean and well maintained. We stayed on full board basis and the breakfast was really nice comparing to other meals. Worth of money!

  • 4/5 Ankit P. 2 years ago on Google
    Wonderful gardens and pool. The restaurant was good particularly the crab kottu. Only improvement could be made in the room. It was clean and comfortable but the bathroom could with refresh.

  • 5/5 Jo S. 2 years ago on Google
    Located in the Hantana mountain range, this hotel has almost everything you want from a resort: friendly staff, excellent rooms, and breathtaking views. It was a bit of a drive up the hill, but the experience is so worth it, as you get to see the locals and their little houses and friendly smiles. The hotel is surrounded by other hotels, but I have to say that it's the prettiest out of all of them. It's gated, so you feel safe inside. The check-in process took longer than expected, but once we were taken to the room, we were very impressed by the size, the cleanliness, and the view from the balcony. They have a restaurant that serves authentic Sri Lankan food plus western food. We loved everything about the experience, with excellent value for money. They also have an infinity pool, which I recommend trying at least once as it's so relaxing, and the view is stunning. I loved the place and would highly recommend it to anyone who wishes to experience a bit of peace & quiet in hectic Kandy. There are a couple of resident cats. They are very playful and very welcoming! Just keep in mind that it's not really in the city, and it will take roughly 10min to get to central Kandy. They can help you get a tuk-tuk ride whenever you need to leave the hotel.

    A calm and quiet place to relax. Can get panoramic views from most of the corners. Continental breakfast was served with delicious croissants and waffles. We visited only for breakfast seeking for an international breakfast therefore cannot comment about rooms. Seemingly the rooms looked cosy and comfy. Hope to visit again for an overnight stay.

  • 5/5 Sutheash B. 2 years ago on Google
    Fantastic location - beautiful setting and splendid view- sitting out dining hall balcony was awesome. Excellent service by the staff across the board. Lunch and breakfast is commendable. Was able to walk around every day. Room toilets are a little small. A resort would visit again for relaxation.

  • 5/5 W.Hishan Dinuk F. 1 year ago on Google
    The resort had a spectacular view of the mountains and it was indeed a great resort. The staff was by far the best trained staff out of most of the places I have stayed at. They provided a great service. The rooms were quite spacious and did give a sense of luxury. I highly recommend this resort to stay to anyone who is planning on visiting Kandy

  • 5/5 Sithmini K. 1 year ago on Google
