We came to Udawalawe for the Elephant safari. We were surprised with this place. The pool and the garden give the jungle vibes, and it has a clean and simple design. The staff told us we were the first guests in a long time and they did their best to have it ready for us. We asked for lunch, dinner and beers and everything was taken cared of while we went to the safari. We spent the next morning in the pool and although we only stayed for one night was totally worth it.

The garden and tarrace is really beautuful. The staff was very friendly and organized us a safari to Udawalawe national park and called us a TukTuk every time we needed it. The hotel has a really relaxing atmosphere, we felt welcomed. Whish we could have stayed longer.

The house itself is beautiful and peaceful, you can sit on the terrace and watch loads of birds and squirrels moving around. The room was comfortable, clean, and spacious and it had a fan and AC. Tiron and his wife are fantastic hosts, they assisted me in organizing my transport to and from Udawalawe, booking a safari, and they even loaned me binoculars for it. The wifi connection was good.

The bungalow was very clean, the dinner and breakfast excellent and tasty. Great value for money and they arranged us a nice safari in a comfortable jeep. They also kindly offered us a bottle of water at each meal which is very rare for Sri Lanka. I highly recommand this resort for your Safari.

The pool was clean and well maintained, as well as the outdoor area. The staff at the lobby were nice, we didn't have that much contact with the rest. The bed was comfortable, the air conditioning was quiet and the room is big enough.

There are two pools where you can spend the whole day if you like. The restaurant has a great offer and good prices & the staff is so friendly and helpful! Of course we did a safari that was arranged by the hotel. Our drivers name is Santa/Shanta and he did such a wonderful job, I would always recommend him. He was friendly, helpful and translated the animals name in his language. He did his best so we could spot a lot of different animals and of course a ton of elephants! We really enjoyed the time with him.

Everything from welcome at the reception desk until our check-out was perfect. The place is clean, staff ready to help, equipment of the room in great condition. And the roofless bathroom - amazing! All of that for really reasonable price.

Very nice place to stay, a good view on a jungle from the room and breakfast place. By the way, breakfasts cooked by host's mom are extremely delicious and very generous, so we even took a little with us. Host is a very friendly, helpful and easy to communicate, he helped us to book a safari. And of course it is very close to go to safari from here, only 15 minutes in the car, which will take you from hotel (and host will give you some snacks to go). Important to say that wi-fi and shower are perfect, which is not so easy to find on Sri-Lanka. Would definitely recommend!

The best service in Sri Lanka. Gayan went above an beyond to make our stay amazing. From the moment we checked in, he sorted everything from our breakfast, dinner, safari and taxi to our next destination. Nothing was too much. Whenever he saw us even move our chair by the pool, he would run over to do it for us.
