Offre fictive, refuse d'honorer les réservations si on achète pas des excursions à prix d'or.
De kamers waren heel mooi en proper. Mooie badkamer. Het eten is er heel lekker. Het zwembad lekker verfrissend. Heel vriendelijke gastheer die ons alle info gaf rond de safari. Heel rustige locatie.

Amazing service! They helped us arrange the safari and served really good food.
Friendly place, very good meals, clean enviroment. Good value per price. Safari was good (beware that he presents it as with a meal and a guide - the meal is after the safari and not during, so you will be hungry and the guide is just a driver who doesn’t talk to you about the animals).
It was advertised as with AC and Wifi but neither was there. We were shocked when the owner at check-out asked us to not write it in our review - we feel like it’s false advertisment and he ups his reviews by lying. Be careful about this. There was a lot of pressure from the host on writing a good review about his place. The host probably wanted to seem caring but he was kinda nosy and annoying.
Got a good deal here.
very nice plac veri good safari

Easy access to the Udawalawe Safari forest.
Very clean, host is extremely helpful
Good Excellent
Everything was fine, the host was very kind, he arranged a very nice safari for us, he was very helpful and helped us a lot. We highly recommend this guesthouse!
Perfect thank you so much! 🙂
Nothing
The breakfast was self-made and delicious. The dinner was not included but definitely worth the price!! The owner is super friendly, and his family is very nice :)
On booking, it says the room comes with an AC, but it's actually just a fan. It's definitely ok for that price!
Very nice accommodation, nice staff, helped with everything, clean room. Rich breakfast. Please note that there is no air conditioning. Unbelievably low price.
It was super cheap and when we arrived in the evening he made dinner for us and we booked the safari trip through him
The owner was amazing. He helped us with everything - book a safari, take us for a walk and swim to a river, prepared a dinner for us. The stay was really nice.
Its super hot during the night, but thats not a big problem.
Great clean property very close to town. Friendly helpful owner can book you anything you want from Safari to temple to elephant orphanage
We all enjoyed our stay here. Our hosts were incredibly personable, warm, friendly and communicative to our entire family. We had breakfast and dinner here, and it was just lovely. The food area setup is very cool, and the food was terrific. The buffalo curd was incredibly delicious. We organised our safari through them, and it was amazing! Our hosts provided a lovely snack bag which was such a considerate thing to do. We travelled with young children, and our hosts were incredibly friendly to them. My children adored them both. Overall, the owners are lovely people who make you feel right at home. Sri Lanka is filled with beautiful places, but this place stood out.
· Don't think twice before booking your stay at Mango Tree House! This gem of a property comprises of two small houses hidden away in a lush garden, away from the main road in Udawalawe. The house we stayed in was beautiful and tastefully decorated, with a large comfy bed, lots of storage space and a wonderful outdoor shower. It was impeccably clean, with complimentary local hand made shower gel and shampoo. dimuthu was very communicated by message before our arrival, and helped us to arrange a driver to bring us to and from the property, as well as a half day safari with a great driver/ranger. He even gave us a care package with water, bananas and biscuits as we set off! Despite a little rain we managed to see many elephants, as well as other animals like deer, buffalo, peacocks, eagles, hornbills, etc. We also arranged to have lunch and dinner at the property before and after the safari, which was delicious - hats off to kanchi for her amazing cooking. The dinner was one of the best rice and curries that we had on the trip, so definitely don't miss out if you can eat there! The breakfast that is included in the price is also very tasty. We would 100% recommend this property for your trip to Udawalawe, based on the kindness of dimuthu and his brother kanchi, but also because it is a beautiful place with everything you would need to make your stay special! Oh and they also have the cutest and loveliest dog called Shane that hangs around the property during the day, you can't help but having a smile on your face :)
. The location is good for Udawalawe just a short walk to shops and easy access for safaris. The setting was idyllic surrounded by foliage and next to the river. It was the staff who made it. Lucky was great and very informative we had some great conversations with him, he and his team were so helpful, the restaurant staff, chef, front of desk and gardener were all so welcoming and did everything to ensure we had a wonderfully comfortable stay. We would recommend this hotel
Very nice rooms and a great host. Thank you for the beautiful safari and all the help!
really nice rooms friemdly staff the owner arrnge safari very good price
Very nice and helpful host with a beautiful place. Everything was clean and we got the best service, also to arrange the Safari trip. We would really recommend this place
Complimentary breakfast and complimentary lunch after the safari
nice owner, good rooms, basic but good
Book your safari online or in the city, it‘s more expensive if
I had a perfect stay here!! The staff goes above and beyond to make sure you have everything you need and even got fresh eggs and fruit when I requested a meal!! It’s clean, spacious and very comfortable! Great location, close to everything including the bus stop and a supermarket! They helped to arrange a great morning safari too. I can’t recommend staying here enough!!
Very good 3 bedroom apartment. Helpful owner. Street parking wasn't difficult. Large kitchen, living room and balcony.
Nothing.
The host was very kind and helpful. He waited for us on the bus staion and take us to the accomodation in the tuk tuk. The accomodation was nice and clean. The dinner was delicious. We had a nice view to the jungle garden from our room. The host managed a safari tour for us. The jeep picked us at 6 am. We had a great breakfast in Udawalawe. We saw a lot of elephants and other animals. After safari he helped us with a taxi. I completely recommend this accomodation.
The best part about this place is the host, he couldn't do enough for us and made us feel at home 👌
Great host, very hospitable and provides a safari tour which is very reasonably priced! He also served dinner and lunch the next day which was amazing!
The hospitaly was amazing! Welcoming drinks, really good food and organized our safari perfectly.
Very friendly and accommodating hosts who organised our safari trip and transport to our next destination! Wonderful dinner and breakfast!
Perfect host! Very nice Accommodation. Very good food! Good starting point for safari. Highly recommended!
Beautiful accommodation, good location, delicious dinner and breakfast, high level service, they can arrange safari for good price, very kind and welcoming people
Great host. Very helpful and always willing to help.Also communicates well
The room was not cleaned (toilet and trash from previous guests), but the family offered a welcome fruit juice and allowed us to cook is their kitchen.
1. They have many accommodations from the same family and change the names (Nice View Cottage; Elephant Paradise; River Front, etc) so frequently that neither the neighbours can follow, so even asking to 2 neighbours, they didn’t know the place that we booked. 2. We arrived very tired and didn’t want to do the safari at 5am in the next day, so the owner thought we wouldn’t do safari and asked us to leave, saying that he would close the house. It was a very uncomfortable situation. 3. They don’t have wifi at all, their excuse is the monkeys broke it…, and the signal doesn’t work there, so you will be without any connection. 4. In the end we didn’t have the opportunity to do the tour with them, but we were offered tours much cheaper than the $60 that they offered us for the safari. 6. After waiting for more than 1 hour, some local helped us to call the owner that was fishing 20 minutes from there and came to welcome us. Make sure to book the right place, because if you seems lost, dozens of tuk-tuks will arrive at the same time to offer safaris. 7. Owner unstable, will put you out if confronted by the fact that the kettle (that is specified in the ad) is not provided.
