Provider-sourced guest reviews.
The room was good, plenty of space with nice people running the homestay. It was in a decent area.
I understand hot water can always be an issue in some areas, but hot water was advertised and it was not hot, and the shower was not easy to operate.
Very friendly and helpful owners. The bungalow is well designed and has A/C and mosquito nets. Furthermore, the pillows and mattrasses were very comfortable. The location is quiet and in walking distance to the supermarket and eateries. The kids loved the pool. Good value for your money.
Some hangers or hooks would have been great and a refrigerator would have been a bonus but it can be done without both of them.
Best stayed ever.Breakfast was best in srilanka
Fabulous
Everything perfect🩷
Kameralny obiekt z przyjemnym basenem, miła obsługa i super zorganizowane safari.
Kilkukrotne przerwy w dostawie prądu, należałoby dołożyć większych starań do utrzymania czystości.
Had a relaxing time with the combination of good food, nice view,comfy bedding, Highly recommended for anyone looking to unwind and enjoy nature in comfort. already done 2 to 3 safaris so i denied their safari service which was budget compared to i had before.
Amb aquest lloc tinc contradiccions. Qualitat-preu és perfecte. El que ens va passar és que, quan vam arribar el propietari ens va dir que la nostra habitació no estava disponible perquè hi havia l’aigua espatllada, llavors ens vam quedar a la de davant (era del seu germà). El noi era molt amable, ens va explicar que ell feia safari, que el podiem fer amb ell, etc. De moment tot anava perfecte. Quan li vam comunicar que no voliem fer el safari (ja n’haviem fet un) la cosa va canviar, no el vam tornar a veure i no responia els whatsapps (no sabiem el wifi, on esmorzavem, etc). Ens vam sentir una mica “desemparats”, es va despreocupar.
Super kind hosts, they even helped us with a private safari in a udawalawa national park. Delicious local breakfast and dinner. The place is very peaceful.
AMAZING safari tour, great experienced driver, one in a milion experience, lunch and power nap - more than amazing. provided a good room as i requested.
Breakfast was amazing and so much food. The hosts were so nice and scheduled a nice safari for us. Would definitely recommend!
Cozy comfortable rooms. Well maintained wash rooms. Safari can be arranged. they also give a discount when u stay in their room.
Le meilleur hôtel que nous avons eu au Sri Lanka. Le personnel et le propriétaire sont adorables. Le petit déjeuner est incroyable, le riz curry proposé le soir est excellent. Nous avons réservé le safari avec eux et leur chauffeur est parfait. Meilleur rapport qualité prix de notre séjour. Allez y les yeux fermés.
Amazing experience.Great pool and restful foods.Safari was perfectly organised.Thanks
FABULOUS!!! Amazing value, very friendly & helpful staff. Food was delicious!! and plentiful. Rooms were large & spacious. Swimming pool area with Sun lounges. ( probably loose the Sun about 4pm ) I would definitely recommend you stay at udawalawa safari house!! We think our best stay in Sri Lanka so far !!
We absolutely LOVED our stay udawalawe safari house! After changing our plans and coming to Udawalawe a night earlier than planned (and in need of some luxury), this place was exactly what we needed. The hosts were so friendly, the buffet dinner was delicious and great value and the swimming pool was amazing. They organise safari for us with easy and served breakfast on return. The rooms were well sized and comfy. Would 100% Recommend!
I am very happy with my choice of this hotel. It is located just a 5-minute jeep ride from the national park, yet far enough from the main road to ensure complete peace and quiet. The hotel is surrounded by a beautiful garden, where peacocks, squirrels, lizards, and other wildlife freely roam. It was wonderful to be immersed in the sounds of nature, making it feel like an extension of the safari experience. The rooms, especially those on the first floor, are spacious and very comfortable. The food was good, with both à la carte and buffet options available. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the pool was well-maintained.
This is the most incredible family run hotel, I cannot praise it enough. Located just down the road from the National Park so it's the most perfect resting spot either before or after a Safari. You cannot really describe the tranquility and peaceful ambiance of this hotel, it is incredible! The rooms are immaculately clean, really comfortable and well presented. The owners went above and beyond to make our stay wonderful and were so kind and friendly to both us and our children. The hotel has a fantastic pool which is the perfect place to cool off in the afternoon. The food is some of the best that we have tasted whilst travelling Sri Lanka, completely delicious and freshly cooked dinner and breakfast. The value for money is excellent and you get the feel of high end at a really reasonable price. I'd say that this hotel is a must stay whilst visiting this area. We plan to return on our next trip. Thank you for everything.. See your options
An absolute gem! The host was super friendly and arranged a great safari with a well-informed and kind guide.
The host was so friendly and arranged everything to do with safari the night before. The food was amazing and for such a good price, it was really nice to have a sun lounger and pool experience! The safari was excellent so definitely recommend the early wake up
It wasn’t the most social event for a solo traveller but that is to be expected and not the fault of the owners.
Nice and clean swimmingpool, location perfect for Safari. Room was OK for that price. Big comfortabel bed with klamboo. Friendly host who arranges safari.
Only thing: NO AC in our room, only fan. Very hot at night. Bathroom hot water was difficult to manage.
Great value for money. No pressure. Clean. The breakfast was the best we've had in sri sri.
Nothing.
At 6$ a night it is hard to complain. For that price the available pool is incredible and the rooms are fine. Includes a quite OK breakfast!
Do not expect a fancy clean apartment complex. Cabins are accessible via a narrow messy path and pool/cabin environment is also messy. There was a family party and 6 guys jumped into the pool 5 metres from our cabin at 1u30 AM!
The place was just better than we expected for this price. Large very comfortable rooms. And the food served at the place (dinner and breakfast) was carefully prepared and delicious.
Woooooow very good service. clean pool. thanzzz.manager & all staf service very friendly ...👍
The staff were so lovely. Location great to get to safari and overall a fab stay!!

Lovely friendly family, nice pool, arranged great safari for us, food was really good. All in all very good value.
Only thing would be nice to have had a mosquito net on the bed.
Best place I've stayed in Sri Lanka, the room, the pool, the food, everything was great. I did the safari with them and was a great experience, the guide was very good.
Nothing
The breakfast is hearty and very good, and the beautiful pool adds charm to the overall experience. The owner also booked us a fantastic safari which was very special.
The room was nice and clean and the staff very nice. The newly built swimming pool is a stunning addition to the local community. budget stay with all the facilities.
Great people, amazing pool. Best dinner we had in Sri Lanka!!! We didn’t attend any safari, because we loved the place and enjoyed some rest in pool there. Amazing place, very clean- you have to visit and try family dinner!
Great accommodation, great food and very good tour of Udawalawe National Park. pool activities were superb.Thank you.
The place is more than perfect, a really cozy home. thushara, the owner, is very kind and helpful. I can’t describe our breakfasts, delicious and incredible views. had fun in the pool. finally the safari arranged by the hotel. Thanks for everything!
it was much more luxury than i paid for the room. they really treat customers well. kudos to the owner and staffs.

i think their main focus on safari but they didn't forget to focus on rooms and foods. served well also had a 3 hr safari with them which was so much fun and thriller.

good accommodation with a good customer service. breakfest with high quality of srilankan coffee. We enjoyed it very much.
The staff very organised and professional. The driver turned up on time and as planned and they accommodated my request to change the drop off location. The safari guide was excellent - knowledgeable and made sure I caught sight of a leopard! The jeep was very comfortable. Really great experience - thank you.
We come back to udawalawe Safari camp as often as we can and we are never disappointed.rooms and other facilities were best. The atmosphere is so serene, the tents are comfortable and exceptionally clean and the food is delicious! Add park safaris to the mix and you have the perfect getaway! Highly recommended.
