We spent two nights here as part of our two week holiday in Sri Lanka. This is the perfect base for exploring Udawalawe national park - the hosts organised everything for us (guide, jeep etc). The hosts were so helpful with everything and the food was the best we had during our time in Sri Lanka. Great value for money and highly recommended!

Great value for money. 2 nights recommended, Attentative staff! Safari / feeding elephants easy to reach. Mr. Namal was great! I do thank the owner for creating such a place! Two bedroom suite with balcony new. Inet - bad (but due to the power cuts). You buy for 5 USD your own local SIM card... PS: the last 200 m leading to the hotel could be renovated....?

No Grumble in the jungle!

Reviewed By DaveandPaula

We booked this through booking. Com for 3 nights so we could do the elephant safari and orphanage. When reading other reviews we thought it best to book half board. Oh boy what a great choice! This little resort comprises of just 3 cabanas, and a small restaurant/reception area. It's owned and run by husband and wife team Jayalath and Prasansha. We were welcomed by Prasansha who showed us to our cabana and explained a few details. One of them being the crocs outside the bathroom, just in case we need them in the shower to stop us from slipping, what a kind thought! The bed was very comfortable and very clean. Kettle, tea and coffee were available and a fridge with cold drinks, beer, nuts and biscuits at a very reasonable price. Outside there is a patio area with wooden deckchairs and table, and a hammock. Perfect for lazing! We had booked a half day safari with them at the time of booking, private jeep with an English speaking driver, so no need for a guide. He was amazing, with 8 years experience. and didn't follow all the other jeeps, he knew exactly where to go to give us the best safari. Breakfast too was provided overlooking the mountains. Idyllic! Breakfast here was typical SL cuisine, string hoppers, coconut roti, homemade pickles. Dinner was buffet style and so good! Prasansha asked us if we were vegetarian or if we didn't like too much spice, no on both counts for us! 10/10 for food and service. This little gem is perfect if you want a few days to do safari and orphanage (which is within walking distance). We were so warmly welcomed and really didn't want to leave so soon. Thank you guys for making this trip so perfect.
