Wild River Side, hotel in Udawalawe

Located in Udawalawe in the Ratnapura District region, Wild River Side provides accommodations with free WiFi and free private parking, as well as access to a hot tub.

Very calm and quiet place in Udawalawa. We loved the nature around. Many birds singing in the morning and everting. You could even see a monkey swinging on the nearby tree :) We were welcomed with a cold juice. The room was spacious and clean. Very comfortable. The dinner was one of the best we ate in Sri Lanka. Delicious homemade rice & curry. The same thing for breakfast, really tasty. In our room we had a kettle, tea, coffee and a bottle of water. We were just passing through Udawalawa, but would definitely spend more time in Wild River Side if we could :) Thank you!

Lizard Safari Lodge, hotel in Udawalawe

With Udawalawe National Park reachable in 8.8 miles, Lizard Safari Lodge provides accommodations, a restaurant, a garden, a shared lounge and a bar.

The room was spacious and it felt a bit like being in a jungle camp, perfect preparation for the safari tour the next day. Host was very friendly and accommodating. He runs safaris in Udawalawe NP and arranged for me to join another group so I could share costs. The half day safari was excellent. He found lots of elephants and other animals stopped long enough to take good photos and enjoy the animals.

The Rainforest Ecolodge - Sinharaja, hotel in Udawalawe

Located on a division of the Enselwatte Tea Estate, The Rainforest Ecolodge offers accommodations with a private bathroom surrounded by a forest habitat.

Beautifully located in a remote and secluded area on top of the mountain. The journey to the premise is an adventure in itself. You have to switch to a 4x4 for a bumpy 45-minute ride with spectacular views. The staff, from the reception to the restaurant, especially the restaurant staff, are very nice and friendly and helpful, not to mention very efficient. Food is always beautifully prepared and presented. Exotic fresh fruit juices that were never seen anywhere else are served here, like wood apple juice and sour sop juice. Enjoyed the place a lot!

    Brand new little and so beautiful lodges in a garden full of palm and banana trees. A balcony out of wood and a hammock to relax in the garden. The room has a mosquito net and the shower is a waterfall. Such a nice host, good communication, good food and service. He organized a safari with a skilled, nice and friendly driver. He took care of the tickets and everything, great al inclusive package . We saw so many beautiful animals and they even arranged a breakfast for us at a nice place in the national park.

    The lodges were spacious and stylish and the outside bathroom is a fabulous feature. Pool is lovely. Very peaceful environment. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Food was very good both in the evening and for breakfast. We did an early morning safari one day and the breakfast provided for that was really good. Also, our guide, Gayan, did a fantastic job during the safari.

    Wonderful place to stay prior to safari. The lodges are cute and great and the pool area is fantastic. The area in itself is not as touristy as some other areas in Sri Lanka and that reflects restaurant, the personnel, etc. However, everyone did the best they could and the food and drinks were completely fine. The safari they arranged was excellent.

    Tranquil, just a few lodges, so not overrun with tourists like us! Beautiful tropical garden setting. Lovely pool, extremely helpful and pleasant staff, clean and tidy. Breakfast particularly good. The safari tour and driver arranged for us was outstanding and excellent value for money.

    Beautiful spacious safari lodges with a refreshing pool. We did the safari and it was amazing - we saw so many animals and learnt so much. We'd recommend paying for one of the official park guides - it was cheap and he was so knowledgeable. Our driver was great too and in communication with other drivers to ensure we saw lots of wildlife. Lahiru was a great host and also let me use the kitchen which was appreciated.
