Our hosts were extremely friendly and attentive. We had an issue with the sink in our bathroom and Tiron came to fix it within minutes. We also dined an Mansala House after our safari, the food was fresh and delicious. Tiron also arranged our safari guide who was great.

5 star customer service by this hotel. Tiron informed us before we arrived that there was an issue with the room, so he took the liberty to book us an alternative hotel that turned out to be just as nice as his! Communication was easy with him via WhatsApp, allowing us to easily book a safari the very next morning with a very well spoken and knowledgeable driver/guide. 10/10 would stay again.

Amazing stay and wonderful hospitality
We had an amazing stay here. The room was lovely with an outdoor bathroom , a veranda and jungle views with toucans and wildlife in the garden area. The owner and his family were incredibly hospitable, we had juice and lovely cake on arrival, we requested our safari tour and this was organised immediately which we really enjoyed. a fantastic breakfast was served after we returned and then a car organised for our onward destination. Such a lovely experience and would definitely recommend a trip here. i did a lot of research before booking and this paid off.

Beautiful family home
Tiron and his family were wonderful hosts. It was lovely to be welcomed into their home so warmly. We didnt have to think about anything during our stay with them. Food was always freshly prepared and ready for us. Tiron organised our safari tour with Devinda who was an excellent guide and driver who seemed to find us all the animals, stopped and waited to let us watch for several minutes. We were often the only ones around. We loved that he was able to share facts and all types of details about what we saw. Excellent english as well. Tiron also helped arrange our onward travel transfers. He was such a helpful and thoughtful host, thank you so much for your kindness!!

Beautiful Location and Kind Owner
What a beautiful location and home. The air conditioning was on in the room when I got there which felt amazing in the heat and the owner was extremely welcoming, kind, and helpful. He helped me book a safari tour right away and made me feel extremely comfortable. Outdoor rock shower was very cool and the breakfast was yummy. Would definitely come back!

We stayed for two nights with Tiron and his family, who could not have done more to make us feel very well looked after. The house is located in a beautiful, peaceful location and we very much enjoyed the beautiful meals cooked for us. Highly recommend.

Highly Recommend
I can’t say enough good things about Tiron and his family who run the Mansala Safari Guest House. They set us up with a great safari guide, and cooked up some delicious traditional Sri Lankan food. This stay is a great value for your money and I would highly recommend if you’re planning on visiting Uduwalawa.

Mansala Safari House is just perfect. The rooms are beautiful, really good quality and spotlessly clean. Each room has a private veranda and it is so lovely to sit there on an evening listening the relaxing music, surrounded by palm trees and the sounds of nature. The owner Tiron and his family have got it exactly right, they are very welcoming whilst still giving you privacy. Tirons wife is a fantastic cook and they can arrange breakfast and dinner for you if you ask. Tiron is also able to arrange anything you need such as transport and of course safaris. Tiron uses 2 experienced safari guides, I had 3 private safaris with Nadeera and he was excellent, very quiet and respectful of the animals whilst delivering an outstanding experience for you. I could not believe the amount of elephants, monkeys, crocodiles and other endemic animals, as well as so many beautiful coloured birds. It is very reasonably priced too. Tiron sees you off at 0545 or 1400 supplying binoculars and water and is waiting for you on your return to make sure you have had an amazing experience. I cannot fault Mansala Safari House at all. I am travelling Sri Lanka alone and have felt very safe and happy here. It is the nicest place I have stayed in Sri Lanka and I do not want to leave! If you are staying anywhere in Sri Lanka THIS is the place.

Nice property
Nice property. Quiet leafy location not far from town. Friendly owner and family. Clean sheets/linen and comfortable bed. Quiet a/c and adequate wifi. Excellent breakfast. Only thing lacking was desk/chair and TV in room. I would stay again - good value and convenient to Udawalawa National Park Safari jeeps.
