The location of the hotel couldn’t have been better! The room looked onto the pool and was beautiful. The rain couldn’t be helped but it was quite loud against the roof of the room. The Sri Lankan breakfast after my safari was lovely and I also had dinner the night before, however I would say there wasn’t very clear communication of timings or where to go once I checked in but for dinner the guy from the hotel on WhatsApp answered all of my questions.

A peaceful nature retreat with incredible fresh food.
Our stay at Kalu’s Hideaway was a wonderful experience from start to finish. We loved the wholesome farm-to-table dining—tasting fresh red dragon fruit straight from the garden, sweet pineapples, mangos, and delicious Sri Lankan vegetables.
The property itself is surrounded by nature. The butterfly garden was an unexpected treat, and waking up to the tranquil morning sounds of birds overlooking the Udawalawe reserve canopy was magical. You...

Rating is based on the fact it is a camp. The staff is great, really friendly and take good care of you. They helped with anything we needed. It is a bit hard to find, but they met us on the road and brought us to the camp site. The location is well kept. Since it is a camp, there are bugs, there are reptiles, but the staff do their best to keep them out of your way. The breakfast was great and very peaceful.

Agthira river camp was excellent. The staff were all friendly and the room was so nice. Looking onto the river was very relaxing and hours were spent watching the monkeys. The buffet in the morning and evening was great. The safari was booked via the hotel and was a great experience.

We spent 4 nights in the tree house. It was great experience, the surrounding is beautiful and peaceful. The staff is really helpful and attentive. I strongly recommend taking a trip in the fishing boat at the near lake.

Great place to stay near Udawalawe Park! The family who runs it are really nice people. Very friendly and helpful. They just opened for the season and are still doing some renovations. The room was clean and comfy. The hotel has a safari truck. Very reasonable price to go on safari with them - much cheaper than the private companies you'll find online. Truck costs 3500 rupees and their driver is a good driver and a pretty good spotter. At the park it costs 7200 rupees for tickets for two...
