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!

Located 14 km from Udawalawe National Park, EdenHaven Cottage offers air-conditioned accommodation with a terrace. With garden views, this accommodation provides a patio. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace. EdenHaven cottage is most definitely a garden of Eden and a Haven from the rat race. the cottages are both modern and traditional with striking little artisan touches. the shower room is beautifully appointed. the outdoor private veranda was most relaxing, the lighting, natural teak wood floors and furniture are all the inspiration and imagination of a most hospitable and charming young man Anju. he couldn’t have arranged and done more for my husband and I. our breakfast, evening meals were varied, tasty and juicy. waking up to and settling into the evenings were harmonious, the garden produced the sounds of nature that send you to sleep and invite a new day. i can’t say enough about this open , warm, genuine family hospitality. i didn’t want you to leave. last but not least. my husband, Anju and his safari colleague Lasindu arranged to have my 61st birthday breakfast within the safari on top of a plateau overlooking the national park. cake , presents and a wonderful rendition of happy birthday could be heard by the whole national park… tearful and most privileged to have such attention to genuine detail. Anju and Lasindu and ian of course. thank you from the bottom of my heart for one of thee most memorable experiences.

Set within 15 km of Udawalawe National Park in Udawalawe, Nature World Udawalawe offers accommodation with seating area. There is an on-site restaurant and free private parking. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a year-round outdoor pool. Big and clean room, comfortable bed, with hot water. The ceiling fan was not functioning but they gave us a stand fan, which worked. But what made this place stand out is the very accommodating nature of Dimu and his staff. The breakfast was also delicious, the dhal curry is to die for. They also offered private transfer to neighbouring towns at affordable prices. They also offer affordable but very experienced safari guide (Sumudu) - we saw elephants at places where no one else was there. Definitely worth booking if you’re going for the safari!

Accessible via private entrance, all units have air conditioning, soundproofing, desk and a private bathroom with a walk-in shower. There is a seating and a dining area in all units. At the homestay, each unit is fitted with bed linen and towels. The hotel is very clean and comfortable in lovely surroundings. Close to bus stops, shops and restaurants. The owner of the hotel is a friendly a kind person. He made sure I knew about walking around the lake, he can help with booking the safari tour. He even made sure I got on the correct bus to Ella by walking me to the correct bus stop and waiting with me. He also checked that I arrived safely at my destination. Would highly recommend staying here.
