Schöne Unterkunft mit lieben Gastgebern
Pros:

Die Unterkunft liegt in einem schönen verwinkelten Garten mit vielen Pflanzen und ist sehr sauber und gepflegt. Die Gastgeber waren sehr sehr freundlich, haben mir Tee gebracht als es meinem Magen nicht gut ging und eine tolle Safari organisiert. Das Abendessen ist auch zu empfehlen. Es war wirklich super nett!

Good location for visiting Udawalawe national park
Pros:

Good location for Udawalawe national park. This is a family run basic, low cost guesthouse, you can pay extra to eat at the accommodation and it was pretty good Sri Lankan food. They also offer their own safari package and the safari guide was very knowledgeable.

Cons:

The accommodation could really do with being upgraded.

Merveilleuse étape !
Pros:

Tout était parfait : emplacement au calme, grande chambre impeccable, clim et eau chaude pour ceux qui le souhaitent. Accueil adorable et très pro de Sudath et sa famille, qui a organisé notre safari et notre transfert à prix très avantageux. Et que dire du petit déjeuner au retour du safari : un délicieux festin ! Repas du soir également excellent et copieux sous forme de buffet. Bref on reviendra sans aucune hésitation !

Pros:

Petite affaire familiale, la maman et les 2 belles sœurs gèrent le cours de cuisine et toute la restauration, elles sont très pédagogues et nous avons vraiment passé un bon moment. Les fils gèrent les safaris photos au Park. Celui qui nous a accompagné avait l'œil affûté pour voir les animaux et une conduite douce. Nous sommes tous les 5 ravis.

Cons:

6h du matin pour le départ vers le Parc, c'est très tôt mais on comprend vite que cela permet de voir plus d'animaux.

Highly recommended – a beautiful retreat nestled in the heart of the forest, featuring spacious, immaculate rooms, excel
Pros:

A lovely spot nestled in the heart of the forest, with spacious, spotless rooms. The hosts were exceptionally attentive, and the meals were excellent. We took the afternoon safari, which was a great experience. We were initially concerned about disturbing the animals, but our host was mostly respectful of their space and behavior, while also making sure we avoided the other tourists.

Cons:

Dinners were a bit pricey compared to the room rates.

Highly recommend if visiting Ulawalawe, lovely hosts.
Pros:

Amazing friendly owners, cooked us the nicest dinner of the trip. Very happy with safari they organised. Appreciated the 3 beds in our room as travelling with a family. Excellent value for money.

Cons:

Our balcony area was a little small for all 4 of us (only 3 chairs).
