Silent bungalow have their own jeeps and can take your directly to Udawalawe National Park Safari with the owner’s son as driver and guide. Dushal was incredible at pointing out mongoose, lizards, birds, and sharing facts about elephants. I’d recommend asking if you can leave for the safari to arrive at gates opening as it seems lots of animals are less active in the middle of the day.
The dinner provided at 7.30pm by the owner was sensational and was well needed after a day of travel. The owner genuinely made me feel welcome! There’s also a beautiful cat (cats) that wanders the premises
If you arrive late in the evening, stay one night, and do an early morning safari (3 hours, 4 hours, or half day), you’ll have an amazing time.
These comments aren’t a reflection on Silent Bungalow itself but more a suggestion to align with expectations
Unfortunately, I was the only guest at the bungalow for two nights. While this isn’t the fault of the owner, there really was not much to do at the Bungalow nor was it very easy to get into the village to eat meals or look around. The village was also fairly deserted as it was the low season (May) - another reason to limit your time here.
In all fairness, the accommodation (basic bed, fan, bathroom) is close to what you’re paying for. However any mobile data or wifi connection is non existent.
The bungalow is about a 20 minute walk from Ret Junction (close to where the Elephant transit home is located). I’m not sure what the solution here is but just note that Silent Bungalow isn’t suitable for anyone wanting to spend time in Udawalawa itself. Even the owner himself, Sudath, didn’t really suggest anything to do around the town. Was also unfortunately locked into the property at 5.30am when I wanted to go watch the sunrise.
This isn’t so much a budget oasis in the jungle but rather a budget friendly stopover for your safari trip.
Hosted by a very friendly and welcoming family, we felt right at home at this lovely place. Cooking class was fun, educational and we ended with delicious food! Safari to nearby park was great as well.

Super Safari avec le fils du gérant. Grande chambre avec terrasse et cuisine excellente!
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 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.
The accommodation could really do with being upgraded.
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 !
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.
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.
L'endroit au calme, les hôtes attentionnés, la Cooking Class, le délicieux repas, le logement et le safari à prix imbattable.
Gentillesse des hôtes

Fabulous home cooked food (and cookery lessons). Peaceful garden setting and well located for a safari, which they provided, at the national park. All the family members were cheerful, friendly and helpful.
Really friendly, nice owner. We got everyday different breakfast and dinner - (vegan). They explain how to eat. If we travel again, we will stay again there. ❤️
Les propriétaires sont exceptionnels

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.
Dinners were a bit pricey compared to the room rates.
Tout. Le calme, la facilité à réaliser le safari ils organisent tout et c est très bon marché ! Le dîner et le petit dej sont supers bons et les hôtes adorables.
