Large pool and beautiful jungle setting. Good pool side areas with lots of shade.
Food at dinner was very tasty and good value.
The management agreed to room upgrade after the room we were given was not good. ( check whether your room has a balcony as the rooms in the 'block' do and those in the main building do not )
Playing pool before dinner
Great AC in the rooms
Good value safari driver arranged by the staff in the hotel ( tip. we paid the driver $40 for the driver, and bought tickets on arrival at the Udawalawe park entrance. you can pick up a local volunteer guide in the car park as you buy your tickets who can talk through the animals and park detail. we then tipped the guide around $10. The total for the 3 hour safari worked about $40 per person)

The room was HUGE, as was the bathroom. We had so much space, and a great view. A juice was provided on arrival which was a nice touch as well. The host was super helpful in organising a tuk tuk for us when we wanted to go visit our friends down the road. The location is only about a 5-10 minute drive from the park entrance, which is super convenient as well.

Udawalawe is an ELephant Safari park primarily and one would expect to see many elephants however pls inquire from your hotel prior booking because during the hot season you will not see elephants freely roaming around. also if there are too many vehicles entering it becomes too crowded.
If the days are hot and humid suggest not going in the morning you wont see animals

The restaurant has a great offer and good prices & the staff is so friendly and helpful! Of course we did a safari that was arranged by the hotel. Our drivers name is ravind and he did such a wonderful job, I would always recommend him. He was friendly, helpful and translated the animals name in his language. He did his best so we could spot a lot of different animals and of course a ton of elephants! We really enjoyed the time with him.

Perfect stay!
The location is quiet & the rooms are incredible. Very clean and comfortable: shower that works perfectly, comfortable bed, air conditioning.
I went on safari with the host and the value for money is unbeatable: 5h safari, all included (breakfast, entrance, etc.). It really met my expectations!
I can only recommend staying at wild park safari home stay

This is the best accommodation that we have stayed in. The family are very welcoming, quiet and gentle. We had hot water and air conditioning and a large room with an ensuite. It is all ivery clean. We were welcomed with tasty coconut drinks. The evening meal was an extensive selection of different curry dishes and really delicious. We also loved the curds and treacle afterwards. It's a great place to stay and do a safari in the Udawalawe national park which is 5 minutes away. We also had an amazing safari with Lahiru during our stay.
Beautiful location on a small lake, great food, very friendly and helpful owners, small but clean rooms. And the owner Samantha is providing the best safari tours at Udawalawe National Park. Book an all-day tour with him, you will not regret it. We met many tourists doing a 4h tour starting in the early morning who haven’t seen a single elephant. We started later, but took our time and went deep into the park. At the end of the day we saw more than 50 elephants, 5 crocodiles and many other animals.
Eagle Safari, is great for an overnight stay so you can take a safari at Udawalawe National Park. Hotel staff were able to organise the safarai and make suggestions on the best time to do it . The property is in a quiet secluded location, with the cabins overlooking a reserve. Included breakfast was good quality and you are able to request lunch and dinner as well,Take any snacks, supplies and money with you if you need them whilst there. Overall, a pleasant relaxing stay and nice friendly staff :)
The safari was very good and we saw many animals. We thank the safari driver for doing his best for us during our safari. The driver gave detailed information about all the animals. I appreciate the owner of the apartment very much. He gave us a very good discount. We even checked the prices online.. We also went to Yale National Park and we highly recommend the Udawalawe Perk compared to that. Thanks for the driver number. We are both animal explorers.
One of our friends recommended this place, and as he said, the place was great. The room was very clean and had all the amenities. Friendly staff and delicious food. The room is surrounded by trees and bushes. in the middle of the bush, birds singing all the time, and we even had a peacock fly right over us. We walked up to Udawalawe Dam to watch the sunset, and it was one of the best scenes we experienced in Sri Lanka. We’ll be back for sure.
