Absolutely wonderful place to stay. Accomodation finish quite basic, but everything you need and good air con. Outdoor shower was great felt very unusual, and the views out to the trees are gorgeous. Staff were excellent hosts, very helpful and hospitable, and helped out with plans and safari etc. Food was quite basic but delicious. Loved the lodge in a rainforest vibes, would highly recommend for a stay before a Udawalawe safari, but make sure to stay 2 nights so you can wake up to the sound of wildlife and have breakfast on your balcony on the day you’re not upnearly for the safari. Best place I stayed in Sri Lanka, and good price as well!

Unforgettable Moments at Hantara Udawalawa
I recently had the pleasure of staying at Hantara Udawalawa, and it was an experience that left a lasting impression on me. From the moment I arrived at this boutique hotel, I was greeted by friendly and attentive staff who made me feel welcome and at home. The hotel's location is truly a gem, surrounded by the serene beauty of nature. The lush greenery and tranquil atmosphere provided the perfect setting for a peaceful getaway. The nearby Udawalawa National Park added to the allure, as I was able to witness the incredible wildlife that Sri Lanka is renowned for. The accommodations at Hantara Udawalawa were simply superb. My room was spacious, and well-appointed, and clean. The comfortable bed ensured a restful sleep after a day of exploration. I particularly appreciated the attention to detail in the room's design, which combined modern amenities with touches of traditional Sri Lankan elements. In conclusion, my experience at Hantara Udawalawa was truly unforgettable. The combination of beautiful surroundings, comfortable accommodations, and attentive service made it a standout choice for a memorable stay in Udawalawa, Sri Lanka. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone seeking a tranquil retreat in the midst of nature's wonders.

Great stay!
We owned the whole hotel! It was low season and we were the only one on that night :) Open space private shower is cool but little challenge during raining season when it rain everyday, we had our shower in rain LOL... Arranged afternoon safari with the hotel at 13,000LKR, it was great but we should have bargain it as we read other reviews they did it at 10,009LKR. Fried noodles is good and we had our Sri Lankan breakfast in room, the milk rice with sambol was excellent super yummy!

Perfect place to stay when in Udawalawa.
Great place to stay when visiting the area for a safari. The staff are great and happy to help book a safari trip if you haven't already made plans. The outside shower is nice and the room comfortable with much needed air con. Good choice of food for the evening and the post safari Sri Lankan breakfast was delicious!
