Mansala Safari House

Mansala Safari House

8/10 Good
"Amazing experience with safari booked via this stay. The hotel is located in the jungle of udawalawe and the hosts were absolutely lovely. A lot of food options just ten minutes walk as well. Only issue was the chanting on a megaphone which was very loud which started at 4am until 6am and monkeys jumping up and down and running across the roof so I didn’t manage to get much sleep!"

"The staff were incredibly attentive, the pool was well maintained and fantastic addition. Prices for food and beverages extremely competitive. The food was some of the best we have had in Srilanka. Close to both the national park and transit home. Clean room and modern bathroom but lacked sockets for charging items."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Timbulketiya?
The best area to stay in Timbulketiya is near the Udawalawe National Park entrance, particularly along the main road leading to the park.This area offers the most convenient access to the park's main gate and is where most of the higher-quality accommodation options are located. You'll find a selection of comfortable guesthouses and boutique hotels located among lush greenery, often with views of the surrounding natural landscape. The main road itself isn't bustling, but it connects you directly to the park and a few local eateries.For couples looking for a relaxed safari experience, staying close to the park entrance is ideal. Many hotels in this area can arrange safaris directly from their premises, often including packed breakfasts or lunches for early morning game drives. This means less travel time and more time enjoying the wildlife.Families will also find this area highly suitable due to the ease of park access. Many accommodations cater to families with spacious rooms or bungalows and amenities like swimming pools.
When is the best time to go to Timbulketiya?
For most travellers, the best time to go to Timbulketiya is during the dry season, which runs from December to March.During these months, the weather is generally sunny with less humidity, making it ideal for exploring the region's natural beauty and outdoor activities. You'll find it comfortable for visiting the nearby Udawalawe National Park for safari adventures or enjoying the local tea plantations. This period is particularly good for families as the drier conditions make travel with children more pleasant.The shoulder seasons, April to May and September to November, can also be a good option for those looking to avoid peak crowds. While there might be occasional rain showers, these are usually brief and often lead to lush, green landscapes. Travellers keen on photography might appreciate the softer light during these times.We generally advise against visiting during the monsoon season from June to August, as heavy rainfall can disrupt travel plans and limit outdoor activities.
