Vacation rentals in Udawalawe Reservoir

Simple but clean bedrooms, friendly staff and gorgeous pool area!

Lake Villa is a very private and relaxing environment. If you need a wind down from the hustle and bustle of the city this is a good spot. Extremely peaceful and calm environment with nature all around. We even had peacocks walk by in the garden. During our holiday this is the last place we stayed at and hands down the best food and service. We were looked after very well. Highly recommend 👌

We decided to stay in Udawalawe quite spontaneously, that’s why we book the accommodation a day before our stay. I was positively surprised, how fast Tiron replied to my message and the request of doing a safari the other day. The accommodation is really beautiful and also Tiron as a host is super welcoming and kind. He organized the safari and the drive to our next stay for us. We can highly recommend!!!!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying here and my daughters were excited to have their own little house! It was well set up with a restaurant across the road for breakfast, lunch or dinner, and also packed breakfast for the safari if needed. The hosts were very friendly and showed us lots of birds and animals in the lush garden. They also shared badminton nets and cricket bats for our daughters to play and put up big hammocks to relax in. They were able to arrange everything such as the safari tour, a trip to the local Buddhist temple and to see a colony of fruit bats, and a car to our next destination. I’d recommend going for the 6 hour safari as you can go a bit further into the park and not be around as many jeeps. We saw elephants, mongoose, monitor lizards, the giant Sri Lankan squirrel, crocodiles, wallowing buffalo and 20+ kinds of birds. Recommended as a place to stay near the safari park entrance.

Fantastic stay, helped to book a safari the next day. Would highly recommend.

Beautiful venue with great activities to enjoy. Strongly recommend to purchase dinner and lunch, Prashan is a great cook! Prashan also helped us ordered a Safari tour, with breakfast packed for us to enjoy in the Safari. Highly recommend anyone who travels to Udawalawa to stay here.

We stayed one night here between Galle and Ella. Sanath arranged the transport for us which was very nice (and a super safe driver!l). The room is very clean. The family of Sanath is so friendly and made us feel really at home. It was possible to have diner and it was the most delicious of Sri Lanka we had till now. In the morning we did a safari. Sanath is really good driver and ranger and we were so Lucky to see small baby elephants. We all loved it!! thanks a lot for everything! We will remember it for a long time.

this place is a gem! secluded in the mountains, there is a bit of a hike to get tothe top, but its completely worth it. Karina was lovely and accomodating, and arranged an amazing tour to Sinhraja rainforest for us as well. I had a lovely time here, and look forward to staying again!

Sudath and his father were very kind and welcoming hosts. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable – we felt right at home. Dinner was absolutely delicious and lovingly prepared by his mother, which made the experience feel even more special. Thank you for the warm hospitality!
