Expected three star quality and was astonished upon check in. Excellent pool with sharp poolside service. Hotel is located adjacent to Udawalawe National Park Excellent safari coordinated by hotel, fully facilitated from start to finish. The restaurant staff was particularly kind and hospitable - run, don't walk to the hotel."

Nice and clean room and communal areas, good variety of food. Great location if you are visiting for the Safari, only ten minutes up the road. The transition centre, where you can see the young elephants being fed, is even closer.

The hotel is out of the way near the river. We loved the tranquil setting. Apart from our safari trip (which was arranged by the owner) we didn’t leave the hotel, which suited us because the food provided at the hotel is delicious. The only negative thing I would say is they could do with upgrading the recliners by the pool.

The location itself is amazing and the accommodation for ‘camping’ is incredible. The service wasn’t great however. As kind as everyone was the timings were very off. Being told we needed to be ready for breakfast at 8 and not being served till 9.30\. The same for dinner. We also told them we needed to leave on the final day at 7.30 so wanted breakfast at 7\. We arrived at the breakfast tent at 7 and no one was there. Unfortunately it was the same for the bush walks and the other activities. We request to do the 16km walk they advertised in their welcome message and on their website and they told us it wasn’t possible. We were told there would be a bush walk at 9 and we didn’t leave till 12 which was fine for us but for an 84 year old guest in the group it probably wasn’t the best time of day to go walking and all the animals would have been hiding from the sun. Such a shame as your rely so heavily on the hotel team given you are in the middle of no where " [](https://expedia.co.uk/Ahaspokuna-By-Eco-Team.h18468836.Hotel-Information) ![Centauria Wild](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/21000000/20250000/20240500/20240492/c24cc0b4_y.jpg) ### Centauria Wild 10/10 Excellent "Large clean room, great service, comprehensive breakfast, large pool, " [](https://expedia.co.uk/Udawalawa-Hotels-Centauria-Wild.h20240492.Hotel-Information) ![Elephant Rest Udawalawa](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/13000000/12380000/12376200/12376171/edcc5a58_y.jpg) ### Elephant Rest Udawalawa 10/10 Excellent "Clean room and nice setting.

The hosts are very kind and welcoming, and the house itself is clean and comfortable. The hosts arranged two safaris for us which were both excellent; the driver picked us up directly from the accommodation and was very knowledgeable about the park. We had the car completely to ourselves as well. The hosts provided breakfast in the morning, and also gave us water bottles and coffees for the safaris. During our second day we were reading on the lovely terrace and the host even came up with a fresh mango for us which was delicious. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone - lovely hosts and a great space!"
