Grand Tamarind Lake ★★★★

📍 Kandasuridugama Raja Mawatha, Kataragama

"I should make a review for this wonderful hotel. Very calm place and everything clean and tidy. Specially it’s really worth for money too and staff was very attentive. Dammi from reception supervisor I guess she was very good with dealing professionally and also she arranged nice cake for my mom’s birthday. Also rooms are specious with huge balcony and nice view. Only thing they should focus bit more about maintain of the pool. Apart everything very smooth and well arranged.!"

Gal Oya Lodge
9.5 (41 reviews)

Gal Oya Lodge ★★★★

📍 893M+3P, Moneragala

"Hidden in the forest lies this beautiful haven of understated luxury which also cares deeply about the eco system it inhabits. The main buildings were constructed traditionally- airy, good to look at and spacious. As was our gorgeous lodge with our own little infinity pool. We enjoyed a walk with the Veddha leader - a magical experience- and a wonderful boat safari. Wild elephants bathing in the lake undisturbed, eagles, crocodiles, even a tiger sighting. We had engaging, knowledgeable guides too. In fact all the staff were professional and friendly and the food delicious. It was lovely to see how excited the staff were to show us a Sri Lankan Frog Owl on our last evening. As pleased as their guests! Highly recommended. Thank you Gal Oya!"

Centauria Wild
8.7 (56 reviews)

Centauria Wild ★★★★

📍 CVP5+WQJ, Katupilagama, Moneragala

"A lovely stay at this lovely hotel. Old style charm and wonderful srilankan hospitality. Immaculately clean with huge bedrooms and shower. Such friendly, polite and accommodating staff. Lovely menu with local and international food and nothing was too much of an ask in accommodating our palette and requests. Amazing service! Gorgeous grounds and gardens with amazing views to the lake and mountains beyond with beautiful birds and butterlies. A fabulous pool and slide for an excited child! A small hotel wiith tradition and authentic srilankan culture. Please visit them and experience with peace and tranquility and all the lovely things offered. Its not modern but thats thr charm for us. Ideal base for our safari only 5 mins away. So many members of staff and managers to mention who work round the clock. Highly recommend."

Jetwing Kaduruketha
9.5 (67 reviews)

Jetwing Kaduruketha ★★★★★

📍 Wellawaya, Moneragala

"The hotel is very naturally situated in a rice paddy, with only 25 buildings in total, resulting in a very low density, making it suitable for those who like to get close to nature. However, it should be noted that some basic rooms do not have air conditioning, and the shower and toilet are outdoors. If you prefer, please book a room with air conditioning."

River Cottage
9.4 (11 reviews)

River Cottage ★★★

📍 Hadapanagala Regional Forest Office Road, Wellawaya - Tanamalwila Rd, Hadapanagala, Moneragala

"Spent one night at this property. Relatively new property. They have Double and Triple rooms even including AC with some rooms. Simple rooms. Clean bathrooms. Nice dining area and relaxing area at the front. Most importantly, very nice river is just passing by this property called "Kirindi Oya". You can have a nice river bath as well and of course you better check the river condition with the hotel staff before getting in. Overall nice stay at Wellawaya."

Kalu's Hideaway Udawalawe ★★★

📍 CR8W+CG3, Walawegama Rd, Moneragala

The butterflies and birds were also lovely. Very peaceful, relaxed environment backed up by a good team of staff from front desk to garden. Would definitely recommend a stay here."

Governor's Camp Udawalawe

Grand Tamarind Lake ★★★★
"This is our second stay at this hotel returning after just 10 months . Our experience with them we can honestly say was even better ( we didn’t think that was possible before our return ) than when we stayed with them in January 2025 . The location , the food and comfort was excellent but the crowning glory of this hotel is their staff who will go to great lengths to provide their guests with an extremely comfortable stay . It felt like coming home . Thank you for a lovely stay !"

Gal Oya Lodge ★★★★
"Amazing eco lodges. We had a plunge pool which was very welcome in the heat. The outside bathroom was great. Very attentive service and food delicious. Elephants safaris were worth the early starts and the walk with the Veddha tribesman was a unique experience. Would highly recommend"

Centauria Wild ★★★★
"We had a wonderful stay at Centuria Wild in Sri Lanka. The accommodation has a traditional, slightly older charm, which really adds to the authentic experience of being surrounded by nature. What truly made our stay stand out was the exceptional service. The staff, and especially the manager Damitha, treated us with genuine courtesy and respect, consistently going above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable and comfortable. Our room had a beautiful view overlooking the lake, which made for a peaceful and relaxing setting. Although we didn’t get a chance to use the pool due to returning late from our safari, it looked pleasant and inviting. We were also impressed with the gym facilities—the space was generous, with more than enough equipment to enjoy a proper workout. Overall, a memorable stay with warm hospitality that really made a difference."

Jungle Paradise ★★★
"Out of all the overnight stays we did in Sri Lanka this was one of our favourites and and it was also the cheapest. The grounds are immaculate, the pool is well maintained, the rooms are large, clean and functional with jungle views. It is 10 minutes from Udawalawe National Park! Best of all, the food was outstanding! Our whole stay for one night with breakfast & dinner was £62! I highly recommend"

Kynrock Hotels & Resorts ★★★★★
"The hotel has a beautiful building and setting, rooms are big enough and staff is friendly, but that is about where it stopped for us. Our booking was not made or lost, we luckily got two rooms, took about 30min to get ready, safe was locked, no toilet paper and shower went cold after 2 min. Smaller bed than expected and room looks and feels like it is neglected. Bar only has one red and one white wine and one beer, although the bar menu is about 1 full page of items. On the dinner menu about 30% of the menu was not available. I must say the dishes that was available was very tasty. The whole hotel lacks a vibe, that touch that makes one feel home is just not there and more availability of F&B Proximity to nature reserve is great, but I think one can do a bit better and still be in the same area."

"Pros: Quiet and private environment, beautiful scenery, good quality breakfast and room service, good service. Cons: Arrived around 3pm, and waited for a full hour to check in, almost collapsed. The room has no air conditioning and simple facilities. Open bathroom, don't take a shower at night, it will be cold."

River Cottage ★★★
"Excellent place to stay, the AC rooms are very spacious and beautifully furnished. From the veranda you have a nice view of the garden and the sound of the river and peacocks all add to the magic. Clean rooms, good shower and a very good breakfast and dinner. The place is new so the photos do match, so no surprises there. Service both friendly and professional. Nearby temple is worth visiting and the road to it has some nice views as well."

Kalu's Hideaway Udawalawe ★★★
"This is a jewel on the emerald island everything about this hotel is beautiful the rooms the staff and the surroundings surpass all our expectations. We had a fantastic 2 day stay after awful start to holiday during the cyclone . This felt like a haven. Alll the staff are amazing but special thanks to Sandaruwan and Magala . I can’t name them all but the guys on reception and the chef and the cleaning staff. Nothing is too much trouble for anything you need. The food is amazing. This is a hotel not to be missed. It is an absolute delightful hotel in beautiful grounds."

Governor's Camp Udawalawe ★★
"This is by far the worst service I have ever experienced. The location might be acceptable, but everything else—safety, food, and service—is absolutely terrible. The staff have no respect whatsoever for customers, completely lacking even the basics of hospitality. The so-called welcome drink was not fresh and literally undrinkable. The food was horrible, poorly prepared, and not even sufficient for the number of guests. It was an absolute embarrassment. If you value your time, money, and dignity, do not choose this place under any circumstances. Go here only if you have no other option—otherwise, you’ll deeply regret it."
