I had such a great experience there. The owner, Sanjaya really was so helpful. If there is any kind of problem, he will help you anytime. The room was comfortable, and nice in size, with a coffee maker and Air Conditioned as well. The bathroom has hot water. The breakfast is awesome, with many varieties of fruits, eggs, and curries. I can't even remember everything I had served on the table. The cherry on the cake, there is the POOL. Nice size, and the perfect temperature. Definitely, I enjoyed being there! The right place to stay in EMBILIPITIYA

The hospitality, and privacy are unmatched in this touristy area, two small private bungalows, hidden in the jungle-garden. We had an incredible stay. Leel organised the safari, which was amazing. He knows the park well, doesn't stay in the beginning of the park but drives well in the park to find the best spots! Dinner (curry) was great, Leels wife is an amazing cook! Will definitely recommend and stay there again.

Everything at Amba Kola was exceptional - especially the people. Louise, Janik, and Janik’s whole family are the loveliest people you will meet. The food is fantastic - everything is locally sourced and prepared with the finest spices and lots of love (Janik’s mom is an award-winning cook by the way). At Amba Kola the hosts will go above and beyond to make your stay memorable. They took us around in their safari jeep to see the elephants and wildlife and we even went swimming in the canal! The room (and the whole property) are lovely with so many personal touches to it. Louise is an artist and her art is present all over the place! Also, the outdoor bathroom is unique. I showered in the dark under the stars - an experience like no other. All I can say is: Come to Amba Kola and see for yourself. These people deeply care for what they do and it shows in every aspect. You won’t be disappointed!

Great hut with lovely private terrace, very quiet and relaxing after the busy cities. Host arranged a superb safari with breakfast and lunch included, we had a great day and very reasonably priced. Host was super friendly and we had a delicious dinner on the one night we stayed. They also arranged a cab for us to the next destination which was very helpful. Great value for money.

Remote and surrounded by nature. Was wonderful to peacefully wake up to the sound of birds. The dinners were great tasting and well presented. I was welcomed warmly and treated very kindly during my 2 night stay. The hotel arranged transport for me to and then from the hotel with a great local driver, Posheeter. The safari tour they arranged was with a great guide Nishander, he seemed very experienced and I saw lots of elephants, monkeys, mongeese, deer etc. The pool was clean and a comfortable temperature.

A walk into the small town of Embilipitya was always an interesting trip into real sri lankan life. Cafe's cake shops, restaurants etc - and banks/ATMs - in fact not much that you don't need. A 30mins drive to the beach going south and a 15 in drive to the national park for the elephants. To say nothing of the peacocks constantly gracing Illukawella's gardens.

We were only passing by for some business matters. But holiday wise nothing really much to see unless you're an agri culture enthusiast. Pretty close to Udawalawa National Park, so it's a good stop over for someone who wants to do Udawalawa Safari.

This hotel had lots of charm! The location is beautiful, just off the main road but surrounded by fields... you feel like you have entered a small paradise away from the chaos. The hotel is in a big old house, with a colonial feel and traditional decorations. The room was quaint, it was small and basic but met our needs. The house is surrounded by beautiful gardens, it was lovely to relax in the pool and enjoy the surroundings. Breakfast was generous and delicious!! Overall we really enjoyed our time here and would recommend this place.

The tranquility and peace of the house and grounds so near the town but far enough to feel a genuine feeling if being at one with nature. Meals, drinks by the pool and the general helpfulness of the staff all made staying a Illukawella a sheer delight. Having stayed in earlier years, before Illukawella was listed on Booking.com, the comfort and class has definitely reached another level. The elephant sancutary is not quite near enough the hear the herd at feeding or washing times but almost. they're a very short drive away.

It was a very pleasant stay for us. We had a really nice stay. The room was large, very clean, and came with a bathtub in the bathroom, which was perfect for mornings. The view of the lake from our room was beautiful and peaceful. Staff were friendly and welcoming, and the hotel had easy access to the safari park, which made our trip even more convenient. Vegetarian options at the buffet were limited However, the staff kindly prepared a few extra vegetarian dishes for us, which we really appreciated.
