Hotels in Sri Lanka

I liked many things about Nuga Retreat. First of all, the beautiful, natural surroundings with mountain views created a unique atmosphere of peace and relaxation. The rooms were comfortable and well-equipped, providing convenience, and the outdoor pool was a great place to unwind. I also really appreciated the friendly and helpful staff who truly made an effort to ensure our stay was enjoyable.

From the very first moment, we felt right at home. The hosts were incredibly caring and kind, making us feel like part of their family. Their warm welcome and continuous attentiveness made our stay truly special. One highlight was definitely the tour with the host (Rabi) to see the lorises. These fascinating creatures, which are hardly seen anywhere else in the world, left us completely enchanted. It was a wonderful experience that we highly recommend. Thank you for this unforgettable time – we will definitely be coming back!

I had a fantastic stay at Ocean Bliss Villa. The property was spotless, and the breakfast was delicious. The view was breathtaking, and the staff provided exceptional service, making us feel welcome from the start. Highly recommended!

Leel's place is the best place we have being in entire Sri Lanka. The place is well cleaned, beautiful, calm and romantic. Leel is a wonderful host, honest and decent, taking care of everything, making sure you will have the best stay. Leel's mother cook delicious food, served so well. The breakfast was made by Leel's wife and it was so good and tasty. Leel is the best Safari guide you will ever find in Udawalawe. He knows all the best spots in the park and provided us the best Safari experience we could ever ask for. I wish Leel all the best and I definitely recommend you to visit.

Great place. Very close to the stations. From the room you have very nice view.

As we really wanted to see wild elephants, we made a stop in Udawalawe, but spotting them wasn't our biggest suprise here. We stayed at the Amba Kola hotel and this was just the most wonderful experience. The kindest owners truely, the nicest room, a brand new and well kept pool, the most delicious food from the entire trip, and playful dogs amongst which the two most adorable puppies  🐶 As mentionned, the food was incredible and we had the chance to take part in the preparation by doing the cooking class with the owner. Something you should really try after a morning safari.  Janik is also so kind, ready to help you with anything, answer any question. He will make everything in his power to make you feel like the most valuable guest on the planet. If you are passing by, really we can't recommend it enough 😍 (we thought the 10 on booking was impossible. Well we thought wrong)

Best staff I have experienced. The guys were so friendly. They are amazing. The food and the spice route made this a 9+ experience. They deserve everything that is coming to them. Well done! We booked this hotel on our first day, since it was close to the airport, we might book on our last day as well.

Absolute the best hotel we have been in Sri Lanka. If you go to Hikkaduwa this is the hotel you must choose. Nice personel so kind and helpful. Fantastic breakfast.Clean and beautiful rooms with amazing seaview. The atmosphere is calm and relaxing. We Will give this hotel our best rekommandations.

Great breakfast, very friendly owner. Place was very clean. Nice pool to cool down

Uyana is exceptional. Janaka the manager is also exceptional. The landscaping is delightful. The premises are very very clean and Uyana is held to a high standard. Their is architectural merit in this retreat. As other reviewers have suggested however, it is Janaka that runs this operation beautifully. A very quietly spoken, discreet manager who appears to have gained a lot of experience along the way. He reminds me of the very best of staff in hotels in major cities. He makes things happen quietly. It appears as if everything is done with complete ease. I left my phone in a taxi after vacating Uyana. Janaka organised its retrieval. I was one of a few guests. Another guest during our stay lost her pack/wallet on a road locally. Janaka with all the quiet ease of a true professional retrieved everything very quietly. No fuss is made. If every visitor has a request outside of the norm it takes an experienced professional to keep everything running smoothly whilst keeping all the guests happy. Uyana Retreat has a real asset in their manager and he also appears to have pride in the very establishment that he is the face of. 5 stars.

I want to share my impressions of this heavenly place. An amazing, secluded place to spend a couple's vacation, exceptional service, hospitality, friendly hosts, and the most delicious breakfasts we've ever tasted!!!!! I am so charmed by this hotel that I would love to come back here again and again!!!

Budget hotel. Friendly service, It’s so cheap and the location is perfect for exploring national park.
