Large pool and beautiful jungle setting. Good pool side areas with lots of shade. Food at dinner was very tasty and good value. The management agreed to room upgrade after the room we were given was not good. ( check whether your room has a balcony as the rooms in the 'block' do and those in the main building do not ) Playing pool before dinner Great AC in the rooms Good value safari driver arranged by the staff in the hotel ( tip. we paid the driver $40 for the driver, and bought tickets on arrival at the Udawalawe park entrance. you can pick up a local volunteer guide in the car park as you buy your tickets who can talk through the animals and park detail. we then tipped the guide around $10. The total for the 3 hour safari worked about $40 per person)

Royal Tusker Hotel, hotel in Udawalawe

Featuring free bikes, garden and views of garden, Royal Tusker Udawalawa is set in Udawalawe, 1 km from Udawalawe National Park.

The room was HUGE, as was the bathroom. We had so much space, and a great view. A juice was provided on arrival which was a nice touch as well. The host was super helpful in organising a tuk tuk for us when we wanted to go visit our friends down the road. The location is only about a 5-10 minute drive from the park entrance, which is super convenient as well.

    Exceptional price for the best value! Outstanding place to stay! As soon as we will be back, we will come again! Everything is so clean, new equipment, made with love and passion! The host was so helpful and great! The home cooked food was one of the best and served so beautifully. We loved our room, the garden for yoga, the rooftop for relaxing, the location close to the baby elephant orphans station, Honestly I can just warmly recommend you to stay there, you will have all you need and even more for an amazing Udawalawe experience and you can book Safari and straight with the owner, they can organise everything for you. thank you soo much rayan.

    We had an absolutely wonderful experience at this accommodation! The staff was incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to assist with anything we needed. The safari they organized was impressive and the jungle garden with its beautiful flowers, plants and fruits especially delighted the children who got to try some fruits. The air conditioning worked well and it was the only place we stayed in Sri Lanka with continuous hot water for showering. I highly recommend this place to anyone looking for an unforgettable stay in Udavala!

    Udawalawe is an ELephant Safari park primarily and one would expect to see many elephants however pls inquire from your hotel prior booking because during the hot season you will not see elephants freely roaming around. also if there are too many vehicles entering it becomes too crowded. If the days are hot and humid suggest not going in the morning you wont see animals

    The restaurant has a great offer and good prices & the staff is so friendly and helpful! Of course we did a safari that was arranged by the hotel. Our drivers name is ravind and he did such a wonderful job, I would always recommend him. He was friendly, helpful and translated the animals name in his language. He did his best so we could spot a lot of different animals and of course a ton of elephants! We really enjoyed the time with him.

    Perfect stay! The location is quiet & the rooms are incredible. Very clean and comfortable: shower that works perfectly, comfortable bed, air conditioning. I went on safari with the host and the value for money is unbeatable: 5h safari, all included (breakfast, entrance, etc.). It really met my expectations! I can only recommend staying at wild park safari home stay .

    It was the perfect place to relax before and after the Safari in Udawalawe National Park. Ideally two nights are perfect. Our accommodation (luxury tent) was really nice, well designed and comfortable, a plus was the outside bathroom with jungle view. Also this place has everything inside, two swimming pools, a spa (quite pricey for Sri Lanka) and an exceptional restaurant with very good prices too. Breakfast was excellent with plenty of choices. We’d definitely recommend to our friends visiting the area.

    Absolutely fantastic place. For a more than a fair price you get SUPER clean rooms (travelled with family) and Gayan is a really great safari driver, knows all the spots and how to get everywhere first. Hotel is 1 min drive from the entrance of Udawalawe National Park. The breakfast prepared for the trip was delicious, nicely balanced. Oh, one more thing: lunch prepared for us after the safari was one of the best Sri Lankan food I’ve ever tried (and I’ve tried a lot). Thank you! Definitely recommend !!

    Beautiful location on a small lake, great food, very friendly and helpful owners, small but clean rooms. And the owner Samantha is providing the best safari tours at Udawalawe National Park. Book an all-day tour with him, you will not regret it. We met many tourists doing a 4h tour starting in the early morning who haven’t seen a single elephant. We started later, but took our time and went deep into the park. At the end of the day we saw more than 50 elephants, 5 crocodiles and many other animals.

Also games to play and outdoor seating. It was a prefect location for the fabulous elephant transit home and close to Udawalawe national park. Janaka provided wonderful food and organised our safari. He also provided us with the best driver, Mr Chandi, who also does tours at your request (+94 77 672 8106).
