    Enjoyed our stay, had fine 2 days overall. Stayed in tidy double room with a nice garden with very cool outdoorshowers, a waterfall bathroom plus an outdoor shower. The staff was very good and best and the owner too. The hotel was in an absolutely perfect location adjacent to Safari Park and the jungle.

    Our stay at Hasthi Safari Cottage was amazing! The host was incredibly welcoming and helpful. The safari they arranged for us was unforgettable, with up-close encounters with wild elephants, lizards, toucans, peacocks. The outdoor shower and disco lights around the bed added a fun touch. We had everything we could want and enjoyed a delicious breakfast in the national park.

    Felt safe and secure, no complaints at all.

    I recently stayed at Database pros in Udawalawe for a few nights and had an amazing experience. The owners, Dasun and his family, were incredibly friendly and helpful. They assisted us in organizing a safari and provided a wonderful driver who ensured we had a fantastic trip. Dasun's mom cooked us delicious meals, and the cottage itself was comfortable and cozy. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a peaceful and enjoyable stay in Udawalawe.

    100% Recommend this hotel.

    We loved everything about our stay! the room was beautiful with amazing wooden detail and a unique outdoor bathroom. the owner was incredibly helpful and accommodating, recommending alternative activities when the safari park was closed and arranging a fantastic safari for us. the food prepared by the owner's mother was delicious and we were given a warm welcome with a delicious juice.

    The town where the hotel is located didn't have the same friendly atmosphere as other places we visited in Sri Lanka.

    had an amazing birthday celebration at a cozy cottage in Udawalawe. Hasthi Safari exceeded expectations with friendly host, comfortable beds, refreshing outdoor shower, and delicious meals. The private safari with a knowledgeable driver was a highlight. Highly recommend asking the host for safari options.

    Shower needed cleaning.

    Mi estancia en este hotel fue fantástica. Lo que más me gustó fue la limpieza impecable de las instalaciones. Además, el personal del hotel fue amable y atento en todo momento. Las facilidades del hotel, como la piscina y el jardín, eran excelentes y me permitieron relajarme después de un día de caminata por la preciosa zona de montaña. Además, estaba muy cerca del parque nacional, lo que me dio la oportunidad de disfrutar de la belleza natural de los Pirineos.

    We got incredible value for our money at Hasthi Safari Cottage. The room was beautifully designed, complete with an open bathroom featuring a waterfall shower. The location was peaceful and surrounded by greenery, and the staff treated us like family.

    Breakfast delights, but it would have been nice to have some juice and fruits included.

    Everything about this place was excellent! The location is amazing, with a beautiful and creatively designed garden view. The food was incredibly tasty and the rooms and bathroom were spotlessly clean. The host, Dasun, was so friendly and helpful, making our stay even more enjoyable. The safari arranged by the cottage was excellent as well, with a friendly and knowledgeable driver who helped us see a wide variety of wildlife. our experience at this place was absolutely fantastic and we highly recommend it for a memorable stay. We will definitely never forget this place if we visit Sri Lanka again. Thank you, Dasun, for everything! ❤️❤️
