I’ve been in Sri Lanka for 4 weeks and stayed at more than a dozen places. This one I will never forget. When I first saw the ad, I thought it looked too good to be true. But since there was a special price for the opening, I thought I’d give it a try. I could not be happier with the choice. I've had an unforgettable experience. This place is absolutely fantastic! To help future guests, I will try to provide as much detail as I can in BOTH columns: The cottage only opened in February 2024, so everything is brand new. Unlike in other places, you actually get what you see in the pictures. Everything about this place is very well thought-through and built in a way such as to allow for a most pleasant stay: The cottage is located very quietly in the middle of nature but still close enough to town (5 min by tuktuk). It has an outdoor terrace with two regular and one swing chair offering a lovely view over the garden. The bedroom is beautifully designed and very spacious. The wardrobe and dresser offer plenty of space to store luggage openly and easily accessible. The beds are very comfortable and the mattrasses have standard European/US length (I mention this because sometimes in Sri Lanka, the mattrasses are shorter so that your feet stick out at the end). The A/C is very powerful and there are no smells (which sometimes happens with older models). It cools down the entire room very evenly. There are multiple electrical outlets which all types of sockets (even USB slots). There are light switches for every single lamp which allows you to set the lighting in just the way you prefer. Worth mentioning here too is the warm temperature of the light. The WiFi is reliable and sufficiently strong for browsing, streaming, and video calls.

Dasun, the owner, was super nice and organized a safari for us, brought us to the elephant orphanage, and as well to a river, so that we could refresh ourselves on those super hot days. The place is pretty, the room comfortable and the food was really good.

The place was just better than we expected for this price. Large very comfortable room. And the food served at the place (dinner and breakfast) was carefully prepared and delicious. Ideal place to stay if visiting National safari park. Good value for money.

I recently stayed at Green Paradise Cottage hotel in Udawalawe for a safari trip, and I must say, the experience was magical. The ambience truly made me feel like part of a family, enhancing my overall stay. I highly recommend their dinner, as the host prepared the most delicious food I’ve ever had in Sri Lanka. Everything was impeccably clean, which added to my comfort. Additionally, the host was incredibly helpful, assisting me from A to Z in planning the safari. The pricing for the safari was very convenient compared to other options. Overall, this hotel offered a memorable experience that I highly recommend!

We really enjoyed our stay here - the staff were amazing, super friendly and helped us in any way they could. The room was spacious, had a fridge and kettle and was really clean. The shower was warm and the bed was comfortable. The WiFi was also very good. We sat on the balcony for a few hours watching the sun set and the wildlife and it was so peaceful. The staff also helped us with booking the Udawalawe national park safari and even paid for a tuktuk to the bus station.

good water pressure and heat. Cooking class is fun. We learned a lot. Dinner with bonfire under the stars is just wonderful. Breakfast by the river is also nice and relaxing. The host Prashan provided everything we needed. The safari trip was so much fun.
