The hosts and staff were very welcoming and accommodating. The room was lovely, comfortable and well furnished. All staff were helpful in arranging a safari and dinning requests.

We all really enjoyed our stay at Wild Wadi Wilpattu hotel. From the moment we arrived (really late in the evening) we were looked after extremely well by Manori and her team - they provided very tasty good value meals and organised a reasonably priced safari for us at short notice. The rooms are clean and spacious and the surroundings very nice. Our children enjoyed seeing the monkeys at breakfast and looking out for other wildlife. We were only sad we couldn't stay longer. Would definitely recommend - thank you for a lovely stay!

A real in the country experience with wonderful staff. Great access to the National park through a less busy secondary entrance. The food served was fantastic, real Sri Lakan curry.

Wild Wadi Wilpattu is an absolute gem for anyone looking to experience the beauty of Sri Lanka in a truly authentic yet comfortable way. The location is beautiful, right on the edge of Wilpattu National Park, making it the perfect base for safaris and nature adventures. The atmosphere is easygoing, rustic, and charming, with a wood and bamboo look that blends seamlessly into the natural surroundings. From the moment we arrived, the staff went out of their way to make our stay unforgettable. Their warmth and hospitality made us feel right at home. The Sri Lankan food they serve belong among the best we’ve had in Sri Lanka—fresh, flavorful, and made with love. We did both a boating safari and a wildlife safari, both arranged by the hotel. The boat trip took us to see the famous baobab tree and explore the lagoon, where we spotted countless birds in a breathtaking setting. On our jeep safari, we were lucky enough to see elephants, a leopard, bears, and many more animals—an unforgettable experience! The rooms were very clean, spacious, and had good air conditioning, providing the perfect retreat after a day of adventure. Adding to the charm, we had visits from monkeys, peacocks, and squirrels, which made our stay even more special. I would definitely recommend Wild Wadi Wilpattu to anyone looking for an authentic stay near Wilpattu, where you can enjoy the luxury of great food, comfortable accommodation, and incredible wildlife experiences—all at a very affordable price.

It was very peaceful amid farmland. The location near to the entrance of Wilpattu was really useful too. The people here are really friendly and incredibly helpful and Santa the wildlife guide was excellent. They arranged a safari, a boat trip and took us on a village walk too and also organised a driver for us at very short notice. The room itself was comfortable and reasonably well equipped. The food was patchy, saying that we had one of the best curries of our holiday here.

Our stay at Wild Wadi Wilpattu was nothing short of exceptional! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warm hospitality and incredible service. We had the opportunity to embark on two incredible safaris with the knowledgeable and friendly staff. The wildlife safari was absolutely breathtaking—we were lucky enough to spot leopards, elephants, crocodiles, and so much more in their natural habitat. The boat trip through the mangroves and lagoon was equally magical, offering stunning views and an up-close encounter with Sri Lanka’s diverse ecosystem. The food was simply outstanding—authentic Sri Lankan cuisine at its finest! Both breakfast and dinner were full of flavour, freshly prepared, and truly showcased the best of local dishes. The accommodation was comfortable, well-equipped, and immersed in nature. Waking up to the sounds of the jungle, surrounded by monkeys and wildlife, was an unforgettable experience. It felt like a true escape into the heart of Sri Lanka’s wilderness. What truly made our stay so special was the wonderful staff and the incredibly kind owner, who went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience possible. Their passion for hospitality and wildlife made us feel right at home. And last but not least—the absolute star of our stay was Duan, the owner’s young puppy. He is, without a doubt, the most adorable and charming little dog we’ve ever met! If you’re looking for an unforgettable adventure, breathtaking nature, and top-tier hospitality, Wild Wadi Wilpattu is the place to be! We can’t wait to return.

A comfortable jungle cabin with a plunge pool, surrounded by nature. Lots of wildlife to observe from our room. We saw about 20 monkeys running, jumping and swaying in the trees around the pond in front of the cabin, several langurs as well, a mongoose and lots of different birds as well as some local cows and a very friendly stray dog that was sleeping outside our door every evening and followed us from and to breakfast. We had planned to go on a safari, (and for that Wadi is perfectly located), however, the nearest entrance gate got flooded and shut just before our arrival, so we were u fortunately not able to do it, but nevertheless, we enjoyed being immersed in the peaceful surroundings and observing the wildlife around us. We also enjoyed the tasty Sri Lankan food prepared for us daily by the very kind staff.

Thank you for a lovely day/evening at your hotel. We were made to feel very welcome by the owner/manager and her team who work so well together. Communication regarding booking and organising the visit was excellent. We learnt a lot about nature and various bird species nearby. The food was so very flavoursome. Loved the decor of the accommodation. What a shame the weather was so wet. We ended up cancelling the safari due to the heavy rains and winds. Perhaps we will return another time and try again. Very best wishes.

Great secluded spot to soak up nature, watching giant squirrels and Langurs from your room. Elephants roaming the grounds early in the morning too 😎 Room was comfy with plenty of space, staff were super friendly and very helpful The private plunge pool was a lovely touch after a hot day out

We had a wonderful time. The accommodation was awesome and better then expected. The AC worked good and the pool was very nice to cool down. Around the accommodation there were a few monkeys to spot and observe. The best was the staff, especially Shantha. He's done everything to fulfill our wishes. The manager Manori is doing a good job too. Unfortunately, we had not the time to meet her in person.
