Kalu's Hideaway Udawalawe

Kalu's Hideaway Udawalawe

10/10 Excellent
"A peaceful nature retreat with incredible fresh food. Our stay at Kalu’s Hideaway was a wonderful experience from start to finish. We loved the wholesome farm-to-table dining—tasting fresh red dragon fruit straight from the garden, sweet pineapples, mangos, and delicious Sri Lankan vegetables. The property itself is surrounded by nature. The butterfly garden was an unexpected treat, and waking up to the tranquil morning sounds of birds overlooking the Udawalawe reserve canopy was magical. You can even spot local wildlife right on the grounds, from vibrant water lilies in the ponds to land monitor lizards wandering past. It was such a serene and relaxing escape!"

"Very clean room.Lovely pool. The hotel is out of the way near the river. We loved the tranquil setting. Apart from our safari trip (which was arranged by the owner) we didn’t leave the hotel, which suited us because the food provided at the hotel is delicious. The only negative thing I would say is they could do with upgrading the recliners by the pool. "

  2. Look for last-minute deals on Hotels.com: To discover last-minute deals to Udawalawa, visit the DealsOpens in a new window or Last-Minute Deals sections on Hotels.com, where you may find discounted hotel rates as your travel date approaches. It’s wise to enable email alerts or push notifications from Hotels.com to stay informed about flash sales and special promotions, ensuring you could find opportunities to save. Additionally, the Smart Shopping tool available via the app allows you to compare hotel prices and amenities, so you're more likely to see when rooms become available or prices drop, helping you secure a last-minute getaway.
