Basically next door to the park entrance, incredibly delicious Sri Lankan home cooked dinner, good room and Susil went out of his way to contact a petrol station that charged me £100 on the way there, calling them and arranging for them to refund to his bank account and then giving me cash. Perfect place for a Safari. Highly recommend.

Of you are looking for a calm and relaxing place in the middle of nature with amazing food, come to this spot. However a basic accomodation, it is very clean and had al the necessities. There are options for safari, and we even got some amazing photographs of the experience after, that our guide (who knew the park so well and could tell us all about the animals!) took with his camera. We took the school bus to the junction to continue our travels at 6:15, and our hosts even provisies is with a cup of coffee before we left, how caring and nice!

I loved the hospitality of the hosts - felt at home right away! Right next to the national park

It is very close to the entrance to the park. Very welcoming and kind hosts, couldn't do more to make our stay just perfect. We went on a safari with Susil, we did see plenty of animals including a leopard. Susil is brilliant at spotting willd life when orhers just drive by. The room was small but very clean and comfortable with a mosquito net and air conditioning. Their little daughter Divina is just beautiful.

Susil was a great host for us. He took time to talk with us and tell us about the surrounding area and some of the history of Sri Lanka. Made us beautifully cooked homemade meals with traditional ingredients. Very kind man that made our stay an extremely positive one. Hostel is in the most perfect location literally metres from the entrance of the national park.

Just about 100 meters from the entrance to Wilpattu wildlife national park. The owner is and experienced tour guide and happily will tell you about the wildlife to be found, both in and out of the park. Just by the entrance to the park is a trail going around a beautiful lake where families come for a bath and swim. We were warned not to not to walk around outside after dark to avoid unpleasant encounters with wild animals. I would defintely go back there to stay if I am in the area.

Great location when visiting Wilpattu NP for safari. Owners where super friendly! Food, both breakfast and dinner, where home cooked and diverse. Bed was comfy, musquito net and ac in the room. The guesthouse is close to the Wilpattu entrance and easy to reach by road. Don't be surprised to see an elephant walking past the guesthouse. There is a lake near the place where you can walk and watch some wildlife as well. Owner has his own jeep and can arrange safaris for a fair price.

This was some of the best few days we had during our 2 week stay in Sri Lanka. Our hosts were very sweet and couldn’t do enough for us. Sussil offered us a safari tour soon after our arrival but wasn’t pushy or forceful. Immediately I felt he was very genuine in the price he quoted us and was able to bring it down by asking if we would share the jeep with other guests. His knowledge and skills on safari were excellent and we were not disappointed with our day. Even after a full 12 hour day safari Sussil made the guests Sri Lankan dinner and catered to everyone’s needs. Absolute hero with very good English skills. Room was good for the price and most importantly location just a few metres from the park entrance.

Susil is a very nice and attentive host. I felt cared for + he seemed glad to share personal as well as Sri Lankan stories, which I appreciated a lot. He took me on safari and though we didn't have any luck with leopards, elephants or bears, I felt like he was a good spotter of them. He pointed out many birds and reptiles that I didn't seeand one time we chased a leopard just because he had found one single track on the ground (while driving). Also he shared information about the animals through open window which I guess not all guides do either because of language or because jeeps don't allow direct communication through glass between driver and guests. Dinner was delicious.
