The cooking class was a great experience, and eating by the bonfire under the stars was incredible.
The garden is gorgeous, with palm trees and peacocks roaming around.
The meal we had after cooking was definitely the highlight of our trip.

Prashan is the best host! The whole experience was a 20/10. The resort is a little off the beaten track but when you arrive it is well worth it. It’s right on the river, very quiet. The dinner was amazing. Seriously the most romantic experience ever. I will never forget the dinner. He arranged the Safari and everything for us. I could write a book about how much we enjoyed our stay. Nothing, it was perfect.
“Peaceful River Stay”
Very beautiful and peaceful spot by the river. Lovely meal spot! As a solo female traveller I felt safe and comfortable! Prashan, the host, is friendly and welcoming. I enjoyed the cooking class and cooked up a feast! Also went on the safari organized and have no complaints – saw lots of elephants! Good AC. Wifi wasn’t working the first night (host acknowledged – then worked perfectly the next day). Data worked for me by the river too. I’d definitely recommend staying at least one night and doing the cooking class in the evening then the safari the following morning. 😊 If staying beyond one night, there is not so much to do during the day due to remoteness beyond the set offered activities (besides read a book and relax). However, the host offered transport to kayaking or the elephant transit home as optional activities too. I was happy to relax!
That was the most beautiful night we ever had in Sri Lanka; everything was perfect and we were completely happy.
“Mooie kamers in een prachtige omgeving”
The peaceful surroundings, right next to the river! Actually nothing.
The spot sits right in the middle of nature, so keep in mind there are no nearby services; it’s the perfect base for a safari at Udawalawa National Park. The owner, Prashan, was very kind and helpful, cooking us lunch and breakfast with local dishes. I highly recommend the cooking class with him—he guided us step by step and everything turned out delicious.
