Situated in Pahala Maragahawewa, within 33 km of Kumbichchan Kulama Tank and 33 km of Jaya Sri Maha Bodhi, Wilpattu Restaurant & Guest house features accommodation with a garden and free WiFi as well as free private parking for guests who drive. The property is located 35 km from Nature Park Anuradhapura, 35 km from Anuradhapura Railway Station and 35 km from Kuttam Pokuna, Twin Ponds. The property is non-smoking and is set 34 km from Kada Panaha Tank. I loved the friendliness and helpfulness of the host and his family. He was able to help us arrange transportation to/from the guesthouse and also the safari jeep. The location is very quiet despite being by the main road. It’s located some distance from the safari but still relatively close by. we managed to see the elephant and even a leopard! The room itself was clean and well planned, all the basic amenities were provided for us.

Located 1.3 km from Kada Panaha Tank, Corner Cottage - Anuradhapura offers accommodation with a terrace, as well as a garden. It is set 1.9 km from Kumbichchan Kulama Tank and offers a 24-hour front desk. The guest house provides rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. Wonderful stay with Gihan and Dinu! We stayed twice for a total of 7 nights. A wonderful, authentic experience in Sri Lanka. They are extremely kind and welcoming. They speak English very well, and we were able to take the time to ask questions and discuss many topics such as culture, sports, politics, food, customs, etc. This allowed us to better understand this country. They truly care about their guests, making sure we have everything we need and giving great tips for visiting the city and its surroundings. They offer breakfast, lunch, and dinner if needed (we recommend trying it at least once because it's delicious). We did the cooking program, which involves buying ingredients at the market and then cooking together. It was great to see all the flavors they add to the dishes we enjoyed afterwards. They know a contact for a safari in Wilpattu National Park and can help organize it. Regarding the accommodation, it's located on a very quiet alley. There's a kitchen available and a pleasant terrace overlooking the small garden. The rooms are well-equipped and pleasant. We recommend a stay here for a wonderful human experience. Thanks to Gihan and Dinu

Boasting air-conditioned accommodation with a terrace, MONI FARM HOUSE WILPATTU is situated in Nochchiyagama. Guests can benefit from a balcony and an outdoor fireplace. The guest house also features free WiFi, free private parking and facilities for disabled guests. Staying here was an absolute delight! The photos truly don’t do justice to the beauty and comfort of the room – it far exceeded my expectations. The room was spacious, beautifully maintained, and had everything I needed for a relaxing stay. The owner and the entire team were incredibly warm, friendly, and went above and beyond to ensure my trip was unforgettable. They organized an amazing safari for me, making the experience completely hassle-free. The location is perfect, offering a serene and picturesque setting that feels like a true escape into nature. The Sri Lankan food served here was exceptional – fresh, flavorful, and authentic. This is an ideal place for anyone visiting Wilpattu National Park. Highly recommended for the location, hospitality, and overall experience!

Kadahatha Wawa Lake is 1.7 km from the guest house, while Habarana Lake is 2.2 km from the property. Sigiriya Airport is 11 km away, and the property offers a paid airport shuttle service. Nice and clean room with big and comfortable bed, terrace with a view on wonderful garden Cozy and quite place Amazing Sri Lankan breakfasts (and dinner - to be ordered extra if you wish) - delicious, diverse, homemade (homegrown fruits served) and very much filling Wonderful host - very helpful and always concerned about his guests. We get all needed tips how to get to places we wanted to visit on our own/by bus, but also get arranged tuk tuk when it was needed to save some time (very reliable and worth recommending driver) Nice location with bus stand to Kandy just in front of the hotel and close to the center (800m) where bus to Polonnaruwa/Anuradhapura can be caught

The guest house will provide guests with air-conditioned units with a desk, a kettle, a dishwasher, a toaster, a safety deposit box, a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with a shower. There is a seating and a dining area in all units. At the guest house, every unit is fitted with bed linen and towels. We had a great stay at Visu Villa. Ruwan is a great host who is very kind and helpful. He showed us nice places around Habarana and told us more about the way of live. The room is big and the bed is very comfortable. Also the pool is nice and refreshing. We can recommend the elephant safari. It was beautiful and they go when it is not so busy. The workers who did the safari with us even made an aftervideo. We totally recommend Visu Villa!

The units come with air conditioning, a flat-screen TV with cable channels, a fridge, a kettle, a bath, slippers and a desk. The private bathroom is equipped with a shower and free toiletries. At the guest house, all units are allergy-free and soundproof. We had a wonderful stay at Sweet Home Tourist Rest, Cooking Classes & Tours. The comfort level was top-notch — everything was clean, spacious, and thoughtfully arranged. We were pleasantly surprised to find that our room came with its own living room, making it feel like a full apartment rather than just a guest room. For a very reasonable price, we had a completely private space to ourselves, which we really appreciated. The location is also ideal — the area is peaceful and quiet, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. A special thanks to Nilukshan, who organized some truly extraordinary tours for us, including the Wilpattu safari, and visits to Anuradhapura and Mihintale. Each one was memorable and perfectly arranged, giving us deep insights into the history and beauty of the region. We also took part in a cooking class conducted by Malsha, which was another highlight of our stay. The class was hands-on, fun, and absolutely delicious — we learned a lot and enjoyed every moment. Highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area — it’s more than just accommodation, it’s an experience!

At the guest house, the units are equipped with bed linen and towels. Thank you so much for all the effort in arranging transport and to make me feel comfortable. I loved my stay very much. Especially the matrace was one of the best I ever slept in. The dinner was amazing every time I joined as well as the breakfast. Watching the birds in the garden during breakfast was another plus for me. I wish Ranji and his family the very best and lots of lovely future guests.

Situated within 12 km of Pidurangala Rock and 13 km of Sigiriya Rock in Habarana, Habarana Dulwan Guest House offers accommodation with seating area. This property offers access to a terrace, free private parking and free WiFi. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk and full-day security for guests. The owner is amazingly kind and took us on a journey to many places around Habarana. He charged normal and not a tourist price. I think we can now tell honest and business smile. His was the honest one.
