Hotels near Pallebedda

Large room (missing light bulbs) and good bathroom. A/C worked, but no TV as advertised.

Great character and atmosphere. Balcony was a super place to relax and look out at the forest. Breakfast and evening meals good. The owner was especially sociable and helpful. We took an early morning safari organised by the owner and our safari driver was very experienced and pleasant, with an amazing eye for the most well camouflaged chameleon.

I booked CBS Resort at the last minute because of my tight schedule. I wasn't expecting much, but I was so surprised when I arrived at the property -- the whole area was huge and well-kept, the facilities were above par, and the ambience was serene. In the middle of the property is a man-made bird sanctuary, where thousands of trees were deliberately planted that various species of birds just decided to stay in the area. The sounds of the birds add to the amazing one-with-nature vibe of the place. The room I stayed in was extraordinarily spacious - I had a king size bed, sofa, closet, and larger than usual bathroom. The beddings and the towels were all clean and fresh. It also has an efficient AC, a ceiling fan, and a large TV. Aside from being very clean, the room also has a high ceiling, which reinforces the airy-ness and easy feeling a guest would have in the room. I couldn't ask for more. The best part of CBS Resort is its people. When I told the manager that my only agenda in Udawalawe was the safari but that I was having a problem because I was running out of cash since most establishments in the area don't accept credit cards, he helped arrange a safari tour for me at a discounted price! And when I told him that I only have dollars in cash, he contacted the owner of the resort, who then came to the resort all the way from his home several kilometers away, just so he could change my dollars to rupee at the current rate published on the internet! The next day, the staff prepared my breakfast to-go so I could enjoy it at the safari. The safari jeep I got was quite new and very comfortable. The guide I got was a cousin of the owner of the resort. He was very knowledgeable of the animals and the different areas of the National Park, and had very sharp eyes that he could spot animals from a mile away. Thanks to him, I was able to see a lot of animals up close, especially elephants! Upon returning to CBS Resort, my Sri Lankan lunch was ready.

food was really good

Perfect for a safari trip, room is modern and nice. They also helped us arrange the safari through them. Breakfast is good

The pool is the best part of this hotel, it's super clean and large. The rooms are basic but clean and comfortable. The manager helped us to order a take away as we arrived too late to order dinner. Very close to the entrance to the park.
