Host review score
Nestled on the shores of Yoda Lake, Wild Lotus Villa is a two acre oasis of laid back tranquility and a paradise for nature lovers. Our place is an ideal base to explore Yala, Udawalawe and Bundala National parks. We don't book by the room, so you will either have the entire villa to yourself, the entire bungalow to yourself, or both the villa and the bungalow together. Please don't hesitate to get in touch if you have any questions.
We are a Sri Lankan/American couple who share a passion for Sri Lanka and wildlife. We bought our little piece of paradise on Yoda Lake in 2013 because of it's natural beauty and close proximity to national parks in the area. We built the bungalow on the property as our private home and then the villa and pool to accommodate our growing family and to host visitors who love wild Sri Lanka as much as we do. We don't live on site but we have a team of people who will take excellent care of you and we are always just a phone call away.
