Splendid Lake View Safari Lodge Udawalawe

Review by hotel critic

During my recent visit to Splendid, I was impressed with the balance of luxury and value offered at this charming lakeside hotel. Nestled amidst serene surroundings, it's an ideal spot for a tranquil retreat while still providing access to thrilling experiences like the Jeep safari to Udawalawe National Park. My room had air conditioning and a comfortable shower, catering perfectly to my needs. The added bonus of a private balcony meant I could enjoy morning coffee while soaking up the views. We dined at the lakeside restaurant where the meals were freshly prepared, enhancing the overall experience. What really stood out was the attentive service from our hosts. They arranged our safari directly, ensuring a personal touch that larger resorts often overlook. With fantastic access to the local wildlife while keeping costs in check, this place proved to be sensible for those looking to combine relaxation with adventure. For anyone seeking a restorative getaway without breaking the bank, Splendid delivers a promising experience.
