Very enjoyable to step away from the bustle of normal life.
The location is amazing - it is quiet and great for seeing wildlife in its natural habitat. We saw an array of birds, monkeys, lizards, termites, insects, bats and frogs. You are surrounded by nature and the team at Wild Haven were really helpful and friendly. There is a beautiful river and a lily pond lake - all great places to relax and listen to the sounds of nature. The food was very good and always freshly cooked. The team worked around my son’s egg and nut allergy.
There is no wifi so the credit card machine was not working and we had to pay in cash (which required a trip to Dambulla). The remoteness of the location is a bonus, but there needs to be more information about how to arrive (they have a jeep on site or you can try a tuk-tuk). Our cottage was nicely hidden but quiet dark for most of the day. It would have been nice to have seating at the front of our house - we spent a lot of time in the communal area instead. The cottage we stayed in needs a bit of attention overall. We had holes in our mosquito net and some of the sheets etc. could do with being replaced.

A must if you come to Sri Lanka
We had an amazing stay at Wild haven. My friend actually liked it so much that he actually extended his time by 3 nights as well. The staff is super friendly and very helpful and attentive. My friend who is from Switzerland actually loved the kitchen the most. He enjoyed watching authentic food being made and sometimes was a part of the process as well. If you are looking for the truly Lankan authentic experience this is the place to be. We loved the tree house that we stayed as well. Everything was so neat and the nature walks and excursions were a nice touch to the experience. The nature walk actually opened our eyes a lot as well to the flora and fauna we see and hear everyday. All in all it was a wonderful experience

Perfect place for nature lovers
A beautiful gem hidden in the bush. Surrounded by nature, lot of beautiful birds around, and a perfect place to disconnect and enjoy the moment. The staff were very friendly, and didn’t complain when asked to bring morning teas to our huts.
Nothing I didn’t like, but could do with little maintenance.

Amazing location deep in the jungle, very friendly and accommodating staff. Surprisingly better food comparing to majority of the restaurants around.

Amazing stay and the best service we had in all of Sri Lanka
The entire stay was great! The manager started communicating with us on Whatsapp since before our arrival, fetched us in town & made various arrangements to help us get some cold beers and other things from town. The food was probably the best we had all trip - made on site and with so much pride. It's not fancy or glamorous but the service was epic, we had good sleeping arrangements with mosquito nets and everyone went out of their way to make the stay enjoyable!
The road to the property isn't the best, but there was nothing negative we could point to!
