Delicious Dining Experiences

The food at Uga Ulagalla is simply mouth-watering. The blend of Sri Lankan and international cuisine is impressive, and the presentation of each dish is fantastic. I particularly enjoyed a special 'surf & turf' BBQ dinner set by the lake, complete with a cozy bonfire. It was an lovely culinary experience!

My stay at Ulagalla was absolutely unforgettable! The resort provided everything we needed for a perfect family getaway, from a stunning villa nestled in the jungle to a plethora of activities for everyone to enjoy. The private plunge pool was a highlight, and watching wildlife from our balcony was truly magical. However, I did notice that some of the dining options could be a bit pricey, especially the Sri Lanka banquet. Overall, it was an amazing experience that I would highly recommend!
