Ulagalla

Ulagalla is set on 53 acres of lush grounds in Anuradhapura, the heart of Sri Lanka’s Cultural Triangle.

The eco villas all have private plunge pools and terraces, and the floor-to-ceiling windows enjoy panoramic views of the lush paddy fields, the dense forests or the expansive lake. For larger groups, we recommend indulging in the Nikawewa Villa: a two-bedroom haven amidst the rice paddies, with a private pool, an expansive sun deck and a 24-hour butler to tend to your every need.

Ulagalla offers a truly bespoke dining experience. The main restaurant serves local and western-inspired dishes, but what you eat, when you eat and where you eat it, is totally up to you - even if that means getting it delivered to the tranquillity of the secret spa.

Hidden amongst the foliage, the spa is designed to resemble an underground cavern; with a range of treatments, it’s an idyllic setting to relax to the sound of the trickling waterfalls.

Ulagalla is perfectly located to explore Anuradhapura. Widely acknowledged as the first capital of Sri Lanka, it houses some of the country’s best preserved ruins – not to mention its own status as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Back at Ulagalla, you can explore 58 acres of natural beauty on foot, bicycle or even horseback, with Ulagalla’s equine residents - take the resident naturalist with you as an expert guide.
