A gem amongst the boutique hotels, it is nestled in a sprawling 58-acre lush green garden with a 150-year-old mansion at its centre, rich with cultural heritage and historical significance. Interposed within this natural habitat, there are 25 villas with private pools, cautiously designed and built to maintain the ecological balance of the surroundings.
If you cherish adventure tourism or value visiting majestic archaeological sites, Uga Ulagalla is the ideal resort in Sri Lanka to visit. This is after all the land where great Kings once reigned.

Spa & Wellness

Sustainability
Food miles are kept to a minimum thanks to produce from the hotel’s organic garden and local farmers and fishermen. In 2020, Ulagalla launched an Elephant Research Centre (ERC) to help resolve local issues with elephant-human conflict. Community projects have included the installation of a reverse osmosis water treatment facility in a local village. There’s a focus on energy efficiency, with LED light fittings, motion detectors and sensors. Uga Ulagalla is a Travelife certified property.
Rooms
You have a choice of 25 Pool Villas, each its own sanctuary. The calm and serene beauty of Anuradhapura surrounds your holiday home. The views from within are breath-taking – you have a choice of awe-inspiring views of lush green paddy fields, the neighbouring jungle which teems with life, or a tranquil lake with its inviting waters.
