Once a chieftain’s mansion, Ulagalla features a 150-year-old mansion at its centre, with 20 private, ecologically-built pool villas spread across 58 acres of lush greenery. With its own solar farm generating half of its own energy requirements, Ulagalla is truly a unique boutique hotel in Anuradhapura. Enjoy the ambiance of ancient kingdoms or nature-based adventures whilst immersed in luxurious, ecologically-sustainable beauty. The lush environment, stunning landscaping, and exquisite attention to comfort makes for an unforgettable experience amidst a green oasis. Ulagalla is also just a 30 mins drive away from Anuradhapura and an hour away from Sigiriya, the ancient rock kingdom also known as the Eighth Wonder of the World. It’s complex engineering, architectural feats and world-famous frescoes are just some of its defining features. If you’re looking to explore, you can head that way whilst sight-seeing in Anuradhapura, as its even closer in proximity from the city.
FACILITIES & SERVICES
Imagine a little ‘palace’ all to yourself. King sized beds, the softest linen, the fluffiest pillows, comfiest sofas, cool wooden floors; and space to breathe, space to stretch, to allow yourself to indulge in all the luxury within it.
We call them ‘Pool Villas’ – and you have 20 to choose from, but each is a sanctuary to hide yourself away from the cares of the world and be treated like royalty. Each one is a special place to take refuge in, be surrounded by beauty and feel at one with creation itself. Which view would you like to admire: A lush green paddy field, an enchanted forest, or the still expanse of a lake? Whichever you choose, you have a wide terrace and picture windows to feast your eyes from here at Ulagalla, definitely one of the most unique of all the hotels, in Anuradhapura and Cultural Triangle.
58 acres of sprawling grounds can be navigated by the bicycles provided, or you can call the front desk to book a battery powered golf buggy to drive you about. The landscaped gardens are heavy with flowering plants that warp around the Olympic sized pool which sparkles in the sun. Take a few steps and you will walk into the cool comforts of the luxury Ayureveda Spa, offering treatments combining all the healing herbs Sri Lanka is renowned for, and thus making Ulagalla one of the most special hotels in Anuradhapura, Sri Lanka.
