Rooms

The resort has four different room categories, all of which combine a traditional rustic style with modern amenities such as individually-controlled air conditioning, satellite TVs, minibars, hair dryers and electronic safes. The en suite bathrooms are modern, with large baths, and each dwelling has its own balcony on which you can dine, sunbathe and look out for wildlife.

The split-level Paddy/Marsh Dwellings are on stilts set among the paddy fields or marshland, with some boasting private plunge pools. The stilted Water Dwellings are also split-level and have been constructed over the lake for wonderful views, while the Forest Dwellings are duplex and have their own plunge pools. There are also a handful of Garden Dwellings, which are on one level surrounded by trees and nature, making them perfect for wildlife enthusiasts.

Surrounded by deserted paddy fields, Vil Uyana is located only a few minutes from the impressive Sigiriya Rock, and just a short drive from the UNESCO World Heritage Site of Dambulla Caves, as well as Sri Lanka’s second former capital, Polonnaruwa.
