Cloud Nine Wilpattu by Aaradhya

What a lovely place! The location is fantastic for getting to Wilpattu; there are two entrances into the park and the south entrance is a bit easier to get in. The hotel itself was lovely (lovely pool, the crow's nest is fun, food was great) and management stood out as responsive. Would absolutely stay again.

We stayed at Cloud Nine Wilpattu by Aaradhya as a couple during the last stop of our honeymoon, and it was the perfect way to end our journey before flying home. Nestled in the heart of nature and surrounded by the stunning beauty of Sri Lanka, this boutique hotel is truly a hidden gem. The atmosphere is peaceful and unique—just what you would hope for in a boutique experience. The location is ideal for visiting Wilpattu National Park, and we used the opportunity to go on two unforgettable safaris. Our room was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, especially considering the remote location. What really stood out to us was the hotel’s strong commitment to sustainability and supporting the local community. Not only is the food locally sourced and delicious, but the hotel also employs local staff, offering opportunities to individuals who might not otherwise have access to jobs in the hospitality sector. While English is spoken by the staff, for more detailed inquiries, the hotel manager is always available. He runs the hotel with great dedication, warmth, and professionalism, making guests feel truly welcome and well cared for. One highlight was the hotel's viewing platform, where we could take in the breathtaking natural surroundings. All in all, this was a truly special experience—peaceful, authentic, and memorable. Highly recommended for nature lovers and those looking for something beyond the ordinary.

We had our annual staff trip to Wilpaththu and Cloud 9 was our stay for 3 days. Amazing service by the staff who accomodated our requests to the fullest.

This is a beautiful place surrounded by nature, very peaceful and quiet but with all the comforts you need for a great stay. We loved the pool and the beautiful rooms, and enjoyed exploring the surrounding area - including Wilpattu national park, a lagoon/mangrove trip, and walking along the lagoon at sunset. The staff were lovely and very attentive and helpful, and made our stay very enjoyable. Our kids loved spotting all the wildlife around the resort - monkeys, frogs, birds and butterflies. Great wifi in the room (a bonus!) and a lovely open air restaurant Food was very tasty and they kindly made a special dinner for us of amazing sri lankan curries as we are vegetarian 😋 A lovely stay that we really enjoyed, thank you!
