    Staff were fantastic. Food was very good. Very well organised. Tents were very comfortable. Couldn’t have asked for more from them.
  • Jort

    It’s a beautiful place, comfortable tent and friendly people. The diner and fire place was a great experience in the middle of the nature. Tip: in this park (Wilpattu) it’s better to do the safari in the morning instead of the afternoon.
