“Great Location for Safari, Average Dining Experience”
It was a great accommodation for a short stay while visiting Udawalawe National Park. The safari was excellent, and we saw many different animals — especially elephants.

“Unique and wonderful spot”
Wonderful bbq in the evening. Setting is beautiful right on the edge of the national park. All amenities that you need are there and it is a beautiful place to spend time. All the staff were lovely. We learnt so much from Mr Solomon on our safari and afternoon walk. Truly a special place.

“Brilliant experience, but hosting could do with some improvement”
Tents were absolutely fantastic, safaris were brilliant and the food was excellent each day! Really liked how we could get a takeaway breakfast on our early morning safari.

“Putting the glamour back into glamping with a capital G!”
Superb glamping tent set up. Very luxurious and comfortable. It was huge! With two separate bedrooms and a little seating area in the front, very well furnished and exceptionally clean. Staff were incredible and very helpful, right from the moment we arrived they couldn’t do enough to help us and were extremely polite and respectful. The meals were exceptional and seemed to be conjured up from nowhere! They were served under the stars for dinner around a beautiful fire, which was so special. Then there was the safari itself, it was so magical seeing herds of elephants and their babies. Our guide and driver were so motivated to ensure we had an excellent experience and stopped at nothing to ensure this happened.

“If you want to go on Safari - this is the one!”
This is a glamping tent - and what a tent! It even has a picture of an elephant on the canvas in the lounge. The tent is the scrubland, well away from other tents - all I could hear were the cicadas and wildlife. Fabulous. The staff even brought me a five course meal - all served on a white table cloth, adjacent to a camp fire, with Price Solomon for company - what he didn't know about wildlife isn't worth knowing.

“Hreat safari but too expensive for what it is”
The safari was excellent and we enjoyed breakfast and the animals and the elephants and birds, this was a great experience. Safari starts at 5.15am The food was ok not much choice.. drinks were extra.. the tents are not a close drink to the park, over 30mins and long way from car park, the whole event lacked any atmosphere

“The perfect choice for a safari in Udawalawe”
We booked the morning safari with half board package. Staying here was a great experience, and represented good value for money. The naturalist who joined us on our safari was truly fantastic, and added to our experience. The tent we had was really clean and big enough for a family of 4. Staff and food were great. Just note that the drive to safari is around 30 minutes in the jeep, but that wasn’t an issue at all as it all added to the experience.

“Great Experience”
Really cool experience, glamping in the jungle. The rooms are pretty above standard, considering it's just a tent. Great setting, fabulous service, and guide. Dinner bbq is a must, around the night camp fire, with all the shining bright stars above. Value for money, if you want to go Safari.
