This was my 3rd stay at the Elephant Reach, over a span of around 10 years, and it has always been consistently great. The staff are so friendly, and the hotel is very comfortable. Location is optimal 👍🏽

The breakfast was not included, which is very rare in Sri Lanka. The food was very nice and served in desired locations like terrace or pool. The pool was very big and warm. There was some construction work going on in the property.

This is an ideal glamping location inside the jungle. Very sustainable property with so much potential. Unfortunately, they have not received good support from the government. The views are amazing. It’s an authentic wildlife experience. Therefore, we should respect the wildlife. Their efforts in providing maximum comfort with lovely treehouses and tents should be really appropriated. Staff are very friendly. Safaris are amazing. Dining experiences are over the moon. We had really wonderful time.

The property was an excellent getaway into the wilds. We wanted to do two national parks and the wild culture was an amazing place to stay and the provided the booking for both yala and udawalawe national parks. Was so nice of them to prep ice box and some snacks for the national parks. The service there is high standards. Also expect good signal there. Upul we called him (Mr. Tuna) was the best service guy at the stay, funny and gave us good advices and so friendly. The breakfast was supper even the dinner try the beef kuttu.

This is an incredible place to stay, especially if you want to support nature and the local environment.
Our late afternoon walks with our host and guide Nishanthe were a highlight of our trip - we learned so much. He is fearless and a wealth of information. But the whole staff goes out of their way to make sure you feel safe and comfortable. We loved the nightly ritual of smoking our room (it smelled so good) for bugs before putting the mosquito netting down.
Dinners were excellent too. We loved our stay. Perfect for kids too.
