Staying at The Lodge

Lodge bungalows spread across a private 20 acre jungle all within a short walk of our gorgeous pool with bar, restaurant and other beautiful spots to relax and enjoy the wild scene

The design of our Eco-lodge stems from our founding philosophy of wanting to blend with nature and give you a close experience of this beautiful and remote part of Sri Lanka.

All the structures we’ve created are designed to meld within the jungle and are built from materials - illuk, granite stone, teak and mara wood - all found close by.

Whilst wanting a natural feel we haven’t compromised on comfort. We’re sure you’ll relax peacefully in our Lodge Bungalows and our bar and pool in the sometime shade of Monkey Mountain is the supreme post-safari spot for idle reflection.

Lodge Bungalows & Villa

Each Lodge Bungalow is generous in size at 800 square feet with separate sitting areas, large indoor/outdoor bathrooms and private verandahs.

Our Lodge Villa combines two Bungalows with a shared sitting area and is perfect for families or small groups.

We’ve kept the design as open as possible to show off the wild and gorgeous landscape that wraps around us.

Poolside and a little away from the restaurant you’ll find little Ambalamas and sunset drinks spots to sneak away to when you feel the need.
