I had an amazing stay at this hotel and truly enjoyed every moment. The room was beautiful, very clean, and I had a private pool which was absolutely stunning and well maintained. The view was breathtaking and made the experience even more special. What really stood out to me were the details. The hotel really makes you feel the full vibe—even the water bottles had a tiger design, which was such a unique and stylish touch that reflects the whole theme of the place. The food was delicious, and the chef did a fantastic job. The staff were all friendly, helpful, and welcoming—especially the front desk team who were very professional and kind. A special thanks to SAYURI at the reception—she was incredibly kind, friendly, and very helpful throughout our stay. I also booked a safari trip through the hotel, and it was such a great and memorable experience. One of the most special moments was during dinner when they surprised my sister with a birthday cake, which was such a thoughtful and lovely gesture. During check-in, I had an issue with my card, but they handled it very kindly and allowed me to go to the room and settle in, and pay later once the issue was resolved. I really appreciated their understanding. Housekeeping was excellent, and the spa was beautiful and relaxing. Overall, it was a perfect stay and I highly recommend this hotel. I would definitely come back again.

Stay here to experience a mini safari before your safari! This place is amazing! It is in the national park 'buffer zone' and is teeming with life. There was a wild elephant at the end of the driveway the first night we stayed! From the deck we saw peacocks, squirrels, bats, land monitor, different birds as well as the friendly cows that come to the house in the evening for safety from the leopards. Hansa and Sa are fantastic hosts, cook unbelieveable food and the place is well set up and very clean. The beach is metres away and you can get fantastic sunset photos. It is close to the national park, which means it is a distance from shops, we knew beforehand, it doesn't matter as you can have all your delicious meals there. Hansa even got some very fresh buffalo curd with special treacle delivered for us to try.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Exceptional Stay – Unmatched Hospitality! I have never felt so well taken care of as I did at Wild Coast Lodge. From the moment we arrived, the staff went above and beyond to make our stay unforgettable. Every team member remembered my food allergies across all three meals, ensuring I could dine worry-free. Their attention to detail and genuine care made all the difference. Beyond that, they even provided fresh aloe vera for our sunburns a small but incredibly thoughtful gesture that speaks volumes about their level of service. The entire experience was luxurious, personalized, and truly exceptional. If you’re looking for a place that combines stunning nature with five-star hospitality, this is it!

We loved everything about the Uga Chena Huts. The location is amazing with an elephant, monkeys and a range of other animals being seen around the property. The food was the best we have had - wonderful chef who changes the menu daily. The staff were exceptional, from our safari guide to the wait staff and room staff. They made our stay!

This was one of the nicest places we stayed at in Sri Lanka! The hotel was absolutely beautiful but what made this place special was the people. We were welcomed and treated like family. We checked in a little late just due to exploring Sri Lanka and the GM even told us not to worry about check out time the next day- take our time, enjoy the pool and relax. The hotel only has 3 rooms so the staff is very attentive and take such great care of you. The meals provided by the chef were also delicious and very well prepared. Wonderful place - would highly recommend!

The hotel is located in a wonderful spot, facing a clean and beautiful beachfront. The location is definitely one of its strongest points. The swimming pool also looked new and well maintained, even though we didn’t get a chance to use it. Although the food menu was quite limited, the dishes we had were delicious and well presented.

The pool is huge and fantastic for families and the dining experience was very positive too. The bar menu is accessible, the buffet very wide ranging with multiple cuisine types, and the Sri Lankan restaurant good quality. The private beach looks good but was closed to us. We also used the gym which had a couple of running machines and climbing, bikes etc.

Perfect location and amazing villas I can’t believe they are not booked up the whole time. The staff go above and beyond and took us on a tour to a local fisherman village where we ended up seeing so many animals, took us on sunset walks to the local beach and on the last night we had a torch lit dinner it was absolutely perfect. The villa itself was so clean and spacious and the food was some of the best we have had in Sri Lanka. Couldn’t recommend more.

Have never seen alive trees inside room. Had feeling that I live in camping but with all modern appliances and city comfort. Very friendly and helpful stuff and manager, who made our stay more comfortable than we expected! Recommend to get complimentary round trip first to see places around. Take a walk to sand dunes on sunset, visit Kirinda beach and town and ask to rent Yala safari from hotel only!

The location is great. Having seen the Hilton, Laya is right on the beach with immediate access from all rooms. Perfect to see the sun rise and set. The rooms are fairly spacious. The bed is soft and marginally comfortable.

The location is incredible, it’s right on the ocean with an infinity pool overlooking the beach. The bedrooms are huge and very comfortable. We saw a wild elephant at the hotel. The staff were very attentive and offered to make a bonfire on the beach (there was a storm so we couldn’t). The pool was warm and lovely.
