Staff were wonderful and accommodating - went out of their way to make our experience memorable. The staff were really helpful in organising our safaris, including arranging a great guide! The property is beautiful and clean with a great pool and outdoor area overlooking the plains! We ate breakfast and dinners at the property and the food was excellent!

The meals were very good; especially the dinner buffet. Excellent cappuccino with Roshan's imported coffee machine. The safari was well organised and the driver made an effort to find the animals. Roshan gave us a free upgrade which was a nice added touch. He also got us a taxi for our onward journey.

We stayed here for 4 nights and we loved the family atmosphere! The hosts Avi and Sabina are sooooooo nice. We felt very comfortable and welcomed from the first second! Also their three dogs and one cat are super cute! Avi and Sabina helped us out in every situation, they were always at the property to support us and they cook sooo yummy breakfast/dinner! Wow, props to you! It’s also vegan friendly which we loved :) One night Avi put a beamer on and we could watch a movie outside with the other guests, which was pretty cool. The bungalow is sweet decorated , there is an AC, fan, big and comfortable bed and big bathroom. A room to relax and feel comfortable. The own terrace was cool to hang out, read a book or have breakfast. We got a wonderful Christmas Dinner, all self made by our hosts and their staff. The staff is also super friendly and helpful! It’s located close to the beach. There is also many restaurants and shops nearby. All in all we can definitely recommend staying here as long as possible :) thank you 🙏🏽🥰

We had a wonderful stay at the Ceylon Resort. Roshan and his family gave us a warm welcome and did everything in their power to make our stay rememberable. We highly recommend to do the full day safari which was perfectly organised by the hotel. The tour guide (Nici) was the sweetest person and made the safari even better. The hotel is very clean and the food (breakfast and dinner) is fabulous. 10/10

Johanna and Roby are wonderful hosts and always there for you. It’s so easy to connect with others, whether out kitesurfing or enjoying dinner together.

Perfect stay at the Karanukarala Ayurveda resort, especially the Ayurveda treatment was wonderful. In the beginning, the crew told me it was fully booked, but in the end, they managed to schedule it for me. The room was big, and really clean and the beds were very comfortable. I enjoyed my stay there, especially to relax (recommend the yoga and meditation classes).

I did a solo trip to Wilpattu and stayed in one of the tents, and I absolutely loved the experience. The tent was very spacious, comfortable, and had everything I needed for a relaxing stay. The team arranged my safari, which made everything so easy, and I was able to order a delicious dinner as well as a packed breakfast to take with me on the early morning safari. Their hospitality was excellent throughout my stay. Overall, it was a wonderful experience, and I would happily recommend it to anyone visiting Wilpattu. A perfect place to relax, enjoy nature, and experience the wildlife.

The Manager of the hotel and his staff (including 3 dogs and a cat) are above any praise. If you seek for a well organized place to rest without problems do come to Puetz Travels Beach Resort. Mr. Marcus will make your trip a real holyday. Even wild crocodiles that live in the nearby river dream to move to the magic canals of Puetz Travels Beach Resort. I wish i were among the lucky ones.

Largest NP in SL.

Largest NP in SL. Think with the highest density of leopards in South Asia. But due to the roads inside the NP getting damaged due to a strong cyclone in Nov25, access to some parts of the park is restricted. But still its an interesting place to visit

Kalpitiya is an enchanting destination.

Kalpitiya is an enchanting destination. It's the only place in Sri Lanka where you can take kitesurfing lessons and safely practice kitesurfing with expert assistance from seasoned local kitesufers. Although it's generally considered an arid landscape, even in August, one of the driest months in Sri Lanka, it was largely green and without sweltering heat. Probably, the strong wind causes the heat to dissipate. There's a long stretch of fairly clean beach to explore. Many hotels to stay in and many restaurants to dine at. If you take the train from the Colombo fort railway station like me, you can get down at Palaviya station and walk about 100 metres to reach the road leading from Palaviya to Kalpitiya and take a bus from there and then get down at either Kurinjipitiya or Kalpitiya depending on where you plan to visit and/or stay in. Apart from Kitesurfing, you can go sightseeing, see dolphins, bask in the sunshine, take boat tours, cycle and more in Kalpitiya.

You need a car or a Tuk Tuk to take you anywhere as it is away from any shops ect The hotel was very helpful and arranged a Tuk Tuk to take us to the market and religious site. Be mindful regarding the beaches as they are not fit to swim in due to the plastic rubbish and pollution in the water. We went for a walk on the beach but came back after a few hundred metres as it was too depressing to go any further due to the plastic rubbish all over the beach and the millions of microplastic balls that we thought were stones and then realised what it was. Very disturbing

Kalpitiya is a very beautiful destination. A place to stay for a few days. There are many places for you to enjoy and visit. But be careful when you find a place to stop. Be more careful with low-cost places. Dinuda Villas is a very beautiful place. Babzy and the team are doing very well.
