Wild Glamping Gal Oya, Sri Lanka

Surrounded by mountains in a rural area near the unspoiled Gal Oya National Park, Wild Glamping Gal Oya promises both an exceptional and unique stay. The resort itself is located in a remote village and operates in harmony with the local community as well as the environment. A visit to Gal Oya is a must when staying here - unlike most national parks, visitor numbers are significantly restricted, and it is also the only park that offers safaris by boat. This offers an incredible experience, and if you are really lucky you might even get to see the park’s resident elephants swimming! Wild Glamping also offers guests the opportunity to connect with the indigenous community and learn about their ancient traditions.

Sustainable accommodation & dining

Sustainability is the focus at Wild Glamping Gal Oya. The property was built using local materials wherever possible, and the villagers who helped construct the property now work in the resort and the 30-acre farm it encompasses. The glamping tents however offer all the comforts you would expect from a luxury stay, including air conditioning and an incredible open-air bathroom. Guests can also look forward to delicious cuisine that incorporates locally sources produce, including vegetables from the resort’s own organic farm. The Sri Lankan specialities are particularly excellent, but a range of international dishes are also on offer. 

Our opinion

I loved my stay at Wild Glamping Gal Oya. Even arriving is an experience - you are taken into the property itself on a traditional cart powered by an old farming machine, before being welcomed by the team from the hotel and elders from the local village. The tents themselves are so comfortable and set amidst really beautiful countryside. The only thing to note is there is no Wi-Fi on property, which is great if you just want to switch off and immerse yourself in your surroundings.
