Best of Lanka booked this boutique accommodation for us to access activities in the region. It is eco focused and does not provide wifi - both positive elements. The rooms are huge and facilities superior, the staff were very attentive and all very helpful - the local walks with staff are excellent. The food was great. We loved the pool. All in all, a great place to stay!

Wow - what a place! Firstly the scenery was wonderful, and the staff warm and welcoming. Also very helpful with bird spotting and identifying - appreciated! The food was delicious, a nice variety of things in the menu, and the room was lovely and spacious too with an outdoor bathroom. We had some trouble with opening our safe, and the staff came and helped within 5 minutes. I did a complimentary night walk around the hotel, amazing! We saw so much and it was really interesting to see the forest at night. The real highlights were the jeep tour and boat tour, both led by Sam. He was amazing! Best guide of our holiday by far. Incredible at spotting animals, identifying them, and very helpful at getting us in good positions for photos. Also allowed us ample time for photos, thank you!

We spent a wonderful time at Gal Oya Lodge. Everything was very well organised and of high standard. Friendly staff, beautiful rooms and nice setting in a scenic environment. Highlight was our walking, jeep and boat safari with naturalist Lakshman. He was very friendly, knowledgeable and competent. It was a great pleasure to spending a full day with him in the National Park!

We absolutely loved our stay here, little lodges that have everything you need and a stunning view of monkey mountain which feels like it is in your back garden. The staff here are amazing, the naturalists are extremely knowledgable and will take you out on night walks around the property which I would highly recommend. In addition to the lodges and staff being amazing I have to say the food was exceptional.

Amazing place in remote and peaceful setting. The staff were all so friendly and the food was good. The trips with the naturalists were very informative and we left having seen a lot of birds. We love this place. As there is no wifi or a|c it is probably not for people for whom that matters more than being submerged in nature. We slept very well however and the fans kept us cool. The pool has a view which would be hard to beat. Lovely bar area.

Thank you very much to the Gal Oya Lodge team for making our trip memorable. We live in Colombo, and this was the first time we reached this part of the country. It was a great experience at the Lodge and the Gal Oya National Park. We did both the jeep safari and the boat safari. We saw only two elephants on the boat, but there were plenty of birds, water buffalo, and crocodiles. We went to the Nilgala section of the national park to see the Gal Oya River and again saw a lot of birds and five elephants. The food was excellent, and we did the jungle cooking course to experience the provincial meals. The room was spacious, and we loved the concept of an open bathroom. We would love to come back again for another memorable stay.

Absolutely loved this place. A really relaxing atmosphere and lovely staff. Nothing is too much trouble for them. We stayed in Bungalow 6 which great. Very spacious with great views. Most people come to do the boat safari but for us the highlight of our trip was a breakfast picnic at “new tank”. It was so beautiful, almost from a different word. One of our favourite places in Sri Lanka.
