Chalets in Puttalam

"Tatum Villas Villa is a beautiful new lodge, 5-stars for a reason. The staff are all lovely and extremely eager to please; rooms spacious, gorgeous, and private; and food very good. My only quibble was that rains had flooded the road into the nearby entrance of the Wilpattu park, so doing a safari drive involves a 1.5 hr ride to the eastern park entrance, which kind of defeats the purpose of staying on the quieter western edge. Still a beautiful place to stay, though."

"Beautiful location, quiet, sandy beach, large gardens and sea to swim in!All within walking distance. Take a tuk tuk to the local “high street”and choose your own fish for dinner cooked by a superb chef! Chill on the veranda watching the array of beautiful birds and knock down a coconut to mix your own cocktail! Sleep soundly under the mosquito nets and awake to the fabulous dawn chorus of the local birds and a flat Indian Ocean on your doorstep. Be pampered by your hosts who will arrange massages, trips and just welcome and make you feel at ease during your stay "

"We had a fabulous stay at Wild Wadi. All of the staff made us feel very welcome and special. They were great to chat to, very friendly and answered all of our questions. We were served delicious Sri Lankan food for dinner and breakfast. The grounds are breathtaking and full of wildlife. The room was delightful with a very nice private plunge pool. The hotel is in a very convenient location - very close to the Wilpattu national park entrance. Thank you for having us, we had an unforgettable experience."

"Pleasant simple SriLankan accommodation. Family friendly and welcoming. Pancakes for breakfast were tasty. Room was simple and clean. Bathroom and toilet were basic. Reflecting price range this was good value for money. Very rural. Local fishing area with boats being pulled up on beach in front of accommodation "

"HR Solo traveller I visited the Sanctuary on the recommendation of a friend and thoroughly enjoyed my brief stay there. Great care and much thought has been given to the furnishings of the house. It has an extensive collection of books on wildlife and birds and I could have spent many hours browsing this collection. The food was delicious and I was looked after very well by Dula and his team. There is a good choice of excursions on offer, but I chose a half day tour to the Wilpattu National Park which is only about 30 minutes drive from the Sanctuary. Dula and his wife, Achini were my guides and they took a great deal of trouble to ensure that I had a memorable experience. We were fortunate to see leopard, elephants, sea eagles and much more. I will definitely return on my next visit to Sri Lanka. "
