A Tented Safari Lodge by Yala

Where the jungle meets the Indian Ocean by Yala National Park in Sri Lanka, Wild Coast Tented Lodge is a Relais & Chateaux safari camp of cocoon-style tents, with game drives, a spa and a free-form pool.

Expedition chic on a wild shore

Wild Coast Tented Lodge sits on a rugged, secluded beach where dense jungle meets the Indian Ocean, beside Yala National Park in southern Sri Lanka, part of the Resplendent Ceylon collection and a member of Relais & Chateaux. Accommodation is in striking cocoon-shaped tents, from cocoon suites to pool suites and family pool suites, with vaulted canvas-and-glass facades, copper bathtubs and an expedition-chic style, gathered around a woven, dome-shaped main building. Dining centres on the Ten Tuskers bar and restaurant, with Sri Lankan cuisine from local ingredients, plus wilderness dining and beach sundowners. There is a large free-form infinity pool, the Sanctuary Spa and a library. The draw is the wildlife: game drives in Yala in search of leopards, elephants and bears, with guided nature walks, birding at Bundala and a junior chef programme for children. It suits couples and families who want a safari and a wild beach in one, rather than a conventional hotel.

A note on experience

This suits you if you want a safari and a wild beach in one. Head out on game drives in Yala in search of leopards, elephants and bears, take a guided walk or go birding at Bundala, then return to your cocoon tent, the infinity pool and the Sanctuary Spa. There is a junior chef programme for children. It is remote and adventurous, so it is best for couples and families who want wildlife and the wild coast over a conventional hotel.
