Wild Coast Tented Lodge
Sri Lanka's coast meets the tented safari camp: cocoon tents between a beach and the wild Yala National Park.
Yala & the South-East Coast · Sri Lanka
A sense of the place
Why it's in the collection
Because its appeal is as simple as the sum of its parts: the extraordinary Sri Lankan coast and the luxury-tent safari camp of southern Africa, put together on the south-east coast between a gorgeous beach and the utterly wild Yala National Park, with tents by contemporary architects that feel retro-futuristic right down to the copper basins and bathtubs, a spa and a stunning infinity pool.
- Between the beach and the Yala National Park gate at Palatupana; independent house.
- Cocoon tents with copper baths; game drives into Yala for its elephants, leopards and monkeys; the spa; the infinity pool; the dining program; all-inclusive.
- Two MICHELIN Keys in the 2025 selection; holds four-star standing.
The neighborhood
Yala & the South-East Coast
The dry south-east, home to Yala National Park and its leopards, elephants and birds. It takes in the beaches of Palatupana and Kirinda, the rock temple of Sithulpawwa and the road west to Tangalle's bays.
- The beach and the park boundary, at the tents.
- Yala's Palatupana gate, minutes; Kirinda's beach and temple, twenty.
- Colombo airport, four to five hours by road.
