Taru Villas Villu - Wilpattu

Attentive staff, clean, quiet, comfortable.

Everything

the staff is extremely kind, service is impeccable. We had to stay an extra three days due to cyclone Ditwah and floods in the area. Taru is the best place to be in isolation, we felt safe, and were taken very good care of, even though staff was busy looking after the property and reaching out to their families and the local community.

all good

The staff cleanliness levels and facilities, and the incredible river view chalet

The nearest park gate is 1.5 hours away due to the park being partially closed so the park is very far

Stunning Hotel, beautiful design and kind staff. Highly recommend!

The property and staff were brilliant from start to finish. We arrived later than we had expected as our driver, who we booked separately from the hotel, took us the wrong way (it is worth clarifying the location as this entrance to the park is fairly new we were told but is very close to Backwaters and Wild Wadi accommodations too, which are on the same road) . When finally arrived, we were greeted with cold flannel towels, bags brought to our room and a tour of our beautiful room. Also a BBQ banquet of meat, fish and vegetables was delivered to our room when we arrived as we were so tired from a day of travel! All the food was incredibly delicious throughout. Bit shoutout to Jeewan who made our stay extra special and attended to our every need! We booked onto a Wilpattu safari via the hotel and did not regret! We have come out of season so our expectations were low but still managed to see a leopard and elephants - another big shoutout to Sandaal (not sure on spelling) who spoke fantastic English and was so knowledgeable about animal tracks, behaviour and different species.

Nothing not to like!

Absolutely incredible hotel - staff go so above and beyond to help and be hospitable. Accommodation is stunning and out of this world. Food is excellent and only 10 mins from Wilpattu park.

Nothing. Just wish we’d stayed longer!

Magnifique lieu havre de paix. De plus on entre par le côté le moins fréquenté pour le safari.
