Beautiful place. Our favourite stay in Sri Lanka. Blown away by wonderful Sri Lankan hospitality again. Such good food. Pool was fantastic to swim in as well as option to swim in river. Very peaceful location, perfect for relaxing. Accessed by little boat ride across the river. Highly recommend. Only wish we could have stayed longer!

We recently stayed at The Elephant Park Hotel as a family — my wife, our 1.5-year-old son, and I — and the entire experience exceeded our expectations. From the warm welcome to the thoughtful service, everything was top-notch. Ravindu, the manager, was incredibly kind and ensured every part of our stay was comfortable, especially with our toddler. Andrew, who handled the sightseeing and activities, was knowledgeable and passionate. He organized an unforgettable series of experiences for us — including feeding, riding, and bathing with elephants in the river. It was a once-in-a-lifetime memory we’ll always treasure. The hotel’s setting is absolutely stunning. Our room, the infinity pool, and the in-house restaurant all overlooked the river — with elephants bathing and roaming freely right in front of us. Watching them from our balcony or while having a meal made each moment feel magical and deeply relaxing. The rooms were spacious, clean, and child-friendly. The food was delicious, and the restaurant staff were happy to adjust meals for our little one. If you’re looking for a peaceful, nature-connected, and family-friendly escape — this is the perfect place. We left feeling refreshed, grateful, and already thinking about our next visit. Highly recommended!

    Excellent place, spacious rooms, with a lot of vegetation. Anushka is very kind, as is his family. He is a very good guide, he knows a lot about his country and its tourist attractions. If you have any questions, I recommend that you ask anything, he will help you. It was an incredible day in their cottage and the typical Sri Lanka breakfast was amazing 🤩🤩 I will back , I’m sure 🫶🏻☺️

    Pinnawala basically has 4 main attractions therefore a maximum of 2 days is sufficient. The main attraction is the elephant orphanage. Related to that is the elephant bathing at the nearby river which is fascinating. Remember the ticket you purchase for the orphanage is required for the bathing so do both in the same day as the tickets technically only valid for the day (we did not know this so we went to the orphanage in the evening and went to see the bathing the next day.. however the kind ticket officers let us go). Then there is a mini zoo where animals roam in more space than usual. You can feed animals here which could be fascinating (for a small fee). Then there is a traditional village called Iparini Gama where you can experience live style of a traditional sri lankan village.

    Spectacular area to get up and close with elephants. Unique experience with elephants walking thru the village for their daily bathing. General accommodation facilities were good. Bars and eateries also of reasonable standard. We stayed at Grand Royal Pinnalanda and found this quite satisfactory in services and value.
