We stayed two nights at Athgira River Camp. The glamping tents are really nice - big size with comfortable beds (and extra protection of mosquito nets), and the private but outdoor (to the sky) bathroom is very cool 😎. There are two nice outdoor pools to use. The hotel also has a safari service and this is a magical experience. Our safari driver was a great guide, very knowledgeable. The hotel manager Saman is excellent, running a busy operation with individual attention to every guest. Highly recommend!!

We had a brilliant time. The staff were very helpful and attentive. The accommodation was amazing and on a beautiful setting next to the river. Plus, the Safari was definitely a highlight of our hole trip. Thank you.

A very nice place with friendly people. There was a woman who gave us a small tour and I appreciated that. The tent was comfortable. There were only ants in the bathroom. We could swim in 2 different swimming pools. The biggest one was great! The buffet was also excellent.

What a fantastic place! Athgira River Camp is truly a gem. The staff is exceptionally kind and incredibly hospitable – no one could go the extra mile like they did. A big round of applause for them! The surroundings are beautiful, and the beds in the lovely tents are super comfortable. The bathroom is huge and gives you the feeling of showering outdoors, which is such a great touch. Both the breakfast and dinner buffets were well taken care of. The swimming pools were refreshingly cool and spotlessly clean. The only thing we missed was a small fridge and coffee/tea facilities in the room. Other than that – a wonderful stay!

Wat een heerlijke plek om te overnachten. We hadden er graag nog een extra nachtje verbleven, maar waren niet al te lang in Sr Lanka dus dat paste niet in het programma. Voor t avondeten nog even een plons in de 2 zwembaden. Buffet was lkkr. De tenten waren luxe met uitzicht op de prachtige natuur en apen. Geen apen bij de tent gehad gelukkig. En ‘s ochtends douche je met uitzicht op de lucht met palmbomen. Mooier wordt het niet 👌🏻

Le concept est sympa même si nous ne sommes pas adeptes… mais franchement, top. Le personnel, le responsable, la nourriture et le cadre… et pas une seule piqûre de moustique. Nous ne sommes restés qu’une nuit mais on aurait peut du en prendre 2 ou 3
