Avontuurlijk verblijf met zeer vriendelijk personeel.

Slapen in een boomhut is sowieso speciaal en avontuurlijk. We werden zeer goed ontvangen en hebben heerlijk gegeten.

Er was een diertje dat ons de hele nacht heeft vergezeld 😉, wat maakte dat we niet zo goed geslapen hebben. Maar dat hoort bij het slapen in een boomhut. Onze zoon had een andere boomhut en hij heeft heel goed geslapen.

Der Gastgeber war sehr zuvorkommend und freundlich. Die Lage, die Natur ist unglaublich toll! Das nächste Mal möchten wir länger dort bleiben und das Baumhaus genießen 🫶🏻

Perfect location after a few days in busy Ella. This place is off the main tourist area and really feels like being in the jungle. There are two lakes nearby that are amazing for watching birds, monkeys, water buffalo, and even elephants. The accommodation is great. you can truly hear the wildlife right outside your door, which makes the stay very special. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful. After booking, they emailed us about the trips they offer, so we went canoeing on the lake and also did a safari. We left at 5:30 am, they packed breakfast for us, and our guide was fantastic—very patient and determined to help us spot as many animals as possible. We saw so much wildlife thanks to him. I would absolutely stay here again.

Staying at La Pantera Eco-Friendly Resort was an unforgettable experience, offering a perfect blend of nature, comfort, and thoughtful hospitality. I had the unique opportunity to stay in one of their eco clay houses, which was not only beautifully designed but also gave a true sense of connection to nature. The peaceful atmosphere was enhanced by the sounds and sights of the surrounding wildlife—waking up to the calls of peacocks and birds created such a serene and refreshing start to each day. At night, the resort transforms into a tranquil haven, with soft natural sounds and a clear, starlit sky completing the experience. One of the standout features of La Pantera was the food, which was not just delicious but made with real heart. Each meal felt like it was prepared with care, using local flavors and ingredients, and served with a personal touch that made all the difference. The staff, too, deserve special mention—they were exceptionally warm, helpful, and attentive throughout the stay, making us feel completely at home. Their friendly nature added an extra layer of comfort and hospitality to the entire experience. What truly made the stay remarkable were the unique activities organized by the resort. The full-day safari at Udawalawa was nothing short of magical, and the breakfast served right in the middle of the forest was a moment to remember. We also had the chance to go on a peaceful canoe ride across the nearby lake, which offered stunning views and a deep sense of calm. These well-curated activities allowed us to deeply engage with the natural surroundings, making the stay not just relaxing but also enriching. I highly recommend La Pantera Eco-Friendly Resort to anyone looking for a meaningful escape into nature with comfort, adventure, and warm hospitality.
