Gal Oya Lodge

Gal Oya Lodge

10/10 Excellent
"The property was beautiful and we felt cared about as staff very attentive. Our room was truly incredible, so fancy and even our own little pool. We also used the big communal pool which was great to relax by. The activities they offer was great. We did night walk, boat safari, jeep safari, hike monkey mountain which was strenuous but fun and great views, and very blessed to do a walk with a Vedda elder and learn from him."
