Fantastic stay! My husband and I have been glamping in Africa before, so we knew what to expect when we booked a glamping hotel in the Yala National Park buffer zone. We had read reviews from others beforehand and despite what some others said, we booked Leopard Nest anyway. We are so glad we did!
The actual room itself (treehouse room) was the same quality as what we spent $700 a night on glamping in Africa. It was clean, had a strong AC, and an updated toilet/shower. They provided a mosquito net for us, but in general, we did not see any bugs (even if we did, this would have been totally normal as it is glamping in the wild)
Our room also had a big balcony that overlooked a watering hole that elephants are sometimes spotted at, which was cool.
The best part was the food - we were served a prefix 4 course dinner under the stars, outside in our own private “rock table”. It was so cute and we weren’t expecting this, so it was such a special touch! Breakfast was also a prefix, multi course meal that had us full and happy.
The staff was so helpful and eager to assist us.
We were happy with our one night stay here. They are advertised as a glamping hotel, and as long as you have the correct expectations going into it, you will be satisfied. It is good for a night, I would probably not book more than that just because there aren’t too many things to do once you are there, besides go on safari. But overall, fantastic!
