Uga Chena Huts

Immersed within seven secluded acres of golden sand dunes, salt-crusted lagoons, and dry-zone forest bordering Yala National Park, Uga Chena Huts offers an extraordinarily private safari escape. Inspired by the traditional thatched shelters ('chenas') built by ancestral farmers watching over nocturnal crops, this luxury eco-lodge combines rustic bush soul with world-class five-star sophistication.

Private Pool Wilderness Cabins

With only 18 individual cabins spaced generously across the wilderness reserve, complete seclusion is guaranteed. Each 784-square-foot cabin features a climate-controlled interior with thatched roofs, rich eucalyptus timber finishes, freestanding copper bathtubs, dual vanities, and a private shaded timber sundeck with an integrated 5-meter plunge pool. Looking out over the scrub forest, guests frequently spot wild boar, elephants, and migratory water birds right from their terrace.

Bassin & Beachfront Gastronomy

The Basses restaurant overlooks both the wild ocean and a freshwater lake frequented by wading birds. Guests enjoy all-inclusive dining with bespoke a la carte menus, fine wines, and handcrafted cocktails. From candlelit dinners arranged directly upon the dunes under a canopy of stars to morning safari bush breakfasts inside the park, every culinary moment is unforgettable.

Twice-Daily Private Guided Game Drives

Included within every stay are twice-daily private game drives into Yala's premier wildlife blocks, led by dedicated naturalist rangers. Return from tracking leopards to soothe your muscles at the serene Uga Spa, featuring holistic treatments inspired by indigenous herbal lore and natural oils.
