There are 61 chalets with animal-inspired interior décor, all set within the 10-acre wilderness stretching from a lagoon to the border of Palatupana-Kirinda beach, which boasts some of Sri Lanka's finest unspoiled sand dunes. There are 6 types of chalets including Fishermen's, Beach, Round, Stilt, Traditional Village Chalets and the specialty Julian Suite. The 8 beach chalets, built on stilts, have the advantage of a balcony and a great position near the sand dunes but they are made of wood and therefore hotter than the other chalets, meaning the individually regulated air conditioning units are essential. Some love them, some prefer the cooler chalets. All chalets are fitted with air conditioning and have a private veranda, satellite TV, minibar, direct dial telephone, tea and coffee making facilities and a radio. The en suite bathrooms have showers and a hairdryer. (*) Some service might be payable in establishment.

The large swimming pool is at its most pleasant in mid-afternoon when many residents are on safari and guests have it to themselves. There is also a poolside snack bar and facilities for playing pool or snooker. (*) Some service might be payable in establishment.
