Amazing place where the jungle opens out onto the beach. So quiet and secluded and in keeping with the surroundings. A special treat.

A Jewel in jungle is the truest sense to describe Chena Huts by Uga Escapes! Magnificently amazing. A must to at least once in a lifetime!

Incredible hotel, it is expensive but you do get what you pay for and much more! The huts are indulgent and luxurious but very well integrated in the surrounding nature.
The private terrace of the huts are visited often by lots of birds, monkeys and sometimes bigger animals! Guests are not allowed to walk around the resort unaccompanied when it is dark and swimming in the sea is not recommended as there are strong currents and some risk of being attacked by big animals.
The staff is very attentive and accomodating: even if they were fully booked, they managed to offer us a late check out to enjoy our hut until 2pm.
The (all inclusive) food was really good and based on a daily menu. No buffet.
The included safari trips are only in Yala block 1, which I had been told was overcrowded. During the first one we could’t see a leopard or a sloth bear (although we saw some elephants, lots of buffalos, wild boards and birds), so the ranger agreed to go on a “leopard themed” trip the day after, starting at 6.10am. We were lucky and managed to see a leopard moving from one tree to another, giving us lots of opportunities for nice photos of the whole animal. The “leopard spot” was indeed overcrowded and the jeeps were moving very slowly along a car line, to share visibility of the animal. While being in a queue takes a bit of the safari romanticism away, the ranger told us that the chance to see a leopard in block 1 is much higher than in the other blocks, so I would take that over not seeing cars or leopards.

Great hotel inside the park so see occasional wild animals. Rooms very nice and small private pool for each room perfect size to cool off then sit beside to relax. Staff very attentive and friendly. Food great. Highly recommend.

Chena Huts was a wonderful experience. The two game safari with the ranger gave us more insight to the wilderness and the species which otherwise wouldn't have been possible. Ranger Harithe's experience took us on a wilderness route which our land cruiser was the only one and with his trained pair of eyes we ere able to see species. Unfortunately, the number one and two parks were closed which are only fifteen minutes drive from the hotel. The park number five was more than an hour drive away. The two game drives with the ranger are included In the package, first one was at 2:30pm on the arrival day and the second was at 4:30am the next day. The two game drives were memorable, even though we were not lucky to spot the leapord.
We missed the afternoon game drive which had left at 2:30pm. We were not informed by Expedia ( we booked with) nor the hotel. But the hotel did arrange with the ranger. Check with the hotel the day before to be on time for the game drive. You may want check on the active parks. We were at Yala on October 17th after opening of the parks one and two but the closure was exptended to the end of October.
The hut was beautiful, especially the private pool which was very inviting for a dip after the game drive. The hut is located in the Yala wilderness with a breath taking view of the sea. The dining outdoor setup with the tranquility of the wilderness and the sound of the lapping of waves was great. Service was exceptional and we felt pampered from the time we arrived. We stayed one night.
We loved the unique wilderness experience and the Chena Hut. If you are looking for a unique and a memorable experience, the Chena Huts' is a must see! Book early as there are only fourteen Huts!!

The Huts are awesome. Absolutely amazing. Very friendly stuff, some remember your Name immediately after checking in. Food is good, variety of different dishes to choose. Bar area could be nicer, but this is a future project I heard.
