Jungle Beach an Uga Experience - Trincomalee

Jungle Beach an Uga Experience - Trincomalee

10/10 Excellent
"If you’re looking for a truly secluded escape, Jungle Beach delivers. Far from the more developed parts of or Uppavelli, it’s wonderfully private — just you, the jungle, and one of the most pristine beaches I’ve ever set foot on. The sand is very soft, the sunsets paint the sky in gorgeous paddle pop colours, and the early morning walks are magical and peaceful. Breakfasts were a highlight with the most wonderful fresh juice (try the wood apple & passion fruit!) and a full menu to order from. Evenings on the beach with fresh seafood were equally special, and the staff were genuinely warm throughout. They also helped us arrange a bike rental to explore the beach area in Uppuveli, which was a great way to see a bit more of the region. Wildlife encounters were unforgettable: langur monkeys swinging through the trees off our balcony of the garden room, Sri Lankan squirrels with the cutest pink noses coming right up to us, and even a crocodile spotted on the grounds. A few heads ups: it’s a very family-friendly hotel with lots of kids, so the pool fills up fast, however the beach loungers are the place to be. Midst wear flip flops died to the beach as the sand gets seriously hot in summer. Feedback: The beach bar plays the same playlist on repeat which would have been nice if it played more varied music. A perfect blend of beach and jungle — highly recommend!"
