Luxury Holidays to Elephant Corridor

Elephant Corridor

The Elephant Corridor Hotel which opened in March 2003 established a new concept in luxury accommodation for Sri Lanka and represented a move away from traditional hotel design towards the boutique style property. Constructed in sympathy with its wonderful jungle surroundings and eventually blending in with the local habitat a peaceful tranquil place has been created where guests of the Elephant Corridor Hotel feel special and service is recognised as being of paramount importance. The property is built on the banks of Sri Lanka's Pothana Lake an ancient tank within a large private reserve of virgin jungle with scintillating views of the surrounding Sri Lankan Kandalama Hills as a backdrop and the magnificent Sigiriya Rock Fortress standing majestic in the distance. It is in this environment that the indigenous elephant flourishes and the location of each of the suites are such that they take full advantage of the prime setting on the shores of a favourite watering hole where these huge beasts regularly take their fill from the waters of the lake. This private, 'residents only', all suite property has pioneered the concept of freedom dining, where each guest not only has the option of dining where they wish – be it in their suite, under a tree or under the stars, but more importantly when they wish. An extensive a la carte menu is available 24 hours a day every day. This luxury accommodation will suit those guests who demand a high standard of accommodation in complete privacy, complemented by discrete service by attentive staff - there are no alternative restaurants in the locality to visit in the evenings.
