Wild Tusker
About
Wild Tusker, on Sri Lanka, is a hotel in Kirinda, a coastal village in the island's south. First-time visitors should expect a quiet setting away from the main resort towns, with Galle, Mirissa, Unawatuna and Arugam Bay among the better-known stops elsewhere on the coast. Colombo, Kandy, Negombo and Bentota sit further afield.
A 4.3 out of 5 average from 73 reviews reflects a favourable reception from guests. Reaching Kirinda from the main resorts is easiest by road, and the journey from Galle or Mirissa takes in the southern coastline. The southwest and west coasts are driest from December to March, while the east coast is best from May to September, so the timing of a visit matters.
Buses serve most routes in Sri Lanka, three-wheelers are common for short trips, and traffic drives on the left. Full-moon Poya days are public holidays across the island and can affect opening times and travel plans.
Kirinda's position near the southern edge of the island puts it within reach of wildlife areas and coastal scenery. Guests based at Wild Tusker can use the village as a base for exploring the south, with the route east towards Arugam Bay and west towards Galle both viable by road.
