Fringing Yala National Park amid the rolling sand dunes and gnarled trees that grow up to ocean’s edge are Uga Escape’s Chena Huts. So named for the modest accommodations once built in the farmed clearings of the jungle, these huts however offer more than just protection from hungry roaming elephants. Private glass-walled pavilions, the Chena Huts bedecked in Safari-chic furnishings made with natural materials lead out to shaded private decks with plunge pools. The communal pool – behind an enchanting waterfall entrance – plus a spa, restaurant and walk-in-any-direction wilderness complete the safari-camp picture.
