The ‘Wild Glamping Gal Oya’, tented luxury chalets join the Theme Resorts portfolio even amidst the Covid 19 pandemic. Situated in a 30-acre working agricultural farm in the Galoya Valley at Rathugala, the property consists of 10 spacious tents, a restaurant and an infinity pool.

Built on sustainable tourism development concept, the project features new normal tourism trends such as Agri Tourism, Wild Life Tourism, Ethnic tourism and Eco-Cultural tourism. Through each of these the property has focused on the triple bottom line of People, Planet and profits.

Wild Glamping Galoya is nestled in a rural, under privileged area home to Sri Lanka’s indigenous vadda community. The property’s various green and sustainable initiatives include Good practice organic agriculture with drip irrigation systems in-house Composting and traditional farming practices

Direct Current generation by the usage of individual solar panels for chalets and public areas, as the location is not within the supply of national grid.

Recycling of gray water generated from the property and reusing it for Water closet flushing, Eco friendly designs being used to maximise the use of natural light and ventilation are some of the sustainable aspects of the project.

Use of earth bricks, clay, illuk grass, cajan and other materials outsourced from the locality for building construction. Promotion of the indigenous culture of the Rathugala and Danigala aadivasi community help the resort to gain its international exposure.

The luxury tented chalets were declared open by Eric Lavertu, the Ambassador Of France to Sri Lanka and Maldives on the 20th December 2021 at a simple ceremony.
