This was my fourth visit to this incredible destination, albeit a brief one with colleagues en route to the deep south. Nick and his team at Buckingham Place truly go above and beyond to ensure a flawless stay. Every guest receives exceptional treatment, with personalized care and a commitment to exceeding expectations. Nestled amidst stunning surroundings, the hotel's 16 spacious suites offer panoramic views of the lagoon. From the balcony or terrace, guests can enjoy the sight of birds of prey soaring above, monkeys in their natural habitat, and majestic peacocks strutting gracefully. The spectacular, empty beach provides a unique and refreshing vibe. The hotel is fully equipped with a spa, a stunning restaurant, an ocean-facing infinity pool, another garden pool, a bar, a lounge, and many more amenities. Buckingham Place is peacefully secluded, forming part of a tranquil community near two renowned game reserves, Yala and Udawalawe National Parks, both just a two-hour drive away. Yet, the captivating wildlife often visits right at your doorstep—monkeys, peacocks, mongooses, squirrels, lizards, and a myriad of bird species. Nick and his exceptional team, including Kalpa, Arshad, and all others in the kitchen, garden, and housekeeping departments, deserve special recognition. Until next time, our heartfelt thanks for creating such unforgettable experiences. This is a true gem and not to be missed.
