Deer Park Elephants, SRI LANKA
Airing Date: Apr 10th, 2006
The Deer Park Hotel opened in May 2004.
It has been renovated and refurbished to showcase the rich cultural traditions and heritage of Sri Lanka in keeping with Angsana's objective of providing travellers with a vivid experience in adventure and cultural tourism. Deer Park Hotel is made up of 77 units with a range of cottage types to choose from.
There are four award-winning themed restaurants, each oriented around a different aspect of the resort and the country. A picturesque three-tier waterfall swimming pool provides further fun and relaxation. The world-renowned Angsana Spa at Deer Park offers traditional therapies, including Ayurvedic treatments which rejuvenate the body, mind and soul after a day of soft adventure.
The Deer Park experience can be best described by the following four attributes: Tranquillity, Luxury, Adventure and Care. Minneriya National Park is small in size - covering 8,889 hectares - but has a high degree of diversity. These include exotic birds, leopards, the sloth bear, spotted deer, Indian pythons and of course the Sri-Lankan Elephant. This is where you can get up close and personal with some of the greats of the jungle.
