We were warmly welcomed by the host, the rooms are spacious and very clean, the meals are good and plentiful. Our daughter fell ill during the stay, and you did everything to take care of her, you called a taxi in the night to take us directly to the nearest hospital. A big thank you for everything.

Warm welcome in Yala with good food and nice company

The owner is a nice couple that does everything to make your stay perfect. Sriyani prepares the breakfast for you to take with you for the safari. The lunch was lovely prepared when we returned from the safari. The Rooms are very big and clean. On request, the safari is really good organized by the couples son. He is very experienced in the safari tours and has a lot of knowledge.

Great place close to Yala

Great location, the rooms are clean and comfortable. The swimming pool is great when coming back from a safari. The safari which was actually organised by elephant arcade was excellent, comfortable cars and very good packed breakfast and lunch. The restaurant is really good as well. Amazing staff! I totally recommend this place!

Worth the stay for Safari (Leopard spotting)

The room is quite spacious. It's the biggest room we've stayed in the whole Sri Lanka trip. The staff were very friendly. They helped us to prepare the other morning's breakfast package for the Safari tour. We left for the Safari at 5:30a, our breakfast had been there ready. It's at the end of a small village road, and there's a pond in front of the hotel. It's quiet.

Do yourself a favour and stay elsewhere!

There were 4 friendly dogs on the property and we adored them. The lake in front of the property was beautiful. We chose this property because it was in a remote area and far from town.
