“Peaceful and quiet”
Great location among the rice paddies and away from town, we were beside a little pond with turtles. Peaceful and a great muesli breakfast. They are also environmentally friendly and are trying to do the right thing socially too. Well done.

Outstanding stay. Honestly such an amazing experience staying in our own chalet overlooking the rice fields was one of the highlights of our whole time in Sri Lanka. We were also pleasantly surprised at the high quality and standard of the meals we ate while there. The rice and curry was the best we had eaten so far that trip. 10/10, the staff were all amazing.

“A true taste of Sri Lankan nature crossed with luxury living”
The location was idyllic and calm. The staff were super attentive and very welcoming. The onsite massage facility was also really good. Maybe even the best massage I’ve had in Sri Lanka so far. Honestly loved this stay so much!

“Lovely Rustic hotel in Yala”
We had such a unique and peaceful stay at Gaga Bees in Yala. The rustic charm of the chalet made it feel so cosy and authentic, and the views over the paddy fields were absolutely beautiful. It truly felt like being at one with nature — waking up to those views and the surrounding sounds was so calming. The whole experience was relaxing, simple, and exactly what we needed to switch off and unwind.
