We were informed by booking.com that the national park is just 2 min from property. But actually it is 40 min from the property. It is not excepatable..

Drink on arrival, we arrived too early but staff still accommodated us. Quiet place, slept well.. Great variety of food at breakfast, cereal, eggs, pastries and Sri Lankan curries if you wanted it. Clean swimming pool and sun beds.with a great view. I'd stay again.

“Great location for Yala safari and lovely aspect over Paddy field and infinity pool”
Fabulous hotel, lovely location overlooking a paddy field . The hotel rooms all overlook the infinity pool then onto the paddy field. There was a lot of bird activity to watch especially at sunset . Really comfortable room . The staff were very helpful . It was easy to get a packed breakfast for our early safari . A good location for Yala and a nice place to relax too. Would recommend

“Wonderful Hospitality with Thoughtful Touches and a Festive Atmosphere”
The hospitality at Kithala Resort was excellent, with all staff being welcoming, friendly, and attentive throughout our stay. Shortly after our arrival, we were invited on a complimentary bird-watching tour, which was a lovely and unexpected addition and a great way to experience the natural surroundings. The hotel was having New Year’s Eve celebrations and it was clear that the team put a lot of effort into creating an enjoyable and festive atmosphere. A special highlight was my partner being voted “Kithala Queen,” for which she was given a lovely gift basket and flowers, a thoughtful and memorable touch. We also appreciated the complimentary extras in the room, including a bottle of wine and a fruit plate. Another important plus for us was the availability of refillable filtered water, especially as many other places we stayed in Sri Lanka charged extra for drinking water.
