“Good location, lovely views and the staff were great.”
Staff were lovely, and lovely views from the balcony. We also joined the tour the resort offers free of charge, and it was such a nice touch - totally worth it.

“Just excellent - thank you Russell”
Stunning property with beautiful views. You can tell it’s new - it’s really well equipped and nice and clean. Russell and his colleagues really looked after us - surprising my husband with a birthday cake, driving us into town for dinner and organising breakfast for us at short notice. I cannot express my gratitude enough and we would definitely come back to stay here.

“Special connection between guesthouse and nature created by the host.”
Carefully prepared breakfast, in the open air, protected from insects (something quite rare in Asia). Very special place located in the rice field.

“Amazing”
I recently had the pleasure of staying at the Oragan Resort Tissamahara Hotel, and it was an experience that exceeded all expectations. From the impeccable service to the delectable food and the thrilling Yala Safari, every aspect of my stay was nothing short of fantastic. The moment I arrived at the resort, I was greeted with warm smiles and a genuine eagerness to make my stay memorable. The staff's dedication to excellent service was evident throughout my visit. They were attentive, accommodating, and went above and beyond to ensure that every guest felt pampered. The culinary offerings at the Oragan Resort Tissamahara were a true delight. The chefs showcased their culinary expertise with a diverse menu that featured both local and international flavors. Each dish was a masterpiece, and I found myself eagerly anticipating each meal. The dining experience was enhanced by the beautiful ambiance of the restaurant, making it a perfect setting for a relaxing evening. The highlight of my stay was undoubtedly the Yala Safari arranged by the hotel. The adventure through the Yala National Park was nothing short of spectacular. The knowledgeable guide provided fascinating insights into the flora and fauna, and I was fortunate enough to witness the majesty of elephants and the elusive beauty of a leopard in its natural habitat. The safari was a thrilling and educational experience that added an extra layer of excitement to my stay. In conclusion, the Oragan Resort Tissamahara Hotel is a gem that offers a perfect blend of luxury, hospitality, and adventure. Whether you're seeking a tranquil retreat or an exhilarating wildlife encounter, this resort has it all. I highly recommend this destination to anyone looking for a memorable and enriching getaway. My gratitude to the entire staff for making my stay truly exceptional.

“Amazing place above the ricefields”
Everything during our stay in Oragan was literally perfect.To start with..the people, Russell and his brother were so kind in every moment,always smiling and ready to help in anything we might have needed.Their suggestions on what to do around and how to do it were always the right ones,specialltly for the safari in Yala nation park ,highly recommend to organose it with Russel if you plan to do it.Furthermore you MUST meet also Russel's uncle,Denzel, and you will understand the reason,an incredible person.As far for the room itself, the best room we stayed in Sri Lanka,the room is as beautiful as it looks in the fotos.Modern ,new, very very clean and it faces the ricefields that give you an incredible beautiful view from your balcony or directly from your bed as the windows are huuuge. HIGHLY RECOMMEND ORAGAN RESORT.

“Unforgettable”
Imagine waking up to the emerald waves of a rice field swaying gently outside your window. The morning mist hangs low, cloaking the distant mountains in a veil of mystery. This isn't your typical hotel room; it's a portal to a different world, one where nature's symphony replaces the city's honking chorus. Step inside your spacious haven, and a wave of cool air washes over you. The air conditioning is a godsend in the tropical heat, while the hot shower promises to melt away any travel weariness. But the real luxury lies in the vastness of the space. Spread out your belongings, claim your corner for catching up on emails with the excellent Wi-Fi, or charge all your devices with the abundance of power points. This is your home away from home, and it's ready to pamper you in every way. But the magic extends beyond the four walls of your room. The warmth of the staff here rivals the sunshine. They're like family, anticipating your needs before you even voice them. Whether it's arranging a hassle-free safari or providing all the local tips you crave, they're there to make your experience unforgettable. Speaking of safaris, forget the impersonal tour groups and overpriced packages. Here, the hosts themselves take you on an adventure you'll never forget. Imagine bumping along in a jeep, the thrill of the unknown coursing through your veins as you search for elusive leopards basking in the golden sun. But it's not just about the big cats. Every rustle in the leaves, every flutter of wings, becomes a mini-discovery, thanks to the passion and knowledge your hosts pour into the experience. And yes, even a one-night stay leaves you feeling like you've known this place forever. The farewell is tinged with a touch of sadness, but also with the promise of returning. Because this isn't just an accommodation; it's an escape, a chance to reconnect with nature and with the simple joys of genuine hospitality.

It was beautifully located in between the rice fields—a perfect little stay! The rooms are comfortable and clean, and the owner is the kindest and cutest person ever! At night, they arrange a night elephant-watching tour by jeep, which was the nicest experience I've ever had. The Yala Safari Tour was amazing. Our driver was quick to spot all kinds of wildlife, both big and small. We were able to see 10+ elephants, including a few babies, a crocodile, water buffaloes, eagles, storks, kingfishers, bee-eater birds, and even a leopard. Our driver's eagle eye even spotted some elusive geckos and chameleons sunning themselves on bush branches as we drove by. Even when I had a delicate matter that needed attention, they showed compassion. It's highly recommended for a stay in Thissamharama.
