“Special Sri Lanka stay!”
From the moment we arrived, Theekhana looked after us, making sure our stay was special. He also arranged for our Dawn Safari, followed by an enjoyable traditional Sri Lankan dish on our return. The residence was very quiet and we were fortunate to have the whole property to ourselves. The rooms and bathroom are also very large and comfortable. Superb hospitality and would thoroughly recommend

We stayed here for four nights with our baby. Everybody made sure we had a wonderful stay here! They were so sincerely friendly, were amazing with our baby, and for mothers day they even provided a special breakfast. The pool was well maintained, and food was great as well. Be aware though, breakfast portions can be absolutely huge!

We stayed at Shangri Lanka for one night and really enjoyed it. With only three villas, we had the whole place to ourselves, which made it feel very peaceful and special. The pool was huge and warm, and the room was very clean, spacious, and great value! Mr. Theekshana was a wonderful host, and also helped organize a safari for us in Yala Park, which was a great experience. Highly recommend for a quiet and relaxing stay close to Yala Park!

Absolutely fantastic place to stay and the staff Theekshona and Indika are so helpful and nothing too much trouble. The setting is idyllic and puctures don't justify the place. Rooms are huge and spotlessly clean and pool area is amazing. Food is fantastic and worth staying in to eat.

“1 of my favourite stays in Sri Lanka, I would 100% recommend for anybody visiting Yala”
Beautiful property, clean, comfortable big bed, fridge, beautiful and unique outdoor bathroom with modern bath, big mirror and outdoor shower. Breakfast was lovely and staff were great especially Indika who was so friendly, welcoming and helpful during our stay. I wish we could have stayed longer and would definitely recommend anybody visiting Yala to stay here.

Beautiful and quiet. The pool is great, staff amazing. Very luxurious feel. Much privacy. Breakfast is nice, but average. Location is excellent, you can walk to the road through town. There a supermarkets close by. If you would like to relax, I highly recommend Laama Spa Tissa. Very professional. For dinner, I would highly recommend Chef Lady. You can walk there or take a tuk tuk. Tuktuks are right at the road when you turn left from the hotel
