“Exceptional stay with amazing staff, delicious food, and unforgettable leopard safari!”
Our stay at Leopard Nest was absolutely exceptional! The accommodation is stunning — beautifully designed, spotlessly clean, and such a unique experience being nestled up in the trees. It really felt like something special and different. The staff were second to none — truly some of the kindest and most attentive people we’ve met. They went above and beyond to make us feel comfortable and welcome, and nothing was ever too much trouble. The food was incredible — delicious, fresh, and so generous — we looked forward to every meal. A real highlight was the safari experience arranged through Leopard Nest. We were lucky enough to see a leopard and elephants up close, which was just unforgettable and made the trip even more magical. We honestly cannot fault this property. From start to finish, it was an amazing experience, and we will absolutely be staying here again. Highly recommend it to anyone looking for a once-in-a-lifetime stay!

“A different experience to live the nature and to visit Yala National Park”
The location in the middle of the natural park. Staff is very friendly and they do hard efforts to offer and give you what you need. The adventure to arrive to the hotel with a jeep is quite funny.

This was our most expensive stay of the trip. We didn’t realize we weren’t in a tree top room. The room was quite dark and the bathroom felt substandard and only had cold showers. I think the room we were staying in needs a lot of work done to justify $360 a night. The dinner was lovely and the staff were fantastic!

“Amazing life experience we will never forget, thank you ❤️❤️”
We loved everything about our stay. The treehouse was something we will never forget, you’re literally 1/2 an hour into the jungle, the staff simply couldn’t do enough and the food was top notch and in abundance. Our dinner cooked on bbq in a survivor setting was next level amazing. We highly recommend anyone to stay for the full 5 star jungle experience. One thing that’s not stated it there’s a plunge pool!

Our stay at Leopard Nest Yala was nothing short of extraordinary. From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warm hospitality and a seamless check-in experience. The luxurious tents provided the perfect balance of comfort and nature, featuring spacious interiors, elegant decor, and all the modern amenities we needed. The guided safari was an absolute highlight—exploring Yala National Park in a 4x4 Toyota Hilux with expert guides gave us incredible wildlife sightings, including elephants and the elusive leopard. The staff's knowledge and passion for conservation made the experience even more enriching. Dining at Leopard Nest was another unforgettable aspect. Every meal was thoughtfully prepared with fresh, locally inspired flavors, served in the heart of nature. It truly felt like a once-in-a-lifetime experience. If you’re looking for an adventure that combines luxury with the thrill of the wild, Leopard Nest Yala is the perfect choice. Highly recommended!

“Great authentic jungle glamping experience with candlelit bbq dinner”
Great authentic jungle experience, the candlelit bbq dinner was a highlight. They catered very well for me as a vegetarian, providing an amazing platter of freshly grilled veggies. Lasan and his team were excellent hosts and made sure we felt comfortable. They also arranged a great safari for us.

The stuff was really amazing, we had a candle light dinner in the jungle which was really amazing. The experience of a wooden tree house was also something you do once in a lifetime.
