Nature Resort - Yala Safari Village

Nice host, quiet location, clean room, air con, hot water (though the pressure is quite low). The host made a delicious vegetarian dinner for 900 lkr.

I can’t fully recommend the safari with this hotel though. The driver/guide was super nice and punctual, stopped to show us various animals on the way. But it was uncomfortable to ride his jeep in the front seat in the rain. The roof was leaking and all cold water poured on my feet. The driver tried to fix the problem, but to no avail. I sat the entire safari with wet and cold feet. I had a raincoat, but it didn’t help as the water poured right on my feet. Unfortunately, there were no other seats available in other rows as the car had 4 other stranger people sitting in middle and back rows who also booked the safari (the car is a 6-seater Bolero, 3 rows of seats). So I think the safari with this hotel is good on a sunny day, but if it’s raining - be ready to seat with wet and cold feet for the entire safari.

A very beautiful small house, also very close to the city area.

Lacks cleanliness Power cut the following morning

The host was very attentive and made sure we were happy throughout our stay. He also helped us arrange a safari to Yala which we both really enjoyed and gave us some good advice about the local buses. The setting was lovely from the garden to the rice fields opposite. We were both very happy with the room and the bathroom was spacious. Another positive was the short walk to the local restaurants.

Awesome property and owner. The person was so nice. He saved the day and we slept through our alarm in the morning, and gently knocked on our door to make sure we were not missing out on the safari. He even gave us bus tips to get to Ella in the evening. And we had a lovely chat with him in the afternoon on his veranda while staying cool from the sun. He’s a great guy and very caring for his guests. Very highly recommend this place!

Absolutely a wonderful stay. We booked very last minute but just called to him and he made sure we had everything we needed for our trip to yala. We called the day before and he set up everything with the safari and made sure we had a room. He also made sure we had take away breakfast to eat on our way! Also the room was very nice and perfect for us with ac and nice bathroom!

Sehr freundliche und zuvor kommende Gastwirte Immer wieder gerne Ist zu empfehlen

Worst place I have stayed ever! I will not recommend this place to anyone. Arrogance of the staff is something irritated us the most. We stayed in 5 hotels during our vacation in Sri Lanka and all were good in terms of hospitality and facility. But this one was different. They don’t value their customers. All our hotel bookings done through agoda and all went well except this. They didn’t even helped us with our luggages and when we requested to help to take one of our bags to the room in the first floor, the staff ridiculed us. Arrogant people. Avoid it!
