Guest Reviews

• David (10/5): Great place to base yourself for Yala Safari - Staff were very attentive, the room was spacious and comfortable, pool area was great to relax at after safari.
• Mohammad Abdul (10/5): - Impressive stay and good facility.
• Erwin (9/5): Lovely staff, great place to chill and relax and close to the national park - Extremely friendly staff, great vibe, perfect breakfast and dinners. Very calm and nice garden
• Mert Furkan (1/5): The location itself was peaceful and surrounded by nature, but unfortunately our experience did not match the very high -
• Christiane (9/5): - Sehr schöne Anlage, abends konnte man Flughunde beobachten. Man bekommt ein leckeres Lunchpaket mit auf die Safari. Essen sehr lecker und Personal sehr freundlich. Die Baustelle am Pool war per Sichtschutz abgetrennt, hat nur wenig beeinträchtigt.
• Laura (10/5): - Herausragend herzliches und nettes Personal! Für den Geburtstag meines Partners wurde extra ein Geburtstagskuchen und Deko organisiert. Leckeres Essen und schön gepflegte Anlage. Im Erdgeschoss einige Ameisen unterwegs, aber das Problem gibt es in SriLanka während der Monsunzeit häufig. Die bereits häufig genannte Baustelle ist noch in Gang, hat uns aber tatsächlich auch nicht wirklich gestört.
• Muriel (8/5): Vriendelijke accommodatie met fantastische safari! - Fijn locatie met echt fantastisch eten. Het personeel is heel vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Ook kunnen ze een safari naar Yala voor je regelen. Wij hadden een goede chauffeur/ gids en hebben een prachtige safari gedaan! Echt een aanrader! Kamers zijn prima, niet uitgesproken maar wel goed. Tijdens ons verblijf werd er verbouwd. Er worden aan de andere kant van het zwembad appartementen bijgebouwd. Daardoor was er een groot zeil gespannen en was er wel wat geluid vanaf de bouw. Dit wisten we niet. Het geluid was niet heel storend en zeker niet de hele dag aanwezig. Maar tijdens het relaxen aan het zwembad is het wel een beetje jammer. Ons is verteld dat de bouw is afgerond voordat het hoogseizoen in oktober-november weer begint. Misschien goed voor anderen om te weten.
• Melissa (10/5): Best Hotel - Everything was perfect. Not to far from Yala National park staff were all so friendly and helpful especially Dinu. Food from restaurant was Amazing. Rooms were spacious and comfortable. Highly recommend Nothing
• Tim (10/5): A truly beautiful spot to relax and soak up the incredible area surrounding the hotel. - The space, the room, the view - all of it.
• martiene (10/5): - Super vriendelijk personeel, Luxe kamer. helemaal nieuw! Lekker zwembad. en eten kon hier ook helemaal prima. WE kregen ' morgens een ontbijt mee. Helemaal top! we hebben echt genoten!!!!! Meestel zeiden wij slaap hard ,maar hier konden we slaap zacht zeggen vanwege de zalige bedden Tegenover onze kamers werden nieuwe appartementen gebouwd. Had je geen hinder van en het wordt prachtig!!!! allen het zicht was dan wat anders.
• Guillaume (10/5): -
• Matt (10/5): Beautiful rooms, amazing staff and a great pool for use after a day on Safari. - Super friendly staff, amazing hotel with a beautiful pool Nothing at all.
• Veronika (10/5): -
• Vanaja (10/5): -
• Tanja (8/5): Perfekt für Zwischenstopp am Yala Nationalpark - Schöne große Zimmer, nah gelegen am Yala Nationalpark. Schöner Garten mit Pool. Es werden gerade weitere Häuser gebaut dann könnte es am Pool etwas eng werden. Stört wahrscheinlich nicht da die meisten nur für wenige Tage bleiben. Leckeres Essen und sehr freundliches Personal. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt
• A2383cn (9/5): Great comfortable stay for 2 nights. Staff attentive and friendly. Location for Yala Safari ideal. - Returned for 2nd year running so that says something itself. Staff remembered us straight away, and it was because of the staff that we returned. Rooms comfortable, breakfast and evening meal lovely...the special burger was delicious. Staff even helped us celebrate our friends 50th birthday, providing a cake which we shared with them.Pool clean and inviting Nothing to complain about
• Julie (7/5): - - Goed en lekker ontbijt - Goed werkende airco en ijskast - Vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel - Zwembad aanwezig (was wel warm water) - Propere en ruime kamers - Safari gedaan via hotel, alles was goed geregeld - 2 nachten geslapen en 2 dagen geen warm water gehad. Hadden dit dag 1 gemeld en kregen dag nadien andere kamer. Maar ook bij deze kamer merkte we in de avond dat het water niet warm was. Terug bericht gestuurd maar geen reactie gekregen. Dit was het enige slechte aan dit verblijf.
• Michael (10/5): Incredible stay. Thank you, Sihina. - We were very fortunate to be looked after by the great Sihina- his service was first-class. Everyone made our stay very comfortable. We hope to return another time.
• Timon (10/5): -
• Nelli (10/5): -
• Jessica (10/5): Highly recommend! - Gorgeous room. Lovely pool. Food was gorgeous! Attentive and friendly staff who were so accommodation and helpful. Booked our safari tour via Coconut Garden which was brilliant. Really enjoyed our time here. I can't think of a single thing that we didn't like!
• Negrini (9/5): Tutto davvero magnifico: camere ampie, curate e perfettamente pulite. Anche gli spazi comuni sono ben mantenuti e accogl - Tutto davvero magnifico: camere ampie, curate e perfettamente pulite. Anche gli spazi comuni sono ben mantenuti e accoglienti. Il ristorante merita una menzione speciale: propone una cucina locale davvero eccellente, consiglio assolutamente di fermarsi a cena almeno una sera in hotel. Il safari organizzato dalla struttura è stato un’esperienza splendida, ben gestita e indimenticabile. Ottima anche la colazione, sia in hotel che durante il safari: varia, abbondante e di qualità. Nulla
• Odilia (9/5): Chouette - On a aimé la grande chambre. Et aussi la belle piscine. C'était très propre. Rien à dire.
• Helmut (9/5): - Sehr aufmerksames und freundliche Mitarbeiter Ein zweites Handtuch, wie international üblich, wäre wünschenswert.
• Asora (10/5): -
• Anna (8/5): - Very spacious room, very friendly staff and an excellent breakfast. Hotel arranged our safari which we would recommend. Also our onward travel. Pool was very warm and lots of mosquitos but that's no-ones fault!
• Sabine (8/5): Sehr schöne Hotelanlage, wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt. - Sehr schöne Anlage mit Häusern für die Gäste im großen Garten. Die Zimmer waren groß, sehr sauber und gut klimatisiert. Der Pool ist sehr schön angelegt und von Palmen umringt. Wir haben im Restaurant sehr gut zu Abend gegessen - wir haben den fangfrischen Fisch des Tages bestellt, der sehr gut zubereitet war. Am Morgen gab es für den frühen Start zur Safari für jeden ein praktisches Breakfast Package. Alle Mitarbeiter des Hotels waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Wir haben uns besonders gefreut, dass wir nach der Rückkehr von unserer Safari noch in Ruhe duschen, packen und dadurch etwas später auschecken durften, das war toll. Während wir dort waren, wurden gerade an drei weiteren Gästehäuser gebaut, so dass man vom Pool und auch unserer Terrasse auf die Baustelle blickte, und tagsüber die Baustellengeräusche hörte. Zur Lage: Vom Hotel fährt man noch ca 40 Minuten bis zum Eingang in den Yala Nationalpark.
• Emily (8/5): Peaceful hotel in Tissamahamara - Lovely hotel in Tissamahamara, perfect for relaxing before or after a Yala National Safari trip! The staff were kind enough to pack us lovely breakfast for 5.00am (!!) to take with us on safari. They have a lovely pool area with lots of sun beds, and each room has a veranda/porch to relax on or watch the sunset. The restaurant is very good, we had a waitress who took excellent care of us, and our driver (taking us to Ella the next day) came to introduce himself during dinner. I would recommend the Sri Lankan specials on the menu! It is a little expensive compared to other places in Sri Lanka, but still a wonderful hotel.
• Laura (10/5): Super plek, echt een aanrader! - Wat een heerlijke plek. We hebben de safari's via Coconut garden geregeld en daar waren we erg blij mee. Ze leveren goede gidsen/chauffeurs. We hadden de mazzel dat we meteen in de ochtend een luipaard zagen die een stekelvarken aanviel en na de lunchpauze gewoon een lippenbeer!! Het eten is heerlijk. Wij hadden 4 dagen all inclusive en daar hebben we geen spijt van gehad. Elke dag een andere kaart om uit te kiezen. Ze verzorgen het eten als je een hele dag op safari bent. Dinushi bij de bediening heeft ons hart gestolen. Ze doet haar werk goed en is altijd in voor ene praatje. Het zwembad is fijn, de ligbedden incl badlakens zijn aanwezig. Er worden op dit moment 8 verblijven bijgebouwd (geen last van gehad), Coconut garden doet het goed en dat verbaasd ons niks.
• Kerstin (10/5): Sehr schöne Unterkunft am Yala NP - Toller Unterkunft, wir hatten auch viel Spass im Pool und haben sehr schön gegessen und geschlafen. Sehr nettes Personal, viele Frauen. Netterweise konnten wir mit Zustellbett auch mit 5 Personen (3 Kindern) übernachten. Nach unserer Safari durften wir sogar noch im Zimmer duschen, obwohl wir dann abgereist sind. Mit etwas mehr Zeit wären wir gerne länger geblieben.
• John (8/5): Lovely accommodation with great staff - The rooms were spacious and clean . Pool area was lovely and the staff were friendly and so polite Shower was cold (attempted on 3 separate occasions) and unfortunate timing by us and can’t be helped but hotel is extending so lots of building work happening near to the pool area !!.
• Paola (8/5): - We had a great stay ! We stayed only one night and were very happy to enjoy the pool, dinner and drinks under a lit up garden and an amazing safari planned by the hotel. The hotel staff went out of their way to make sure we had everything we needed, everyone was so kind ! The design of the hotel with the huts and palm trees is beautiful. There are constructions going on right now in the hotel. It was not noisy but not particulary nice to see.
• Thorben (10/5): - Exceptionally nice people and great service. We booked a taxi ride via the hotel which turned out to be a top sight seeing and guided tour.
• Jose Maria (10/5): -
• Nick (9/5): In one I loved it and would recommend and definitely stay again the restaurant food is amazing and great value - Very friendly welcoming environment with a lovely atmosphere clean pool area with excellent poolside service for food and drinks, ideal location for a short stay touring visit Request room to be made up daily
• Danielle (10/5): - המקום מושלם. הצוות אדיב ונחמד באופן יוצא דופן, רוצים לעזור ולסייע בכל ולתת מענה לכל צורך או בקשה. בעל המקום נמצא ואירח אותנו באדיבות ובידידות. בערב הראשון הוא לקח אותנו לסיבוב לראות את האגם ולמסעדה נפלאה בשם Red. ישנו בשאלה שהיתה מרווחת, מצוחצחת והמיטה היתה נוחה מאד. ארוחת הבוקר מפנקת וטעימה מאד כוללת ארוחה מערבית וארוחה סרילנקית. הזמנו סיור בספארי והנהג היה מקצועי מאד. באחד הימים הרגשתי לא טוב ובעל המקום דאג למשלוח של פירות ושתיה שיקלו עלי עד שהחלמתי. לסיכום, גן עדן מושלם, מומלץ ביותר. אנחנו נחזור. אהבנו הכל!
• Szamira (10/5): - Csodálatos helyen van, a személyzet nagyon kedves és segítőkész. Az ételek rendben voltak, safari túrát is itt szerveztünk, a legjobb vezetőt kaptuk szerintem. Ár-érték arányban is tökéletes. Ajánlom mindenkinek
• Andreas (10/5): Toller Aufenthalt, hat unsere Erwartungen übertroffen! - Das Personal, das Essen und die Lage waren excellent.
• Clare (10/5): Fantastic location, exceptional staff, 100% recommend. - Fantastic location, excellent staff - very friendly, sociable and couldn’t do enough to help. Very good at putting anti mosquito scent around the site / restaurant at sunset. Refreshing swimming pool, great, spacious lodges (we were given a free upgrade as middle east conflict meant they were quieter than usual), tasty food (6 curry and rice was best I’ve had in 5 weeks in Sri Lanka) - would highly recommend. We had a great sunrise Jeep safari experience. We’re very lucky to see a Leopard crossing the road in front of us within an hour of being in the park! The hotel gave us a packed breakfast to take at 5am! Great service 😊 Nothing, however, a mirror in the bedroom area of the lodge would be a nice touch.
• Emily (10/5): Great place and even better safari - would stay again - Staff couldn’t do more for us, they were so helpful with sorting a safari for us and for making sure we got a transfer the next day. Room was very comfy and pool was excellent! The safari planned by the hotel was brilliant, our guide Sheev was brilliant, took us to all the quiet spots and we saw so many animals including elephants and a leopard! Minor things but would have liked a full length mirror in the room and also a hand towel in the bathroom.
• John (10/5): A very beautiful and relaxing place - It was in a very beautiful and spacious location with a fantastic pool. The room was excellent with comfortable bed and great air con. The staff were welcoming and made our stay a good one
• Manu_B (10/5): Moderne Unterkunft - Sehr großes, sauberes und schönes Zimmer. Frühstück war sehr umfangreich und sehr gut, auch das Abendessen war wunderbar. Alle sind sehr freundlich, wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. In der Früh haben wir Warane im Garten gesehen :-) Klare Empfehlung. -
• Cornel (10/5): - Super nettes Personal, sehr gut gelegen für Yala-Safaris, sehr bequeme Betten, sehr feines Frühstück und und uns Aktuell befinden sich neue Bungalows im Bau. Dies hört man leicht, sieht es beim Pool. Es stört aber kaum und ist auch bald vorbei.
• Helen (9/5): - Staff were fantastic, good location, quite, didn’t eat so cannot comment. Huge pool that was clean. Stayed one night for safari to Yala NP. Room was clean, good air conditioning Bathrooms ceiling needs cleaning & mould removed
• Nakamichi (10/5): 最高でした。　また必ず訪れたいです！ - サファリパークへのアクセスの良さ、素敵なプール、清潔なヴィラ、そしてなによりスタッフの皆様がとても親切でした。　 1歳の息子をみんなで遊んでくれて、本当に良かったです。 部屋はとても清潔で、子供がハイハイするのも全く問題ありませんでした。 子連れにも本当におすすめです！
• Whitney (10/5): -
• Dean (10/5): - The hotel was well located in a nice quiet spot. The one bedroom chalets are well appointed and large with a good sized bathroom as well. All the staff were extremely friendly and attended all our requests with a smile. The food from the restaurant was excellent, including the packed lunch for our tour of Yala NP. All in all a fantastic stay whilst exploring the local area!
• Samantha (9/5): - Peaceful hotel within a good distance to Yala which makes it ideal for safari’s. We did a sunrise safari and the hotel kindly packed us up breakfast to take with us. The staff are fantastic and the food in the restaurant is delicious. The rooms are very spacious and comfortable. The rooms are looking slightly tired. The towels are very old and the mini fridge in the bedroom wasn’t working and needed a good clean, but apart from this we really enjoyed our stay here.
• Leonie (10/5): Leuk & gezellig verblijf! - Nette kamer met een zalig bed en goede airco. Het zwembad is leuk, al was het water wat aan de warme kant – iets waar het personeel natuurlijk niets aan kan doen. Het eten in het restaurant is heel lekker en het personeel is vriendelijk en behulpzaam. Enig minpuntje was dat het water van de douche koud was.
• Cornelia (9/5): -
• Melissa (9/5): Large clean room, good location for safari - We received a warm welcome on arrival. Staff were friendly and our room was large and clean with an air conditioner and overhead fan and a comfortable bed. The pool was a welcome addition, however it was pretty cloudy and full of leaves/seeds etc so we didn’t enjoy it fully. There were sun loungers around the outside and some parasols. There is construction work right by the pool area, it looks unsightly but did not bother us at all as no work was being carried out during our 1 night stay. We took a morning safari that the hotel arranged and they included a prepackaged breakfast. This was a bit poor sadly but overall a great stay. Cloudy pool
• Sophia (8/5): - La gentillesse du personnel était incroyable ! Ils étaient souriants , toujours prêts à satisfaire ! Le lieu était peut être un peu éloigné pour le safari car nous avons mis longtemps avant d’arriver devant le parc . La chambre était propre et spacieuse
• Kian (10/5): Great stay! - The rooms are so much more spacious than they look in the pictures. And all staff here were super friendly and helpful, wish I could have stayed here longer.
• Aurélie (10/5): -
• Timothy (10/5): -
• Marius (10/5): Lovely stay - Lovely stay friendly staff, room is spacious and restaurant as good food. Good location and good parking spaces. They packed a breakfast for us to go on safari.
• Gerda (9/5): Heel goed - Het was een supermooie en -schoon hotel met een mooi zwembad en de mensen waren erg vriendelijk. De ligging is prachtig tussen de kokosnoot bomen Er wordt op dit moment villa’s bijgebouwd. Ze hebben het keurig afgeschermd. Als het klaar is, is het nog mooier
• Beatrix (10/5): - Uns hat hier einfach alles gefallen. Das Zimmer war sehr groß und gut ausgestattet und das Bett war bequem. Der Pool war traumhaft und vor allem nicht zu kalt,so dass unser Sohn lange Zeit hatte um darin zu spielen. Außerdem gab es an dem Pool noch einen kleinen Kinderpool, in dem sich unser Sohn noch mehr austoben konnte. Die Anlage war wunderschön und man konnte viele Tiere sehen (Leguan, Pfau, Hase...). Das Essen war ebenfalls sehr gut und der Service herausragend. Es wurde sogar am Pool bedient und immer wieder gefragt ob man noch etwas benötigt. Auch nachdem er ersten Nacht wurden wir direkt gefragt ob wir noch etwas für unser Zimmer brauchen. Alle waren sehr freundlich zuvorkommend. Wir können das Hotel uneingeschränkt empfehlen.
• Monika (9/5): - Personel był świetny, zawsze uśmiechnięty i przyjazny. Śniadanie pyszne i obfite, zresztą wszystkie posiłki które tam jedliśmy były dobre. Pokoje przestronne, łóżko wygodne. Do parku Yala ok 40min autem. Basen powinien być czystszy i suszarka do wlosow powinna być na wyposażeniu pokoju
• Karina (9/5): - Die Mitarbeiter waren begeistert unglaublich freundlich und zuvorkommend. Der Pool war schön und die Anlage war sehr gepflegt. Die Zimmer sind, besonders das Bad schon etwas in die Jahre gekommen, dennoch sehr sauber! Außerhalb des Hotels ist nichts viel, das sollte einem bewusst sein, aber das Essen im Hotel ist sehr gut! Man fühlt sich im Restaurant und der Anlage generell schon fast wie in Afrika und hat das Safari Feeling. Wir empfehlen wirklich die Sunrise Safari vom Hotel zu machen, wir waren die ersten im Nationalpark und es wird so organisiert, dass man nicht mit 100 Jeeps auf einem Haufen steht. Zudem haben wir alle Tierarten gesehen. Wirklich empfehlenswert! Bad könnte erneuert werden
• Michelle (10/5): Happy friendly staff - they made you feel like family. - Friendly, happy staff. They seamlessly arranged an amazing safari and we were so lucky to see two leopards! There was building work adjacent to the pool. It wasn’t too noisy, and had tarpaulin around. Just had to look at the stunning gardens on the three other sides of the pool.
• Lisa (10/5): Fabulous hotel and restaurant, amazing staff. - The staff at this hotel are outstanding! Excellent hotel with nice grounds and a clean pool. Our room was very spacious and well maintained with good facilities. (Small fridge, tea and coffee). Food at the hotel was fantastic, a great menu and all meals were delicious. The food and drinks are very reasonably priced. Our breakfast was included and amazing, a mix of both Sri Lankan and western. I would definitely stay here again and recommend this hotel to our friends. Hot water seems very hit and miss.
• Conquest (10/5): - Absolutely amazing staff. Food was exceptional. Pool was fantastic and a great location for Yala. Highly recommend Had kettle in room but no coffe etc.....very minor but would just be a nice touch. Pillows werent the comfyest but thats my personal preferance.
• Kira (10/5): Fantastiskt hotell med underbar personal - Mycket vänlig personal. Man fick 5 stjärnig service. Det hjälpte med allt och tipsade på eget initiativ om saker för att vi skulle ha det så bra som möjligt. Safarin via dem gick mycket smidigt.
• Jenny (10/5): -
• Jordy (10/5): - We had a wonderful stay! Great location and nice room. Especially all the staff was reaalt kind and always helpful! Big thanks to everyone and especially for Dinushi who was so kind and always there for us!
• Alessia (10/5): - Spatious place, very bright. The staff is very welcoming and friendly, ready to help and assist you with whatever you need. Pool and pool area are really nice and relaxing. The room was super clean and spatious too, shower very well functioning. Restaurant area is also very nice. The menu was rich and full of different choices. We had the curry and it was amazing! A 10/10 experience, we wished we had booked another night. Bonus: if you go morning safari on the check out date they let you keep your room til 12.30pm so that you can have a refreshing and well needed shower. They are simply amazing! Recommended ++
• Irene (8/5): - Grande stanza e bel giardino curato, colazione ottima e staff gentilissimo!!! Piscina con sdraio e materassini un po’ logori, e lavori di costruzione affianco alla piscina che danno poco spazio al relax
• David (9/5): Un petit cocon de paradis. - L’accueil, le jardin, le staff, le petit déjeuner incroyable. Les travaux
• Declan (10/5): The best hotel in Sri Lanka so far! - Everything! The accommodation is excellent, the food is amazing and the staff and attentive and kind. Nothing!
• Jörg (10/5): Wunderschöner Ort zum Genießen und für eine tolle Safari - Tolle Unterkunft inmitten eines wunderschönen Gartens mit Pool. Sehr saubere großzügige Zimmer mit hohen Decken.Sowohl das Frühstück als auch das Abendessen war authentisch und auf hohem Niveau. Das Personal top, professionell und super freundlich. Wir hatten über das Hotel eine Safari gebucht. Ein tolles Erlebnis dank des erfahrenen und charmanten Guides. Alle Tierarten durften wir bestaunen, sogar einen Leoparden aus nächster Nähe.
• Gerlinde (10/5): -
• Marie Ange (10/5): Perfect! - I spent 3 absolutely fantastic days here! The room is very comfortable, the view, the calm. The place is incredibly peaceful. The cuisine is delicious. Bravo to the people in the kitchen. 😊 Thank you also to the reception staff, you are exceptionally kind!! Very nice meetings, I miss you all already... I hope to come back 🙏🏻
• Ruben (10/5): - We traveled as a family with kids (2-4). The place is very clean and quiet. The rooms are big and welcoming. The pool is well temperatured. The meals (breakfast and dinner) are great. Also the owner provides special safari prices and has good experienced guides. It’s worth asking. Special thanks go to Dinushi. She took great care of us while being there. Overall this is a great place to start exploring Yala NP.
• Filia (9/5): -
• Katharina Helene (6/5): - Nettes Personal.
• Miroslav (10/5): - The best experience with safari with Shaun Nice resort , nice stuff and its so nice food
• KWONG HEI (8/5): - Attractive price Lots of mosquito
• Joanna (9/5): -
• Isabel_Cabral (8/5): - Ambiente exterior, jardins e piscina Os quartos podiam ser mais modernos
• Geoff (9/5): This is the place to stay if you are a Bird Watcher. So close to the lake. Our Farourite Place - The staff are excellent, we had a wonderful waitress (with very good English) in the restaurant who always looked after us, understood what we wanted and got good food for us, breakfast and dinner. Very happy. All the staff are smiling, happy and always greet you politely. From pool and room cleaners, to reception and restaurant. Loved all the birds and wild life in the gardens. So close to the Lake, you can walk and enjoy the birds, no need for a guide. Rooms very spacious. Pool was cloudy and I didn't want to swim in it. This was OK as I had hurt my arm and I am not a big swimmer. Fire going in the back of the grounds which was not nice. I couldn't sit out on my terrace due to the fumes. No mirror in the bed room! (Just in the bathroom). Difficult to dry my hair! No Hair dryer provided. Fridge door hung the wrong way so very difficult to open in the cabinet. None of these comments would stop us returning and overall this was our favourite stay out of 8 different locations in Sri Lanka.
• MARTA (9/5): -
• peter (8/5): - Mooi zwembad, schoon en mooie huizen Het restaurant is erg traag, eten duurt soms meer dan een uur
• Marlene (8/5): - Die Mitarbeiter:innen sind sehr nett. Das Hotel ist grundsätzlich sauber und auch schön. Als wir dort waren, wurden noch weitere Cabanas gebaut. Das Essen war auch lecker. Der Pool war etwas milchig. In unserem Bad waren viele Ameisen, obwohl das Bad geschlossen war. Die Unterkunft hat uns gut gefallen, es ist einfach so, dass der Ort wirklich nur da ist zum Safari machen gefühlt. Der Ort Tissamaharama ist weit weg und es fühlt sich sehr nach gated community an. Das hat aber wenig mit dem Hotel zutun. Für den Aufenthalt dort und für die Safari war es gut.
• Ursula (9/5): Perfekt viloplats vid Yala Safari - Rummet, poolen, maten och personalen Läget, låg utanför allt
• Peter (9/5): -

• Yvonne (8/5): Super fijn! - Fijne schone kamers. Personeel is ook super vriendelijk. De locatie zit net iets te ver van het stadje.
• Katie (9/5): Just the most homely stay. And excellent contacts for best safari experience. -
• Miguel (10/5): -
• Paula (6/5): Good hotel to do safari with if you’re only staying for a night. - Safari provided by the hotel was amazing, staff were very friendly, food was great. It faces on to a building site so the photos are misleading! It meant that being by the pool wasn’t very pleasant.

• Karen (8/5): Good staycation for Yala Safari - Location Style Breakfast Lovely room Staff There is building work extension to property opposite the pool which detracts from the quietness of the property I have put the photos of the building work opposite the rooms Whilst work is going on the prices should be lowered to reflect this
• Pierre (8/5): - We loved the pool and the garden. Large room and bathroom. Friendly staff. Diner was delicious. The place was quiet until a bus of other guests with teenies arrived.
