Guest Reviews
- Afsana Begum Parwej (9/5): -
- Claire (6/5): - La vue sur le lac Hôtel très vieillot pour un 5* Bcp à refaire
- Telma (7/5): - O Buffet e a vista da piscina eram muito bons Os quartos eram um pouco velhos e não tinham varanda
- Lori (8/5): Nice location with friendly staff - The staff were friendly, nice welcome drink and cool towel on arrival, nice pool and lakeside view The rooms are a bit dated and bathroom needs redoing with mould appearing on the ceiling. There’s a raised lip going into the bathroom which is unsafe as I kept tripping on it.
- Surej (10/5): -
- Lewis (10/5): -
- Gabor (7/5): - Great location, good food. Overpriced compared to other locations. Strong room for improvement with regards to cleaning.
- Shantha (10/5): - Pool area is very beautiful
- Sophie (7/5): -
- Anna (6/5): Skuffende oplevelse og dårlig service - Fin beliggenhed God udsigt fra værelset Uopmærksomt personale, strømmen gik mange gange og ingen hjælp. Mad i buffeten var kedelig og ikke spændende. Hotellet slidt og ikke pengene værd
- Valentina (7/5): -
- Zachary (10/5): -
- Vanesa (8/5): - Beautiful views to the lake. Nice place with restaurant, pool and garden. Lovely staff. The hotel is outdated. They need to pay for a renovation as it’s a five star hotel. Specially the bathroom.
- Alexandre Mendonça (10/5): - A localização é simplesmente top, perfeita para quem procura tranquilidade. O staff é super simpático e sempre disponível, tornando a estadia ainda mais agradável. O pequeno-almoço é ótimo, com variedade e qualidade. O lago em frente ao hotel é lindíssimo, e tanto a piscina como os quartos com vista para o lago tornam a experiência ainda mais relaxante. Adorámos cada momento da nossa estadia. Altamente recomendado!
- Hannah (10/5): Perfect and wish we had more time to stay longer here - Such an amazing stay. Greeted on arrival with a drink and were taken such good care of. The room was extremely clean and comfortable. The swimming pool and view of the lake was also beautiful. We also had a lovely spa treatment which was extremely easy to arrange and relaxing. We wish we could have stayed longer but used it as a base to go on our safari. Nothing to note.
- Václav (10/5): Krásný hotel u jezera - Velmi překrásné místo u jezera, naprosto milý personál a skvělé služby. Uvítali nás lotosovými květy. Využili jsme masáže, bazén, i soukromou večeři u jezera, kde nám kromě soukromého kuchaře a servírky přišel zazpívat pár písní zpěvák s kytarou. Navštívili jsme národní park Yala s jeepem za zvíŕaty.
- Matthew (8/5): Pleasant enough - food good and staff very attentive and helpful. - Pool, food, staff very pleasant and mostly clean. Comfortable bed Room felt a little ‘dated’ - bathroom needs updating Expensive for the quality of the room
- Pia (9/5): -
- Pumudu (8/5): - perfect location,. Very helpful staff, very clean My room is 3 floor difficult with my legs to walk no elevator and booked double bed they gave twin after that thay but a duvet and make it double and when we stay ther roof cevilion strap fallen 😂😂 every thing is good i dont like cold food they are serving and too salty
- Maria (10/5): - Tolle Unterkunft, Mega Aussicht, nettes Personal, die Rezeptionistin Sachini hat für uns eine Safari und ein Taxi organisiert. Gerne wieder :)
- Lucy (9/5): Loved it! Great location, pool & food. - I did a heap of research regarding where best to stay to access Yala National Park. I was really pleased with my choice of EKHO Tissa. Other hotels are much closer to the park entrance but are much more expensive. Also, I like to be closer to the town to have the option to walk around a local town and have the option to eat outside the hotel - EKHO ticked these boxes. It had such a lovely feel about it - the reception and common areas had an open plan, tropical feel. The pool was just lovely - it overlooked the lake and to a small island in the lake where water buffalo would swim across to and wallow. We also had some of the best Sri Lankan food there - including a jackfruit curry that I hadn't had anywehre else (and they weren't shy with the spices - great!). We stayed for 2 nights and we never did eat outside the hotel. I would really recommend EKHO Tissa.
- chanakam812 (10/5): Fantastic stay - The hotel stay is fantastic and we enjoy lot ,Angela and the team doing a great job

- Climber04427653556 (10/5): Amazing time - Angela and her team especially the kitchen staff were amazing
- Henry (8/5): - Gutes Zimmer, Frühstück Buffet gut. Preis Leistung ist etwas zu hoch für den Gesammtzustand des Hotels. Wir hatten Zimmer im Erdgeschoss aber keine Sitzgelegenheiten vor der Terrasse.
- Global03086810941 (10/5): Wow .. 🥰🥳 - Best location A bit hot & humid .. but atmosphere at resort was top class. Clean & Nice rooms .. clean resort very well maintained. And the best part .. the Staff Sachini .. very courteous and pleasant indeed.
- nethman2026 (10/5): Amazing hospitality - Amazing stay. Especially I want to mention the hospitality of the staff members. Truly a personalised experience. Very highly recommended.
- 844prasannag (10/5): Great location - Exellent stay in the best location at Thissamaharama. Great room, friendly staffs, great food. Sachini at front desk and Jayasooriya at restaurant were very friendly and helpfull. The management is keeping this hotel in the top quality. Rooms were very clean and spotless.
- Z9145PUjaninep (10/5): Fantastic resort- great location - sashini the receptionist was so helpful and attentive. Nothing was too much trouble - Outstanding resort, pool was awesome, clean and great temperature. Food was good with lots of choice and so many staff to help. Highly recommend this resort
- Björn (9/5): -
- Matthew (5/5): Lost power on multiple occasions leading to an uncomfortable and stressful stay - The location is great and the grounds are well maintained We lost power on 5 occasions during our single night stay. It the whole hotel, just our room. We were only offered a room change on one of these 5 occasions an it was after 10pm. The staff were unhelpful, slow to respond and it felt like we were a burden when requesting to have the power returned. Absolutely not what I expect from a 4 star hotel
- Louise (9/5): Very enjoyable and peaceful - The stunning view of the lake at sunset and the delightful staff Buffet Dinners
- Himo_did_travel (10/5): Must stay ! - Godo ambience, great service, good stay
- jyotijd (10/5): Feedback - It was an amazing experience. And special thanks to the chef Anuruddha Lakshitha for the delicious food.
- 79christofg (10/5): Outstanding Hospitality at EKHO Safari Hotel - We had a wonderful stay at EKHO Safari Hotel and would happily give it five stars. The hotel offers beautiful views over the lake, especially at sunset, which creates a very relaxing and special atmosphere. The rooms are generous in size, very clean, and comfortable, with stunning views over the water. The food throughout our stay was excellent and the service was consistently friendly and attentive. One small detail that deserves special mention is the cappuccino, which was honestly the best we had during our time in Sri Lanka. We were traveling with our three year old daughter who has an egg allergy. The staff paid incredible attention to this and went out of their way to make sure she could safely enjoy her meals and never felt excluded. That level of care meant a lot to us as parents. During our stay our daughter developed an unusual skin reaction that unfortunately got worse over a few days. The General Manager, Shantha Kumara, personally accompanied me to a private hospital, helped translate with the doctors, and even covered the cost of the visit. This level of kindness and care went far beyond what we would ever expect from a hotel and we are deeply grateful. We also highly recommend the Balinese massage by Tiara, which was exceptional and one of the highlights of our stay. Overall, EKHO Safari Hotel offers excellent food, beautiful surroundings, outstanding cappuccino, and truly remarkable hospitality. We felt incredibly well taken care of and would gladly come back.

- Kathryn (8/5): Birdwatchers paradise! - Loved wildlife watching over the lake - if you're into birds, this is a perfect place to come! They decorated our room and gave us complimentary cake for our honeymoon which was lovely. They provided us with a good takeaway breakfast as our safari left early morning. Our room got slightly flooded due to the torrential rain but they sorted this out promptly and gave us a discount. Parts of the hotel felt a bit dated. The buffet food was good but not the best we had! Overall felt it was a little expensive for the facilities.
- Quest32450632010 (10/5): Lake view pool with hotel and safari - Lovely hotel with a great pool and lake view. Very well placed for safari tours to Yala and the food has been great Sachini and Lakshan were very helpful and friendly - I will be coming back!

- rihafila (10/5): Highly Recommended for a Relaxing Stay - We had a wonderful stay , The hotel was clean, comfortable, and the atmosphere was very pleasant with a beautiful view of Tissa lake. The staff were friendly, and always willing to help. I would especially like to appreciate the waitress Udani for the excellent service. She was very kind, attentive and positive attitude. Overall a great place with great hospitality. Thank you for having us.
- markrJ9427XB (10/5): Outstanding stay at EKHO Safari Tissa - I had a wonderful stay at EKHO Safari Tissa, and the property offers one of the best lake views in the area, creating a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere throughout the stay. The food was absolutely delicious, with a great variety and excellent quality in every meal. Staff provided very friendly and attentive customer service throughout our stay. Rooms were clean, comfortable, and well maintained. The hotel also offers a beautiful tyre swing and a scenic swing right at the lake's edge, adding a unique and relaxing touch to the experience. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Tissamaharama for a peaceful getaway or safari experience.

- jacobmN7951HK (8/5): An exceptional service - Excellent visit and service, great location and the safari trip nearby was great value added.
- Freedom48820939394 (10/5): Good stay near safari spot - Good stay at the hotel with good food as well ! We also experienced the safari near the hotel which was amazing. Thanks for the stay
- Carmen (7/5): - The staff genuinely tried to make us feel welcome and were kind throughout our stay. The location is beautiful, with a lovely garden, a nice pool area, and a restaurant that looks very pleasant and inviting. However, the property itself feels quite old. The furniture is heavily worn and the towels appear extremely outdated and overused, to the point where they felt uncomfortable to use. The room size was decent, but the bedding was arranged in a rather unusual way, with different sheets covering separate parts of the bed, which affected comfort. The bathroom is also old and in need of renovation. Overall, while the staff and natural setting are enjoyable, the hotel would benefit significantly from refurbishment and improved linen quality.
- Caro (1/5): - Nothing I liked! This hotel is advertised as a 5-star property, but it does not meet that standard at all. Realistically, it would qualify as a 3-star hotel at best. The bed linens and towels are old and worn out. The mattress is extremely uncomfortable — the metal springs are clearly noticeable and press into your back, making it very difficult to sleep. This is absolutely unacceptable for a hotel claiming to offer five-star comfort. The room was not properly cleaned and had a very strong and unpleasant odor. At times, it smelled like urine, which is completely unacceptable in any hotel, especially one marketed as a 5-star property. Overall hygiene standards are far below what you would expect. During rainfall, the ceilings are leaking. There was also insect infestation in the room, creating serious hygiene and safety concerns. The food smelled so bad that we were unable to eat it. The price-performance ratio is extremely poor. For a hotel advertised as 5 stars, this level of quality is deeply disappointing and unacceptable. We cannot recommend this property.
- C4579FGjennyb (10/5): We had a great afternoon at the game park and a lovely overnight stay with a meal and a swim by the water. - Anuruddha served an amazing authentic Sri Lankan buffet . The breads were very tasty and the desserts were so yummy. Great service too
- P4021YCcarlac (2/5): Not a 5-Star Hotel - avoid this place - This hotel is advertised as a 5-star property, but it does not meet that standard at all.

- NorthStar42551464338 (10/5): A very good experience - This location is beautiful, with the hotel sitting on a lake. The view from my room, looking onto the lake, was stunning. Since the hotel is small, it was peaceful and conducive to enjoyment. All of the staff, including those at the front desk, dining room, bell boys and housekeeping, were exceptionally helpful and courteous. The food was acceptable even though, given that buffets were the norm, the same items seemed to be served at all times!
- Holger (10/5): - Wunderschöne Lage am See. Teilweise hat man Krokodile gesehen. Sehr romantisch mit schönem Sonnenuntergang.
- MarkJacqui3931 (4/5): Must be better options in town - Ok hotel / resort but rather tired and in need of a refresh. The bathroom & rooms weren’t completely clean. Toilet seat was too small for the bowl, towels & pillow slips tatty and threads hanging, King size bed made by using a double & single sheet, not a 4 star resort by any means. Dinner & Breakfast ok but lacking, breads were terrible.
- kcooray53 (10/5): Excellent location and service - Excellent service, clean rooms and absolutely delicious food. Udeni and Jayasuriya were so kind and took such a good care of us during our stay. Beautiful atmosphere. All the staff were very friendly. Thanks Team will return again.
- jessicamR5642YH (8/5): Amazing stay near Yala - I really enjoyed staying at this hotel. The area around the lake is very peaceful and quiet. Also the hotel is close to Yala Nationalpark if you plan to go there.
- ChrisT4198 (10/5): Home Away from Home - Lovely location on Tissa Lake, not far from Yala National Park. Delicious food and cordial staff. Sachini was professional and courteous.
- Yenthanhbradshaw (10/5): We stayed in 6 hotels in Sri Lanka and this was the best. Good food, beautiful views over the lake, clean and hospitabl - We stayed in 6 hotels in Sri Lanka and this was the best. Good food, beautiful views over the lake, clean and hospitable

- Wander757086 (10/5): A pleasant stay - My wife & I stayed here for 2 days and found the room to be clean and well maintained. The staff were friendly and pleasant.. Restaurant staff were helpful and buffet spreads for breakfast and dinner was sufficient The environment was nice . It was a good idea to give all ladies a rose on Valentine night. We overall enjoyed our stay. Thanks
- Michał (7/5): - Słabej jakości jedzenie
- Leila (10/5): - We had another wonderful stay at this hotel. While everything was great, we want to give a special shout-out to Sachini at the reception. She was incredibly friendly, professional, and helpful from the moment we checked in. Her warm personality and excellent service made us feel truly valued as guests. It’s team members like her who make this place so special!
- Peter (8/5): - Personal sehr nett, gute Lage für Safari Badezimmer schon sehr veraltet
- NAMAL SUDEERA FERNANDO (10/5): -
- 609sachind (8/5): Overall a decent stay - It was a pleasant stay. The property is good and the staff cordial. The room cleaning staff could have done better though. A special mention of the hotel manager Ms.Anji, she was really very helpful and warm.
- katiedQ2878LS (10/5): Perfect stay for access to National Parks - Excellent hotel with a great view. The service was incredible from the moment we walked in. I wish we had been able to stay for more than one night!
- katerinag647 (10/5): Round trip around Sri Lanka - Very good location by a lake, nice atmosphere, good breakfast and dinner, service from Sachini very good, pleasant staff.
- Sabrina (10/5): -
- manlya2018 (10/5): A stunning hotel on a beautiful lake - perfect for a sunset cocktail. - I couldn’t recommend this hotel enough. It was such a shame we were there for only one night. The food was sensational with a great variety of options, the staff were so welcoming and hospitable, especially Norah! It is a gate way to the local Yala safari and I would recommend taking a boat out of the lake to see the wildlife and stunning view! Ideally at sunrise (which I did) or sunset - just majestic. Hope you enjoy as much as me.

- Anna (7/5): - It is a beautiful location next to the lake The lobby is magnificent but the rest of the hotel is looking tired. Our room was ok but had booked a lake view but had a tree in front of our window so couldn’t see it. Food not brilliant as it’s all buffet style.
- Ioan (7/5): - Locație frumoasă, care te face să te simți aproape de sălbăticie, mai ales că probabil mulți vin pentru Safari. Este la malul lacului Tissa și priveliștea este foarte frumoasă. Am avut probleme cu ușa, nu se încuia, s-a rezolvat într-un final, iar baia era pătată într-un colț pe tavan. Considerăm că nu arăta a 5 stele camera, undeva cam de 3 stele, deși locația per general arată frumos.
- Emma (10/5): Wonderful Hotel and Staff - Stunning pool area and lovely staff with beautiful rooms - live singer and amazing buffet food for a very low price. Organized a private safari last minute with a fabulous driver.
- leadingbeesm (10/5): Excellent place to stay - We had a great time in this hotel. Nice clean rooms and the environment. Staff are very friendly and welcoming. Food is excellent. The Sri Lankan food is very tasty. Ever tasty food in Tissa area. Highly recommended for a holiday. Worth for money.
- sanukm2026 (10/5): Excellent stay at EkHO safari - A fantastic place to go to for a safari trip. The rooms are great and there is a good variety of food in the buffet. The service was also good and the staff always attended to our needs. The location overlooks a lake, giving a beautiful atmosphere and view from the rooms. The rooms were very clean and there was no noise at night disturbing our sleep.
- Tara (10/5): Great hotel. Friendly staff. Beautiful setting - Perfectly located to do a safari trip. Beautiful setting on the lake. Restaurants close by if you don’t want to eat at the hotel restaurant.
