Ariya Tissa

We hebben een heel fijn verblijf gehad bij Ariya Tissa. De gastheren zijn ontzettend vriendelijk en behulpzaam. We kwamen ‘s avonds aan en kregen een heerlijk zelfgemaakt Sri Lankaans diner. We hebben via het hotel een safari in Yala NP geregeld. Dit was een hele leuke ervaring die we niet hadden willen missen. Al met al een dikke aanrader!

Niets!

La comida espectacular y la atención del personal. Nos ayudaron en todo lo que necesitábamos.

Nada

Tutto, soprattutto l’accoglienza e la cordialità dello staff. La colazione e la cena ottime! Molto buona anche la pulizia

Un 10! Este alojamiento es increíble, la habitación es muy grande, estaba muy limpia y todo ordenado con mucho cuidado. La familia es encantadora, nos hicieron sentir como en casa y nos prepararon una cena deliciosa. Son muy agradables y se preocupaban por nosotros en todo momento. Sin duda, si volviéramos a Sri Lanka nos quedaríamos en este mismo alojamiento mínimo 2 noches. Gracias!

We had an amazing stay in Ariya Tissa for our 2 nights, staff were wonderful and very accommodating. We'd booked a safari leaving early morning and they ensured we were able to have a breakfast packed to bring with us. We had dinner there on our 2nd night and were served a plethora of fantastic freshly cooked foods, as well as a lovely curd dessert made that morning. I also want to highlight the shower, it was truly exceptional and the best shower of our entire trip in Sri Lanka. A very welcome treat after a full day safari in the heat!

This is without a doubt the most beautiful place we stayed in during our time in Sri Lanka. Ariya Tissa is an incredible hotel, cared for down to the smallest detail. The room was absolutely beautiful, the property itself is stunning, and every little corner feels special. But what truly makes this place unforgettable are its people. The staff are incredibly professional, kind, empathetic, friendly and genuinely wonderful. From the moment we arrived until the moment we said goodbye, they made us feel completely at home. We had such lovely conversations and beautiful exchanges about our different cultures, which made our stay even more meaningful. It was such an incredible experience that we honestly wished we could have stayed one more night! A little tip: have dinner here! We had the best meal of our entire trip in Sri Lanka. We chose the full menu and absolutely did not regret it, every dish was delicious and beautifully prepared. We truly recommend booking a stay here. It is a fantastic place, but the people who make it special are even more so. We will remember Ariya Tissa and the wonderful people we met here for a very long time.

Ottima struttura con sole 2 camere pulitissime e ampie. Personale gentilissimo e ottima anche la cena cucinata al momento su richiesta.

nulla tutto perfetto

Indika, il gestore, e il suo staff sono persone fantastiche! Gentilissime, sempre disponibili e con un grande sorriso. Indika ci ha cucinato la cena e la colazione, una delle più buone mai mangiate in Sri Lanka. Complimenti al team!!!

Selten so freundliche Mitarbeiter in einer Unterkunft erlebt. Es wurde sich sehr viel Mühe mit den schönen Zimmern (insgesamt 2) gemacht und der Besitzer hat abends super lecker frisch für uns gekocht, nachdem wir nachmittags etwas von der Karte bei ihm bestellt haben. Die Betten waren sehr bequem, es war ruhig und die Lage war super für unsere Yala-Safari am nächsten Tag. Absolute Empfehlung!

Es war alles perfekt!

The amazing staff who were so accommodating and kind. We loved everything from the facilities, food, kind people - all amazing!

Nothing!

Amazing stuff, so welcoming and nice Beautiful room and very comfortable bed and clean bath room

The husband and wife team were absolutely fantastic. They cooked a wonderful traditional Sri Lankan dinner feast for 4 of us that I won’t forget for a while. They also arranged our trip to Yala National park. Very competitive pricing. Ariya Tissa was a good base for our short stay in Tisssa.

The property is a little way out of town with no amenities close by. Rooms were clean but lacked character. A little hard to find so make sure your driver knows where to go.

숙소 사장님이 요리 정말 잘하시구 섬세하게 이것저것 다 잘챙겨 주셨어요! 연계되어있는 사파리 투어까지 했는데 Nissanka가이드님 덕분에 표범도 3마리나 보고 원하는 동물들 말씀드리니 정말 하나도 빠짐없이 다 보고왔어요! 숙소사장님이 새벽부터 조식도시락도 챙겨주시고 사파리 다녀와서 먹을 버팔로 요거트도 너무 너무 맛있었어요! 숙소 위치 시내에서 멀지않아 밥집도 많았고 걸어서 3분정도 거리에 한국라면집도 있었어요! 사장님 진짜 계속 필요한건 없는지 물어봐주시고 사파리 끝나고 피곤했는데 좋은 호텔에서 아주아주 푹쉬다가 호강하고 간 느낌이에요!! 완전 추천합니다!!

Cosy lite place just at the edge of Tissa. The place very clean and bathroom in great condition. The best part of our stay however was the food. I would say eating dinner or lunch here at least once is a must. The owner could help us arrange both transport and safari

Very pleasant and friendly staff. Excellent food. Excellent value for money.

Nothing

Todo

Indika was excellent, helped organise tours, laundry, the food he cooked was amazing, even put on a quasi cooking class. Extremely helpful. I liked the location being out of town, quieter and near enough to walk into town when needed. Lovely spot.

Nothing

A very nice and cozy place. The owner, Indika, is incredibly pleasant and an amazing cook. We were absolutely delighted with the meals he prepared for us

We were generally lucky with the properties we chose in Sri Lanka and the service they provided, but this place was on another level. The staff were exceptional and took such great care of us throughout our stay. I highly recommend booking the safari through the property as well—it was a fantastic experience and very well organized. They also helped us with laundry, which we truly appreciated after arriving from the rainy north with everything wet and dirty. We would definitely love to come back, even just for the amazing atmosphere.

Very modern and the host was very helpful

The rooms were super new and spacious—you could feel how fresh it was as soon as you walked in. The staff were really friendly and ready to do anything to help. I only stayed one day, but I left so happy.

Pour l’instant il n’y a que 2 chambres dans l’établissement mais 2 autres vont arriver prochainement. Notre chambre était spacieuse et bien équipée, la salle de bain très jolie et spacieuse aussi. L’endroit est très paisible et le seul murmure est celui des oiseaux. Le gérant est magnifique et très volontaire pour bien faire. Vous serez donc ravi de passer 1 ou plusieurs nuits dans cet établissement.

Rien

There are not enough good words to say about this accommodation. Stylish, contemporary architecture and the best shower in all of Sri Lanka! Indika, the manager, is an outstanding host who helped arrange tours and transport. This man brings love to everything he does. He’s also an excellent cook who prepared amazing dinners, and wonderful breakfasts. We were very well cared for during our five night stay.

Nothing negative to say.

Indika and his team went above and beyond for us to make sure we had an amazing stay. Thank you so much. On the first night we arrived late and Indika prepared a dinner for us so that we didn’t have to go into town and could have more rest before the early safari start the next day. Here is where we experienced the best food we’ve had in Sri Lanka. Indika is an incredible cook! Well remember those dishes for a long time. We hope Indika starts his own cooking classes! We’ll be back! The safari was a wonderful and memorable experience. Our guide was very knowledgable about the animals and took us to the best spots. We saw leopards, elephants, crocodiles, mongoose, peacocks, so many variety of birds, buffalos, deer, and more. The room was large and comfortable and the shower was great! Modern bathroom with powerful shower and plenty of hot water.

The rooms could have a mirror in the main room, along with hooks, and generally could be made a little more cozy with the design and furnishings. There were meant to be 2 more rooms built on the second floor but this was stopped since covid. We hope that the owner will invest in finishing these rooms very soon so that more people can come and stay at Ariya Tissa and experience what we did!

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans cet home stay. Les propriétaires sont des gens vraiment très gentils et attentionnés. Les petits déjeuner et repas sont excellents, recherchés, raffinés et faits avec des produits de très bonne qualité. La chambre est très grande et très agréable, tout comme la salle de bain. L'environnement est très calme tout en étant très proche du centre (10 minutes à pied). Les propriétaires nous ont trouvé un guide pour faire Yala. Trés très bonne expérience, à faire vraiment. A faire aussi absolument Ranminithenna Tele Cinema Village, de vrais décors de Bollywood. Même si c'est un peu laissé à l'abandon, cela vaut le coup. Nous recommandons vivement ce logement.

Wunderschöne Unterkunft in der Nähe des Nationalparks. Das Bett war sehr gemütlich und auch das Badezimmer sehr schön mit toller Dusche und warmen Wasser. Das Personal war unfassbar nett, aufmerksam und sehr zuvorkommend – wir haben uns sofort willkommen gefühlt. Sie erfüllen jeden Wunsch. Die Safari sollte man unbedingt über die Unterkunft buchen. Unser Guide war großartig und hat sich unglaublich viel Mühe gegeben, damit wir viele Tiere sehen. Gleichzeitig hat er uns immer genug Zeit gegeben, die Tiere in Ruhe zu beobachten. Er hat wirklich alles dafür getan, dass wir einen Leoparden sehen – und am Ende hatten wir tatsächlich Glück! Für die Safari hat uns die Unterkunft außerdem ein tolles Lunchpaket sowie eine Kühlbox voller Wasser vorbereitet. Auch das Frühstück war sehr lecker. Insgesamt ein wirklich besonderer Aufenthalt, den wir absolut weiterempfehlen können.

Das WLAN ist schlecht, dass hat uns aber nicht so gestört.

Delicious breakfasts and food in the restaurant. The organized safari day was very enjoyable, and the driver who took us told us a lot about birds and other animals. One day we managed to see a leopard several times!

Номер, ужин, организация поездки на сафари и нопор горячей воды в душе отлично!!

Exceptional staff, very friendly and helpful, and excellent food.

clean comfortable room

good breakfast

Sehr modern gemacht, schickes Bad. Alles in sehr gutem Zustand. Lage für uns als Zwischenübernachtung zur Safari völlig ausreichend. Sehr freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal.

Our three-day stay at Ariya Tissa was nothing short of outstanding. From the moment we arrived, the experience felt truly world-class, marked by hospitality that came straight from the heart. The room was spacious, beautifully appointed, and thoughtfully designed for comfort and relaxation. Every meal was lip-smacking and memorable, reflecting great care, quality, and attention to detail. A very special mention to Kanchana and Indika, who were the perfect hosts. They went above and beyond in every possible way, making us feel genuinely at home and ensuring our stay was seamless and warm. Ariya Tissa sets a benchmark for gracious hospitality, and we leave with wonderful memories and gratitude.

Indika the manager, his wife and his team were wonderful. The rooms are fabulous with the best shower we have had since arriving in Sri Lanka (the 6th place we have stayed). The attention to detail, the cleanliness and service were excellent! The food was fantastic with every effort to go that little bit extra to make a difference.. Even the salads are made with care and difference. We had problems with our jeep the day we left and Indika did everything possible to dind a solution. We can highly recommend this establishment without hesitation. Thank you Indika and your team for everything! 🙏

Wir wurden direkt bei Ankunft herzlichst empfangen, da wir etwas früher als Check-in da waren bekamen wir noch einen selbstgemachten Eistee aufs Haus. Die Zimmer sind sehr komfortabel und modern. Die Dusche hatte einen sehr guten Wasserdruck. Die Safari die uns über das Hotel vermittelt wurde war wunderbar, unser Fahrer Nishanka hat sich sehr gut ausgekannt und hat sich den tieren gegenüber sehr respektvoll verhalten. Der Besitzer des Hotels kocht außerdem für seine Gäster und sein Essen kann man wirklich nur empfehlen. Er macht das ganze mit so einer Leidenschaft und Freude und hat uns immer wieder etwas zum Probieren gebracht. Besonders empfehlen können wir das Grilled chicken und die Garlic butter prawns. Wir würden definitiv wieder kommen!!!

Friendly and attentive staff.

Would be good to have some hooks to hang clothes

The hosts were really nice and helpful, the food was great and on top of that the safari we booked with them was totally worth it! We even saw the leopard!

-

Wonderful staff, just two rooms at present, pretty garden with kingfishers and other lovely birds. Stylish decor (though no wardrobe or drawers). Great bathroom. Manager arranged a fabulous private safari and packed us breakfast and lunch. Four leopard spottings! The manager spent three years as a cook at the Sri Lankan embassy in Australia. The dinner he cooked us after our safari was the best we had all holiday. We wished we’d eaten there both nights.

Nothing

Staff were amazing - so friendly and helpful. Room was spacious and clean. Location right near Yala national park.

No mosquito nets

Super nice hosts that did everything for us to have a nice time. The food was amazing - fresh, selfmade and prepared with a lot of love. The property is a bit secluded so you feel relaxed instantly. The room was very spacious with new/modern furniture and the bathroom was incredible, especially the shower worked really well. The Safari with Nishshanka is also worth every cent. His experience really showed when looking for leopards. Other cars were going around like crazy, while he just told us: „we‘ll wait here for 10 minutes have your breakfast“. And wouldn‘t you know it, we were the first to spot the cat maybe 50m away while eating… At first we thought it might have been luck, but a very similar situation played out in the afternoon. So we’re pretty confident, he‘s the man to go to Yala with.

It was probably the second best room we have been in Sri Lanka. Room is tidy and clean, hot water available for the shower, wide spaces, nicely decorated. The staff is nice, especially the man who welcomed us at night, he speaks english and has a really welcoming attitude.

Everything was good. The only thing we could suggest is to put curtains to the big room windows since some light gets in from outside lightning.

Warm welkom, prachtige accommodatie, kleinschalig (2 kamers), zeer ruime en schone kamers. Van alle benodigdheden voorzien (goede bedden, ruime douche met heerlijke waterstraal, tv (indien je hier behoefte aan heb), koelkast, airco.) Complex staat in een prachtige tuin (binnenplaats) die top verzorgd en bijgehouden wordt. Personeel staat in alles voor je klaar. Ontbijt kan Srilankaans of op verzoek Engels. Er wordt met alles rekening gehouden. Ook kan je aangeven dat je wilt lunchen of dineren en ook dit wordt in de puntjes geregeld door de beheerders. Personeel kan ook taxi (vervoer) of safari voor je regelen. Locatie, op loop afstand van centrum/winkels. Het meer kan je makkelijk met een tuktuk bereiken (zn 7min)

Fabulous location base for trips out (not just Yala). Big comfy bed, amazing bathroom with hot powerful shower. The most amazing Sri Lankan food freshly prepared, so tasty, and plenty of flavours. Staff can’t do enough for you and are happy to arrange trips out - Gamini was superb tuk tuk driver and guide. A lovely family feel and you will be totally spoilt!

Nothing. Note there is no bar or pool and only 2 rooms - this is for those who want to experience genuine Sri Lankan hospitality.

Wow!!!! Eine echte Entdeckung! Die Zimmer sind geräumig und schön - Badezimmer sehr grosszügig. Alles SEHR SEHR sauber!!! Indigne (falls falsch geschrieben, entschuldige ich mich) und seine Frau machen den Aufenthalt zu etwas ganz Besonderem. Das Abendessen und Frühstück waren hervorragend- unglaublich, wieviel Mühe er sich gab!! Soooo fein. Die Lage ist zentral (ein paar Gehminuten ins Zentrum), aber sehr ruhig. Ganz herzlichen Dank für alles!!!!

Absolut nichts.

La habitación es perfecta, amplia, nueva y súper cómoda.

Lo único que están construyendo el complejo y los servicios no están funcionando aún al 100%, pero el personal estuvo pendiente en todo momento de lo que necesitábamos y se adaptaron a los horarios que le pedimos

The host was incredibly friendly and helpful, making us feel welcome from the very first moment. Everything was delicious! A special mention goes to the breakfast—the rice pudding with fresh fruit and honey was outstanding. The accommodation is super modern and was spotlessly clean throughout our stay. Perfectly located in the center, so everything was within easy reach.

Nothing to complain about!

Beautiful modern, exceptionally clean facilities, welcoming and helpful manager and staff and fantastic food served in a lovely outdoor dining area.

Great hotel with great host and food. We arrived very late yet he waited for us and provided some late night fruits for us to settle in before our early morning safari in a couple hours. The room itself had everything we needed and was very clean and spacious. Water pressure in the shower was excellent. Knowing our safari plans, he prepared sandwiches with some fruits to go for our breakfast as well as plenty of water in a cooler. He also asked us for our lunch preference before leaving and made us a beautiful and delicious homemade Sri Lankan meal as part of his restaurant on the property. Prices were very reasonable. Communication was great before and during our stay. Our host was hospitable, accommodating and went way above and beyond for us for the short time we were there. I'd recommend anyone interested in the safari to work with him and his team. They're kind, professional, and excellent. Our safari driver was excellent. We were lucky to have been arranged with him via our host at Ariya Tissa. The driver was calm and extremely experienced and knowledgable of the park animals and terrain. At the beginning, we were told of the expectations that there would be low chance of seeing leopards because of our timing (moon phases, month). However, he did outline his plan at the entrance of the park which ran differently than other safaris. Among many safari trucks that morning, we were one of the very few trucks that saw leopards. Luck obviously plays a large part, but we believe our driver best prepared us for the opportunity to spot them. By the time many other trucks came by, it had already left. Highly recommend him.

Indica was very nice and extremely helpful. He cooked a great rice porridge for breakfast . The young girl who helped was learning English with us and was delightful too. We went on a safari with Nasinka which was amazing. He drove well and had very good knowledge of the animals and birds , provided a delicious lunch and managed to spot 3 leopards for us

Las instalaciones som modernas y están muy bien cuidadas . Hay mucho silencio y calidad en el entorno . El host Indika fue espectacular , se encargó de q que estuviéramos a gusto y nos cocinó cada día delicioso. Muy recomendado .

Our stay at Ariya Tissa was absolutely wonderful. Everything was just great from the first moment. The host, Indika, is incredibly kind, caring, and welcoming. He really did everything to make our stay perfect and fulfilled every wish with a smile. He also has a very good understanding of Western standards and expectations, which made us feel especially comfortable and relaxed. The room was very large and extremely clean. The bed was super comfortable, and the bathroom was a real highlight. The shower was spacious with great water pressure – perfect after a long safari day. Even though we were picked up for our safari at 4:30 am, Indika still prepared a take-away breakfast for us, which we truly appreciated. After the safari, we were welcomed with a homemade yogurt with fresh fruits from his own garden, prepared with so much love – a really special touch. The location is also excellent. It is a perfect starting point for safaris in Yala National Park, as both the main entrance and the Katagamuwa entrance are easily reachable. We visited both on different days, which was very convenient. We would 100% stay here again and can fully recommend Ariya Tissa to anyone visiting the area. An amazing place with an even more amazing host!

Very large room in a peaceful place. The food was super good too.

The most amazing food we have eaten all trip was here!

Sehr sehr nette Gastgeber! TOP Unterkunft! Sehr schönes Badezimmer!

Sehr netter Gastgeber, tolles Frühstück. Etwas abgelegen, wir konnten hier für unsere Yala Safari abgeholt werden.

Gestore molto simpatico e professionale, attentissimo al cliente e sempre pronto ad aiutare. La struttura si trova in una zona silenziosa e tranquilla, ottima come base per il safari allo Yala park. La camera era spaziosa e pulitissima, bagno enorme con una bella doccia. Assolutamente consigliato

Zimmer war sehr sauber und modern

TODO ES INMEJORABLE. La persona que lleva el alojamiento es atento, amable y súper servicial y resolutivo. Además, nos preparó una cena y un almuerzo extra (no estaba incluido en el precio de la habitación) que fue la mejor comida típica de Sri Lanka que hemos probado. Las habitaciones, impolutas, espaciosas y cómodas. Sin duda, volveríamos a este lugar con los ojos cerrados.

Well located, ideal if planning on a safari trip and a short walk into town for food. very friendly and attentive staff. He gave lots of info about the area, with a bit of history, excellent English! The breakfast was amazing! Freshly cooked, ingredients from his own garden, and a full explanation as to how to eat it too, definitely appreciated. The room was spacious and clean. The bed large and comfortable, not to mention hot (and I mean hot, not just tepid!) water in the shower. Great, hence the 10/10!

Everything was great, can’t fault it!

Das Frühstück war sehr lecker und das gesamte Personal war äusserst freundlich und bemüht. Der Besitzer hat mir von Zuhause einen Schnapps geholt:-)!

Unsere Schuhe wurden aus dem Zimmer genommen und rausgestellt ohne unser Wissen. Sie sind nicht schuhfreundlich..haha

Beautiful, big modern, clean room and a hot shower with good pressure. The hosts were nice and friendly. The food (dinner, breakfast) here is a real highlight, made with a lot of attention to detail, quality ingredients and delicious.

The man in charge cooked for us, it’s a small property with only two rooms. We were lucky enough to be alone there and the man cooked the best food ever. He is so sweet and the following day he let us have breakfast (he asked what we wanted and offered so tasty lankan breakie, when we came back from the safari, also had a shower. Everything was Amazing, thank you so much. You offered the best service possible. Congrats!

Der Aufenthalt in dem Gasthaus war einwandfrei. Der Gastgeber war sehr herzlich und engagiert. Das Zimmer war extrem sauber und sehr gut ausgestattet. Die Unterkunft liegt für viele Anbieter einer Safari im Abholgebiet. Für die Safari gab es auch Frühstück zum Mitnehmen. Wir können den Aufenthalt und das Essen in der Unterkunft (insbesondere das Chicken Curry) definitiv weiterempfehlen.

Personal muy amable. Nos prepararon el desayuno por la madrugada para que pudiéramos llevárnoslo al safari. Comimos allí y estaba riquísimo. Habitación y cama enormes y espaciosas.

Muchos mosquitos en el jardín. Se escuchan animales por la noche. El camino para acceder es un poco complicado andando.

The nicest accomodation of our entire stay in Sri Lanka. Very large, clean and comfortable rooms. Indika was a perfect host. who prepared us a fantastic dinner.

The hotel staff is AMAZING! The best person I have met in Sri Lanka. He prepared our breakfast at 3:30am before our safari and he made us feel extremely welcomed. The room was very clean and spacious and the staff was really taking care of the property and us in the best possible way.

Heel fijn verblijf gehad bij het rustig gelegen Ariya Tissa. De kamer was erg ruim en het was er bijzonder schoon. De kamer voldeed daarmee helemaal aan onze verwachtingen, en zo schoon zijn we het tijdens onze 3 weken reis in Sri Lanka niet eerder tegengekomen! Verder is met name de gastvrijheid van Indika en Kanchana uitzonderlijk. Het zijn ontzettend lieve mensen die alles voor je over hebben! Ik raad aan om (zo veel mogelijk!) in het restaurant te eten, waar Indika en Kanchana de heerlijkste gerechten bereiden. We hebben tijdens onze reis door Sri Lanka nergens zo lekker gegeten als hier. Alles is heel vers en smaakvol. Verder hebben ze ervoor gezorgd dat we een ethisch verantwoorde safari in Yala National Park hebben kunnen doen (ook nog eens geluk dat we 3 luipaarden hebben kunnen zien). Indika had zelfs voor vroeg in de ochtend (lees: 04:30) een heerlijke ontbijt en lunch pakket voor ons gemaakt, die we in het park hebben gegeten. We raden iedereen aan om hier te verblijven! Als het kon waren we langer gebleven, wat een fijne plek met fijne mensen!! 10/10 ⭐️

Helaas maar 1 nachtje hier kunnen verblijven vanwege onze vaste reisplanning. Voor ons was het niet belangrijk, maar mocht je een levendige buurt willen weet dan dat dit hotel in een rustige zijstraat staat.

Die Gastgeber war super nett und sehr zuvorkommend. Wir haben uns sehr sehr wohl gefühlt und es blieben keine Wünsche offen. Das Essen, dass der Gastgeber immer zubereitet hat war super lecker und frisch.

Spacious and very clean room. Perfect for if visiting Yala. The best part of this property was Indika and his wonderful family. They were so kind, attentive and truly cooked some of the best food I have ever tried. So fresh. We felt completely at home and cared for. Such a memorable visit and I will recommend this place to any friends in the future, knowing they will love it. Indika deserves more recognition for his food, because it really is special, as is he. I hope if you are reading this review, you take my word and give it a try 🥰

Nothing

The property was clean, nice, and new.

The owner was super nice — always happy to help and really made our stay more enjoyable.

Das Zimmer war außergewöhnlich schön, sauber und groß. Das Bad war fantastisch. Beim Beziehen des Zimmers wurde sogar eine Kerze mit Duftöl angezündet, wodurch es herrlich roch. Aber auch sonst war es im Bad nie mufflig, wie sonst oft in Sri Lanka. Das Zimmer und die Unterkunft sehen wirklich genau aus wie auf den Bildern. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt. Auch weil das Personal super freundlich war. Der Besitzer hat für uns einen Abend gekocht - ganz frisch und vermutlich das beste Essen, das wir in Sri Lanka hatten - SOOOO lecker. Und wir bekamen Wasserbüffel Joghurt zum Probieren. Zum Frühstück gab's für uns frischen Milchreis mit Banane - grandios. Wir haben übers Hotel auch die Safari gebucht. Die war auch toll. Wir hatten Glück und haben einen Leoparden gesehen. Nach der Tour hat sich der Hotelbesitzer nochmal versichert, ob die Tour gut war. Das WLAN war zuerst nicht so gut. Doch auch danach hat sich der Besitzer bei uns erkundigt und uns einen anderes WLAN gegeben, das super funktionierte.

-

Indika und seine Frau machen den Aufenthalt durch ihrer liebevolle Art und dem Auge fürs Detail zu einem tollen Erlebnis. Man fühlt sich als wäre man ein Teil der Familie. Die Sauberkeit ist wirklich einmalig. Indika teilt gerne sein Wissen, wir haben uns lange mit ihm unterhalten. Das selbstgemachte Essen ist ein Hochgenuss, alleine wegen den Mahlzeiten würden wir wieder kommen

Alles top

El alojamiento es muuuy amplio y muy comodo, es moderno. La ducha es la mejor de las que hemos tenido hasta el momento en sri lanka. El personal muy atento y amable. El lugar tranquilo y selvático. Nos hicieron cena a medida lo cual es de valorar, estaba muy rico todo.

Contratamos un safari de medio dia por lo que nos prepararon el desayuno para llevar, algo escueto aunque bueno.

Das Zimmer war mega sauber und modern. Die ganze Atmosphäre in der Unterkunft war einzigartig und man wurde extrem herzlich empfangen. Das Abendessen war das mit Abstand beste Curry, das ich in Sri Lanka gegessen habe. Also wenn ihr da schläft, unbedingt im Hotel essen! Und wir haben von der Unterkunft einen Abendspaziergang zu den 20000 Flughunden (sie fliegen in der Dämmerung alle los) gemacht. Mega schöne Umgebung voller Palmen, Pfaue und Wasserbüffel.

This place truly exceeds the usual standards in Sri Lanka. All common areas and rooms were perfectly clean, and the water pressure was excellent. The meals were delicious — they offered both Western style breakfasts and authentic local dishes. The staff were welcoming and genuinely kind. The hotel also arranged a full-day safari for us, and we highly recommend Nissanka, our driver. He’s very experienced with the park roads and knows exactly how to find rare animals. Thanks to him, we saw two leopards and a tusker elephant — an unforgettable experience!

La habitación es muy grande y está impecable. El dueño es muy cuidadoso y detallista. El desayuno estaba buenísimo, el mejor de todo el viaje. Los huevos revueltos estaban deliciosos y el pan era de verdad, no pan de molde.

Si vas al pueblo de noche es mejor volver en tuk tuk, porque no hay luz en la carretera

Een hele vriendelijke man. Het meest hygiënische verblijf tot nu toe. Erg aangenaam verblijf gehad, wij zijn 1 nacht gebleven. De maaltijden waren vers gemaakt waardoor je vooraf kon zeggen wat je wou eten zodat hij de verse producten kon halen om te koken.

Absolut zu empfehlen, es ist extrem sauber und der Besitzer und seine Frau sind unglaublich freundliche, liebenswerte und sehr zuvorkommende Gastgeber! Wir waren leider nur für eine Nacht im Ariya Tissa, zwecks einer Safari im Yala, haben uns aber ab dem Zeitpunkt der Ankunft sehr wohl gefühlt. Die Zimmer sind modern eingerichtet und das Bad ist sehr neu. Das Frühstück ist super lecker und wurde für uns frisch zubereitet. Empfehlung: Das vegetarische Curry zum Dinner! Wir haben vor unserer Safari das Abendessen bestellt und es wurde an diesem Abend nur für uns frisch gekocht. Es war das beste Curry auf unserer gesamten Sri Lanka Reise! Vielen herzlichen Dank für den tollen Aufenthalt bei euch! Wir können es nur wärmstens empfehlen!

Die Strasse zur Unterkunft ist nicht im besten Zustand, dafür kann die Unterkunft aber nichts.

La atención y la calidez recibidas Una cena fantástica.

Very nice host, he really loves welcoming you. We did the full day safari and were very happy with it. A good guide and a delicious lunch at the beach. Cleaneliness and bathroom is outstanding for Sri Lankan standards. We would love to stay here again.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had a wonderful stay at Ariya Tirissa in Yala! Everything was spotlessly clean, beautifully designed, and very spacious. The bathroom was fantastic – modern and well maintained. The staff were extremely friendly and welcoming, making us feel right at home. We can highly recommend this place and will definitely come back on our next trip to Sri Lanka!

Sehr zuvorkommender Gastgeber. Abendessen war sehr gut.

La estancia ha sido increíble. Todo el personal es majísimo y muy servicial. La habitación es muy grande y está todo muy limpio. La cena es espectacular, si te alojas te recomendamos que cenes en el alojamiento. Volveríamos a repetir estancia sin dudarlo.

El trato del personal. Lo recomiendo 100x100. Además contratamos el Safari y todo fue perfecto. Indika el encargado que trato con nosotros nos ayudó en todo, todo facilidades. Estaremos siempre agradecidos. 👍🏻

La calle para ir a la ciudad estaba poco iluminada, algo que es normal en la zona.

De kamer was mooi en strak. Er was veel oog voor detail en het bed was heel comfortabel. Badkamer nieuw en een fantastische douche. De gehele tuin was ook mooi en goed over nagedacht. De eigenaar was heel vriendelijk en is heel flexibel geweest om zich aan te passen aan onze planning, top bestemming!

De kamer was erg groot en modern ingericht, alles was heel nieuw. De badkamer zag er prachtig uit en van alle gemakken voorzien. Het ontbijt was heerlijk en ook het avondeten was met zorg bereid. Het was een van de lekkerste curry's die we in Sri Lanka gegeten hebben.

Je moest je schoenen buiten de kamer zetten. We hoorden van onze chauffeur dat de eigenaar van het hotel hem onvriendelijk bejegende, omdat hij zijn schoenen niet had uitgedaan, terwijl dat nergens vermeld stond. Dat vonden we niet prettig, want onze chauffeur was zo'n fijne man.

Room was very spacious and comfortable, exactly as the pictures show. Host was very welcoming, goes out of the way to ensure a comfortable stay. Highly recommend.

Todo espectacular. La comida muy recomendable y especial. Nos ayudaron en todo.

Nos recibieron con un té con hielo de bienvenida muy bueno. Todo muy muy limpio y gente muy amable y servicial. Nos consiguió unas bicis para dar un paseo en el atardecer. Nos preparó una cena que es la mejor que hemos probado en Sri Lanka, cuidando el máximo detalle y siempre con una sonrisa. Por la mañana nos preparó en desayuno a las 5:00am para llevárnoslo de safari. En resumen 10 de 10!

Una delle migliori strutture della mia vacanza in Sri Lanka. Consiglio fortemente di soggiornare qui soprattutto per la calda accoglienza del proprietario e di sua moglie che ti fanno sentire a casa. La cosa più bella è sicuramente la cucina, tutti i piatti del menu sono da provare e lo chef/proprietario accoglierà tutte le vostre esigenze. Grazie grazie grazie!!
