Reviewed Aug 24, 2025El personal era muy amable, nos ayudaron y nos trataron genial. La habitación era exactamente como en las fotos y muy grande y espaciosa.
La ubicación es un poco alejada del centro para ir andando, pero en nuesto caso hicimos todos los desplazamientos en coche.

Reviewed Aug 21, 2025De meiden waren heel hulpvaardig en proberen heel hard om het naar je zin te maken. We konden snel bij ze terecht na de boeking.
De kamer en badkamer waren niet schoon, en de badkamer was bovendien verouderd en gewoon smerig. De safari werd via het hotel geregeld en de hotelmanager was tevens onze chauffeur/gids. Helaas sprak hij nauwelijks Engels, terwijl dit vooraf wel was toegezegd. Hierdoor kregen we geen uitleg, terwijl we zagen dat andere gidsen dit wel deden. Bovendien vroeg hij direct bij vertrek voor de safari om het geld, zonder zich eerst voor te stellen. De lunch tijdens de safari was gelukkig goed verzorgd.

Reviewed Jun 18, 2025It was an amazing stay. The hosts are two super nice sisters, my room was very clean (as a Turkish person, very important piece for me, my Turkish fellows will understand me:D) it was a huge room with a very comfy bed, THE VIEW WAS SO NICE, the hosts welcomed me with watermelon juice which I find very sweet. I wouldn’t search any other place to stay if I ever come back to Tissamaharama. I highly recommend.

Reviewed Jan 31, 2025It is a good location for the yala safari and they can organise it for you (we organised our own). The room is very cheap but I wouldn’t stay here again. It was not clean, we didn’t have water in the early morning (before our safari). Overall I was happy that I could leave.

Reviewed Oct 19, 2024I had an incredible stay at this hotel in Yala! The location is perfect for anyone wanting to explore Yala National Park, as it’s just a short drive away. The rooms were clean, spacious, and well-decorated, providing a very comfortable and relaxing atmosphere. The staff went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed, always greeting me with a smile. One of the highlights was the guided safari tour organized by the hotel, it was well-coordinated and offered a fantastic wildlife experience. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Yala for its exceptional service, great facilities, and convenient location
