Everything was excellent, from the facilities to the restaurant. The pool water also seemed to be properly filtered, and none of us—including the children—had any stomach issues. The Ayurvedic spa massage was also excellent. We had a wonderful experience with both the beach walk and the safari tour. We were lucky enough to see elephants, though the leopard didn’t make an appearance. Even so, we truly appreciated how the ranger kept searching deep into the park until the very end. The dishes prepared by the head chef, who kindly came to greet us at our table on the first night, were absolutely delicious! For breakfast, I had GM Sri Lanka every single day. It’s a hotel I would definitely love to visit again. Thank you so much! The clean-up activity in the national park was also a really enjoyable experience.

The staff were amazing and met all of our needs. They were very friendly and knowledgable about the area. The food was outstanding and gave us a choice each day on what we would like. It was very refreshing to not have wifi and be able to unwind and take in the amazing scenior and be able to listen to the nature. The room was so spacious and decorated beautifully. Jerome organised our private safari which was great as we had nothing to do only turn up at the time organised. We couldnt have asked for any more. 5 star

Nestled within the breathtaking landscapes of Yala National Park, our stay at this luxurious hotel surpassed all expectations. The rooms exuded style and comfort, providing a serene sanctuary amidst the wilderness. Each detail was meticulously crafted, offering a perfect blend of modern amenities and rustic charm. The culinary experience was nothing short of exceptional, with every meal earning a perfect 10/10. However, what truly set this hotel apart was its remarkable staff. Their warmth and hospitality knew no bounds, ensuring that every aspect of our stay was seamless and memorable. Their genuine kindness and eagerness to assist added an extra layer of joy to our safari adventure.

First Appu, he and his family will take care of you, I had read reviews about his food, don't pay attention... it is better than his reviews, he is the best cook in Sri Lanka, his spicy eggplants are excellent! And all his food! Thank you for taking care of us. Thanks also to the Safari driver, he made our dream of seeing Leopards come true, I recommend doing the Safari with the Hotel service, his driver is excellent! (sorry, I don't remember the name). Finally, Navin, the owner of the hotel, thank you for taking care of every detail! Our stay has been excellent! You have a great Hotel and your team is excellent!

Lovely hotel with a good room and nice swimming pool. Staff were really friendly and helpful when I cut my leg and got plasters for her. The restaurant manager, Samphah, ensured that we had a fabulous Sri Lankan curry for dinner. The location was convenient to access Yala NP. We went on an early Safari in Yala NP and they supplied a really nice packed breakfast. Paid by credit card with no charges.

Rooms are very comfortable, spacious, light and furnished with an eye for detail (fi shower head designed as a small waterfall). We loved all these small details, which you also find at the swimming pool! Our driver dropped us at the intersection with the main road, where the accomodation picked us up for the last 2km (5minutes). No problem at all. Very good kitchen. Very attentive staff. Swimming pool was a plus because of the hot wheather. Monkeys on the roof were a plus as well :-). Nice place, don't hesitate!
