The air conditioning worked well to help combat the humidity and heat. There were plenty of light options, side lights and the overhead light which is nice. The bed was decently comfortable not too hard. I appreciated the drying rack in the room to dry clothes.

The place and location was stunning. Loved the fact is was surrounded with local houses with buffalo’s roaming in the back. Loved the little peer overlooking the lake!

The location is excellent and the resort is real value for money . The food was excellent . The rooms were nice . The toiletries in the bathrooms needs to improve . The bathroom needs exhaust fans as it can get quite stuffy . The resort manager Mr Upal is a nice friendly bloke and is exceptional in his service . Overall a very pleasant experience .

This is a great location to stay if you want to visit the national parks and My Village will organise safaris to the four parks in the area either a half or full day. The local town is not a tourist town but it's great to wander around looking in the local shops.

We were there the first time for safari. We had a tour to the Buddha by the sea…amazing.
This time we were passing through on our way to Ella. We ate at Red Pizza which was just as good second time round.

Was in Tissamaharama for Yala Safari, had booked the early morning Safari.
Disappointed with the Safari as there were very few animals except.for.peacocks and spotted dear.
Later into the ride our jeep driver and guide revealed we had entered through block 5 of the Safari and most the animals(Leopard, Bears) mostly are sighted in block 1 and 2.
Block 1 and 2 were closed that day, maybe just our luck.
So I guess check, with the Safari organizer before booking your safari as it quite expensive.
Basically disappointed ☹️

Very good base for safari to Yala or Bundala parks.
Very good base for safari to Yala or Bundala parks. I' went to Bundala as I've never been to park with big wetlands and I think it was a great choice. We've seen numerous types of birds, lizards, monkeys, jackals, mangooses, bufallos, crocodiles and also few elephants😊
I didn't stay in center of Tissa but still was able to find nice restaurants, like Smoky Kitchen (recommended).

Mithila was a perfect host who couldn’t do enough for us. The room was impeccably clean and very big. The bathroom was also big and had a great shower. We had a large balcony area too which was good to sit out on. Mithila organised our safari and also ordered us dinner from a local restaurant, she also arranged our transport to our next hotel. Mithila made us feel so welcome and the room was beyond expectations. Our favourite stay in Sri Lanka! Thank you Mithila! Would recommend to everyone looking to stay in the area.
Amazing ....village mango resort .beautiful and clean hotel.peaceful location , a great place to stay for a trip to yala national park ( about 30 min drive ). Channa was the kindest host and very friendly.he arranged good yala safari tour its a fair price. See the 2 leopards and lot of elephants,crocodile . He arrange taxy after safari go to ella for reasonable price. Breakfast was delicious . Dinner rice and curry very testy.thank you and i highly recommend village mango resort ......😍
The rooms are incredibly cozy, and the air conditioning works like a charm, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The staff, particularly the young man working at the hotel, was incredibly helpful and attentive to all our needs. We were grateful for their assistance throughout our stay. Additionally, the hotel went above and beyond by arranging a safari for us, adding an extra layer of adventure to our trip. A big thank you to everyone involved for making our stay truly memorable.
Great hotel with good and very helpful team. There was an issue with the pool during our stay related to the current situation in Sri Lanka. We were informed beforehand sufficiently so there were no surprises and we could still enjoy a swim.
Even though we booked our Yala National Park safari separately from the hotel, everything went without a hitch. A breakfast was prepared and ready for us and the night guard was very helpful. A definite recommendation from us.
Sanjeewa and his wife are absolutely wonderful and incredibly loving hosts. The rooms are clean, spacious, and have a really comfy bed. The view of the rice fields is great. The Sri Lankan food they serve is truly delicious. If you plan to do the safari in Yala, book through him. He has an excellent driver with a great price. I would highly recommend this place to stay in Tissamaharama, especially if you want to visit Yala National Park. Thanks for the great stay!
Lovely family run hotel serving tasty homemade food. Rooms are clean and comfortable. You can book a safari directly through the hotel. Our Safari driver Saje was brilliant he made a huge effort all day to find leopards and right at the end of the day we had a fantastic sighting of two! His off roading skills are also second to none. It's worth noting if you would like the Sri Lankan breakfast then you need to order the night before
Very beautiful location facing rice fields. Nice room, essentially a whole floor of a nice wooden building. Excellent breakfast. Very kind owner: he organized for us a safari in Yala national park, he drove us to the bus station upon departure, and he insisted I visit the two beautiful, very old, little known temples in the eastern part of Tissamaharama.
The best hotel we stayed in Sri Lanka. Everything was just perfect: beautifully decorated, spacious and sparkling clean villa. The pool area is well maintained. Hosts and staff are very friendly and caring. They arranged for us a barbecue dinner near the bonfire, the atmosphere was fantastic. We really enjoyed our stay and can’t recommend better!
We loved everything about the Blue Turtle, apart from doing the Yala safari we didn’t leave the hotel. Our room was really nice, had a lovely balcony looking out over the pool, the garden is lush and the pool spotless. It was very quiet when we were there but it was still ok. We had some lovely food and the best Sri Lankan breakfast.
Sri Lanka is not only about nature and ocean, it’s so much about people!
Welcoming and friendly gentleman who is taking care of hotel and garden made our stay comfy and chill.
He also provides us safari service and even gave us lunch boxes with delicious breakfast, that was so sweet ☺️
Thanks for all your care and hospitality !
Wonderful place! Very kind staff and the room was by far the cleanest I’ve stayed in in Sri Lanka. In addition to arranging our safari They also arranged pickup from Mirissa Beach for a very reasonable price and our driver was AMAZING. His name was Sanjay. Request him if needing pickup!
Hotel employees were very nice and vey friendly and in particular Sashi and Shelo with their smiles and friendly discussions. Being the first Tunisian family who visited this hotel, I will strongly recommend it for friends and families.
Very nice and clean hotel. Friendly and helpful staff. They also served good Sri Lankan breakfast and had food available. When leaving, they drove us to the bus station which was very nice of them. Highly recommend this place.
Hotel Chaarya is one of the best hotels if you visit down south of Sri Lanka. The rooms were very clean, and the staff was amazing. Thank you for your hospitality! Surely recommend it.
Lovely. It’s a beautiful hotel and probably the cleanest hotel I stayed at in Sri Lanka. The hotel arranged our safari- I was happy with the driver. We had excellent animal sightings.
Nice, family run guest house. They served nice Sri Lankan food. We got there very late evening but that was no problem and we got a welcome drink King Coconut.
The place was bordering to the Yodawewa historical tank in Sri Lanka. The staff was very friendly and helpful. The facilities were very clean and comfortable.
Spacious and clean rooms. We have stayed in hotels and airbnbs during our 10 day trip in Sri Lanka and this is easily the best accommodation we have had.
We received excellent service during our stay. Everyone was friendly and kind. We’d like to come back here for the next trip to Sri Lanka in the future!
