This is a very comfortable hotel and the family who runs it is lovely! They took me to see bats flying at sunset and cooked incredible meals. I also did the full day safari - my guide was extremely knowledgeable and respectful of the animals’ environment.

The host was very nice and helpful. We even got two small evening safaris and he knows quite a lot about the local fauna. We also took the safaris the were arranged for us so we didn't need to organize ourselves!

Black Panther is the reason I like to stay in well run family hotels. Exceptional service! I’m not exaggerating. We stayed at a 5star hotel in Ella prior for 2nights and the service provided by the owner Nalin is comparable or better as he will personally cater to your needs as requested. The place is clean, the room we stayed in was a good size, had a clean comfortable bed, shower has hot water, good air conditioning kept room at perfect temp, and strong WiFi throughout the whole property. Food prepared by Nalin and his wife is delicious. Also the hotel is located close to Debarawewa lake which is full of birds and saw several crocodiles along the edge of the lake. Tissa lake with even more birds and fruit bats is a short tuk tuk ride away which the host can arrange. Great communication via Whatsup before arrival. Host can arrange transportation from Ella or Mirissa for a fair price as well.

Randy and his family are great people, their place is amazing, in the middle of nowhere but with all the needed facilities. It has been a great experience to have dinner in their accommodation and we had the opportunity to discover more about their village thanks to Randy’s guided tour. We definitely recommend this place!!

Super clean, amazing and very attentive owner and staff and gorgeous view of the lake. The owner picked us up from the bus stop and showed us around the lakes. He is so knowledgeable about all the fauna and takes time to tell you about everything. We saw all kinds of birds, crocodiles, bats and the water buffalo. The owner showed us interesting places related to local culture and it was fascinating. The food and service were both exceptional. We did the safari tour and it was great but my favorite part of the trip was the Tissa tour by the hotel owner. Don’t miss it!

    Tissamaharama is a fantastic base for anyone looking to explore the natural beauty and rich culture of southern Sri Lanka. It's perfectly located for Yala National Park safaris, offering easy access to incredible wildlife encounters. Beyond the safaris, the town itself has a calm, local vibe with beautiful lakes and ancient temples to discover. You'll find plenty of local restaurants and shops, making it easy to enjoy authentic Sri Lankan experiences. It's a great spot for both adventure and relaxation, and I highly recommend spending some time here!

    The owner of Serenity lake advices us to visit Yala safari, Sithul pawwa magul viharaya and sithul pawwa a super history with beautiful scenery, which we did and we're very grateful for his advice. We returned to the serenity lake to have lunch before heading off. Requested for a village kind of lunch with the local veggies and it was served on a lotus leaf... The most delicious meal it was. We had lunch at Reds and at the Serenity 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.

    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 ☹️

    The pool made everyone happy. It is quite spacious, has deep parts and overlooks the beautiful lake scenery. Thanks for sun-beds and pool towels, that is thoughtful. The room is spacious and has comfy beds. This was the only hotel during our trip in Sri Lanka to provide cribs for little ones. I would also like to compliment the shower located under the stars with a net protecting from insects. I didn’t experience any problems with hot shower, there was a plenty of hot water. The hotel helps to arrange safari in Yala.

    This is a budget hotel that is such good value. The staff were so friendly, we felt so at home. The food is amazing, full Sri Lankan breakfast and lovely dinner which we had both nights of our stay. The pool area is very nice. This hotel is focussed on the safari experience. We booked through the hotel, and were provided with a breakfast and lunch. A really full day. Tissimahara is a short Tuk Tuk ride away although we didn’t have time to visit, so not sure what there would be to experience there.

    Our best stay in Sri Lanka! From the moment we arrived the staff were so helpful. We were able to book our safari through them to Yala. The safari was so good as the driver made sure we got to see Leopards and many other animals. We also got given a lovely takeaway breakfast from the hotel as we had to leave very early. The hotel and room were both Safari/Sri Lankan style with a modern twist. The pool area is very clean and stylish. Really enjoyed our stay!

    Laa Safari Hotel is one of the best places we have stayed in Sri Lanka. The rooms were very clean and the staff were very kind. They arranged their own jeep for us to go on safari. It was a very good safari. The driver was very skilled. We could see many animals. We were dropped off at the bus stop free of charge after the safari. highly recommended
