“The safari tour is really good and the guide was excellent.”

“Good location for safari pick up and to get bus Upgraded room which was appreciated Lots of noise at night, possibly from lizards or something else landing on roof Mosquito net was bit tight around bed, making it difficult to get in and out without pulling it off completely Good value stay - can't be beaten Not much English spoken and unfortunately we do not speak Sinhalese, making communication limited” Read more

“Clean, comfy bed, the AC was a nice surprise as well😉 We only stayed one night and did the safari with them in the morning. We were the second jeep to enter the park and had quite an adventure. No leopards, unfortunately, but our driver / guide was amazing at spotting all the other animals! After the safari we could use the room for a couple of more hours to shower and pack, which was really considerate. ” Read more

“The hostel is close to bus station and at main road, but since located in the back of courtyard is quiet and rather no noise from the main street. Basic rooms, but AC working properly, mosquito net provided. The owner is helpfull and explaining aspects of Yala safari. We booked with him half day safari tour (but saying trully it is possible to find 10% cheaper at other agencies ). We saw 2 leopards, one bear, elephants and other animals. Please note it is worth to go with Japaneese car (Toyota or Mitsubishi) since Indian (Mahindra) are much more noisy” Read more

“We arrived early and were shown a choice of two rooms, one at the main reception and another out the back. We chose the reception room and were very happy with our choice. The aircon and fan both worked well and the shower facilities sufficed. The best thing was being able to get out of bed only a few minutes before our Jeep was due to depart for our half day safari, as it was parked out the front! At 4am this means a lot! It was also very convenient being able to leave everything in the room and be given time to freshen up before checking out after the safari. As for the Safari, don’t chose anyone else! Yala Wild Safaris are number 1. ” Read more
