🌾 Warm Hospitality Like No Other! I’ve rarely been welcomed so warmly in a hotel — from the moment we arrived at Farm Villa Resort, we felt right at home. The staff were incredibly friendly and professional, making our stay truly special. 🛏️ Comfort Meets Elegance Our room was spacious with exquisite linen and spotless amenities. We enjoyed a delicious and generous breakfast that set the tone for each day. 📍 Perfect Location Located close to Kataragama Devalaya and Kiri Vehera, it’s ideal for pilgrims and explorers alike. A short drive took us to the Yala Sanctuary and the sacred Situlpawwa Rock Temple. 🦁 Yala Safari Adventure The team helped us arrange an unforgettable Yala Safari tour, where we spotted wild elephants, leopards, and colorful birdlife — a highlight of our trip! 🌅 Evening Paddy Walk & Nature Bliss Our evenings were magical — a walk through the golden paddy fields, listening to tranquil nature sounds under a glowing sky. Pure serenity. 💚 Without a doubt, if I visit Kataragama again, Farm Villa Resort will be my #1 choice. Highly recommended for anyone seeking peace, comfort, and adventure!

In short, the place was great 👍. The location was great (in a nice quiet area but still close to the city), the room was clean, the beds were comfy and the staff was very attentive. We had an issue with one of the door locks and they promptly offered us another room. Breakfast was great as well. Really enjoyed our stay, and will definitely come back.

    Kataragama itself is a temple town and that’s pretty much it. Other than that it’s a jumping off point for safari in yala and kumana. One day is more than enough for cultural/religious aspects. The Perahara (pageant) in July is fantastic. Be warned that it may not start till midnight and may need pre booked tickets. Also watch out for pickpockets in crowded areas around this time. The country side and the rural life as well as the wildlife is fantastic and authentic. Quite hot and sunny year round but dec to feb is more comfortable.

    Buttala is a beautiful little city close to the northern part of Yala National Park. If you pass by (maybe on your way to/from the east coast), stop here and enjoy a couple of nights in the local homestays (we can fully recommend Yala Avian Eye Safari!!). Safaris from here are calm and you can enjoy the northern part without hundreds of other jeeps.
