It was the best place during my trip. The room was very clean, the mattress was comfortable. We got 5 star service here. Nalin was very kind and nice, prepared everything I asked for, hot water for shower, fruit and blanket. He also brought us to see sunrise, visit 4 beautiful lakes and local temples, and introduced birds. He has very rich bird knowledge. We even saw swimming crocodile in a lake! His wife cooks so well! We had super delicious homemade dinner. I really love it! Nalin also helped us book a safari, and we saw leopard, bear, and many other animals.

Featuring a garden, terrace and views of garden, Udara Guest - Yala Safari is located in Yala, 1.5 km from Kirinda Beach. This villa provides free private parking, a 24-hour front desk and free WiFi. The accommodation offers full-day security, room service and currency exchange for guests. I really enjoy this stay and especially the host. Udara was so helpful with everything. He arranged an incredible dinner for us (his mother cooked) and the breakfast was also awesome. He also played some UNO almost until midnight with us and we talked a lot about stuff in Sri Lanka and Yala especially. The vila is big and beautiful, the rooms are completely soundproof (the massive doors help a lot). Udara also hosts three snakes in a tree in the garden and they are so small and beautiful, and also harmless. He also went with us to a temple nearby and explained the history of it. Thank you for having us!

Located 6.6 km from Tissa Wewa, Ranakeliya Lodge - Yala provides accommodation with a garden, a terrace and room service for your convenience. The lodge features both WiFi and private parking free of charge. We loved our stay at the lodge. The people working there are so nice and sleeping in a tent was a great way to set the tone for our safari to Yala the next day! We had a rice & curry prepared by the lodge for dinner and it was delicious! One of the best rice & curry we had during our 3 weeks in Sri Lanka!

Featuring air-conditioned accommodation with a private pool, mountain view and a balcony, O2 Villas Yala is located in Yala. This 5-star villa offers a 24-hour front desk and full-day security. There is an outdoor fireplace and guests can make use of free WiFi, free private parking and an electric vehicle charging station. Hands down our favourite hotel of the trip. The villa is gorgeous, plenty of space for the 5 of us. The whoops of joy as our kids explored the place said it all! Private pool, incredible food, attentive staff, wildlife all around. On our first evening, the guides took us to the red sand beach, about a 20 minute walk away. Very beautiful. You walk past a lake with baby crocs, can spot iguanas and other wildlife. Magical. We booked a safari through the hotel, the jeep was comfortable, and very reasonably priced. They packed us a breakfast to take with. The service was outstanding. We didn't want to leave.
