Great accommodation in Tissa! The rooms are spacious and clean, and have a balcony with a beautiful view to rice fields. The pool is really nice. Great value for money. The owners helped organize the full day safari. Really great tour (we saw 2 leopards) with a guide that doesn’t follow the crowds and truly explores the park. The location is not super close to centre but they have bicycles we can use (just a 20min bike ride)

I will give this a 10/10 out of how much the owner provided for me. The view outside is amazing, just in front of the lake. So peaceful! So the room was okay. But the best thing for me was that the owner provided me a free tour around the place, watching sunset, crocodiles, bats and owls. He also took me to the atm, supermarket, and picked me up from the bus when arriving. Everything for free. And I can also recommend going with the safari that he is providing. That guide was also amazing, experienced, and affordable.

The owner is a fantastic man, he was very attentive and respectful. He helped organise transport to Yala and then from Yala, as well as our Safari. He got an excellent Safari driver, which is the key to a good Safari experience. The room was lovely, and dinners were brilliant too. The area has a lake nearby and the locals who live nearby are so welcoming and friendly. I wish we had stayed longer.

The best part of this property apart from its beautiful location is the wonderful manager Mr.Danushka. He literally does all the work here and is absolutely efficient and so hospitable. We would totally go back to stay here with family, because we know he’d take care of every single thing.

Such a great place, the sweetest family and Randy has so much love for his community, the animals and his garden. We loved staying here, and hope we will be back someday. The rooms are huge, spacious, bright and new, and so is the bathroom. The garden is so cute and a great place to relax. Randy took us on a biking trip where we saw birds, animals, plants, trees and a stuba/tempel, he has so much knowledge and gives so much to his guests. Before we left we had a tour in their fruit garden, that was so interesting. Thank you so much Randy and family. You are the best.

We had an overall amazing experience here. The family who owns this place offers service beyond exceptional to make sure everything is okay. The food is exceptionally good. We had one of the best Sri Lankan curries I have had in my entire stay here. The room is large, spacious and the bed is comfortable. Everything is very clean and the A/C works really well. The mother of the family even sewed up one of my blouses for free. He helped us with our bus ride to Ella and stayed with us for an hour to make sure we got on the right bus.

    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 ☹️

    One of the best accommodations we stayed in Sri Lanka. We came from Arugambay and the hotel arranged a taxi for us at a very reasonable price. The staff is very good. They also prepared a very delicious dinner for us. They gave us their own jeep to go on safari the next morning. They have a very good driver and a comfortable new jeep. We saw a lot of animals including Leopard .We went on a private full day safari.If you want to see a lot of animals, it is best to go on a full day safari. We reccomended here.

    This is a great budget hotel that has the added benefit of a very clean pool. The shower was hot and the best we had in Sri Lanka in our first week, Breakfast was amazing especially the Dhal. Shantha the host was easy to communicate with and arranged our tour of Yala and our ongoing transport to Tangelle at a very fair price. We found Shantha to be an honest man that cared about his guests. Overall the stay was a very pleasant one and we would stay here again.

    We spent 2 months travelling Sri Lanka and this was probably the best hotel we stayed in!! The room was extremely spacious, well furnished and cleaned every morning. The decor was beautiful and the food at the restaurant was also good. The pool was very calming. We were also able to arrange a safari which picked us up outside of the hotel. The hosts prepared a picnic breakfast for us to take which was so helpful. They went above and beyond, it was great value!
