It was the best accomodation we've had so far! Udara was so friendly and showed us around at the local temple and did the yala safari with us. His mom made us an awesome dinner. And the house is very beautiful and clean. We had a really good time.

This is a 5 star glamping experience located in the middle of the jungle. The room is well airconditioned, very spacious, clean and comfortable. The staff is very friendly and went out of their way to make our stay as pleasant as possible. We had a lovely dinner under the stars. A delicious huge breakfast was brought over to our room in the morning. It was an experience using the jacuzzi in the wild too. We were given a complimentary early morning walk in the vicinity of the hotel. Our guide was very knowledgeable about the wildlife we saw. The whole concept is eco-friendly. The ideal location to start from or end the day for a Yala safari tour. Certainly worth staying at.

Nestled within the breathtaking landscapes of Yala National Park, our stay at this luxurious hotel surpassed all expectations. The rooms exuded style and comfort, providing a serene sanctuary amidst the wilderness. Each detail was meticulously crafted, offering a perfect blend of modern amenities and rustic charm. The culinary experience was nothing short of exceptional, with every meal earning a perfect 10/10. However, what truly set this hotel apart was its remarkable staff. Their warmth and hospitality knew no bounds, ensuring that every aspect of our stay was seamless and memorable. Their genuine kindness and eagerness to assist added an extra layer of joy to our safari adventure.

This was my favourite stay of my Sri Lanka trip so far! The location is incredible, the area was clean and accommodation was clean and comfortable. Every single staff member on the property was hard working, helpful and showed us the greatest hospitality, from the moment we arrived. Even the communication leading up to our arrival was fantastic. Nishantha is a wealth of knowledge. He had so much information to give us about every animal we saw, including all of the birds. Not only did he host us and accompany us on our safari. We also saw him cleaning and helping to maintain the property for the guests. This is the same for all of the staff. We saw them thoroughly cleaning the accommodation, while also catering to the guests needs. The food was incredible! So fresh and delicious and I especially loved the Kotu and watching the chef cook it. The kitchen staff were wonderful. There was also a dance and fire ceremony before and after dinner which was fabulous. Thank you also to the staff for making sure there were no bugs in our rooms and beds before we went to sleep. If you are considering going to Yala you will not be disappointed by staying here! I highly recommend!

What's there not to like? The room or the tent, while it's basic, it's self sufficient bug free with an ensuite shower and toilet. The grounds around the camp is spacious and a true immersion in mother nature. The food is authentic Sri Lankan cuisine. The 4 dogs are therapeutic to stroke. The safari tour was guided by Sudesh who has eagle's vision for spotting wild life from miles away. He'd helped us to spot snake, monitor lizard, all kinds of birds, crocodiles and definitely a leopard resting on a tree 20m away.

It sounds like a wonderful place to stay, especially for nature enthusiasts looking to immerse themselves in the biodiversity and scenic landscapes near Yala National Park. Staying at Podi Hoona Eco Bush Camp would likely provide a peaceful and eco-friendly experience, allowing guests to appreciate the natural surroundings and perhaps spot some of the local wildlife, including geckos, in their natural habitat. Highly recommended for anyone who looks for a wonderful wildlife experience….

    The villa provided a high level of comfort with all necessary amenities. The children had a great time observing the squirrels, lizards, and frogs around the property, which was perfect for those who appreciate nature. The service was attentive, and staff members took us out on mini excursions to nearby fishing village and beaches using a villa cart or tuktuk. These experiences were truly incredible and will be remembered for a long time. A big thank you to manager Mahdawa, Tallina and Suraj for taking such good care of us.

    The pool is huge and fantastic for families and the dining experience was very positive too. The bar menu is accessible, the buffet very wide ranging with multiple cuisine types, and the Sri Lankan restaurant good quality. The private beach looks good but was closed to us. We also used the gym which had a couple of running machines and climbing, bikes etc.

    The staff at Yakaduru are wonderful, in particular Nishantha who took us on the nature walk. His love and knowledge of wildlife really shone through. The huts are open to the elements in places (including the bathroom) but the team perform a visual inspection of each room at bedtime to remove any unwelcome critters and they also fumigate it. We had tea on the rocks and the BBQ which were both really magical and throughly enjoyed by our kids. Although we were only there for one night, it felt like a real adventure.

    This is an incredible hotel that exceeded our expectations in many ways. It is hard to fault - the staff regularly went out of their way to meet our needs. The facilities were exceptional - our family pods were very comfortable and the decor classy and in keeping with safari vibes. Kids loved our private plunge pool! The spa was fabulous - possibility one of the best massages I have ever had thanks to experienced therapists. The quality of the food and choice at the restaurant can not be faulted.

    Yakaduru is a great place where nature and tradition come together, making it perfect for tourists. We really liked how they treated us and how comfortable we felt during our stay. The safari was amazing, especially because our guide was so friendly and helpful. Despite the dry surroundings, Yakaduru felt peaceful with lots of trees and nice buildings. We had a fun BBQ night with interesting food. Exploring the chena fields and climbing treehouses made our trip even more exciting. We can't wait to come back with our kids for more fun!
