Everything is fairly new. Large sitting area for chatting with friends. We went to Yala Safari with Udara, we liked that our crew did not rush, but captured the moments. Udara is attentive and sincere. Shares his knowledge about birds.

Extraordinary lodge with lovely staff members. We were welcomed by Ishan and Nishani. They were professional, friendly and smiling. Nishani’s food was delicious!! Thank you for two amazing nights and for packing an early breakfast for us to bring on our morning safari :)

Paradise. This stay was one of my favourite in Sri Lanka. Even Before we arrived they had been so thoughtful, they organised the transport for a very fare price and since the warm welcome (with umbrellas cause it was raining) to The safari they organised for us with the picnic that was amazing (even with short notice) they surprised us. Special mention to Upul, who went beyond every day and night to make us feel so special. We visited wild culture in our honeymoon and they give us great memories, so I can’t thank enough. Distance to Yala park it’s pretty good. I read many comments before booked about the food price, let me tell was perfectly reasonable and accurate for the service, i left just one page of the menu. Also, breakfast was like a huge Brunch, once again Upul was very attendant about what we like and always offered a bit more. Rooms are huge, very well maintained and lovely decorated. Bed was comfortable, the pillows I didn’t like that much but that’s really personal i prefer the hard ones. Do not hesitate about this hotel, we have really high standards and they have been beyond expectations it’s even better than pictures.

Amazing service, giving the best effort to make an unique experience. Despite camping, the rooms seems like a good hotel with large comfortable room. We stayed one night only, 2 could have been better for the safari and enjoy more the hotel. It was during our honeymoon and they made sure everything was pretty special. Special attention from food and beverage manager who seemed to be running the whole place, making sure everything worked out

it was an incredible experience from start to finish, with an amazing staff team that made it the brilliant experience it was; they make a real difference. The room and facilities are gorgeous, with a lot of attention to detail to all aspects of accommodation, dining area and safari game drives. We were always well looked after in terms of food and drink, you even have a tasty snack box for the safari drive! The game drive is professionally delivered by a great team who are knowledgeable and familiar with the park; with their experience and some luck of course, we saw leopards on both drives we were entitled to with our stay! The dining experience was top, with a great menu for both food and drinks. We even had a beach side evening meal that was spectacular. Overall we cannot recommend more, and are highly interested in returning and visiting their other 2 establishments in Sri Lanka.

The property was meticulously curated, and the staff were carefully chosen for their generosity and hospitality. The food and welcome drinks were well prepared; they include selections that I am confident many will try for the first time. Clubbing with safari makes you feel comfortable because they can arrange everything to make your safari trip more convenient. I met Umasha, the safari coordinator; she was excellent and very knowledgable about flora and fauna. Our enjoyable stay at Camp Leopard was made possible by the expertise of the personnel. Mark, the property's owner, deserves a huge congratulations for everything. See you soon!

    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!
