"The pool is fantastic."
"This place has a lovely feel and ambience - it has the perfect balance of being a modern / contemporary infrastructure (swimming pool, rooms with modern amenities and so on) and yet being rustic in the sense of being so close to nature."
"The hotel was well located for the Yala National Park and visiting Kataragama which is a religious site combining Buddhism, Hindu and Muslim worship on one site!"

“In my opinion, this is a particularly well-run property near Yala National Park. The staff anticipates needs, demonstrated by their proactive offer of a cot and room change to best accommodate a family. Its dedication to both comfort and local experiences, like arranging safaris and being near daily Pooja ceremonies, makes it a standout choice in Tissamaharama.”
