Janika our host was fantastic. Anything we needed no ask was too big or small.
Our Safari was unforgettable and our guide knew where all the animals were.
Chef made one of the best club sandwiches I’ve ever had an overall everything was just wonderful.
It really was a highlight about trip to Sri Lanka.

Umesh & staff were fantastic, welcomed us in very late and immediately got us settled and fed. What made dinner even better was him bringing over the two new pups, one of which he allowed us to name. Welcoming, little Lola <3 Umesh arranged everything we needed for the safari the next day, had a breakfast for us all packed for the morning. He was even kind enough to keep the shower of the room we had been in the night before open for us when we returned later that day so we could freshen before heading to our next destination.
It’s no thrills, but doesn’t exactly what you need it to do with great hospitality.

Amazing property and a great location. The staff were amazing, the accomodation was great and certainly more than 3 star resort. The attentiveness we had from the manager and other staff was beyond helpful and they were all so friendly and nothing was too much.
The accomodation was great, we stayed in the new Lavendar villa which fitted 4 people and was only a month old. Extremely clean, very comfortable and good bathroom. Great view with a balcony off the front looking at the lake.
The food was all home cooked and massive portion sizes which were delicious and so affordable. We were there for Sri Lankan new year and were asked to participate in the ceremony of boiling milk which was a great experience.
I would absolutely recommend staying here. If we were to go back to Yala we will definitely stay again.
Only benefit would be to have a pool.

Beautiful place. Love the atmosphere.
Great staff. They are very supportive.
The agreed price vs charged price was different.
Venue has lots of stray dogs and very disturbing.
Need to improve the cleanliness.
There weren't enough linen and towels to replace.
