Some safety features like locker are missing.

We enjoyed our stay, the staff is really nice and helpful. The property is well maintained and clean.

Really nice play and very affordable. Staff were very friendly and booked us a cultural tour which was brillant. We had breakfast which was very nice and nice restaurants are within walking distance.

Duty manager was extremely helpful throughout our stay. It is fairly rural so it’s a bit of a walk to shops / restaurant or a short tuk tuk ride. Ideal location for visiting Yala NP. The restaurant food was nice but quite pricy.

Lovely location, great food very quiet and both male and female peacocks visited the grounds whilst we were swimming which was awesome. Pool very clean and staff all very friendly and attentive

Did not have hot water. Otherwise the stay was OK. Onsite restaurant had good selection and food quality, but wine was expensive.

Nice place to stay if touring and been to a safari close by! Clean rooms with basic facilities and good air conditioning. There were a few bugs but can be expected in the jungle! Pool looked good unfortunately no time to use! Food very good and superb breakfast served not Buffett

loved the garden and swimming pool, great breakfast

Lovely but isolated spot. Beautiful relaxing outdoor pool, and lots of interesting birds including eagles and peacocks that roamed the grounds. Food was decent, and service was great! The location was down a badly maintained dirt road and town was a 40 minutes walk necessitating a hired tuk-tuk or taxi. Other than it’s off the beaten path site a really nice and chill place!

Lovely place, staff were very helpful and lovely.

What an amazing find! If this hotel was on the coast it would be fantastic value at even USD$125/night. Clean, spacious rooms set in a 2-up, 2-down configuration amidst spacious well-tended grounds with an huge, clean swimming pool incorporating a toddlers section. Rooms have individual air conditioners and also, mosquito nets large enough to cover the beds. Staff are extremely attentive, the attitude is focused on service and a willingness to help. Packed breakfast is provided for the 5 a.m. start for the Yala national park safari. It is a pity that most people stay just a single night before the safari experience (we stayed 2 nights, one either side of the safari) because the Blue Turtle is a value-priced, quiet haven. The owner has lived in Europe and has brought a high standard of finish to the design and the materials used in construction - note the quality of ceiling/roof timbers once you arrive! If there is any disadvantage it is that there are seemingly few additional attractions/activities in the general area to sustain an 'active' traveller (we were travelling as 2 parents and a teenage daughter - but if you are looking for a place to 'chill' between active adventures in southern Sri Lanka, then the Blue Turtle hotel is time and money well-spent.

We were only here for one night, the room was spacious but smelt of damp. AC and fan were great as it helped. Too many mosquitoes maybe because of the season we were in so take precautions. We had dinner at the hotel which was lovely. Staff members were very friendly and helpful. Overall it was fine for the night.

A lovely hotel with a massive pool. Perfect place to do a safari from. Staff and manager were extremely helpful. Only downside was weak internet but it is in the middle of the nowhere!

Overall Blue turtle was really good. Our room was spacious and comfortable, and the gardens and pool added to the relaxed ambience. Some of the staff we dealt with were fantastic while others were definitely lacking in customer service skills. The food we had (breakfast and lunch) was ok for the price but nothing fancy.

Modern hotel with a lovely, big swimming pool in a quiet and peaceful location. Convenient to head to Yala NP for early morning safaris. A mini fridge would have been ideal to keep drinks cold.

This is a small hotel that is a good base for a few days to see the nearby national parks. The manager arranged both a very good jeep safari driver and a taxi for the next part of our trip.

Its a new hotel. The restaurant is still under construction. We were the only family to be there. Stayed there for a night to catch the Afternoon Safari at Yala which is around 20 kms away. The big negative is the dismal pest control. You have to keep the lights inside room and balcony switched off at all times to avoid insects, pests and lizards invade your room. Use mosquito net provided at all rooms everytime. Clean the bed sheet before you sleep on it. It had insects inside. The owner is a nice man who tries to make you comfortable but with very few staff, thats impossible. You ahve to wait long for your food and service

Bardzo przyjemny Hotelik położony wśród zieleni. Niestety bardzo dużo komarów. Pokoje czyste i schludne, ciut mało przytulne. Bardzo smaczne jedzenie. Niestety obsługa nie mówi po angielsku, kontakt mocno utrudniony. Za to właściciel Olivier, absolutnie pomocny, miły i dokładał wszelkich starań by umilić nam pobyt. Zorganizował nam też Safari Jeep w najtańszej cenie.

Les managers qui parlent français nous ont organisé un safari dans le parc Yala avec un chauffeur très compétant. Il y a une belle piscine au milieu d'un parc bien entretenu et il est agréable de d'année sur la terrasse de la chambre. Mais attention aux moustiques. Beaucoup de choix au dinner, mais service un peu lent, tout est fait à la demande. Nous avons apprécié nos deux nuits.

Great hotel Great staff Great food
