Great hotel. Nice and clean and upgraded us to the treehouse. Bed was really comfortable and we had both a/c and a fan. Very accommodating and made sure we were booked for a great safari tour. Nice restaurant on site. Went over and above providing take away breakfast for the tour and breakfast at the hotel that accommodated my food intolerance. Highly recommend.

This is a great place, with a great staff. The pool was just being finished when we stayed here. It will help because it is a bit removed from restaurants and the town in general. If there for a safari to Yala, they will arrange that for you (at a slightly higher price than in town)

The reason for coming to this area was to visit Yalla national park. The hotel organised an excellent half day safari for us with a really good, knowledgeable guide. This was really helpful as there were so many touts offering trips it could have been a nightmare. The accommodation was adequate, the staff friendly and helpful. All in all it provided good value for money.

Just minutes off the main road, you enter through an impressive gateway and see in front of you an almost fairytale structure, set in a tropical garden. Large rooms with cold drinks always available. FYI however, I suspect that it's a little walk to town or anywhere else if you don't have a car.

Although it was a bit hard to find, this small hotel was a great choice for us. We only spent one night but we would have stayed longer with no problem. The room was clean and new, we had a small terrace off our room and they were doing some renovations in the backyard so it will look great outside as well. The staff was friendly and were willing to meet our every request. We had dinner delivered to the tables on the second floor outside our room, and after a long, hot day, the cold beer was very welcome. Breakfast was very good as well.

Just what we needed. Lovely owners and staff. Comfortable room with balcony, lots of privacy, and great food. The resort is new, beautifully designed, with lots of attention to detail. Backs onto the river, lovely garden area where you can while away a few hours in a hammock. There's also a tree house which you can stay in, which looks really cool. They have all the info you need, can organise safaris, tuk tuks into Tissa and surrounds. We got a tuk tuk into Tissa 200RS went to the Stuppa, walked along the lake at sunset, saw all the wildlife and the sunset then walked back to the resort.

I stayed at the hotel from November 2nd - November 7th 2015. The hotel arranged for collection from Colombo to the hotel for a reasonable cost. It was great to see the whole family come together to make the hotel work. Mum, Dad, sisters, bothers etc. all share in the upkeep. The service was first class and the lovely gardens and settings helped to create a friendly, relaxing atmosphere. The hotel offer bike hire and safaris to the local reserves at a good price considering what is involved for the safari. The weather was quite kind and the only heavy rain appeared at night. All food was hand cooked to order and was very tasty. It was also obvious that the owners were working further to improve the hotel but this did not detract from the holiday. 5*. GO!
