Very near the entrance of the safari. They have packed breakfast for taking to the safari if your jeep departs in the early morning.

The hotel is very clean, staffs are helpful. It is located in the jungle so it might be hard to get there. They only have vegetarian choices on their menu.

The entrance of the hotel is right next to Yala National Park. Contact the hotel in advance before arriving and they will arrange a jeep to pick you up. The whole service is in place. The hotel is located in Homecoming Park. The natural landscape is very good, but the facilities are definitely not comparable to those of a five-star hotel, but it is still a very good stay experience. Dinner can be ordered in the room. When you are done eating, you only need to ring the bell and a staff member will come over to clear away the dishes, which is very considerate. Ask the hotel to help book a safari for the next day. We charter a car for two people, a 6-seater jeep. The driver is also very experienced. We saw elephants, buns, bears and a lot of sika deer. We were very lucky. This experience is very good, I will recommend it to my friends who are coming to Sri Lanka~

This is a cottage in a national park. The service is particularly noteworthy. I forgot my bug spray, so I asked for some, and they sold it to me for $10. I thought it was expensive, but I bought it because I was tired, but I was senile and accidentally gave them 3,000 yen in Japanese yen. I asked for a refund later, but they lied and said they didn't get it. The staff kept asking for tips every time after that, and it was annoying, so I ignored them, and they got mad and smashed my suitcase. I stayed at other places in Sri Lanka, but this one staff member at this place was the worst. Also, I didn't like the rice at all. The jambalaya in particular had a miraculous taste, with the sauce and rice not matching at all. Please try it.

This camp hotel is right next to Yala Park. You need to change the hotel's off-road vehicle to enter. Because we arrived late at night, the way out turned into a night safari. We encountered countless hares and even had sex with An elephant met on a narrow road. The driver was very experienced. The room is relatively clean. There is a lake opposite, where countless birds and lizards live. It is a very interesting experience to fall asleep with the peacocks singing at night.

The room is very clean and unique. The small villa in the woods is worth experiencing. The boss also personally took us to visit the surrounding scenery. There are many wild animals.

It's simply perfect...the scenery, hygiene, and food are all perfect...you must order some food...it's so delicious. The hotel is in a cabin in a virgin forest. It's unexpectedly clean and tidy..The Wi-Fi is also very good.. Highly recommended, don't miss it.

真正的森林小屋,每間都是單獨的一棟,私密空間充足,酒店總共就5間房,直接坐落在森林裏,風景很美。鳥兒,蜥蜴,變色龍,隨時偶遇,原生態的環境。酒店就在國家公園裡,入住需要酒店的人開越野車來接,去safari衹需要半小時就到公園門口。喜歡大自然又不能接受露營的首選,對設施有要求的不推薦。小瑕疵是淋浴水比較小,設施都比較舊。早餐很豐富,做的很用心。
