FANTASTIC!!!

Our family with three young boys stayed at Chena Huts in Feb for 3 night, it was the most incredible experience! Our children are still talking about it! The people were helpful and kind, the food was amazing, and the place itself is absolutely beautiful. We had a knowledgable guide, Nuwan he made our safaris interesting and ensured we saw everything possible at the park! Thank you Nuwan! Also our driver, Sopul excellent and experienced.

Excellent and beautiful

Reviewed By Jac T

Excellent hotel with excellent service , exceptional good food and a great safari experience. The price is really worth the stay. The lodges are simply beautiful and unique. We actually never stayed in such a lovely lodge and hotel. The service is very good and everyone is trying their best to make your stay unforgettable. The manager also let us stay a little longer on our check out date as we had a later pick- up. Really appreciated and would definitely recommend the hotel to everyone coming to Sri Lanka. Thanks for having us !

Our stay at Nil Sisila was nothing short of excellent. Hansa was a delightful host who looked after our every need. The property was very comfortable, spotlessly clean, and the food was excellent. I can safely give it a 5 star review, and I will definitely be visiting more often.

Yala Wild House

Best deal compared to those around Yala National Park. The area around the Guesthouse is itself in the wild. You can see a lot of animals just by touring nearby in Jeep

Yala Wild House

Reviewed By Dar D

Should you look for authenticity and and peaceful place so Yala Wild House is the place you are looking for. Si vous cherchez l'authencité et la tranquilité alors Yala Wild House est l'endroit que vous recherchez. Indeed, Priyantha (the owner) and his family will really take care for you by welcoming you in one of their bungalows protected from the sun by the trees and also by not only cooking for you but also initiate to lovely Sri Lankan music. En effet, Priyantha et sa famille s'occuperont réellement de vous en vous accueillant dans l'un de leurs bungalows protégés du soleil par l'ombre des arbres et aussi pas uniquement en cuisinant pour vous mais aussi en vous initiant à la musique Sri lankaise lors du diner. One added value is that the park entrance is very closed to their place which does help when you need to wake up early in order to see the animals early morning. Une valeur ajoutée réside dans leur proximité à l'entrée du park ce qui est très appréciable quand vous avez besoin de vous réveiller très tot pour voir les animaux. As well as the animals to discover in the park, there will also be the opportunity to meet warm people who honestly illustrate Sri Lanka. En plus des animaux du parc à découvrir, vous aurez aussi l'oppotornité de découvrir des personnes chaleureuses qui illustre à merveille le Sri Lanka. We were a French couple over 40 years old. Nous étions un couple de quadra français. Istuti ?

Full-day Safari With One Night Stay

Reviewed By hallooooo178

Definiteley one of the best days I ever had!! The staff was really nice and they offered a welcome drink. In the morning we got Coffee and they had Food for the whole day. The Bbq the evening before was really good. 15$ was worth it because it was a lot and especially fresh food!! The guide knew a lot about the different animals and we saw elephants(also one babyelephant) and a lepard! To be honest the day was really perfect. Started with the sunrise and end with the sunset. The accomodation was a tent, but It had beds that were comfortable and a bathroom with shower and a lavatory. The shower was outside but also nice experience. Everything was clean!
