Lake Front Yala Safari

Kataragama

Some units in the guest house have private entrance and are fitted with desk and outdoor furniture. Units are complete with a private bathroom equipped with a bidet, while certain units at the guest house also provide guests with a seating area. At the guest house, all units include bed linen and towels. Amazing guest house in Kataragama. We were welcomed like we were part of the family which really offered a lovely guest house experience. Dinusha, Prasanna and their daughter Nithya are the loveliest host ! The room was more than comfortable with a very good AC, a very big bed and a great bathroom. It was maybe one of the most comfortable rooms we had during our 3 weeks stay in Sri Lanka. The guest rooms have a little terrace where you will be able to enjoy your meals. Dinusha offers cooking classes and serves the BEST rice and curry. Cherry on the cake is that Prasanna is a Yala safari guide and has a jeep to take you there. He takes the time to look for animals and show you the gorgeous nature of Yala, including a take away breakfast cooked by Dinusha. Their daughter Nithya is a brilliant young lady and eager to have the guests spending high quality time in Kataragama. She has a very good level of English and takes the guests to a temple visit giving clear explanations on the temple’s history. She also took some time to give us good advices on our next stops, and really built a beautiful relationship with us. We left with a heavy heart as this very quickly felt like our own home - but we were extremely happy to have had the opportunity to live a little part of our trip with the kindest local family and look forward to seeing them again !

The hotel is surrounded by a Garden, which keeps it cool. I loved this town, surrounded by lots of pretty rural roads to wander. The staff were really kind and the location was perfect, a short walk from the bus station.
