Hilton Yala is a stunning hotel, newly built and with every detail of the highest specification. Our pool villa was spacious and beautifully designed. The grounds are immaculate and the expansive pool is incredible. The real selling point of this hotel however is the staff and the amazing service. Every single member of staff we encountered on our two night stay was friendly and helpful. You really get a sense of a hotel that want you to have the best stay possible and will go out of their way to make sure that happens. We were lucky enough to go on a morning safari with ranger Praneeth, who was so intent on finding us the elephants we wanted to see that he extended our safari by an hour to ensure it happened ! In the end, not only did we see a herd of elephants but a leopard too. It really is a magical place and we are already planning a return trip.

It's not just the vast indoor room sizes and the serene cutoff from the outside world outdoor spaces. It's not just the attached pool, or the coffee maker or the humidifier or the finest heating in their opulent bathrooms. It's not just the warmth in Ishaan, Pathun and the other boys in the hospitality dept. It's not just the marketing team's seamless logistics and event planning skills. And it is not even just the phenomenal chef's attention to detail in everything from the menu to the finest ingredients and techniques that he brings to every plate he serves for the guests. It is the time, sweat and effort it has taken to build an amazing paradise called Allure Yala on the banks of the great lake. After our stay at Allure Yala, I'm sure of one thing, this place has magic and it's owner has great taste. I have stayed at so many posh hotels in India and Sri Lanka, but the attention to detail in this place is amazing and blows away the competition. Right from the coffee table books (Rolex, Africa with love, and Sri Lanka in one day), to the meticulously built rooms (even their steps have rounded corners to prevent accidental injuries), and the cutlery that is used to serve food and the maharaja trolley they use to bring the food, everything is perfect about this place. My foodie wife was blown away by each one of the 6 dishes the chef had made for us. From the authentic appams and the sambals, to the finest tomato and cheese sandwich, we will remember him for a long time! Our 2 year old daughter was the most peaceful here (in our 10 day trip in Sri Lanka). She had our best sleep here and didn't even wake up once thanks to the double AC + the most comfy beds. Personally for me, I was sick on one of the nights (had a mild fever, cold, and some pink eye) but somehow i am compelled to think this place took me in when i was ill and healed me (both spiritually and physically).

We stayed in this hotel for 2 days in October 2023. The hotel is located in the Yala Nature Reserve on the ocean. We were pleasantly surprised by the hotel staff. The general manager of Colonel proved to be an amazing person. He gave us a real celebration in honor of our wedding anniversary. It was funny and unforgettable. The hotel itself is not new, but it has everything you need. The rooms are large and colorful. All with ocean views, comfortable enough. Many thanks to the staff of the entire hotel for their hospitality and attention to our people.
