Wild Coast Tented Lodge All Inclusive 5 stars

Yala

The open-air bamboo-clad Ten Tuskers bar and Dining Pavilion wrap around the resort’s free-form swimming pool. Guests can enjoy creative daily-changing menus of authentic Sri Lankan cuisine in the restaurant, as well as sundowner cocktails and picnics al fresco on the sand dunes, watching dusk settle over the Indian Ocean. Guests learn about the wildlife in the park and watch documentaries in the library. One of the most uniquely and beautifully designed properties we have stayed in. It's literally like someone has tried to put the cocoons there without disturbing the surrounding nature, which is a rare feat in today's times. We stayed in the family cocoon which has a private pool. The room is fantastic with a vintage / Victorian design aesthetic inside. There are so many small touches that make you realize the seriousness towards sustainability. The stay is all inclusive and has a laundry inclusion as well, which was great for us. We also had a safari included that was great too! Adding to the beautiful design is their amazing service and hospitality! Rohan was great and always available. Tilshan in the restaurant was superb with his service. As we were celebrating a special occasion, the staff organized a special table for us by the beach, under the stars and it was just amazing! The food across all the meals was great too, their cactus, passion fruit chilli and salted caramel ice creams were some of the best I've ever had! Overall, a great choice for a stay at the Yala National park.

Cinnamon Wild Yala 5 stars

Yala

Only a 5-minute drive from the famous Yala National Park is Cinnamon Wild Yala. It boasts chalets with private balconies and free Wi-Fi. It features an outdoor pool and a restaurant.

Enjoying a prime location, Cinnamon Wild Yala's restaurant provides beautiful landscapes and serves Asian and Western dishes. Meals can also be enjoyed in the privacy of guests’ rooms. We chose this resort for our last nights in Sri Lanka and could not have chosen better when going on Safari. The jungle huts are stylish. You really feel like you are on safari. We were woken up every morning by monkeys on the roof and they were everywhere. A beautiful experience. We could watch the crocodiles and buffalo from the pool. The pool staff is very nice and friendly. He always let us know what to look at. It was a short walk to the beach. Every day we enjoyed a coastal trek. You can't swim here, but the views are breathtaking. A big thank you to the staff at the restaurant. We have travelled to luxury hotels in Sri Lanka but the choice and quality of food here was one of the best. Yummy Honey Hoppers for breakfast. Special thanks to the girls Danu and Tharuka who were very nice and helpful. These girls have a great future ahead of them in the hotel industry. Very much appreciated the breakfast box on the morning safari. The stay at the resort is perhaps better than the safari itself. We will definitely be back.

The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, a concierge service and currency exchange for guests. 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.

King Reach Yala Wild

Tissamaharama

The resort will provide guests with air-conditioned rooms with a desk, a coffee machine, a fridge, a minibar, a safety deposit box, a flat-screen TV, a terrace and a private bathroom with a bidet. At King Reach Yala Wild every room is equipped with bed linen and towels. The place was stunning, comfortable and lovely. We had the best BBQ of our lifes❤️ Silva (manager and guide) was a hidden gem of this place. He made us feel great and assured an amazing stay! King Reach also organized a great Safari where we could see a Leopard! Important: it is very rare to see a Leopard or Elefant (we didn’t see any) in yala at this time of the year. So remember it’s possible you come back just with some crocodile and monkey pics. Still it’s not the fault of the hotel or the Safari guide/driver the animals have enough food and water to stay in the bushes ! Thank you for this great experience!
