The location is excellent and the resort is real value for money . The food was excellent . The rooms were nice . The toiletries in the bathrooms needs to improve . The bathroom needs exhaust fans as it can get quite stuffy . The resort manager Mr Upal is a nice friendly bloke and is exceptional in his service . Overall a very pleasant experience .

This is a great location to stay if you want to visit the national parks and My Village will organise safaris to the four parks in the area either a half or full day. The local town is not a tourist town but it's great to wander around looking in the local shops.

We were there the first time for safari. We had a tour to the Buddha by the sea…amazing.
This time we were passing through on our way to Ella. We ate at Red Pizza which was just as good second time round.

Was in Tissamaharama for Yala Safari, had booked the early morning Safari.
Disappointed with the Safari as there were very few animals except.for.peacocks and spotted dear.
Later into the ride our jeep driver and guide revealed we had entered through block 5 of the Safari and most the animals(Leopard, Bears) mostly are sighted in block 1 and 2.
Block 1 and 2 were closed that day, maybe just our luck.
So I guess check, with the Safari organizer before booking your safari as it quite expensive.
Basically disappointed ☹️

Very good base for safari to Yala or Bundala parks.
Very good base for safari to Yala or Bundala parks. I' went to Bundala as I've never been to park with big wetlands and I think it was a great choice. We've seen numerous types of birds, lizards, monkeys, jackals, mangooses, bufallos, crocodiles and also few elephants😊
I didn't stay in center of Tissa but still was able to find nice restaurants, like Smoky Kitchen (recommended).

Great hotel with good and very helpful team. There was an issue with the pool during our stay related to the current situation in Sri Lanka. We were informed beforehand sufficiently so there were no surprises and we could still enjoy a swim.
Even though we booked our Yala National Park safari separately from the hotel, everything went without a hitch. A breakfast was prepared and ready for us and the night guard was very helpful. A definite recommendation from us.
The staff are very welcoming and really like to make sure you're comfortable.
Food is Sri Lanka and catered for the non spicy which I loved
Location to the park is okay took about 20 mins to reach the entrance however we drove to the hotel and they didn't have signs to the venue so we found it a little troublesome to get there - we got lucky finding a safari truck to follow.
They can provide the safari trip at extra and give you nice binoculars and snacks/breakfast
Sanjeewa and his wife are absolutely wonderful and incredibly loving hosts. The rooms are clean, spacious, and have a really comfy bed. The view of the rice fields is great. The Sri Lankan food they serve is truly delicious. If you plan to do the safari in Yala, book through him. He has an excellent driver with a great price. I would highly recommend this place to stay in Tissamaharama, especially if you want to visit Yala National Park. Thanks for the great stay!
Amazing breakfast. Exceeded out expectations. Sri Lankan and continental cuisine! The hotel also arranged our Safari and the driver and guide of the safari was exceptional. He always seemed to know where animals would show up. We saw so much wildlife! His driving made us feel so safe and his knowledge about the parks flora and fauna was utterly inspiring. Thank you sooo much driver for such an amazing experience. We can only highly recommend this young man!
The hotel is in a beautiful quiet location near the rice fields. It’s about a 10 minute walk to town which we didn’t mind. The owner organized a great safari for us and helped us a lot with using the public transport in Sri Lanka because there is very little information online. We also went to a really cool bat place the owner told us about. Also, I think the town of Tissa is a bit overlooked - it’s worth visiting even if you’re not going to do a safari
Nestled in Tissamaharama, this spacious hotel offers exceptional value for money. The staff goes above and beyond to provide excellent service. Both dinner and breakfast were delightful experiences, with delicious food and drinks on offer. Despite its size, the hotel maintains a cozy atmosphere, nestled within the heart of a charming village. The locals are incredibly friendly, adding to the warmth of the overall experience.
Hotel is very clean, the cleanest hotel we stayed in Sri Lanka. Rooms are clean and comfortable. Dinner was great, chef Shalom prepared very tasteful fish and prawns. They also prepared special meal for our daughter, everything was delicious. Shalom and Shashi were very nice and helpful. They provide us late check out. We felt there like at home. I would definitely recommend this hotel.
I loved this hotel.
The staff were lovely.
Excellent location and middle of the jungal .
Food is good. Room was so sweet and comfortable .
Perfect place to spend your vacation.i am so happy to say i spent my vacation this place which is very beautiful surrounding,good staff,delicious foods are here😍.All are perfect.recommend to visit.🏞️
What a lovely place! The staff is amazing, and the food is yummy. We went fishing in the lake nearby in the evening and the hotel employees cooked and served the fish for us. Sri Lankan people are so hospitable, just like this hotel. They accept card payments, and our bill was reasonable. I highly recommend everyone to visit this place!
The wifi is excellent - best internet access I have had during my time in Sri Lanka. Even when the wifi became flakey, data coverage of the hotel is great. The bathroom is large with a comfortable shower - and the garden (and pool) are beautiful without any noise of traffic nearby.
Warmly and friendly host,simple and clean room,welcome drinks,delicious food,the beautiful garden,and Debarawewa lake in front of the hotel gate.You can go around the lake in the morning and dusk, bird watching and enjoy the scenery of lake.We had a great time here.
I had an exceptional stay at this hotel! The food was amazing, and the location surrounded by greenery was beautiful. The morning view was truly breathtaking. Though it was a one-day stay, we loved every moment of my stay. Highly recommended!
this is one of the best places that I have ever visited in Sri Lanka. very much comfortable and happy to stay in this hotel. the guy named vimukthi and his wife give us delish food and a calm environment and the best hospitality.
11 out of 10 !
Room was amazing, hosts were lovely, views out of this world. The food was our best in Sri Lanka. The hotel can arrange your Yala tour which we did not realise. We wish we had stayed longer
Staff was great even if they really take their time in preparing your order,but this is something that you have to get used while traveling in Sri lanka.....
their style of doing things is a bit slower :)
Quiet peaceful property. One of the tastiest rice and curry dishes I’ve had in Sri Lanka! Staff are exceptional . Couldn’t do enough for us! Breakfast was fabulous and so plentiful!
So far, our best stay in Sri Lanka!
Beautiful hotel, friendly & VERY helpful staff!
Perfect spot for YALA safari!
DELICIOUS dinner, breakfast & cardamom tea!
