We stayed two at the lodge for two nights. The experience surpassed what I imagined, it is in a quiet location surrounded by nature. The staff, Aruna and Joseph are superb friendly and knowledgeable, making you feel welcome. Aruna was always available and told us about local customs and wildlife. Dinner was served under the stars, it was plentiful and tasty, as was breakfast and lunch. We went on the morning safari, it was excellent our tour guide naturarist Vishwa was very informative and made sure we were comfortable whilst seeing the animals. Would highly recommend the experience.

The Lodge was perfectly placed close to Yala Nature Reserve, the staff were friendly and helpful. Meals were good and we ate under the stars by a roaring campfire at night. We stay on the 1st floor with 2 rooms side by side - perfect for families with kids - and had the whole balcony to ourselves which was perfect for lounging and games with the kids. I would recommend the lodge look at the water pressure of the shower. It was very low. And I suspect the travellers under us on the ground floor heard our kids running around at the top. Would recommend if Yala is on your list!

Really enjoyed my stay, aruna was very attentive and helpful. Location is only 5 kilometres of the local town and easy to get to, dinner was nicely done BBQ chicken very yummy. Rooms are very good size and excellent working aircon. Lots of open space to relax if that’s what you want l. Only a few minutes away from the Yala Park, Aruna organised a morning safari and it was very good.

Sagara & Daramasiri was excellent on their service. Sagara took extra care to deliver hot food as dinner as I was late to return. Helped us with all the needs and answered all the questions we had ! Room was very clean ! Would definitely recommend this place !

We visited this place so that we would be close to Yala National Park, and it was indeed a really good location with monkeys all around us. The staff was amazing and always went out of their way to provide the best service. They woke up early to provide a delicious breakfast for us before our safari (5 am). And when our safari driver (from an outside company) did not show up, the staff arranged another driver within 30 minutes. We only stayed for two nights, but we felt right at home. The staff even brought us to a sacred festival in town where we had a great time.

The funky leopard is the place to stay for your Yala safari. Avinka looked after me so much. He went above and beyond for everything. During the safari he was the best tracker of all the safaris and he made sure I saw every bit of wildlife Yala had to offer. The leopards are hard to find but he found one!
