Pros:

Grande chambre, vue sur lac. Nous avons pu pêcher mais gare aux crocodiles ;-)
Bons repas et copieux. Literie confortable. Safari à Yala top!

Cons:

Manque un peu de débit dans la salle de bain et eau tiède. Peu gênant car il faisait très chaud!

Pros:

Sehr freundlicher Besitzer, es werden Safari in den Yala Nationalpark, Vogelbeobachtungstouren und Nachttouren zur Großkatzenbeobachtung angeboten. Das Essen war sehr gut und die Portionen waren mehr als ausreichend. Man ist mitten in der Natur und kann von der Terasse aus schon einige Tiere beobachten, am See nebenan kann man auch Krokodile sehen.

Cons:

Die Zimmer könnten moderner sein, für den Preis braucht man aber auch keinen Luxus erwarten.

Très bon séjour.
Pros:

Hotel très calme au cœur de la nature, près des lacs. Idéal pour observer les oiseaux. Le gérant est très serviable. Nous avons loué un scooter par son intermédiaire et pu sillonné les environs.

Cons:

Pros:

Tolle Unterkunft in einer großartigen Lage direkt am See. Perfekter Startpunkt für Safaris in Yala oder Bundala und auch fußläufig kann man um die Unterkunft herum zahlreiche Vögel entdecken auf den Seen und auch eine riesige Flughund-Kolonie befindet sich in der Nähe. Mein Zimmer war ziemlich einfach, aber absolut ausreichend und die Gastgeber waren sehr hilfsbereit und aufmerksam. Ich habe bei einer Rollertour die Stadt gezeigt bekommen und auch das Essen war hervorragend und abwechslungsreich. Volle Empfehlung!

Cons:

Etwas nasses Badezimmer und leicht leckende Klimaanlage, aber alles im Rahmen :)

Pros:

L'hôtel Hibiscus (au top) qui nous a accueilli en remplacement de l'hôtel Birds View.
A notre arrivée, on nous a annoncé que l'hôtel Birds View était complet alors que nous avions réservé.
Tout l'hôtel avait été pris par une famille de Colombo et notre réservation avait sauté sans être prévenu !!

Cons:

Nous n'avons pas apprécié de ne pas avoir été informé de l'annulation de notre réservation et devoir prendre le temps de trouver un autre hôtel pour le soir même.

Pros:

Clean rooms, a beautiful garden, and a picturesque, peaceful location. The host helped us organize a safari trip, served a delicious dinner, fruit cocktails, and ice cream despite our late check-in. The next morning, we were welcomed with tea and breakfast for our journey to Yala National Park. Thank you for everything — we highly recommend this place.

Tolle Unterkunft direkt am See mit sehr nettem Gastgeber.
Pros:

Tolle Lage direkt am See, der Gastgeber ist etwas zurückhaltend, aber sehr freundlich und herzlich. Frühstück ist gut und reichhaltig Zur Begrüßung und zwischendurch wurden wir mit Fruchtsaft und Kokosnuss verwöhnt und sogar zur Weiterreise mit unseren Fahrrädern gab es noch ein kleines Lunchpaket. Schön war auch die vermittelte Tour zur Beobachtung von Eule und anderen Vögeln der Gegend.

Pros:

Vores ophold på Hotel Bird View var dejligt. Værelserne har aircondition, fremragende faciliteter og er utroligt rene og rummelige! Vi nød en lækker middag her, og familien, der ejer det, er utrolig venlig og hjælpsom. De planlagde også en fantastisk safari i Yala for os. Meget komfortabelt og i en smuk have, dette er et fantastisk sted at bo, når man besøger Yala.

Pros:

The surroundings are lovely and serene, the beds are decent, and the rooms are quite lovely and roomy. Additionally, the food is the greatest we've ever had in Sri Lanka! They also booked a safari for us, and we had the best time at a lower cost than all the other websites. You may definitely check out this hotel!

Une belle étape pour un safari
Pros:

La gentillesse et la prévenance de nos hôtes. Le premier petit déjeuner sri Lankais n’était pas forcément à notre goût, ils se sont adaptés, ils nous ont proposé les jours suivants un petit déjeuner européen. La terrasse de l’hôtel est spacieuse et agréable. Safari proposé au top.

Cons:

Malheureusement comme souvent au Sri Lanka peu de pression à la douche.

Pros:

Abbiamo visto molti uccelli e scoiattoli in giardino e la proprietà si trova in una posizione incantevole vicino al lago. Il personale è stato accogliente e premuroso; ci hanno preparato una deliziosa colazione, organizzato un safari nel Parco di Yala e ci hanno offerto degli ottimi spuntini lungo la strada.

Exceptional
Pros:

Sameera was an amazing host; he showed me the lake at sunset so I could see wildlife, and then we looked for owls. Situated directly in front of the lake, the villa is a pleasant place to stay. I highly recommend this place because he was very helpful and dropped me off in town multiple times.
