Lovely stay with everything taken care of!
Pros:

I had a great time at Yala Visit Villa! Staff was very friendly, food was great and my room was so big and clean! I had a full day safari arranged via Yala Visit Villa and I had THE BEST day! They made sure everything was taken care of and everything was perfect! Definitely can recommend having the sri lankan curry and rice, they even made it vegetarian at my request. The pool was a calm corner to take a little swim in the evening, perfect! Thank you for having me!

Pros:

Lovely staff and good breakfast.
We had the best safari with them, the driver was the best! Really committed and experienced

Cons:

At checkout we had to pay the commission fee for booking.com on top, which is supposed to be payed by the property and not the guests. She said she will rise her prices so the final price you see at booking.com already includes the fee (how it is supposed to be) so guests know the final price beforehand when booking. So just make sure to ask in advance if the commission fee is included or not („including taxes and fees“ does apparently NOT include the commission fee). Otherwise a lovely stay

Carino ma attenzione alla bevanda di benvenuto!
Pros:

Piscina molto carina, stanza più pulita rispetto alle altre strutture dove ho pernottato qui. Colazione preparata al sacco per il safari.

Cons:

Mi hanno offerto un frullato al mango buonissimo all’arrivo. Peccato che c’era il ghiaccio e il giorno dopo sono stata male. Attenzione!

Pros:

La piscina està molt bé per després del safari.
Ens van gestionar el safari i va estar molt bé. Ens van deixar estar a l'habitació fins tard. Després del safari que vam fer al matí vam poder banyar-nos, esmorzar i dutxar-nos tranquilament.

Hotel práctico para una pausa
Pros:

Tuvimos una muy bienvenida. El staff muy amable y los propietarios también.
Nos ayudaron en todo. Debes pagar en ecectivo: rupias, $ o euros.
Contratamos el safari y estuvo divertido y ves algunos animales, pero habiamos hecho el safari de Sirigiya y fue extraordinario en comparación de este. No te pierdas la puesta de sol y ver los murciélagos, el propietario nos acompañó ya que viajamos en tuk tuk y por la noche no es recomendable.
La piscina genial! Y el desayuno extraordinario.
Es un hotelito sin pretenciones. Limpio y amplio.
Gracias!

Cons:

Tener que pagar en ecectivo.

Pros:

Peaceful hotel just outside Sigiriya. Our rooms were a good size and there was a lovely verandah with seating that we spent time on enjoying the breeze. Kettle on the room and the all important aircon. Swimming pool was enjoyed by everyone and nice restaurant on site. There are other restaurants within walking distance.

Cons:

Location was great for us but you do need transport to reach local attractions.

Super Host!
Pros:

Il personale, devo veramente soffermarmi a ringraziare tutti quanti per la disponibilità e la gentilezza, ci siamo sentiti accolti e a casa! Grazie !

Cons:

Probabilmente essendo bassa stagione i muri dovevano essere ridipinti, sulle finestre della camera c’era un film per la privacy, però era molto pieno di insetti

Pros:

De locatie is prima en het gezin en de medewerkers zijn aardig. En het ontbijt was overdadig.

Cons:

Op de foto’s ziet het er een stuk beter uit dan de staat waarin wij het aantroffen. Het zwembad heeft veel kapotte stukken en over het algemeen zou het echt een opknapbeurt kunnen gebruiken.

Exceptional stay very close to Yala national park
Pros:

We stayed here for 2 nights and were welcomed with a freshly made mango juice. The owners are extremely nice and helpful, rooms are well equipped. Breakfast is very good and they also offer dinner with many delicious options to choose from.
They helped us organize a full day safari tour and it was amazing! It cost 100 $ per person and it included breakfast, lunch, snacks and drinks. Our driver – Chooty was phenomenal and knew the best spots. We saw elephants, monkeys, crocodiles, a leopard and many birds.
They also organized a taxi service from Tissamaharama to Ella for a reasonable price.
Overall, we had a wonderful experience here at Yala Visit Villa and would recommend it to anyone 👌🏼

Great hosbitability
Pros:

Really good a/c in the room, mosquito net, clean pool. The best think about the stay was the hospitability. We went to a morning safari which included a breakfast so instead of breakfast they prepared us an evening snack which was great and we even got the leftovers to go in the morning.

Cons:

Watch out for some sharp edges in the pool. Room could use some darkening curtains.
