Great experience
Pros:

We really enjoyed staying at this place! Prageeth and his wife made this stay very lovely.
The place was impeccably clean and breakfast was delicious.
Prageeth also organised our trip to Yala with a great guide and made sure to help us organise our trip to Ella.
Definitely one of the kindest and most helpful hosts we have met on our trip so far. ☺️

Pros:

The location worked well for the safari — quiet and private, but still close enough to shops and restaurants. Getting around was easy, and we felt safe and relaxed the whole time.

The hosts were friendly, easy to reach, and quick to help with anything we asked. We booked our Safari with them and they gave us a reasonable price. Check-in and check-out were smooth, and everything matched the description.

Overall, a very good experience. We’d definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a reliable and comfortable villa stay.

Cons:

Somehow many mosquitoes

Best accomodation near Yala!
Pros:

Prageeth e sua moglie sono molto disponibili e ti trattano come se fossi parte della famiglia. Cucina ottima e in abbondanza (abbiamo anche pranzato qui). Vi consiglio di venire qui. Comodo per il safari che organizzano anche loro.. noi purtroppo avevamo già prenotato ma credo abbiano prezzi più competenti

Camera pulita, ordinata, immerso nella natura

Cons:

Tutto perfetto!

Pros:

Il proprietario molto gentile e disponibile. La nostra camera si trovava al piano di sopra in un appartamento con 2 camere e 1 bagno. Spazi ampi. Non c'è l'aria condizionata ma con le ventole sul soffitto si sta bene. Leggermente rumorosa, sia l'esterno sia il bagno. Colazione molto buona. Posizione un po' fuori ma il proprietario molto disponibile ci ha chiamato un tuk tuk per portarci dove ci sono i ristoranti. Anche per la colazione si sono resi disponibili a prepararcela al ritorno dal safari.

Highly recommend
Pros:

Had a great vacation at a calm and peaceful environment, infront of a water channel of Debarawewa lake. Couldn't imagine that much of beauty, few meters away from the Debarawewa town. Owner and his wife are more friendly and helpful. Reasonable price. Super clean rooms. Highly recommend

Superb
Pros:

The owner was exceptional — one of the most attentive hosts I’ve ever met. He genuinely cared about my comfort and safety at all times, which made me feel incredibly well looked after. He arranged the best safari experience for me with a fantastic guide at a great price, cooked a delicious dinner, and even took me to the station and waited to make sure I got on the right bus. Truly outstanding hospitality.

Cons:

It can get a bit noisy at night

Pros:

I had a wonderful stay at Sasanda Villa! The location is perfect - just a short walk from lissa Lake, which made our evenings really peaceful and relaxing. The villa is great for families, with a calm and safe environment that made us feel right at home.
The rooms were clean, tidy, and spacious, providing everything we needed for a comfortable stay. What stood out the most was the friendly and welcoming staff - always ready to help with a smile and made sure we were well taken care of throughout our visit.
I would definitely recommend Sasanda Villa to anyone visiting the area, especially it you're traveling with family. A lovely place to relax and enjoy nature!
