Pros:

Vous recherchez un endroit calme entouré de bienveillance par vos hôtes, n'hésitez pas c'est l'endroit qu'il vous faut. Je suis au Sri Lanka depuis 2 mois et c'est mon meilleur endroit. Les repas et petits déjeuners sont très copieux, variés et excellents. Ils sont très discrets mais observateurs pour subvenir à nos besoins.
Il y a tout à proximité du logement
Merci encore à ce couple adorable que nous n'oublierons pas.

Pros:

We stayed for two nights at Sasanda Villa. The apartment was very cozy, clean, and spacious. Our host was very helpful and hospitable; he arranged a trip to Yala National Park for us. The driver was absolutely perfect. We saw elephants, a leopard, crocodiles, buffaloes, and even a very rare Sloth Bear. I highly recommend Sasanda Villa!

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!
