Yala Beddegama Eco

Sicuramente se uno decide di trascorrere la notte in una stanza sull’albero deve essere preparato alla possibilità che insetti e animaletti entrino, noi purtroppo però abbiamo avuto un’esperienza particolare dal momento che ci sono entrate diverse scimmie in stanza che hanno defecato ovunque e buttato giù tutti i mobili. secondo me la struttura deve attrezzarsi un po’ meglio per questo tipo di evenienze, e assicurarsi che le reti intorno alla casa siano messe bene (così come la zanzariera sul letto).
Oltretutto ci saremmo aspettati un po’ di sconto dopo questo inconveniente invece non lo abbiamo ricevuto.

Ik heb geen moeite met primitief, daar hebben we ook voor gekozen. Het was wel een beetje vergane glorie. Ook het zwerfafval op het terrein was wat minder.

Bathrooms leaking, not working, netting torn, plastic bottles and plastic litter scattered around the place. Very expensive food for what it was - should have been a fraction of the price.

Abbiamo organizzato il safari con loro e non ci siamo trovati bene con il driver (non parlava inglese e il pomeriggio abbiamo praticamente fatto lo stesso percorso della mattinatap)

Quite a lot of rubbish around the property. A fair amount of maintenance needed to the tree houses and associated areas.

I wish the booking confirmation had been more clear that paying with cash was the only option, the ATM is not close.

1. before arrival we were told that the safari in Yala National Park for 2 people (full day) would cost 300$ if we booked it through the accommodation. As the price was too expensive for us, we booked the full-day safari ourselves. On arrival, the staff then reduced the price to 180$, which was cheaper than our tour, so we booked the safari through the accommodation after all.
2. as the in-house restaurant was closed, we were offered to order any Sri Lankan meal for 3000 rupees per person. As this was again too expensive for us, we declined. On the second evening, we were unable to leave the accommodation for health reasons, so we were forced to order something at the accommodation. Unfortunately, we could only order fried rice for 3000 rupees per person.

From these two experiences, despite the really nice hospitality, we got the impression that the tourists were simply being ripped off.

We only chose the Yala Beddegama Eco Resort because we wanted to stay in the tree house accommodation. On arrival, we were already wondering how tight the roof really was. Unfortunately, it rained heavily on the first evening and as a result, not only the floor and table but also the beds were wet. The other tree houses were not occupied and on request we were not able to spend the night there either (probably because the beds there were also wet), i.e. we spent the night in a normal cabin. As there were also thunderstorms the following day and the roof was not tight, we stayed in the normal cabin. On the day of departure we were still charged the price for the more expensive tree house.

Overall, the price-performance ratio is poor. The booked rooms were not habitable in the rain and were still charged.

Unfortunately, I cannot recommend this accommodation.

There was no restaurant that was stated.no tea coffee facilities.cold bought in dinner over priced and under cooked chicken.manger sold us a safari 15mln after we arrived, quoting us 18000 for got to mention the additional 21000 for entrance fee.we were so disappointed we had to leave but had to pay for the full 4 night.your site clearly states restaurant facilities by far the worst property I have ever booked with booked.com
We would ever have booked this property had we known the lack of facilities.we really fill you should update your help information regarding this property.i am sure you are aware of some of the terrible reviews on your site.clerley the worst place we have stayed in sri lanka and over priced to 😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡😡

They say they have a restaurant but they don’t. We ordered dinner and unbeknownst to us it was bought for us from Somewhere outside. We were charged 3000LKR each for a dinner of basic fried rice & a few bit of dried chicken. It was our most expensive meal in Sri Lanka. The beer is also a rip off at 1250LKR for a 500mk can of Lion. This was real shame as the manager Sidart is a lovely man but the whole experience ended up being our most expensive night in Sri Lanka by far. They need to get more realistic with their pricing and don’t advertise that you have a restaurant if you don’t.

Nothing, we loved it. It's pretty basic in terms of facilities which is exactly what we were expecting, but if you're looking for the lap of luxury this isn't the place for you. If you want an outdoor living experience, in a treehouse then this is absolutely the place you should visit.

Sadly the prices we’re not transparent, drinks we ordered were 1500 lkr and extra meals were 3000 lkr so not your usual prices in Sri Lanka, but if that’s in your price range then no problem. We found some of the owner’s actions not sincere and constant begging for a good Google review didn’t make it better. One writes a good review when the experience was good, not when one asks for it.

very out of the way of the town centre. meals were quite expensive.

The tree house was amazing. Felt like being in a jungle.

Nothing, I would go back in a heartbeat.
