Wonderful family! Very accommodating, they go out of their way to make you comfortable. Cool treehouse like structure overlooking a gorgeous rice field. They arranged a Safari in Yala Park, drivers, transportation to Ella and drove me to the bank. They also took me to a spot with a bat migration! Very safe, secure spot too. Great host family and space!

The best stay in Sri Lanka so far. Priya was so helpful! He sent us the bus schedule from Ella to Tissa, he drove us around the lake to see crocodiles and birds, and bats at a late time, he also arranged the safari in Yala for us for a great price, and prepared an early breakfast before leaving at 4:30. He drove us with his tuktuk when we needed to catch the bus to Tangalle and checked that we had successfully arrived. The room was also cozy and the location of the hotel is not far from the main road.

Very comfortable stay for the night before our safari. Booked a fan room and the fan was very effective. Very clean room. It is a family run guesthouse and they are all so kind and accommodating. Garden is beautiful, overlooks rice paddies with lots of nature and the garden itself is like a little world to explore. The mother of the family cooks for guests too, ate twice when we stayed here. Chicken pasta was delicious and very reasonably priced with huge portion. The son very kindly got up at 4am to open the gate and see us off for our safari. You can book Safari through the hotel too.

Loved this stay, the treehouse was adorable and the hosts were incredibly kind. We got vegetarian dinner and it was delicious. They helped us arrange two amazing safaris as well, I wish we had more time

The entire family that run this place are about the nicest people you will ever meet. They did above and beyond to help me out, notably finding and then physically hailing mystery bus #10 direct to Elle which saved me 7 hours travel time.
Facilities were clean, comfortable and relaxing even though, because I was too cheap to pay for air conditioning, a little hot in the early evenings. I suggest you choose more wisely. They have free bikes, which I was unable to take advantage of but others raved about and the on site food was very good.
Bring guitar pics, music, and a few licks for their talented son.

The owner is super friendly and goes further in other to help.
On the day we arrived there was a huge rain flooding the streets and creating a black out in some areas. Our place had that problem and he stayed up until 3am trying to solve it, which he did.
Also the breakfast was amazing: egg hoppers, Dal and coconut roti.
The rooms are great also and the place looks beautiful by the lake. It looks just like in the pictures.

My wife and I had a very pleasant stay at Yaye. The setting is in the countryside with access to magical walks through rice paddies and farm land with opportunities to connect with friendly locals. Walks can take you all the way to seaside with many bird and water buffalo sightings. The accommodations at Yaye are modest, but adequate. The courtyard setting is beautiful and zen-like. The fish dinner prepared by host was one of the best meals we had while we were in Sri Lanka. Host was gracious and accommodating! Yaye for us was very memorable.
Warm and welcoming guest houses are ideal for travelers who prefer laid-back accommodations with a personal touch. Usually family run, these hosts will provide local recommendations and even optional meals. Guest houses sometimes feature a cozy living room or a garden – and are still cheaper than most regular hotels.
Beautiful location, close to two of the lakes. We had a lovely stroll in the afternoon and early evening to go watch the fruit bats and birds. A/C worked well. Very friendly hosts. The guesthouse is cheap compared to others in the area; dinner was also cheap.
Great host. He helped with some currency exchange (I did not got enough from the airport), arranged a good (and cheap) dinner on the new year's eve when everything around was closed, helped with a tuk tuk.
Was very attentive and kind.
Room was also better than I expected. AC worked fine, the window blinds worked perfectly.
Great hosts great food. Local
Host organised safari much cheaper than anywhere else. Still about 45 minutes to national park. But very knowledgeable with lots of experience. Comfortable safari truck.
The property is beautiful set in thick green surrounds. Room is large bed is comfy. Ac not very good with no fan meant it stayed a little stuffy inside
Wow our host was the best! He was so incredibly helpful. Fixed the aircon right away, helped us with repairs on the tuktuk and brought us cool drinks and coffee exactly when we needed it😁. The rooms are big and comfortable, with a large bed. Nice shower, quiet location. Lastly we booked an amazing safari in the National Park @ the guesthouse. Couldn't be more satisfied with this accommodation!
Indika is a very charming host and also a great chef. We had dinner twice and enjoyed both times.
The room is as shown in online photos with a big comfortable bed. When the restaurant/reception area is completed it will only enhance the experience.
Indika organised our Yala Safari, the bus to Colombo and even drove us to the bus stand in his tuk tuk.
We wish he and his family all the best for his dream boutique hotel.
The Hotel has a great location with a beautiful on the rice fields, really quiet and relaxing.
The host was really nice, he booked us our safari tour in german (he speaks german).
The location was okay, supermarkets and restaurants nearby.
Mostly clean
Absolutely amazing hosts - really helpful! We were greeted on arrival by a cold king coconut to drink and a cold washcloth, fresh fruits were brought to us during our stay and we booked a great safari through them.
The room is a nice size and clean. The accommodation is really pretty, surrounded by plants, and a great location near some local restaurants and an area where fruit bats live. You can see thousands of them nesting in the trees. Wifi is good and bed is large.
Shanta was an amazing host. We stayed for 2 nights at his place. Really quiet and peaceful house and surroundings. He helped us with everything. We did the Bundalla safari and went to Kirinda beach. Also Shanta made a delicious meal for us with different kind of curry's and also buffalo curd. We highly recommend to stay at Yaye Guesthouse. We enjoyed every moment of it.
