I stayed with my friend in a tent for 2 nights to allow us to safari at Yala- The campsite is beautiful with lots of nature right outside. There is hammocks and chairs in the patio area to enjoy the surroundings. The tent is super clean and sturdy and can be kept cool, the beds are comfortable and the bathroom is amazing. Our host Asanka was so nice and easygoing and helped us with anything we needed- he made us packed breakfast for our safari, showed us the sights in Tissa on our first night (if you get time, definitely go to watch the bats leave the lake as the sun sets- amazing experience!) and helped us figure out public transport to our next location- really a great host!

We enjoyed our stay at Chamith’s hotel. He owns the place with his brother and they’ve had a really hard go at it since covid. You can now really tell they’re doing their absolute best to give you an amazing experience. The bungalows are new, clean, large and have everything you need. The owners prepared us food for the evenings and even packed us breakfast for our very early safari (very tasty!). All in all, if you like wildlife and nature, don’t think twice before coming here! Thank you Chamith.

Had a great stay at the hotel! Everything matched the booking price, and the staff were super helpful. The room was clean and cozy, with no issues at all. The location is a bit remote, but they offer a convenient ride for a fair price. Loved the peaceful atmosphere and had a good night's sleep. Would definitely recommend it for a relaxing escape!

The food varieties provided tasted really good, the calm environment with the lake view is really amazing also the service given was very friendly and professional.
Ideal for nature lovers looking for a self-sufficient getaway, lodges are fully furnished and have kitchen facilities. Usually made of wood and surrounded by forests or mountains, lodges can be part of a group or a single unit. More remote than vacation homes, lodges are popular for safari trips.
The staff was perfect, I can only say that the experience was perfect. We were there for a night to attend a safari. We asked the staff a day before, he managed to do it, they book online ticket for us so it’s was faster than the other jeeps.
The dinner and the breakfast under the tree is amazing and beautiful !
If you want to live a real safari experience this is the lodge !
We are two French people and we can guarantee that the tent is clean, AC helps a lot and the shower is beautiful 😍
Thanks again for your kindness !
The perfect place for an authentic safari glamping experience - sitting out under the stars at night and listening to the sounds of nature. The lodge is run by a lovely family who are friendly and professional. They also cook delicious food so I highly recommend having a candlelit dinner at the lodge!
Beautiful, comfy and spacious safari tent. Lovely outdoor area with a real safari feel. Amazing food served under the stars each night. We went on a safari organised by Ranakeliya lodge and owner Thisara joined us which was a pleasure and great experience. 100% recommended this place
Boutique safari style hotel, reminiscent of an expensive African lodge. Quiet location on the edge of rice paddies with only 8 guest rooms. Fantastic pool and bar area. Large rooms and bed. Nothing too much trouble for the staff, they were all very eager to please.
A stunning property with only a few guests.
We stayed in the tented lodge for one night. The lodge is amazing. It is beautifully built, very clean with mosquito nets on every entrance and window. The open air bathroom rounded up the glamping experience. There is electricity and even wifi in the tents. We booked two safaris and one starlight BBQ. The safari organisation went smooth and the guides were really good. The dinner was outstanding and one of our highlights of the whole vacation. The owners are super friendly. Would definately recommend!

The lodge is really nice and well aligned with nature - beautiful view from the rock just beside of the main building. Very quite - just nature sounds. There is also a small and warm temperatured pool that invites to relax after a safari day in the yala national park. The staff is really friendly and supportive - always smiling. We really liked it here.
Unbeatable location, right next to a beautiful secluded beach and only 15 minute drive from Yala national park. The hosts are fantastic and have created a very special place, we felt like guests rather than clients. The home cooked dinner was amazing (likely the best culinary experience we’ve had during hotel stays), and it’s very nice to be able to chat with other guests lodging at the resort. Hosts can also help arrange safaris (but you can book directly, if preferred). I loved it so much that we came back twice :) can only recommend!
Everything is fantastic! We stayed here for two nights while going on safari in Yala with the all inclusive package. The staff at the Lodge were wonderful, and gave us everything we needed. The meals were delicious with lots of different menu options to choose from. The room was clean and comfortable with good aircon. The pool was also great. The perfect place to stay in Yala!
This lovely lodge was like your own little house. It was near to the owners house so you felt safe but had a lovely rustic feel with lots of nature surrounding you. Very clean and good size bed. Air conditioning was great. Family and owner were extremely friendly and welcoming. They cooked amazing authentic food. The bbq under the stars was a fabulous touch. Great proximity to Yala National park for a safari. The lodge arranged everything.
