Arriving at Art Yala my mouth fell open. Located at the lake with a beautiful terrace and the interior design could be found in a magazine. With the most delicious vegetarian rice & curry, a bathroom like a ballroom hall and a bed where you never want to come out made clear that my stay was too short. And the safari with the best and most friendly guide Dulitha made it complete. Thank you!

Gem of a place. As mentioned in other reviews the rooms are basic BUT comfortable and clean. For the price they are more than perfect. The setting itself was wonderful - right by the lake, surrounded by wildlife. In the evening, the host took us by tuktuk/scooter for a free tour of the lakes where we saw varans, bats, many birds including two beautiful owls !, and even a (harmless) snake. I booked my Yala safari with the host the day before and we could tell that the driver was more experienced than others. We saw all the wildlife one could see in Yala - leopards, crocodiles, varans, many birds, elephants, mongooses and even a sloth bear ! Perfect place, I'm happy I choose it.

Nalin was the best gost I had in Sri Lanka - so helpful, friendly, hospitable. I originally booked this place for the safari, but I was pleasantly surprised by how much there was to explore nearby. Beautiful lakes, jungles, temples, a bat viewpoint, and plenty of nature… Nalin also provided me with a bicycle, making it easy to explore the surroundings. The dinner prepared by Nalin’s wife was absolutely delicious. The room had everything I needed. I would definitely come back and highly recommend this place to nature lovers!

The room is extremely clean. Everything he gave us was fresh from his garden. We wish we spent more time there! Randy, the owner, took us on a tour (he gave us HIS motorbike to ride around and he was riding his bicycle) to see his garden and his village. We stopped and went fishing. He explained so many things around the area. He also gave us binoculars to watch birds. We enjoyed this more than our Yala Safari!! The day we checked out, I forgot a precious gold and diamond necklace in the room. As soon as Randy saw it, he informed us, but we were already in our next stop (3 and a half hours away). He insisted on bringing it (we suggested shipping, but he refused as "it could be stolen"). He rode public transportation to bring it to Mirissa and went back 3 and a half hours again immediately.

It should be on everyone’s itinerary!

It should be on everyone’s itinerary! The safari was amazing- go for the all day! And Jami Riverside Hotel is run by a wonderful host couple and the accommodations were comfortable, clean and affordable. They will make all the safari arrangements with the park for you if you wish. We had a wonderful driver -PHN Kasun Sampath.

Tissamaharama is a fantastic base for anyone looking to explore the natural beauty and rich culture of southern Sri Lanka. It's perfectly located for Yala National Park safaris, offering easy access to incredible wildlife encounters. Beyond the safaris, the town itself has a calm, local vibe with beautiful lakes and ancient temples to discover. You'll find plenty of local restaurants and shops, making it easy to enjoy authentic Sri Lankan experiences. It's a great spot for both adventure and relaxation, and I highly recommend spending some time here!

The owner of Serenity lake advices us to visit Yala safari, Sithul pawwa magul viharaya and sithul pawwa a super history with beautiful scenery, which we did and we're very grateful for his advice. We returned to the serenity lake to have lunch before heading off. Requested for a village kind of lunch with the local veggies and it was served on a lotus leaf... The most delicious meal it was. We had lunch at Reds and at the Serenity lake .

The location is excellent and the resort is real value for money . The food was excellent . The rooms were nice . The toiletries in the bathrooms needs to improve . The bathroom needs exhaust fans as it can get quite stuffy . The resort manager Mr Upal is a nice friendly bloke and is exceptional in his service . Overall a very pleasant experience .

This is a great location to stay if you want to visit the national parks and My Village will organise safaris to the four parks in the area either a half or full day. The local town is not a tourist town but it's great to wander around looking in the local shops.

Our best stay in Sri Lanka! From the moment we arrived the staff were so helpful. We were able to book our safari through them to Yala. The safari was so good as the driver made sure we got to see Leopards and many other animals. We also got given a lovely takeaway breakfast from the hotel as we had to leave very early. The hotel and room were both Safari/Sri Lankan style with a modern twist. The pool area is very clean and stylish. Really enjoyed our stay!
