Located within 10 km of Tissa Wewa and 27 km of Situlpawwa, Go Yala Hostel provides rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Tissamaharama. The property is set 4.6 km from Ranminitenna Tele Cinema Village, 10 km from Tissamaharama Raja Maha Vihara and 12 km from Kataragama Temple. The property is non-smoking and is situated 35 km from Bundala Bird Sanctuary. I stayed at Go Yala Hostel and honestly it was one of the best experiences I’ve had in Sri Lanka. The place is clean, comfortable, and very peaceful, surrounded by nature and the farm. The rooms are air-conditioned, the beds are comfortable, and everything feels well cared for. What really makes this hostel special is the atmosphere and the people. The host is incredibly friendly and always ready to help with anything, transport, food, or planning activities. I joined their eco-kitchen experience and village tour, and it felt very authentic. The food was fresh and delicious, cooked with ingredients from the farm. I also booked my Yala safari through the hostel, and it was super well organized with a great driver who explained everything and really tried to find animals. It was a smooth and stress free experience. For the price, you get way more than expected. It feels like a mix of hostel comfort, homestay warmth, and eco-village experience. I definitely recommend Go Yala Hostel to anyone visiting Tissamaharama or planning a Yala safari. I would love to come back again!
