Green House Yala is a little cottage on my land where I live close by with my family. You can relax in privacy but if you want support I'm here for you. The land is located in Kirinda and less than 300 meters walking distance from Elephant Reach Hotel. Perfect place to explore Yala National Park. Guest's can reach the park in less than 15 minutes via the Palatupana Entrance. Kirinda beach + a wild beach and Rock Temple are a 7 min walk only. we are proud to welcome you soon to our place!
