Staying at Yakaduru – Safari Camp was one of the absolute highlights of my trip! The atmosphere is magical – surrounded by nature, peaceful, and beautifully designed with so much love for detail. The tents are incredibly cozy and comfortable, offering the perfect blend of adventure and relaxation. Waking up to the sounds of the jungle was just amazing. The team was outstanding – warm, welcoming, and always ready to help. They really go out of their way to make you feel at home. The food was fantastic – fresh, flavorful, and made with care. The safari organized through the camp was perfectly arranged and unforgettable. If you’re looking for an authentic and relaxing wildlife experience with wonderful hosts, this is the place to be. Highly recommended!

Staying at Wild Coast Tented Lodge was truly a lifetime experience. The rooms and facilities are absolutely out of this world — they manage to perfectly blend raw jungle nature with high-end luxury. From the moment we arrived, we felt like we were part of something truly special. The location is incredible — you’re literally in the jungle, surrounded by wildlife, with the sound of nature all around you. Our tented cocoon was stunning: beautifully designed, spacious, and incredibly comfortable, with attention to every little detail. What made the experience even more unforgettable was the amazing staff. Everyone was incredibly friendly, attentive, and always ready to accommodate any need. You can tell they genuinely care about making your stay perfect. This isn’t just a hotel stay — it’s an adventure, a retreat, and a 5-star escape all in one. I can’t recommend it enough!

Mayur's open Villa allows for the jungle breeze to flow through its beautifully appointed spaces. Being there is incredibly soothing and the open plan living area blends the outdoor-indoor dynamic seamlessly. The garden is full of birds and a couple of resident peacocks keep an eye on you for good measure ;) The food balances punchy flavours with delicate precision; it is wholesome and blends eastern and western influences through creative and thoughtful menus. The rooms are spacious and the bathrooms are signature Nyne. Safari's were highlighted by thoughtful touches like being given a pair of Mayur Lodge's own binoculars for our use was standard. And the epic picnic baskets that we got for our safaris! Warm butter cake, sandwiches, and flasks of hot tea and coffee and chilled water add a touch of sophistication to Yala's safari excitement. The staff were also extremely accommodating and went out of their way with kids meals and customising our menus for dietary preferences. The icing on the cake was the complimentary car wash at the end of our stay! The perfect sensory reset - calming visuals of unique Nyne design, the sound of birds, the feel of the breeze, beautiful flavours, and the smell of the jungle - especially after a bit of rain. Pure magic :)

Lovely hotel with a good room and nice swimming pool. Staff were really friendly and helpful when I cut my leg and got plasters for her. The restaurant manager, Samphah, ensured that we had a fabulous Sri Lankan curry for dinner. The location was convenient to access Yala NP. We went on an early Safari in Yala NP and they supplied a really nice packed breakfast. Paid by credit card with no charges.

Rooms are very comfortable, spacious, light and furnished with an eye for detail (fi shower head designed as a small waterfall). We loved all these small details, which you also find at the swimming pool! Our driver dropped us at the intersection with the main road, where the accomodation picked us up for the last 2km (5minutes). No problem at all. Very good kitchen. Very attentive staff. Swimming pool was a plus because of the hot wheather. Monkeys on the roof were a plus as well :-). Nice place, don't hesitate!
