Situated in Tanamalwila, 34 km from Udawalawe National Park and 26 km from Tissa Wewa, Thanamal-villa features accommodation with air conditioning and access to a garden with a barbecue.

The lodge offers an à la carte or Full English/Irish breakfast. We loved the accommodation, with a beautiful terrace at the front overlooking nature and the sunset. The owner was helpful in arranging a safari and for advising restaurants in the neighbourhood for take away (so we could it with the beautiful view). The sanitaire was clean.

Located in Yala, 6.6 km from Tissa Wewa and 24 km from Bundala Bird Sanctuary, Ranakeliya Lodge - Yala provides accommodation with free WiFi, air conditioning, a garden and a terrace.

The breakfast offers à la carte, Full English/Irish or Asian options. At the lodge you will find a restaurant serving Chinese, British and Indian cuisine. Vegetarian, dairy-free and halal options can also be requested. We stayed in a beautiful little house, everything was new, clean, and smelled fresh – truly exceptional for Sri Lanka. The staff were incredibly kind and helpful. Through the accommodation, we booked a full-day safari in the national park. We had a great jeep just for me, my wife, and our son. The driver was very accommodating, and we saw so much – including leopards (twice!), elephants, buffalos, crocodiles, birds, and more. It was absolutely amazing. After the safari, we enjoyed a barbecue at the resort, which was another unforgettable experience. Thank you – we definitely recommend this place!

Offering lake views, Green Nest Yala in Kirinda offers accommodation, an outdoor swimming pool, a garden, a shared lounge, a terrace and a restaurant. The lodge features both WiFi and private parking free of charge. I absolutely loved the setting, which had a view of the lake and, luckily, crocodiles!! The personnel were fantastic; they provided us complimentary beverages when we arrived and coffee the morning we left; they have always taken excellent care of us and beyond our expectations. They also offer a safari tour, which we took and it was great.

With pool views, Tranquil Wild is located in Tanamalwila and has a restaurant, room service, snack bar, garden, year-round outdoor pool and terrace.

Guests at the lodge can enjoy darts on site, or cycling in the surroundings. We had an exceptional stay at Tranquil Wild. The room was spotlessly clean, and the furniture was tastefully decorated. We were given a free room upgrade. The property's beautiful lake in front added to its charm. The Western and Sri Lankan food we enjoyed during our stay was outstanding. The owner of the property is very kind and personally ensures that guests are comfortable. She helped us book a Yala safari with a professional naturalist. We will definitely return. This property is a gem, and with the first-class service of the staff, there's no need to look further. We highly recommend staying at this property if you plan to visit Block 5 in Yala, as it is closer to Block 5.

Yala Village Eco Tree House has garden views, free WiFi and free private parking, situated in Tissamaharama, 10 km from Tissa Wewa.

There is a fully equipped shared bathroom with bidet and free toiletries.

Guests at the lodge can enjoy a Full English/Irish breakfast. Love it, love it, love it! Our hosts were a lovely family, very kind and helpful - they were very flexible with our check in and check out, organised a safari trip for us and helped us in getting dinner. The experience is totally recommended, however beware that it’s out in the nature, so you get really immersed in it, there might be some bugs in your room when you wake up ;) no worries though, each bed is equipped with a mosquito net, so you can sleep peacefully with sounds of nature.
