This is a very comfortable hotel and the family who runs it is lovely! They took me to see bats flying at sunset and cooked incredible meals. I also did the full day safari - my guide was extremely knowledgeable and respectful of the animals’ environment.

It is 10 because there is no higher point. No need to spend word, just agreed with other comments. Nalin (host) defines a new level of hospitality.

Loved everything about the property- from the host to the little birds eating away in the front porch. We had booked this place for one night and wish we booked for more as it turned out to be the best accommodation we had in Sri Lanka in our trip. Randy took us around in the evening and we saw his beautiful village and could attend the local festival an hour away - we got really lucky. We woke up the next day for a 4:30 AM safari and Randy was there waiting for us with two bottles of water. Absolutely beautiful hospitality and kindness. We were in awe. Big thanks to Randy and his wife for such a lovely time in Yala and for making our anniversary such a special one.

Super clean, amazing and very attentive owner and staff and gorgeous view of the lake. The owner picked us up from the bus stop and showed us around the lakes. He is so knowledgeable about all the fauna and takes time to tell you about everything. We saw all kinds of birds, crocodiles, bats and the water buffalo. The owner showed us interesting places related to local culture and it was fascinating. The food and service were both exceptional. We did the safari tour and it was great but my favorite part of the trip was the Tissa tour by the hotel owner. Don’t miss it!

The homestay was beautiful, peaceful and clean, with a wonderful view out to the rice fields. The best part though was the amazing hospitality of Sanjeewa and his wife who went out of their way to help me and provide me with anything I needed. Oh and the food was great too! Perfect to stay before/after Yala safari, which they can organise for you.

    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.

    Was in Tissamaharama for Yala Safari, had booked the early morning Safari. Disappointed with the Safari as there were very few animals except.for.peacocks and spotted dear. Later into the ride our jeep driver and guide revealed we had entered through block 5 of the Safari and most the animals(Leopard, Bears) mostly are sighted in block 1 and 2. Block 1 and 2 were closed that day, maybe just our luck. So I guess check, with the Safari organizer before booking your safari as it quite expensive. Basically disappointed ☹️

    We had one of our best stays of our whole trip in Sri Lanka here. The owner was so kind and helpful. He drove us around to see birds and bats in the local area, which is a protected wildlife park. He even drove us into town to get food and offered to take us to the bus station on our last day. The room we stayed in was clean and spacious, with AC. The breakfast was delicious. We booked our Yala safari through the hotel, and this was awesome. If you're coming to Tissamaharama for the safari (or not), I definitely recommend staying here!

    The room was very clean, and air-conditioning was working very well. The staff was super friendly. The reception guy was very kind and helpful in every way. He accommodated all our needs. The food was the best in town, the potions were much bigger and cheaper! All the staff was very supportive and accommodating. The hotel is located in the center of Tissamaharama town which is very convenient. Highly recommend! Worth the price!
