Glamping Sites in Tissamaharama

I had an absolutely unforgettable experience at Yala Wild Hut glamping site. This is located close to Yala National Park. Accommodation facilities are awesome, and the Food is really delicious and full credit goes to the crew for their hospitality. Tea on the rocks, the bush walk and safari were the clear highlights of my stay. I had evening tea on top of the rock and the view was amazing. After tea the bush walk was equally amazing, as I got to explore the bush and its various plant and animal species on foot. The Naturalist’s guidance was excellent at pointing out interesting facts and details about the environment, making the experience all the more enriching. I had an outdoor BBQ dinner experience which was great. Early morning, they arranged the Safari with an experienced guide which was incredibly knowledgeable and took me on exciting and informative tours of the surrounding wildlife. He does personal guided tours of the national park and takes you to the best spots to watch and wait for Leopards and Bear. I saw a variety of animals, including a leopard sprawled across the road, a tusker, mud-bathing buffaloes, and lots of spotted deer, up close and personal. Aside from the safari and bush walk, the camp itself was comfortable and well-maintained, and the staff was friendly and accommodating. I highly recommend Yala Wild Hut to anyone looking for a once-in-a-lifetime adventure immersed in the tranquility of the wilderness. Accommodation facilities are awesome. I would recommend the “Yala Wild Hut” to anyone.

A really special place, by a lake, with beautiful views and the sounds of nature around. Food was very good, especially the breakfast. Bed was really comfortable and the room (tent) dark. Staff were very helpful including by providing an enormous packed breakfast.

Wonderful stay, we were vey happy

Very aesthetic property with amazing, friendly staff! The breakfast and dinners were delicious. Safari can be organised easily through them. The WiFi was super fast too :)

Everything is perfect at Tribe Yala. It is an incredible and unique glamping experience. The “tents” (it is more of a 5 star hotel suite) are clean, spacious, fully equipped (private wifi and AC) and comfortable. We also had a private jacuzzi. Besides, the food is exceptional (one of the best we have had in Sri Lanka). We did the one day safari and it was certainly one of our favorite days of our entire trip. You get to see many animals while being accompanied by a wildlife specialist (ours was Kusar and he is very knowledgeable and friendly). Staff from the hotel met us inside the national park to bring us a delicious Sri Lankan lunch. Finally, the staff of the hotel is amazing. Thank you Rua and Latchan for your friendliness and professionalism. We will come back for sure!

Podi Hoona bush camp is a charming place, likely focused on eco-friendly accommodations and offering a closer experience with nature in the vicinity of Yala National Park. If you're planning a visit there, it could be a great opportunity to explore the natural beauty and wildlife of the area while enjoying a unique stay.

dinner by the bonefire was very impressive

We stayed at the leopards nest for 1 night and it truly was an unforgettable experience. After reading some mixed reviews, it exceeded our expectations and I am so happy we planned this into our itinerary. The hotel sent driver information which we shared with our driver and everything was seemless. The safari truck was waiting for us and we did the afternoon safari. The guy was great, really knowledgeable- we were lucky enough to see elephants really close up and many other amazing animals. He then took us to the hotel around 6pm. We had a bbq dinner which was very cute, the food was really good quality too. We booked a sky nest and had a couple of little frog visitors in the bathroom but we didn’t mind, they added to the memories! The sky nest was really clean and more comfortable than we were expecting. WiFi only worked in the main restaurant areas but that’s okay, it was nice to be off the grid for one night. Again, breakfast exceeded our expectations and the hotel liaised with our driver for a smooth pick up. The staff are lovely and I fully recommend for one night if you want a safari and jungle glamping experience.

Location is very calm and breakfast is really good. It is fresh and refreshing. Taste is good.

Everything was excellent, we were staying in the tree house and it was beautiful, highly recommended! We also booked the Yala Safari with them and it was really nice, we saw lots of animals and the guide was really kind and friendly. Overall, it was a fab experience :)
