Utsikten och läget är bra men rummet var inte värt 200 dollar alls! Frukosten var bara ok! Hela byggnaden har mycket potential men det märks att efter pandemin behöver en ordentlig uppfräschning!

Ett härligt hotell på en extremt vacker plats! Poolen var klockren!

Otroligt vackert men lever på gammal glans.
Vi bokade ett av de små "husen" och fick en nedervåning med terrass utåt havet. UNDERBART! Vacker design och bra planerat rum med stort badrum med badkar och stor dusch med utsikt utåt. Dock känns hotellet som att det lever på nån sorts gammal glans. Personalen var inte så trevlig eller engagerad förutom Susanned. Han var fantastisk och hjälpsam på alla sätt! Minibaren i rummet var låst så man fick ringa receptionen varje gång man eventuellt ville ha något. Sofforna va lite hål i och kändes gamla men sköna. Soldäcket vid poolen och det mesta annat var riktigt slitet. Tråkigt för det är ett Underbart ställe verkligen! Magisk utsikt och vackra hus men dåligt skött och personalen är verkligen inget att ha. (Förutom susand åter igen, kanon) Dessutom marknadsför de sig så gott som enbart med massa härliga bilder på middag nere på stranden men när vi kom dit så sa de att de inte hade det längre. "Det fanns för länge sedan när ryssarna ville ha det" vilket kändes som ett extremt konstigt svar att få när det är bilder på det överallt både online och stora skyltar när man är där. Dessutom med nonchalans. Rummet var inte färdigt heller när vi kom. Sätt in Susande som manager och ta bort de andra så tror jag stället skulle leva upp igen. Det krävs bara att någon bryr sig om stället känns det som.

Decent hotel close to Yala
We stayed one night at Laya Safari. We chose the hotel based on location, since we were doing a safari in Yala early the morning after. The hotel is really just a 10 minutes drive to the national park, which was very convenient. We were a bit surprised of the condition of the hotel, it looks great on the pictures, but we felt that it was a bit worn down in comparison. However, the room was clean and comfortable, so for a night it was definitely OK. The view from the balcony was fantastic! Clear view of the ocean. The beach is really nice for a walk, but a bit rough sea to swim (December). There are also other hotel options in the exact same area that I would explore for another visit.

Bra läge vid Yala safari
Fantastiskt ställe direkt utanför (10min) Yala naturreservatet och safariturer. Jättefina rum och härligt poolområde med trevlig personal. Bra mat och utbud. Inte badbart i havt när vi var där pga strömmar... Havet ligger en bit nedanför så man ligger vid poolen...

Wonderful oasis in Yala
When we arrived at Laya Safari, the property was virtually empty - and we could hardly believe it, as it was one of my top hotel experiences…and I have spent hundreds of nights in hotels. While the road to get to this little beachside oasis is very bumpy, it is well worth the ride. The rooms have an amazing view of the pool area and the coastline and while the current is too strong to swim in the sea, the roar of the ocean is the perfect sound to fall asleep to. The new manager has taken a lot of pride in the property and put up some very insta-worthy amenities like swings, a tree with lampoons and a small wooden boat. You also get a visit from a wild elephant each night (I‘m guessing semi-wild - they do feed it with fruits which I am not totally in favor of but the bull looked very healthy). We would really like to highlight the friendliness of every single employee from the receptionists to the waiters and poolboys - everyone went out of their way to make us comfortable. Meals were delicious and well-priced. We particularly loved the pineapple fritters for desert. As the hotel is very close to the park, you get picked up a bit later by the jeeps which allows you to sleep a bit longer. The pool itself comes with very comfortable sun loungers and the wonderful water is impressively clean (considering it was stormy each night we were there). The only suggestion we would have would be to open a small souvenir shop. Overall, we loved this place and will recommend highly. Thanks!

Das Hotel liegt an einer traumhaften Lage. Leider ist überall, wo man hinschaut, alles defekt oder verrostet. Der Garten ist ungepflegt und gleicht einer Wüste. Der "neu renovierte" eigentlich sehr schöne Pool ist weder fertiggestellt noch in einem akzeptablen Zustand. Leider auch ungepflegt. Das Essen war nicht überragend (Dessert, Panna Cotta) war ein steinharter Mehlklumpen. Das erste mal auf der ganzen Welt haben wir in diesem Hotel erlebt, dass sie kein Cola haben. "Wichtige" Leute, die zuletzt kamen, wurden vor allen zahlenden Kunden bedient. Wartezeit für Wein und Wasser ca 40 Minuten.

Visiting Yala
We stayed here for four nights to visit Yala. The hotel is less than 10 minutes drive to the park. The service, and friendliness of the staff is superb. The view from the rooms, pool, and restaurant was beautiful. We could hear the waves crashing from our room. The wooden decks are definitely in need of replacement due to exposure to the salty ocean air, but the interior of our room was nice and comfortable. A lot of the rooms look like they were being upgraded during our stay as well.

Nice location not far from the entrance of the national park. We saw both elephants and buffalos on the property of the hotel which made it a bit out of the ordinary (in a good way). The hotel was overall in good shape and was nice, but the rooms were not that clean (brown spots on the toilet etc) and we struggled communicating with the staff (they were also just hanging around, not being very service minded). The guys at the reception on the other hand was very helpful to all our inquiries and gave a great impression! Overall good stay.

No hot water for shower at night!
Stayed 1 night for safari. Perfect location for early safari, you don’t have to wake so early. Staff forgot my take away breakfast but it’s fine coz it would be a simply sandwich only. Booked a Half Bord Plan as no where to eat nearby, the dinner was buffet style but not much choices of food and not taste good. The most horrible thing was there would be out of hot water for shower at night or/and your neighbor used up it all. Last but not least, my driver said his room full of mosquitoes and I found the same applied to the public pool as well ( some dead bodies found in the pool)

2*, at MOST
The lenght of this review is directly related to my level of annoyance and irritation. 1. ROOMS The room advertised online /surrounding views is literally one of the 22 rooms - the other 21 has blinds around the entire place or everyone would look directly into their neighbours rooms. The shower also inexplicably has blinds - which has a nice gathering of black mould. Everything else in the room is old and shabby - shabby 'white' mats next to the bed, stained mustard couches, frayed towels. The bathroom window was so dirty you could barely see outside. The porch is worn out and faded, as well as the furniture. 2 pillows on the bed, with an additional 2 in the closet, sans pillow covers. The icetray was broken with hair in - still waiting for a replacement. Also the aircon was leaking and only one bedside lamp was working. 2. STAFF The young staff mean well, but has clearly not had any training - english is v v basic which can get rather frustrating. Also v unproffesional with check-in as they kept chatting in Sinhalese (I assume) and giggling like teenagers. On the first morning we returned to a dirty room at 1pm - when we called reception they informed us that we had our "Do not disturb" sign on the door - a tad impossible as we didn't even have one in the room. Also not ideal to walk out of your room and then have to step over 4 pairs of shoes that the cleaners have kicked of in front of your door. Room service is also a shambles- the wrong thing arr - see rest on TripAd

Fantastic base for a safari, lots of wildlife
Stunning location right on the beach, noone else around. The room was fab, second/third floors so great view from the balcony, sunset especially. Not many guests while we were there so dinner was table d'hote, several choices, all were tasty, well presented, fresh and plentiful. Staff friendly ans attentive. Best bit is wild elephant who seems to regularly roam around the grounds, eating the palm fronds and drinking the lily pond! Also saw boar, hares, iguana, plenty birds in grounds.

Dear Valuable Guest, Thank you for taking the time to write a review. We are sorry for the inconvenience faced, However, the reason we do not provide any Safari tours from the hotel level. Because there are lots of local operators who do not have a proper insurance cover and unless they are registered with us because if an accident happens the person who recommended the operator will be responsible. When we provide safari jeeps we assure the guest of jeeps in good condition with valid insurance and trained registered drivers only. Thank you again for your feedback and we wish you all the best in your future. Sincerely,

My partner and I just spent two weeks in Sri Lanka staying at hotels with similar prices as Laya - Laya was by far the worst one. The hotel is operated by the military - likely seized after the civil war. It has a creepy vibe. We went for a walk and were followed on the beach. The property has not been maintained and is derelict and in disarray - broken boards, black mold on the blinds in the room. The restaurant is very expensive and almost inedible. We waited 1.25 hours for lunch one day. Safari's are overpriced compared to what you can get elsewhere. Do not stay here.

The catering was nowhere as good as last time. We understood that the hotel was suffering after the terrorist attacks, but the food was not good. A simpler menu with more fresh food could have been provided, rather than trying to keep the whole menu and failing to do individual choices. I’m sure normal standards will come back when more visitors do.

Great rooms with stunning views. Rooms could use a little cleaning since curtains were moldy from the damp air. Other than that stunning.

Overall it wasn't a terrible stay but the staff are completely unprofessional. 1. Tell you the wrong price of the restaurant buffet and then proceed to add 1000 rupees to the bill 2. Knock on your hotel room door and immediately try to open it. What the hell? 3. Try to 'escort' you back to your room after dinner citing 'wild animals around'. There are better ways to try and earn a tip, this isn't one of them. Just forget it - stay at Jetwing instead.

Mauvais entretien des l'établissement, bâtiments vieillots, problème de propreté que ce soit des espaces communs (piscines mal nettoyee) ou des chambres (draps tachés, sables dans la chambre). Nous ne recommandons pas cet établissement.

Good hotel with potential with a little work
The hotel is set within the park itself so you are very likely to see the wildlife during your stay. The room itself was lovely, a large 4 poster bed on a raised level with steps dropping down into a living area with a sofa, TV and tea/coffee making facilities. A nice touch is the water bottles are 1 litre rather than the usual 500ml. The room is air conditioned and spacious, the bathroom again was large with both a bath and separate walk in shower with wood flooring and a stone wall. There are complimentary body wash, shampoo, conditioner and shower cap and a ring light magnification mirror too. The balcony has two chairs and leads out onto a walk way with the beach right in front, as we were on the ground floor we could wall right out onto the beach from our room. We also woke up to a herd of buffalo outside the next morning! The breakfast was included with our room and theres a good selection, the only downside is that you have to choose what you'd like the night before, even the fruit juice must be chosen the night before which for me was a negative as you may feel like something different on the morning. We chose toast and pastries and there was a good selection, the banana cake was delicious! There is also tea and coffee. We had dinner at the hotel which was a set 3 course meal. The price was quite reasonable considering although the cocktails are more expensive than most places and a 10% service charge is also added. Overall I would happily stay again.
