Hotell nära Yala nationalpark

“We were the only guests in this sprawling property within the buffer zone of the Yala National park. The BBQ dinner under the stars was worth remembering. The whole property kept the entire electric generation system running for only 2 guests. The air conditioning was perfect and the view from above the canopy was very good. Mention must be made of Patisa and his team. The chef was wonderful with his breakfast and dinner. A great stay. Never felt unsafe as were the only guest on the day.”

“Ett lyxhotell, men för stort och opersonligt. Vi skulle nog inte välja att bo där igen.”

“Staff did'nt know english and also rude. For dinner initially they told us that only 2 items are available. Only after another guest who was sitting in the next table mentioned a menu then they brought the menu. Both food quality and service was poor”

“Tyvärr oerhört okompetent personal på plats - allt var väldigt rörigt, oorganiserat och dessutom dyrt. Vi betalade 55 dollar för vår sämsta middag och lunch under våra 3 veckor på Sri Lanka.”

“Trevliga stugor i en skogsdunge där några har utsikt mot havet. Härlig pool med utsikt över vattenhål med vattenbufflar och krokodiler. Maten var bra och trevligt bemötande med personal som pratar bra enelska. Bra för en kortare vistelse och safari, men att stanna en hel vecka blir nog lite långtråkigt. Man får inte röra sig hur man vill utanför hotellområdet då det finns vilda elefanter och andra farliga djur (hotellet ligger nationalparken). Det finns inte heller något gym, så den som gillar...

“Vilket rum, vilket poolområde!!! Personalen var fantastisk. Hotellet är nytt och lyxigt och fräscht! ”

“This is fabulous hotel! Very picturesque, clean, modern and incredibly friendly and helpful staff. The pool is a great size with a modern gym. We stayed here for easy acess to Yala national park which is only about 20 mins away. ”

“This is a cool unique place to stay on the edge of Yala park. The staff is friendly and goes above and beyond for your comfort and needs. Dinning was delicious and star lit dinner over looking the firefly lit jungle. ”

“Where does one start, Chena Huts is absolutely amazing on so many levels. From the moment we arrived we knew this was going to be top notch. The warm friendly welcome from the staff, the fantastic surroundings and the beautiful property. The check in was swift and relaxed by the professional reception staff, our hut was a paradise in itself. The bar and the restaurant delivered great food and drinks. The housekeeping did a wonderful job of cleaning and turndown service. The safaris were great,...

“Super exclusive base for safaries. Fantastic food from breakfast to lunch and dinner, very knowledgeable guides and great service overall. Would recommend to anyone looking for a premium experience in Yala.”

“Seemed the best hotel in the area. Room big with a terrace leading to the very attractive large pool with the lake and a tree house to climb. Monkeys about who were fun to watch. Breakfast more to Asian tastes than mine but French toast, potato’s, fruit and breads available.It was very quiet during our stay with more staff than guests! Good choice for Yala but recommend the wild edge restaurant opposite in the evening for a drink.”

“The room was ok, with good views of the lake, but found lots of creepy crawlies and insects in our room one inside bed, and one inside of a folded towel, the food was not that brill, we ordered prawn curry but they gave us shrimps, with watery gravy, probably ok for the locals. ”

“Hotel a 3 km de la ville, assez éloigné sans service a proximité. Safari trés cher. J'avais résérvé une chambre mais a mon arrivée il n'y en avait pas alors on m'a proposé le dortoir au meme tarif se que j'ai refusé et aprés discussion j'ai obtenu une tente-chambre. Trés bien dans la grosse savane mais prés de la grande route pas nécessaire du tout. Personnel serviable mais on sans que l'argent et le but premier du centre. ”

“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! ”

“The owners and staff went out of their way to ensure the stay was as comfortable as possible. Great location with real homely atmosphere. ”

“All in all, happy to stay here, just be prepared to do a lot of extra work to check-in. The location is incorrectly indicated on Facebook, TripAdvisor & hotels.com, and is 10km north of Tissa. Easily accessed by public transit if you've got the correct address. Make sure they know you're coming, as they were unaware I had made the reservation. If you can't find their phone #, try them on Facebook, or worst case scenario, go to to their Tile & Bathroom Shop, next to Sampath Bank... Don't...

“Hi, the property was nice, but in the middle of the rice fields. They did not serve dinner, so you have to take a tuktuk to town. The room itself was large and beautiful, but the AC did not work and there was no fridge in the room.”

“Absolutely beautiful property. Right on the beach with easy access. Hanuman langur monkeys were right outside the room. They were so cute! Room had poor lighting, but everything else was perfect! Hotel next door has a superb buffet- best i have ever eaten in terms of variety! Access road was bad and there was no place for our driver to stay so he had to find his own lodging.”
