Very nice and clean rooms. We stayed in a bungalow in the middle of the jungle. The bungalow had nice high ceilings, a little porch and aircondition. The hosts are very nice and made us feel very welcome. We had a nice Dinner surrounded by oil lamps in the middle of nature. The hosts organized a half Day Safari for us and packed a nice breakfast with fruits and sandwiches. The place is very close to the park entrance so we started at 5:30 am bit were still one of the first jeeps in the park. The beds are comfortablewe slept really well.

The room is quite spacious. It's the biggest room we've stayed in the whole Sri Lanka trip. The staff were very friendly. They helped us to prepare the other morning's breakfast package for the Safari tour. We left for the Safari at 5:30a, our breakfast had been there ready. It's at the end of a small village road, and there's a pond in front of the hotel. It's quiet.

A gem! Wonderful Sri Lankan architecture (inside/outside), great pool, friendly staff, good food. Room was spacious and very comfortable. Feels secluded but has all the amenities and is close to both Yala national park and Tissa city. Staff were extremely helpful. Likely best valued property in the region.

Our stay at Green Nest Yala has truly been the best experience of our entire trip in Sri Lanka. From the very first moment, Athula treated us like queens, with genuine warmth and outstanding hospitality. He is a wonderful person who made us feel at home at all times. He even prepared a delicious picnic for us to take on our safari, which made the experience even more special. This place combines comfort, nature, and an unmatched personal touch. I would recommend this stay to absolutely everyone. Forever grateful – we would come back a thousand times!

Fabulous luxury lodges with very large covered decks set in a very peaceful rural setting close to Yala and close to the beach. A very calming, tranquil place to stay. The bed is huge and extremely comfortable.. The bathroom is as large as many hotel rooms in itself and the additional outside cold shower is a very unusual touch. (And the indoor shower is excellent, too.) The lodges are arranged to enhance privacy and the staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The roof top swimming pool has a beautiful view over the sea and the food is excellent. Monkeys sometimes visit the grounds, as do a few cows and even occasionally an elephant - though not when we were there. A wide variety of birds surround you in the trees. The manager arranged an excellent half day safari to Yala for us with a very knowledgeable guide.
