The host and all the staff members are extremely helpful. We arrived around lunch time and via Whatsapp we coordinated our lunch order, so we we arrived, we could immediately enjoy the lovely lunch. The rooms are extremely large, which is ideal for a family. We enjoyed sunny weather, but even when it rains, you feel super comfy and cozy in the villa. The kids loved the outing to the beach and the garden area. We had a lovely long weekend!

Everything was outstanding! The pool and the huge garden are perect for relaxing after a day of safari. The team also arranged a safari for us which was really cool for a fair price. Special thanks to Upul and the whole team for the wonderful stay and the awesome curries! Definitely recommend the place to everyone.

it was an incredible experience from start to finish, with an amazing staff team that made it the brilliant experience it was; they make a real difference. The room and facilities are gorgeous, with a lot of attention to detail to all aspects of accommodation, dining area and safari game drives. We were always well looked after in terms of food and drink, you even have a tasty snack box for the safari drive! The game drive is professionally delivered by a great team who are knowledgeable and familiar with the park; with their experience and some luck of course, we saw leopards on both drives we were entitled to with our stay! The dining experience was top, with a great menu for both food and drinks. We even had a beach side evening meal that was spectacular. Overall we cannot recommend more, and are highly interested in returning and visiting their other 2 establishments in Sri Lanka.

We had a great time staying at wild trails! The property and the surroundings are absolutely beautiful! The tents / houses are spacious, clean and very stylish and staying there gives you the feeling of being out in the wilderness. The staff and in particular the manager were incredibly friendly and helpful throughout our stay and made us feel very welcome and well taken care off. The dinner outside under the night sky is also a beautiful experience! Highly recommend this place to anyone coming to the area / looking to explore Yala!!

Since our arrival, we have been treated with immense respect, and all the staff members are wonderfully pleasant and helpful. The surroundings are a peaceful oasis, the food is incredibly delicious, and the bedroom is very clean. We visited a safari, and the hotel assisted us with a driver and a guide—which allowed us to see elephants and even a leopard in the wild! A heartfelt thank you for such a wonderful welcome and unforgettable experiences; we highly recommend this place and will definitely return. ☺️🙏❤️

The camp is beautifully located just outside the Yala national park. Tents were cosy and safe. The staff was welcoming and so kind to us. Food was delicious, a lot of coconut was used. Guided safari and the bushwalk were the highlight of our stay. We learnt a lot about animals and saw some rare night birds as well. Thank you Makini for all the amazing memories. Wish you the best!

This is the most worthwhile hotel on our Sri Lanka trip! The photos cannot fully capture the comfort and beauty of the hotel! The wooden cottage we lived in was located in the forest and was very comfortable! The hotel and the other side of Jetwing Yala share a buffet and beach bar. The staff is very friendly! No matter what our needs are, the staff comes to serve us immediately. The food at Jungle Hotel is delicious! This is definitely a place worth coming back to!

    Our stay was fabulous! The service and hospitality is outstanding. The tents are luxurious, the beds and pillows are super comfy. All the extras, they think of everything. We took a morning and evening Safari, our host Dahnula, studied zoology, probably the best safari guide we could have wished for. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend. We are already planning our next visit.
