We had the most amazing stay - the staff were fantastic, food delicious, safaris were great and the villas were beautiful - will definitely return again and would highly recommend. Tea on the rocks was lovely and the walk around the camp with an experienced conservationist was truly wonderful and well worth doing :) Thank you so much Yakaduruyala :)

We were a family with two granddaughters 3 & 5 and the staff went over and above to make the children and us feel welcome and pampered!! The manager Madhawa was kind, helpful, efficient and very competent!! Pradeep and the other young men took us on tours and wanted to feel at home and showed us the beautiful surroundings of the hotel! We went on an all inclusive plan and loved it!

Everything ! The place is amazing. It is blended in the nature, the Savannah on one side and Indian Ocean on another. You can feel connected to the nature around you in a really respectful way. As everyone will tell you there : “animals were here first. we are the guests on their land”. Of course, the rooms are beautiful. You will enjoy spending time discovering every little detail of it. What we enjoyed the most was the food and the service The food was amazingly good and it was the best we had in our all trip in Sri Lanka. The Chef has much creativity and has nothing to envy to Michelin restaurants. Also every team member was very kind and thoughtful. The manager offered us a beach dinner on our first evening to celebrate our engagement and we had a surprise cake at the end to celebrate. But all the team members are very kind, efficient, flexible, and they genuinely caring about people. And at the end, that is the thing that matters. Finally but nonetheless, the safari experience was really amazing thanks to our ranger Darshana. It is a life changing experience to enter in this environment where you don’t belong. But what we will also remember is the passion of Darshana for the animals. He is so respectful of the nature around him and so knowledgeable. He is the one who made our experience unforgettable. Thank you to all the staff of Wild tented coast lodge. We hope to visit you again !

    The rooms were good size and clean. Swimming pool was a little dirty but the staff tried their best to keep it clean. Reception staff ( two young ladies) were very welcoming and told us everything about the facilities.

    Lovely hotel with a good room and nice swimming pool. Staff were really friendly and helpful when I cut my leg and got plasters for her. The restaurant manager, Samphah, ensured that we had a fabulous Sri Lankan curry for dinner. The location was convenient to access Yala NP. We went on an early Safari in Yala NP and they supplied a really nice packed breakfast. Paid by credit card with no charges.

    We liked our rooms a lot, we had enough space, enough tables/closets and a nice bathroom. We also liked how clean the swimming pool was (not an easy task). And how helpful the staff was if you needed anything.

    Rooms are very comfortable, spacious, light and furnished with an eye for detail (fi shower head designed as a small waterfall). We loved all these small details, which you also find at the swimming pool! Our driver dropped us at the intersection with the main road, where the accomodation picked us up for the last 2km (5minutes). No problem at all. Very good kitchen. Very attentive staff. Swimming pool was a plus because of the hot wheather. Monkeys on the roof were a plus as well :-). Nice place, don't hesitate!
