Safari Tentalow in Tissamaharama

"One of the best hotels weve ever stayed in. Rooms were beautifully decorated and felt very private. Beach bonfire cocktails were amazing. The food, and menu choice as a vegetarian was exceptional. Spa and massage very good. Your stay includes safari, which also included skipping all the queues (which was a brilliant surprise). The staff were so friendly and went out of their way to make our 1 night stay unique "

"A hidden gem! A beautiful, clean and comfortable cottage right in the middle of the forest, in the heart of nature. Lovely staff and service. They even arranged a last minute safari for me, which was worth it. The restaurant serves organic and fresh meals (veg only) and the view of the lake is spectacular! The host even took us for a walk around the areas and we saw some lovely birds. This place is worth every penny. Highly recommended. "

"Absolutely loved this hotel, wish we had more time here. Outstanding service, pleasant staff and fantastic surroundings. Our room overlooked the ocean and it was lovely to watch the monkeys bounding on the balcony and the properties. The bathroom had an open air concept and you could look at the stars while you shower. The hotel is built sympathetically to the surroundings. Good choices for breakfast and dinner buffets. Great base for Yala safari. Even with early starts you could request a packed breakfast. Pool area is lovely and we enjoyed drinks at the swim up bar. Cannot recommend this hotel enough."

"Everything was impeccable, staff, cleanliness, food!"

"Whilst there were some issues with our booking in relation to the details within the advert for the hotel which we have now resolved with Expedia, we still want to leave a positive review. The staff were absolutely amazing and were so accommodating, and in particular Arutha (food and beverage) delivered the best customer service we have experienced in a long time. We really felt like he could not do enough and was a pleasure to be around each day. It was my friends 50th and they pulled out all the stops for the evening even though it was New Year’s Eve. They made an amazing cake and decorated the room which was really lovely and I’m grateful to the manager for his/his teams efforts. The beachside bar and pool is in a beautiful location and the beach is amazing. It’s about 15 minutes in the shuttle to get there but is worth a visit. The chef made some really tasty food and as a vegan I appreciated the extra effort he went to. Whilst the fixed menu wasn’t really what we had hoped for, I have to say most of the dishes were lovely. The chef took the time to come and speak to us which again was appreciated. Whilst the Ayurveda treatments were not what we wanted, the manager assisted us as much as he could, and for that we were grateful and believe the hotel deserves a positive review for the time, effort and service the staff gave us."

"Wonderful hotel in a great location close to lake and ocean. We stayed in a jungle chalet which was spacious and well equipped. Staff constantly patrolling the area so very safe. We booked full board and all the meals were delicious and great variety. Danushka served us at dinner and breakfast and was charming and very attentive. "

"Room was clean and staff service was impeccable."
