We really enjoyed our 2 night stay, rooms were spacious and nicely appointed. We enjoyed the pool and the safaris organized by the lodge, who supplies rangers in addition to drivers in the safari vehicles. We opted to add an optional safari to increase our chances of seeing the elephants and leopards. Excellent staff, Sasha was very helpful, Venura in the restaurant was great and so was our Ranger Amida.

12/10!!!
This hotel is the best I have ever stayed in…a real gem!! It accepts that we are guests in the animals land, yet somehow finds extremely tasteful luxury without disturbing nature. Rohan our host greeted us with a smile and was always on hand with anything we needed. Vihanga in the restaurant was great fun, had great recommendations and always remembered our regular orders. Darshana our ranger feels like a true friend. He is a library of knowledge, has passion for the animals as though each sighting is his first and had some great stories. He teamed with Yasanka our driver who was incredibly talented at both driving and animal spotting. Overall the service from arrival to departure was second to none! I always say how you leave a hotel says everything about it, and we left with heavy hearts, but also a free gift and discount voucher for a return, which we will 100% be using! Thank you all at Wild Coast Lodges for your exceptional service and dedication. DO NOT STAY IN ANY OTHER HOTEL IN YALA!

Perfection! Amazing location, amazing staff, amazing room, amazing food. Truly could not have been better. Everyone is so kind. Aishira, Sithija and Dilukshi in the dining room were extraordinary. We did two safaris with Sudheera and Krishna and they were exceptional. Truly top class. Thank you for the best stay.

Everythiing, from start to finish, were so well thought through and executed on at this hotel. The facility was gorgeous and so well designed. - from the tent lodging with fully working air-conditioning, running water, and luxury amenities to the main lodge with the structure being built by local fishermen who were taught (by the hotel) how to build structures like the one at the hotel during their off-season to continue to have an income. The service was also incredible - every single person knows who you are and goes out of their way to make your stay special. They even set up a table under the stars for just me (I was traveling solo). I look forward to staying here again in my future.

The welcome was brilliant. The room fantastic and the safaris amazing. The food was faultless. There was a lack of communication with a pre booked dinner. However the manager sorted the mishap straightaway. Amazing stay.

The most unforgettable stay!!! Thank you
Absolutely amazing stay here!! I have stayed at arguably some of the finest hotels in Asia and this was definitely up there with the best of not the best. From the moment you arrive you instantly notice just how amazing this hotel is. In the middle of Yala National Park you are bound to see wildlife st your doorstep. The Guest relations manager was extremely helpful, the head Chef Ranil cooked up some of the finest meals we have ever had. Thank you.

Without a doubt the best hotel we have ever stayed
Where do we start? This might without be on of the best hotel we have ever stayed at, and we have stayed at many luxury hotels. The rooms, the food, the staff, the bar, the safari guides - everything was really top notch in every detail. I will really recommend this hotel to anyone I know who will ever visit Sri Lanka. This lodge experience made our trip the absolute best, and we will certainly be back in the future! /Jonas with family (Sweden)
