    This is a great location to stay if you want to visit the national parks and My Village will organise safaris to the four parks in the area either a half or full day. The local town is not a tourist town but it's great to wander around looking in the local shops.

    Was in Tissamaharama for Yala Safari, had booked the early morning Safari. Disappointed with the Safari as there were very few animals except.for.peacocks and spotted dear. Later into the ride our jeep driver and guide revealed we had entered through block 5 of the Safari and most the animals(Leopard, Bears) mostly are sighted in block 1 and 2. Block 1 and 2 were closed that day, maybe just our luck. So I guess check, with the Safari organizer before booking your safari as it quite expensive. Basically disappointed ☹️

    Very good base for safari to Yala or Bundala parks. I' went to Bundala as I've never been to park with big wetlands and I think it was a great choice. We've seen numerous types of birds, lizards, monkeys, jackals, mangooses, bufallos, crocodiles and also few elephants😊 I didn't stay in center of Tissa but still was able to find nice restaurants, like Smoky Kitchen (recommended).

    Milshani is a host, who takes care for her guests. She organized all safaris for me in advance and each was worth the money. If it was leopards in Yala, elephants in Udawalawe or birds and crocodiles in Bundala, nature lovers will enjoy. The Sri Lankan food was exceptional, Milshani and her mother even gave me cooking lesson. The location of the homestay is away from the noise in Tissamaharama and I loved overlooking the rice fields from the veranda. Super homestay, super hosts. Would come again.

    We loved our 2 night stay here whilst doing a Yala safari trip, our favourite in Sri Lanka so far! Very good value for money as it felt like we were staying in a luxury hotel. Breakfast was exceptional, and a good packed breakfast which they very kindly made at 5am for us! Dinner was great, big portions and fairly priced - go for the rice and curry (amazing!). Would 100% recommend anyone to stay here! Pool are was lovely and so relaxing.

    Incredible rooms, grounds, breakfast and staff. Everything here was top notch from arrival to departure. What an incredible hotel! We were able to book a private safari (recommended) through the hotel for a lower price than other locations online. Chuti was a great guide and saw/pointed out animals that we would’ve missed. The pool is a dream at the hotel, as are all the facilities. It’s clean, comfortable and luxurious.
