Guest UserLankavatara offers a peaceful, secluded escape. The beach is beautiful and, for most of our stay, we had it almost entirely to ourselves. Do be aware that the sea is very rough, so it’s generally not suitable for swimming.
The rooms have a rustic charm with basic amenities. While comfortable enough, I personally wouldn’t rate the property as a 4-star hotel. The Wi-Fi was also quite weak, which may be worth considering if you need a reliable internet connection.
The staff were always willing to help when asked, although the service sometimes felt a little disingenuous and not always delivered with genuine warmth. Food service could also be quite slow at times, so it’s best to allow plenty of time for meals.
One of the highlights of our stay was the surrounding area. A special mention goes to Upoint Restaurant, which serves exceptional home-cooked Sri Lankan seafood. The hosts there were incredibly welcoming and made for a memorable dining experience.
Overall, we had a lovely stay. If you’re looking for a quiet, unspoilt beach, simple accommodation, and don’t mind a more relaxed pace of service, Lankavatara is a pleasant place to unwind.

Guest UserWhat a top stay we had! From the beginning to the end everything was perfectly arranged.
They did everything they could for you, they were always educated and if they weren't working with us, they were working to clean up the stay.
The food was really nice everything was fresh made and tasted super good! Also with our morning safari they provided a top breakfast
The location is top in 30 minutes you are at Yala National Park, you can go to the village with a tuktuk but we thought it was just nice to be outside the safari at the hotel. The swimming pool was enjoyed and relaxed.
It is that we can't give stars anymore because they really deserve this!

The Hilton Yala Resort is located on the southern edge of Yala National Park in Sri Lanka, at the entrance to a protected area... It's said that the park experience is a substitute for an African safari, and this protected area is home to wild animals such as leopards, elephants, deer, and peacocks, especially the leopard colony (just kidding, you practically never see one [sweat]). This resort has only 42 rooms, blending seamlessly into nature. Each room has a private balcony and a Jacuzzi or private pool. A spa is standard at resorts, and there are suites and more private villas, but the prices are just as hefty [laughs]...

We booked this at the last minute due to a change of plans and so just went by the previous reviews but we are so glad we did! It’s a small hotel but with lovely large rooms with private pools. We loved the sunset walk to the beautiful wild beach and our trip to Yala. We didn’t have any problems with wildlife in the shower and loved the feeling of being in such a natural environment. The real selling point of the hotel however is their staff and every one of them went out of their way to help us have a great stay.
Thanks again!

Hidden away in the jungle, the hotel is beautiful and peaceful. We stayed in the king suite with our own pool and spa and it was the perfect spot to wind down after an active week of climbing, walking and safaris.
We happened to be the only guests on our night stay and everyone made it a lovely experience with taking us for a walk around the lake to see the local wildlife and cooking a bbq right outside our room.
Will definitely stay here again should I find myself back in Sri Lanka.

Сам отель неплохой, именно в этом районе подобных мало. Большой номер, вид отличный, завтрак стандартный, персонал старается. Сам пляж именно перед отелем не очень, но если пройтись левее, там уже поинтереснее. Справа грязноватая рыбацкая деревня. Рядом есть различные кафе, можно что-нибудь выбрать.

This hotel is really amazing. I enjoyed every single service they provide. The room is huge and clean. They have beautiful swimming pool. The price really affordable and it’s include either lunch or dinner.
The staffs are very friendly and helpful. SriLankan people just lovely.
The thing they could improve is the WIFI 😭 it’s super super slow.

A very convenient hotel 30 mins from Yala national park for Safari (which the were kind enough to arrange for us). Nice pool with views over the lagoon and a great spot to sit and watch the sunset, birds flying home for bed/bats on their way out for the night! Staff are great, food was good.
