The AC wasn’t working (although the fan was)

Large comfy beds, clean and in a great location. Staff very nice and helped us get out tuktuk on the road again when it wouldn’t start - thank you!

Nothing. Everything was to our needs.A quiet place

A pretty good place to stay in Tissa. Location particularly good. Exit the property and turn right for a 15 minute walk into town. Turn left for a 10 minute walk into the rice fields. Sunrise and sunsets to be seen from there. The room was very good. Aircon was quiet and there were no outside disturbances.Bed and pillows comfortable enough. Bathroom basic but ok. Host Nihal was friendy and helpful and organized transport for us on a number of occasions including a safari. He is also a very good cook and we loved his Jack fruit curry.

Nothing all was good

The place was very clean beds were comfortable. Nihal the host was really lovely he cooked us a delicious Sri Lankan dinner and the breakfast was good too. I would recommend this place if you are looking to book Yalla Safari this can be done through Nature Resort.

The WiFi range was very good downstairs, but sometimes less good in the rooms upstairs.

We enjoyed our stay at Nature Resort, Yala Safari village. Our room was very clean, the beds are soft and the ventilation is great. The owner is very friendly, he is very hospitable. He helps you with everything and he offers coffee or tea in the morning! This man is really a sweetheart! The safari in the National Park can be arranged through the owner, you will be picked up at the resort.

Lizards and mosquitoes

Very close to city

Spotlessly clean, in a great location walkable to main things in town and amazing value for money. Colourful and tidy. Super lovely guy running the place. I did a safari tour through the hotel, with Prasana - he was great

The wifi is very weak and there are a lot of mosquitos at the patio

This is one of the best places we stayed in Sri Lanka: Very helpful owner, very comfortable room: big beds, good mosquito nets, clean bathroom, clean bedsheets, enough pillows, big windows, dark & quiet at night. Every morning we received fresh fruits (from the garden) and coffee. Shops, busstation, restaurants, ... all in walking distance. We btw like it so much that we extend two more nights.

At night there could be a lot of insects that will get attracted to the lights so make sure you keep your doors closed.

The rooms were very spacious. The bathrooms were well maintained. The person who was attending to us was really helpful. The place is a 10min walk from a few restaurants and convenience stores which was great. We also got towels for everyone in the room

Good value hotel for a quick pit stop to visit Yala National park, big breakfast and lovely view from 1st floor rooms over looking the paddy fields.

The host asked me 2 days before my arrival if I wanted to book the safari with them for $60. I confirmed this so I didnt arrange anything on my own. When I checked in the hotel (7pm, which is kind of late for Sri Lanka), they informed me that in the end there was no safari booked as it was low season and they could not find any jeeps available for sharing. They told me I may need to go privately which was significantly more expensive. I declined this and complaint, however said I would not book something private with them. Without them knowing, I contacted someone else online that offered me the whole safari shared for $100, so there were clearly spots available. An hour later, the hotel did contact me to let me know the safari had now been arranged as previously agreed - I ended up going with them as it was cheaper. The safari was good, and the room was excellent, but the way they handled my safari reservation was poor (and dodgy)

The room was big, both beds had mosquito nets and were comfortable. The room was hot but the ventilator kept the room at good temperature. The toilet was also good. The area was calm and quiet. Really good price-quality

The owner was extremely kind to us. Made sure we were ok and even delivered some fruits to our room he'd grown himself! The safari was amazing too, picked straight up from accommodation and saw masses of animals ☺️

The water pressure in the shower with the heater was so low that we had to use the "old" shower with cold water only, but in the heat outside that was not really a problem. The internet connection could also benefit from increased speed...

The stuff was really friendly and helpful and the room was very nice although a bit smaller. The lobby and other facilities were also very comfy and clean. We really enjoyed our short stay and can recommend it to others.

I highly recommend staying at Nature Resort. It is conveniently located (and the views are gorgeous), the rooms are nice, spacious and very clean (so is the bathroom). The owner is such a warm, friendly, helpful person - he definitely is the reason why I think Nature Resort is exceptional. He helped us arrange a safari (highly recommended to do it via the owner!), prepared some snacks and coffee for us in the morning and juice when we came back. He was always there, smiling and ready to help. One of my best stays in Sri Lanka!

Great friendly hotel. The manager is fantastic and will go out of his way to help you. The rooms are spotlessly clean (as is the hotel) and it is located in a quiet location 5 minutes walk from town. Highly recommend and we would definitely stay here again. Additionally the safari we organised through the hotel with Pasanna was fantastic - the early morning start was totally worth it and we were first through the gate when the park opened. Pasanna was highly knowledgeable with fantastic 4wd skills and enabled us to see a great selection of animals (we even saw 2 leopards which I hear is rare, 3 different families of elephants all with babies, as well most of the other animals that are in the park). We chose a full day safari (every jeep spends 12-2 having lunch and resting…bring a book) - which enabled us to be a bit more relaxed and made the whole day super enjoyable! Highly recommend this safari!

Everything was perfect! The host was super kind and nice with us. He cooked a wonderful meal for us, everything was perfect 🤩 We also booked a safari with the hotel and it was a really good safari, well organized and at a really good price. Thank you for everything ❤️

I can’t fully recommend the safari with this hotel though. The driver/guide was super nice and punctual, stopped to show us various animals on the way. But it was uncomfortable to ride his jeep in the front seat in the rain. The roof was leaking and all cold water poured on my feet. The driver tried to fix the problem, but to no avail. I sat the entire safari with wet and cold feet. I had a raincoat, but it didn’t help as the water poured right on my feet. Unfortunately, there were no other seats available in other rows as the car had 4 other stranger people sitting in middle and back rows who also booked the safari (the car is a 6-seater Bolero, 3 rows of seats). So I think the safari with this hotel is good on a sunny day, but if it’s raining - be ready to seat with wet and cold feet for the entire safari.

Nice host, quiet location, clean room, air con, hot water (though the pressure is quite low). The host made a delicious vegetarian dinner for 900 lkr.

A very beautiful small house, also very close to the city area.

The host was very attentive and made sure we were happy throughout our stay. He also helped us arrange a safari to Yala which we both really enjoyed and gave us some good advice about the local buses. The setting was lovely from the garden to the rice fields opposite. We were both very happy with the room and the bathroom was spacious. Another positive was the short walk to the local restaurants.

The host was so nice! He washed our clothes & was really sweet!! The rooms where clean and fine :)

The breakfast was small and not delicious (several fruits, local bread, water). It was rainy time and were roof leaks above the bed. The double bed was small.

The hotel is near the Tissa center, cafe, local reservoir and temple. Host could organize safari. There is parking place and garden.
