Отель Animal View Point Yala, Тиссамахарама, Шри-Ланка

We had a pleasant stay at the tree house. It is quite new and even if there are frogs coming up the toilet (expected in the forest area) it is very clean. Shashika is a very passionate owner who cares about his guests needs. When we had an issue he was very quick to respond and help. He also booked us a private safari tour at a good price. The food (home made from his mom!) was one of the best we had in Srilanka. We also enjoyed the delightful conversations with him.

It’s a true gem in the middle of the jungle. If you like nature and raw environment, this is for you. Plus, the owner and his family are really good people and they will help you with planning and day-to-day things. You can have a walk around the damp water and enjoy the view on animals and nature. I hope to go back one day and I can only recommend this over again!

The name of this property is only partially accurate because it is much more than just a viewpoint for animals in Yala. Here you have a viewpoint into the heart and soul of Sri Lankan culture. Shasika and his family were so sincere and welcoming to us and in a such a loving way that we were moved like we never have before in our travels anywhere. We are now part of a family in Sri Lanka. Oh, and did I mention the awesome tree house, the incredible view and the delicious food? Priceless!

Our stay at the tree house in Animal View Point is one of the biggest memories that we brought with us from Sri Lanka. The views are unbelievable beautiful. Sunrise and sunsets were something from another world, there is so much life awakening everywhere. I can’t think in a better place (both the tree house and surroundings) to stay if you like birding. Also, there is even a shower in the tree house! Bed was perfect, the room was clean and fresh at night (we barely used the provided fan) and it had every amenity we needed. Staff was friendly, helpful and fantastic people. Both breakfast and dinner were absolutely delicious home-made Sri Lankan food, we did enjoy every bite of it. Also, every single spot of the hotel was carefully planned and thought, everything sustainable and coming from local business. I’d recommend this place to absolutely anyone that is looking for an authentic and real experience in Yala. We will definitely come back if we have the opportunity to.

Great host & staff, the tree house is very cool, and you’re surrounded by nature and animals
