Really great safari experience, the host made everything to find the elephants and other animals, but also explained us a lot about their behaviour, lifestyle and many other things. The room was clean and had an AC unit.

An exceptional family stay, in December 2024, this was a newly built facility. The family run hotel had a homely atmosphere, everyone was super friendly and polite. The owner has put a lot of thought into the layout and details of the whole hotel. The room are expansive, very comfortable and immaculately clean. The private balconies offer great views over the picturesque rice fields and beyond to the lake. The gardens are teaming with birds. The pool is well maintained, and very welcome after a long journey. The food was super fresh and very tasty, home cooked in a very clean open air kitchen. The owner arranged our Yala safari. We had a very enjoyable stay, in hide sight we should have stayed longer.

I loved everything about this place. I would like to start by commending Gayan, the host! He is probably the best and nicest host I've had in Sri Lanka. He sent me to the town FOC to get some of the best Sri Lankan food I've eaten, given me a free nature tour around the lake where we can see fruit bats and owls, arranged the safari at the most affordable rate I could find, had some of the most interesting conversations about plants, animals, Sri Lankan culture, etc. Everything in this place felt like a family home. We had tea at 4AM before the safari and was also welcomed back with a king coconut! The room was also amazingly clean, spacious, well decorated and came with an extra cooler fan because Tissa can get quite hot. I definitely recommend this place and would love to come back again!

We visited Black Panther Yala to have a place to stay while visiting Yala national park, but what we got was so much more. The host Nalin is an increadiable host. Its important for him that you have the best experience possibel and you feel that when staying at black panther yala. Nalin showed us what we could do in Thissamahara and we got to use bikes to go on a tour to see this beutiful area. You should not miss out on taking some time to take a look. Nalin also arranged our visit to Yala national park. The guide and option he recommended for us was perfekt. The facilities are very clean and I was very comfortabel during my whole stay. Also, the food was delicious! Homemade sri lankan food and as good as it comes. We also got to know about the foods and its ingredians which was very appreciated You wont find a more priceworthy option when visiting the nationalpark or Thissamahara. I recomend it wholeheartily.

Great place in Lake Yala, far from city center. It feels like you are staying in the middle of the savanna. There are few huts in the complex so it's really quiet, low light pollution so stargazing at night is an option. There is a gate you can use to access Yala lake to see buffalos and walks at sunset, really cool. There were some friendly guardian dogs around and the staff was very nice, always available 24x7.

We stayed here for three nights and it was wonderfull! A lovely host, a very nice room and fantastic surroundings. Randy took us three times on a tour (for free) where he explained us a lot about the region, the plants and the animals. It is a good place for bird watching! It is a quiet place, but still a good spot for doing a safari at Yala. At the evening he and his wife cook local dishes with own products from the garden. An absolut recommendation, especially when you want to see more than Yala NP.
