Top Hotels Near Palatupana Beach in Thissamaharama from NZ$26

"Can't speak highly enough. The staff was helpful beyond belief. The safari driver organised had 14 years experience and we saw everything we hoped for. Staff found a large printed photograph on a board for me to purchase. It was taken by the GM at Yala in a similar position to what we spotted our leopard. Money goes to a conservation fund."

"If you are looking for a hotel nearby the national park, look no further as this place is perfect You will be sunbathing watching crocodiles in the lake(it’s safe, don’t worry!!) admiring the sunset with the buffaloes and keep hoping an elephant will pop in. The rooms are spectacular,spacious and very very clean. The buffet (both breakfast and dinner) is yummy and with a variety I haven’t seen before. But the highlight of this hotel is the staff. We had the best people looking after us and this was the best thing!"

"Amazing. Staff were brilliant and cooked us one of best meals ever. Pool was perfect."

"Outstanding hotel! Loved everything about it. We were visiting for 1 night to do the safari (which was also fab) but wished we stayed another night just to chillax!! Was nicely surprised that their dining prices were no more expensive (in fact cheaper in some cases) than other equivalent properties in Sri Lanka given the remoteness & no other options! Food & staff were great. Lovely pool. Highly recommend."

"Just wonderful. Heavenly."

"This is an amazing hotel, everything is very special. Rooms are clean and spacious and with lovely views and lots of natural light. The facilities such as the pool and the spa are fantastic. The restaurant really yummy and lovely atmosphere. The staff members are extraordinary. Our son doesn’t want to go anywhere else 😂. He keeps saying, nothing is like the HiltonYala ❤️"

"Absolutely THE best experience! What a gem of a place. The rooms are spacious "
