Located in Tissamaharama, 3 km from Tissa Wewa, Double Lake View Tissa & Safari provides accommodation with a garden, free private parking, a shared lounge and a terrace. Providing a restaurant, the property is located within 25 km of Bundala Bird Sanctuary. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, room service and free WiFi. Thank you to the family which provided us this unforgettable stay here in Tissa. They are so friendly and helpful. Furthermore, very clean room and nice view over the lake especially for sunrise. The room was very big and we felt very comfortable. The safari the owner provided was amazing, we saw many animals. We did a sunset tour. To mention: I twisted my ankle some days ago when we were hiking in Ella and the owner of Double Lake View Tissa went with us to a hospital and drove us to pharmacy. This was so kind. Also the food was very nice. Overall, this stay was one of our best we had in Sri Lanka, we would definitely come back again.

Situated within 12 km of Tissa Wewa and 18 km of Situlpawwa in Yala, Tribe Yala - Luxury Camping offers accommodation with seating area. This 4-star luxury tent offers a 24-hour front desk and free shuttle service. The luxury tent features rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. The whole experience was great: really well organized and curated in details! The entire Tribe Yala staff works hard to provide a beautiful stay in nature with kindness and attention to all your needs. Camp is beautiful, having dinner by the fire under the sky has no price and the Safari experience is so good as well! Last but not least: we were three people with special need in terms of food - one of us was gluten and dairy free, another vegetarian - and they cooked yummy alternatives for each one of us. Definitely recommended for a beautiful stay :)

Located within less than 1 km of Tissa Wewa and 25 km of Bundala Bird Sanctuary in Tissamaharama, Tissa Rainbow Guest & Yala provides accommodation with seating area. It is set 35 km from Situlpawwa and offers a 24-hour front desk. There is a sun terrace and guests can make use of free WiFi and free private parking. I can't say enough great things about this homestay! They arranged our transfer from Ella and arranged a morning and afternoon safari for us. We were greeted with a delicious cold coconut water, in the coconut. We chose the breakfast and dinner option which makes so much sense because the town is a bit of a walk and after a safari all day (4:30 am to 6:30 pm) it is great to have dinner at the homestay. Both dinners we had were excellent, I think the best food we've had in Sri Lanka! They also pack a breakfast to go on your safari day because of leaving so early. When you wake up they have coffee and bananas for you before leaving. Our room was a great size, ac and hot water worked well. The owners are very kind, friendly and even drove us to the bus stop, stayed with us and made sure we got on the right bus. I highly recommend Tissa Rainbow for your stay while exploring Yala National Park, you won't regret it!
