    We stayed two nights in the Riverside Cabana and had a wonderful experience. The accommodation is really nice — we stayed in a cozy treehouse-style cabana facing the river, surrounded by nature. It was peaceful and refreshing, yet still...

    So as you can see, it is a more adventurous stay than average - but in proportion everything is really clean, a lot more than other more ‘luxurious’ stays we had. There is noice in the evening but if with ear plugs I slept really good. The owner...

    Dimuthu and his family have a very beautiful home along the river. If you are thinking of doing a safari in Yala national park this is the start, you can easily spot monkeys, all kind of birds and even crocodile alongside the river. They gave me...
