The concept of a Safari Village brings two of the most estimable qualities of a dream vacation together, i.e. Adventure and Relaxation. These two key ingredients are provided for by the hotel’s close proximity to the jungle and the sea.

The Yala Village is located at Kirinda and borders the Yala Wildlife Sanctuary and the Indian Ocean. The Village comprises a number of chalets scattered across 10 acres of mixed evergreen forest and typical dry zone vegetation. A pool bar, swimming pool, restaurant with a bird’s eye view and an observation deck are also made available for the guests. That’s not all; visitors are also advised to keep their eyes & ears wide open because wildlife is abundant and surprises are many. Since we respect the laws of nature, the Asian elephant, the illusive leopard, spotted deer, wild boar and numerous varieties of birds are frequent visitors at the village.  

Each luxurious air-conditioned chalet features an animal design element in its interior décor thus creating a unique atmosphere. Deer, monkey and peacock themed chalets are painted in vibrant colours to please the eye. Suite Julian, which is the epitome of luxury, is available for the discerning wildlife enthusiast.
