Search Lodges in Palatupana

"Overview: We are a family of four from India, with two kids (6 years old and 7 months old). Our trip took place in November 2024, and the main reason for staying at this resort was our safari in Yala National Park. We traveled from Nuwara Eliya (Nanu Oya) to Ella by train, which took about 3.5 hours. Then, we drove for about 2.5 hours to reach DoubleTree by Hilton. Apart from ultra-luxury resorts like Wild Coast Tented Lodges and Uga Chena Huts, DoubleTree by Hilton offered a comfortable and luxurious stay. Another Hilton property is located inside Yala National Park but is more expensive. Location: Rating: 10/10 The resort is spacious and quiet, offering a peaceful environment. The surrounding lake is serene, perfect for meditation or relaxation on one of the patios. The swimming pool is large, clean, and includes a bar, though they don’t provide tubes, which would have been ideal for kids. However, there is a separate pool for children. The area is not a city, so it’s recommended to include meals with your stay. The resort also features a club-like area offering hookah, drinks, a big screen, pool, and a karaoke room. This property is very kid-friendly. Being located near the Yala forest, it’s natural to encounter insects, but the housekeeping staff are friendly and quick to help if any are found in the room.

"We enjoyed our stay at Cinnamon Wild Yala. We did the stargazing with Kasun. We saw the moon and Saturn and enjoyed the view and the discussion with Kasun. Glad we did this activity! We also went on a nature walk with Gayan Gamage on the 16th of october 2024, and it was absolutely amazing. He was super friendly and knew a lot about the nature and the tracking of the animals. It was very interesting, and we saw a lot of the local animals. We hightly recommend this to anyone who likes the nature and animals. Gayan was friendly and easy to talk to and we had a great time! He was also very good at involving the children and our daughter loved him and wanted a picture taken with him after the tour :)"
