Lodges in Hambantota District

"We stayed at Jetwing Yala for three nights and had an amazing experience overall. The hotel itself is beautiful, with a stunning pool that’s perfect for cooling off in the heat. Even though Yala National Park was closed for the first couple of days, it was still lovely to relax around the hotel and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The location is incredible, right on the beach. You can even join an early morning walk with the lifeguard, which was such a nice touch. The staff throughout the hotel were genuinely lovely and always happy to help. One of the absolute highlights was the wildlife. A bull elephant visited the hotel twice during our stay once at night and once in the morning which was honestly the best experience ever. The naturalists were always present, making sure everyone was safe, answering questions, and sharing so much knowledge. We did a half-day guided safari organised by the hotel and would definitely recommend going with a guide. Even though we didn’t see a leopard, the naturalists and jeep drivers were so dedicated and made the experience amazing. We saw baby elephants, crocodiles, deer, and even a sloth bear. They even set off early so we were at the front of the queue entering the park. The food experience was mixed. For the first couple of nights breakfast and dinner were à la carte, and the dishes were exceptional. Later it changed to a buffet, which personally I don’t enjoy as much, as it feels a bit more rushed and less relaxed. Not sure why the "

"The staff were amazing, esp the waiters at breakfast and dinner service. Attention to detail, service was impressive "

"Fabulous place "

"We had an outstanding stay at this hotel. The quiet, peaceful location made it the perfect place to unwind, with the beautifully scenic pool and direct beach access creating an ideal setting for relaxation. The food was consistently good throughout our stay, with plenty of fresh, well-prepared options. What truly set the hotel apart, though, was the staff—every member of the team was warm, helpful, and went out of their way to make our stay memorable. A fantastic place to relax and enjoy a more personal, welcoming experience."
