Kande Gedara Resort (කන්දෙ ගෙදර)

Monaragala

Guests at the guest house can enjoy an Asian breakfast, and breakfast in the room is also available. For those times when you'd rather not dine out, you can choose to cook in your kitchen.

Guests at Kande Gedara Resort (කන්දෙ ගෙදර) will be able to enjoy activities in and around Monaragala, like walking tours. With an outdoor fireplace and a picnic area, this guest house offers ample opportunities to unwind. I had a big comfortable bed, in a nice clean room with a bathroom. I loved the peace and quiet as the place is surrounded by trees so you literally sleep in the middle of the forest. The host Michael is sweet beyond words. The moment I opened my door a mug of fresh hot coffee with some yummy pastries were waiting for me served on the sunny porch. I will be returning that’s for sure. Thank you Michael🙏

Lake Front Yala Safari

Kataragama

Some units in the guest house have private entrance and are fitted with desk and outdoor furniture. Units are complete with a private bathroom equipped with a bidet, while certain units at the guest house also provide guests with a seating area. At the guest house, all units include bed linen and towels. The hosts were very welcoming when I arrived in the night- there was a really nice juice on arrival and the daughter Nithya was helpful in recommending places to visit in Kataragama and in organising a safari in Yala. Meals were great (including take away breakfast during safari), everything was clean and there was AC in the bedroom. There’s also a bicycle to use to get around in. Would highly recommend a night here if you plan to explore Yala national park.

Really friendly staff, they helped us with everything, even organising our safari in a better price that the one you can book directly in Yala National Park. Food was okeyish (but we just took fried rice). It’s super close to yala, the room is really nice and clean.

The hotel is surrounded by a Garden, which keeps it cool. I loved this town, surrounded by lots of pretty rural roads to wander. The staff were really kind and the location was perfect, a short walk from the bus station.
