    This is a great location to stay if you want to visit the national parks and My Village will organise safaris to the four parks in the area either a half or full day. The local town is not a tourist town but it's great to wander around looking in the local shops.

    Was in Tissamaharama for Yala Safari, had booked the early morning Safari. Disappointed with the Safari as there were very few animals except.for.peacocks and spotted dear. Later into the ride our jeep driver and guide revealed we had entered through block 5 of the Safari and most the animals(Leopard, Bears) mostly are sighted in block 1 and 2. Block 1 and 2 were closed that day, maybe just our luck. So I guess check, with the Safari organizer before booking your safari as it quite expensive. Basically disappointed ☹️

    Very good base for safari to Yala or Bundala parks. I' went to Bundala as I've never been to park with big wetlands and I think it was a great choice. We've seen numerous types of birds, lizards, monkeys, jackals, mangooses, bufallos, crocodiles and also few elephants😊 I didn't stay in center of Tissa but still was able to find nice restaurants, like Smoky Kitchen (recommended).

    Hotel Nilketha is a great option before or after safari in the Yala National Park. The pool and jacuzzi set in the palm trees is beautiful! Our room was very spacious, with firm but comfortable beds, good AC, as well as a good shower with products provided. Wifi was also good. The hotel owner was extremely welcoming and let us try Sri Lankan Arrack, which was fun! As we were there over Sinhalese New Year, we also enjoyed complementary tea and biscuits. We dined at the hotel too and the local cuisine was delicious.

    We spent 2 months travelling Sri Lanka and this was probably the best hotel we stayed in!! The room was extremely spacious, well furnished and cleaned every morning. The decor was beautiful and the food at the restaurant was also good. The pool was very calming. We were also able to arrange a safari which picked us up outside of the hotel. The hosts prepared a picnic breakfast for us to take which was so helpful. They went above and beyond, it was great value!

He always seemed to know where animals would show up. We saw so much wildlife! His driving made us feel so safe and his knowledge about the parks flora and fauna was utterly inspiring. Thank you sooo much driver for such an amazing experience. We can only highly recommend this young man!

    Kethaka Aga might have been the most beautiful hotel we have stayed in during our travels in Sri Lanka. Not only was the room very comfortable, the rest of the house and garden (including garden/pool area) offered some nice places to relax as well. The staff was really nice and catered to all our needs, from doing our laundry till preparing a breakfast package at 4:30 AM to bring to our safari. Highly recommended!

    We embarked on a safari adventure with them, encountering majestic bears, elusive leopards, and graceful elephants. The hotel, nestled near a serene lake, welcomed us with the enchanting melodies of evening birdsong. Whether traveling solo or in a group, it's the perfect destination. Additionally, the expansive garden adds to the charm. We look forward to returning to Sri Lanka and reuniting with them.

The bathroom were clean but the water pressure was not the best, but got the job done. The hotel even set up a jeep for our safari tour all we had to do was be in the lobby. The staff spoke very good English and was very friendly.

    The host is the nicest family we’ve met in Sri Lanka. They took the time to show us around the neighborhood and even rented a car for a longer tour of the village. I would have stayed longer if I’d know just how nice it would be. Being a newer hotel all the bath mats, towels, and sheets are brands new. A really nice bonus!
