We came to Kataragama for 2 days of a full day safari tour. The place is simple, clean and ideal for that 2 -3 nights stay close to the Yala National Park.. There is no hot water, but the weather was so hot that we won't need that.

Exquisite stay with excellent service. They really give attention to details with compliments to the manager Lucky. The overall feel of the villa is luxury. The online photos already look amazing, but in real life it is even better with a majestic entrance and beautiful lights. They serve great food, I especially loved the authentic Sri Lankan cuisine. They even accommodated our driver. The private villa is beautiful with comfortable beds (on second floor), modern bathroom with natural roof light and a cozy living room. We even had the luxury of a private pool, but otherwise there is a lovely common pool. Overall best stay so far in Sri Lanka with excellent service!!

A Wonderful Transformation – A True Hidden Gem! Our stay was absolutely wonderful from start to finish. It's clear the new management has poured love and effort into this place, and it shows everywhere you look. The upgrades are fantastic: a beautiful new swimming pool, a gorgeous new restaurant area, and lovely updates to the rooms and backyard. The food in the restaurant was delicious, and the service was excellent and so attentive. A special thanks to the manager, Anu, who went above and beyond to check on us and attend to all our needs, making us feel incredibly valued. With all the amazing improvements and the incredibly warm service, it truly felt like a second home. We will definitely be coming back again. This place has tuned into a real hidden gem!

A Tranquil Escape Amidst Nature's Embrace I recently had the pleasure of staying at La Pentera Resort, and my experience was nothing short of magical. The highlight of my stay was undoubtedly the extraordinary tree house accommodation, complete with a luxurious jacuzzi. This unique feature added a touch of opulence to my stay, making it an unforgettable experience. The resort's serene ambiance was further enhanced by the mesmerizing canoe rides on the lake. Gliding through the calm waters surrounded by nature's beauty was a truly wonderful experience, allowing me to connect with the tranquility of the surroundings. In addition to the exceptional amenities, the resort's staff was warm, welcoming, and always ready to assist, ensuring that every aspect of my stay was delightful. Overall, La Pentera Resort provided the perfect blend of luxury, adventure, and relaxation. If you're seeking a tranquil escape amidst nature's embrace, this resort is the ideal destination. I can't wait to return and indulge in its serene charm once again.

Heartfelt Thanks for a Wonderful Stay at Mandara Rosen Hotel, Kataragama. I would like to express my sincere gratitude for the excellent service I received during my recent stay at Mandara Rosen Hotel in Kataragama. Everything about the hotel was wonderful, from the comfortable accommodations to the beautiful surroundings. A special thank you to the front office team Mr. Amila, Ms. Nilushika, and Mr. Ruchira who made my stay even more memorable. They were incredibly helpful, friendly, and welcoming, and their professionalism truly stood out. Their assistance made my experience seamless, and I felt genuinely cared for. I will certainly recommend Mandara Rosen Hotel to friends and family, and I look forward to visiting again in the future. Thank you once again for your exceptional hospitality.

Where do I begin... What an experience! We were picked up exactly at the time they said by the great jeep that already put us in the safari mood. We were expexting a nice tent but were blown away by the size of the tent and how comfortable it was. The dinner was nice as was the lunch the next day, but we didn´t come for food. THE BEST things were the night walk (scary!!!!) and the safari tour the next day and we had a great guide, Jelo, who made it extra fun and informative. Great sense of humor and an all round great guy! We saw the leopard! And monkeys, water buffalos, crocodiles, the list is long. The scenery took our breath away. Everything ran like clock work, very professional and friendly.

Awesome stay close to the one entrance to Yala. The owners helped us organize a full day safari with packed breakfast bags and lunch. Very friendly people working here! Rooms are comfortable with nice beds and well working AC. It feels like living in the jungle with monkeys often spotted in the trees around the hotel.

We’re really glad we chose the Mailagama Cinnamon Residence for our stay in Kataragama. The staff treated us with great respect and warm hospitality.

It is a holy place visited by Buddhists and Hindus alike.

It is a holy place visited by Buddhists and Hindus alike. Some Muslims also visit a mosque located in the sacred area. Buddhist usually visit the Kiri Vehera area first and then come to the Devale premises. There are circular roads to facilitate that sequence. Otherwise, one can walk to the Devale premises and then proceed to the Kiri Vehera premises. There are lot of boutiques selling various items including offerings for Devale. They are located in the town area. After that one has to cross a small bridge over the Menik River to enter the sacred area. Over the years both sides of the river have been re-organized for a better sequential experience.

Buttala is a beautiful little city close to the northern part of Yala National Park. If you pass by (maybe on your way to/from the east coast), stop here and enjoy a couple of nights in the local homestays (we can fully recommend Yala Avian Eye Safari!!). Safaris from here are calm and you can enjoy the northern part without hundreds of other jeeps.

Kataragama itself is a temple town and that’s pretty much it. Other than that it’s a jumping off point for safari in yala and kumana. One day is more than enough for cultural/religious aspects. The Perahara (pageant) in July is fantastic. Be warned that it may not start till midnight and may need pre booked tickets. Also watch out for pickpockets in crowded areas around this time. The country side and the rural life as well as the wildlife is fantastic and authentic. Quite hot and sunny year round but dec to feb is more comfortable.
