The hostess was extremely friendly and helpful. The cleanness of the rooms, size of the room amazing, location in a peaceful quiet very beautiful place, close to the river. We missed the barbecue though. But teh terrace and balcony are worth to try it.

This 3-star hotel has air-conditioned rooms with a private bathroom. The accommodation features a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a shared kitchen and free WiFi. A nice hotel, very clean, super friendly staff and owner, very good service, ... I loved the breakfast and dinner. The location is very quiet, within walking distance of the smaller lake and a 5-minute drive to Tissa lake. It is a good base to explore the area. I also booked 2 safari's with them. Everything was well-organised, from start to finish.

Despite the late hour, the host kindly prepared dinner for me at 11:30 pm and was very attentive. The meal was delicious, enough for two people, and had the perfect level of spice. During my stay, I had a knee injury, and the host and his family were extremely helpful. They carried my bag to my room and even recommended good ointments for my injury. The host also dropped me off at the bus stand free of charge. I would definitely stay here again and highly recommend it to family and friends.

Located on the edge of a rice field and a 5-minute walk from the shores of Lake Yoda, Gaga Bees Yala features free WiFi in public areas. This Eco friendly resort offers an outdoor infinity pool. Guests can relax on the terrace. We had an absolutely amazing stay at Gaga Bees Yala! From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with genuine warmth and outstanding hospitality. The place itself is beautiful—peaceful surroundings, tastefully designed, and perfect for a relaxing getaway close to nature. The staff went above and beyond to make us feel at home. One highlight was how they customized our dinner menu to suit my wife's cravings—something that truly made our stay extra special. The food was delicious and thoughtfully prepared. We also had the pleasure of meeting the owner and his wife, two incredibly humble and kind people who genuinely care about their guests' experience. The Yala safari they arranged for us was fairly priced—much better than other quotes we had—and it was one of the best parts of our trip. Everything was well organized and enjoyable from start to finish. Highly recommend Gaga Bees Yala to anyone looking for comfort, authenticity, and outstanding service near Yala National Park. We’ll definitely be back!
