Positive: - Owner super helpful, very available via WhatsApp to provide advice on buses etc. Booked me a tuk tuk when my bus didn't come and charged a reasonable price - the tuk tuk arrived about 5mins after I'd messaged the owner which was great - Location 10mins walk from park entrance - Booked safari thriugh them which is the best one I've done so far in SL (have visited 2 other national parks including Yala). Also booked the elephant transit home visit which was good - Room spacious, clean and comfortable - They prepare meals around your preferred time frames which is handy
Negative: - Some soap in the bathroom would be good - Would also be good to choose breakfast as one day was significantly better than the other - They give you bottled water with every meal which I had assumed was free but I was charged at the end of my stay for it
Summary: Good value

Positive: Very close to the National Park entrance- ideally located for a dawn safari (~5:30 am pickup). Clean rooms, comfy beds, good AC, nice garden surrounds. Some rooms didn't seem to have hot water, but in the tropics you barely need it anyway. Kuma and his staff were wonderfully helpful and friendly. Recommended.

Positive: You might think there is a catch with the price of a stay here. There isn’t. Kuma runs a safari trip which you can also purchase. There is no hard sell but it’s a no brainer and good value. Staying here means you are 5 mins from the park entrance and, hence, we were the 2nd vehicle in. That meant we got to the lake whilst the crocodiles were still out and about. Our guide was very knowledgeable and we had a super day. The accommodation is clean and comfortable. We ate our dinner there as well, which was good value. All in all a good memorable trip.
Summary: Great location, friendly guide and good value
