Positive: I had an incredible experience at Jungle Haven Retreat! The setting deep in the Sri Lankan jungle is absolutely breathtaking. The staff was wonderfully welcoming and made us feel right at home. The houses were cozy and beautifully nestled in nature, creating a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. One of the most unforgettable moments was the amazing dinner we had on the rock, with a fire burning beside us under the open sky—it was truly magical and unlike anything I've experienced before. The traditional Sri Lankan meals were another highlight—so flavorful and made with love. If you're looking for a unique jungle experience with warm hospitality and unforgettable moments, this place is absolutely worth it. I can’t wait to return!

Positive: So secluded, watering hole opposite hut meant we had our own mini safari all day long with different animals coming along. Staff were incredible, great energy, wonderful with our young children, adjusted menu and timings to suit our kids.
Negative: If I’m being totally fussy the mattress is slightly hard for me - wouldn’t stop me going again.
Summary: Nature at its best!

Positive: I recently stayed at Yala Jungle Haven with my family, and it was an unforgettable experience! The safari organized by the team was the highlight of our trip, and our guide, Thusara, was exceptional. His knowledge and expertise made sure we had an amazing time, and we even spotted elephants bathing with a calf. The accommodation was authentic, serene, and comfortable, and our hosts went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. The food was delicious, and we enjoyed the campfire under the full moon. Our kids loved the guided walk near the camp, where we witnessed an elephant grazing in the late afternoon. We also got to plant a tree in the camp and look forward to returning in the future when it has grown. I highly recommend Yala Jungle Haven for anyone looking to immerse themselves in nature and experience the beauty of Yala National Park.

Positive: This place is great. Facilities are nothing fancy but the staff are local, real and fantastic. Rebuilding after COVID devastated the local tourism industry. Food (dinner x2, packed breakfast for Safari) was great. Safari arranged by YJH was fantastic (saw the coveted leopard!). Room is basic but perfectly adequate. Fan only overnight but that was fine as we were only there at evening/night. No hot water but the weather is warm, so it didn’t matter. Mosquito nets provided. I was single mum with 2 teenage daughters. It was great for the kids to experience something a bit more basic near the National Park.
Negative: A bit hard to find, let’s just call it a hidden gem. The last 500m is best accessed with a 4WD. YJH can collect you and take you out in one of their 4WDs.
Summary: Book here. Reduce your footprint. Enjoy nature. Save your money. Give your money to the locals.

Positive: Loved our stay at Yala Jungle Haven. The rooms are as shown and described. The dinner was great and really lovely to have a fire as well. The staff were wonderful and even took us on a walk before dinner to spot some wildlife. The safari through them was amazing and our guide, Suraj, was very experienced and even though there were many jeeps, we got a first look at a leopard and saw lots more!! Highly recommend, thank you!

Positive: Yala Jungle Haven is located just 15 mins from the Ticket Counter. This means that you did not need to wake up so early, and yet, you can be one of the earliest to get to the front of the queue at the Ticket Counter. Yet, the cabins are 'hidden' within the jungle, so you are completely surrounded by nature. This also means that electricity is available only from 6pm to 5+am by the generator. There is a fan, plugs for charging and some lights. Dinner can be ordered and the meals were delicious.
Negative: There was no curtain for the window, so there was no privacy for the one right next to the bed. For the other windows, it would be great if there are mosquito nets across the windows so that I can open to let in some air. I have given feedback to the management, and they were very happy to learn how they can improve the cabins for the comfort of the guests.
