We really enjoyed our stay at Yala Yin Yang Hostel. The place is in very close proximity to the national park so you might be able to spot wildlife right from the terrace or window. Dimuthu, the owner, as well as Seneca, the manager, are incredibly friendly and helpful. Seneca took us for a walk on our first day and showed us a crocodile pond and a nice beach close by. They also helped us organize a really good full day jeep tour through the Nationalpark. The next town is Kirinda which is 10 minutes away by motorbike or scooter. Take your time and enjoy the ride - we spotted monkeys, crocodiles, eagles, water buffaloes and wild elephants close to the road! We booked the 3-bedroom option for three nights, which was clean but simple and had an en-suite bathroom. The design of the building is very open, so be ready to have nature (lizards, insects) being in a room with you from time to time. We did not mind at all but it’s definitely not for everyone. We highly recommend this place for people who want to connect with nature and appreciate the simplicity of this place. We will definitely be back!

Spacious room, very friendly and helpful staff. They can arrange a very tasteful BBQ diner in a very nice setting with a campfire. They really did everything to make our stay comfortable for our full day safari. Lodge is also very close to one of the National park entrances.

Can not recommend this place enough! Feels more like a home than a hostel, huge dorm rooms, immaculately clean and smells lovely as you walk in. The owner, Pradeep, was really friendly, humble and caring. He arranged my group safari tour of Yala for a very reasonable price and made us all coffee in the morning before we left for it and breakfast at the park. Very informative and taught me various different things about Sri Lanka. The best shower and sleep I’ve had the entire time I’ve been in the country. Above and beyond on looking after me during my stay would be an understatement. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay and for your kindness!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travellers know that there is no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a bit more.
