Self-Catering Accommodations in Kirinda

This is incredibly perfect place for a family that is managing by super nice family (thank you so much Anusha for all your kindness). The villa is cozy and has everything you need, the rooms are very comfortable and pool is amazing. The villa is located near the pound where you can watch different birds and even alligators. We were not much disturbed by insect and reptilians but at the same time you are in the centre of nature. The managing family is happy to provide you with breakfast, lunch and dinner for a very good price, we enjoyed it a lot. Definitely would come back

This quiet little cottage was a perfect place to base ourselves for a few days while we explored Yala, Lunugamvehera, Udawalawe, and Ella. Our hosts, Gayan and his family, went above and beyond to ensure we had a happy and comfortable visit, and we were honored to be their first guests through Booking.com. Their kindnesses included such touches as providing us with limes from their own tree and preparing us a special breakfast (including delicious milk rice) on our first day. They also showed us around town and even helped my friend find a shop that had some particular things she was looking for. The property itself is cozy and beautiful. If you sleep in the front room (the one with the king bed and small bed), you can fall asleep to the sounds of the distant sea even with the windows closed. If you prefer a more silent night, you will find that in the back room (the one with the loft bed). The front room opens to the outdoor living space you see in the photos. It is a beautiful place to sit with your morning coffee or to relax in the afternoon. The back room and the kitchen open to the outdoors, and there is a paved walkway connecting the back room, the kitchen, and the outdoor living space. There are friendly dogs who will hang out with you on the property, but they do not enter the porch/living area or the rooms. They are sweet, calm, pleasant company. There's a good restaurant next door, which is convenient for dinner. You could cook in the well-prepared kitchen, but we did not do this during our stay. We also did not walk to town, although you probably could. The hosts are planning to add a couple more rooms to the property over time, but for now, it's just this one perfect little cottage. Much as the name suggests, Garnet Yala Beach truly is a gem. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place near the parks who wants a peaceful beachy spot hosted by a lovely family.

It’s is best hotel and nice location

The place is so family friendly, it has everything you'll need to spend a few days, they make you feel home with it's coziness and good decoration taste. The kids were trilled.

The venue is beautiful, very special place with lots of trees and in a peaceful zone of the city. The owner is very friendly & knowledgeable about safari trails & organized for me an amazing safari experience for a great price. Lunch was one of the best I had in my trip to Sri Lanka. Highly recommended.

Wow this is not just a place to sleep but an entire experience! It is rare to come across such selfless kindness but that is what Asha and her husband provide! The home itself is beautiful and set amongst nature where you can see deer and wild peacocks roam and the bats fly at night. The room is spotless with a cute balcony and very comfortable bed. They organized the Yala safari tour for me. The local area is also beautiful so I’d recommend staying an extra few days if you can! They picked me up and dropped me off at my bus stop and as a female solo traveler I was very grateful for this. They provided me with refreshments and meals - all delicious by the way! Asha made me a top as she is a very talented seamstress. They even took me out to show me Vesak festival. I can’t explain how welcoming and friendly they are. By the end of my stay here I consider them friends! Very special people and if you have the chance to stay here then you are lucky!

Lovely family, beautiful place surrounded by rice fields. There were some insects in the bathroom because they had a lot of rain recently but we suggested to the owner to add some mesh/netting outside the bathroom windows to try to prevent bugs from coming in and he seemed receptive of the suggestion. Also a mosquito net in the room would be great! We booked a half day Yala tour through them and it was nice they organized that for us and we enjoyed the safari. We didn’t eat at the accommodation but it was an option for them to cook dinner since the location is a bit secluded. Room was comfy but those couple of adjustments would make it even better! We would still recommend staying here if you want some peace and quiet! Just note there was no WiFi but our Sri Lankan eSIM worked well there.
