It feels a bit isolated for a solo traveller. The wifi doesn't work.

The accomodation is clean and comfortable.

I loved everything!

My mom and I stayed at Go Yala farm, and it was such a great experience. The place is absolutely beautiful, surrounded by nature, and so peaceful, perfect for escaping the city. There’s also a yoga space with a lovely view, which made for some really relaxing sessions. The rooms are new, clean, and spacious, which made our stay super comfortable. The staff were all really friendly and welcoming. One of the best parts was exploring the farm and banana plantation they have on-site, it’s really interesting, and we spotted lots of birds around the area too, not just the peacocks! The internet was great, which was important for me as I work online, and the food was incredible, especially the coconut pancakes 😁 We also took advantage of their Yala National Park tour, and they planned everything for us, we didn't have to worry about a thing. It was safe, well-organized, and we saw so many different animals, which I loved. I'd definitely recommend this place for anyone looking for a peaceful getaway with a lot of nature to explore.

Excellent food (dinner) and view. If you like to be alone in silent place, you will like that.

It was the best service during our whole stay in Sri Lanka. Very friendly owner and a great hospitality.rooms are also super clean and comfortable.the surrounding is nice and quiet, there are chairs and a table in front of the bungalow, it's perfect for a cup of tea after a safari. We also had breakfast and dinner here, which was very good. there are peacocks all over the place and other bird life to be seen too. Also organised our trip to Yala National Park, we had a driver that really knew his stuff and had the most amazing eyesight.

We saw a leopard up close, a tusker elephant, more elephants bathing, and crocodiles, lizards, birds etc. I am really recommend better to organized Yala Safari with them. Because there have so many fake safari organizations.

Go Yala Farm Villa staff was wonderful and helpful, and the food was delicious- specially Sri Lankan rice and curry we had for dinner. It’s located in front of very beautiful lake. It’s the perfect property to go to yala safari. They also organised the professional safari tour. The safari driver is very experienced, he took us to the hidden places and we managed to see the leopard 🐆 up close and also the bear 🐻 which is very rare to see. wonderful place to stay.we hope to come back one day.

I’m a solo traveler, the cottage was very cozy for me. And the environment is quite and chilled. It was totally fine with the fan even tho without air conditioning in the wooden made cottage, not hot at all. (No mosquitos!!!! Very important to me!) Bonus point is the location is not next to the main road, so it’s quite. And U can see buffalo, cows, peacocks and lots of birds just front of the cottage. The safari tour guy arrived at 4.30am and pick me up to Yala National park. He was the experienced one, knowing every species u see in the park. What a great safari experience and chilled time in the cottage. Definitely worth it! If u also wanna stay away from the city and parties for 2 or 3 days, without doubt this is a good one!

This place is a little slice of paradise! My partner and I booked here as part of our honeymoon in Sri Lanka and felt as though we were treated like King and Queen! The hospitality was second to none and the food was outstanding, by far the best rice and curry I had during my stay in Sri Lanka. We booked Half board and even though we booked our safari through Yala Park, Go Yala Farm Villa provided us with a packed breakfast and lunch and really thought of every little detail as to what we would need for a full day out on safari. Yala Safari Tour was amazing. Our driver was quick to spot all kinds of wildlife both big and small. We were able to see 30+ elephants including a few babies, crocodile, water buffaloes, eagles, storks, kingfishers, bee eater birds and even a Leopard. Our driver eagle eye even spotted some elusive geckos and chameleons sunning themselves on bush branches as we drove by. Even when I had a delicate matter that needed some attention, they showed compassion and went out of their way to make our stay as comfortable as possible. My partner and I will look back on Kele with very fond memories for years to come. Definitely book here if you can. Lovely, lovely place, the best part of our stay in Sri Lanka.

You will booked the Cottage they are asked you to do the Safari Tours.So easy to booked the safari like this. If you would like to go for a safari in Sri Lanka choose these guys. Good service, good communication. They are really taking care of you on a safari. They know where to find the wished animals.Our guide was very cheerful, energetic, spoke good English, and very informative about the park and animals. He was able to spot small and big animals alike, and a good tracker...We saw 3 leopards, sloth bear elephants and many other wildlife and lot of birds.The safari is truly great and I think it is doesn't matter which part of the day are you choose. My tip is if you would like to go for other excursions ask them because they have a really good connections! They are also great if you need transfer! Highly recommended!

We can highly recommend this property, especially for couples with the romantic view. We had a large room and steaming hot water. It’s was very comfortable and clean. Staff is very friendly and they did a great job as I'm being able to surprise our wedding anniversary with their help. Their food is very delicious and fresh. In this property, you can enjoy the authentic Sri Lankan food and it makes you feel that you're staying at your home.Nature all around, with lizards, tortoises, peacocks , eagles and and differnt kind of birds, right in our around the yard. And Specially it's located infront of the lake so they also arrnge the BBQ dinner in the lake area. In the night they arrange night elephant watching tour by jeep . that's was nice experience i ever had. They even arranged our safari into Yala national parks the next day and our day trip even included breakfast and lunch and the person they have contacted for us is reliable and well manners and well experienced. also the stuff was very friendly and professional. They are know to explain the envioronmet and also about animals I am pretty sure I will come back soon. A lovely place!
