Earth house vacation rentals in Hambantota

Only stayed one night at Sandun's place, but a fabulous stay. Went on a great safari tour organized my the host, just a few minutes after checking it. The safari was fantastic with a guide who really knows his stuff, with a keen eye, he kept spotting the animals, that would otherwise not been noticed. After the tour we had a great srilankan dinner at the stay, and then again breakfast in the morning. Delicious!! Highly recommend!!

The perfect escape to immerse yourself in nature and tune-in to your surroundings. Everything was so thoughtfully crafted so as to blend in with the natural surroundings. Walking through the veg garden to the pool and restaurant area under the stars was beautiful. The pool stretching out over the wild shrubland, the edge of the lagoon just visible. The room was beautiful, I loved how simple yet luxurious it felt. The raw concrete, natural walls and beautiful Thale leaf roof. The ceramic water jug and cups were beautiful and I love that there was a candle provided (loved reading in the evenings by candle-light to the sound of birds!). I can't thank Chandara and Vasantu enough for making my stay so easy and for making me feel right at home. They were so considerate and open to sharing all their knowledge of the area and plants that were growing in the garden. The food was unbelievably good too! Will hopefully be back for more cuddles with Sulu and Suli soon!

This is an incredible place surrounded by nature. The rooms are amazing with some trees and really clean. I loved the open roof shower. Sam is a beautiful person that will make you feel like home and will help you with every doubt that you have about yoga, meditation and about life in general. I will try to come back for sure!!

We thoroughly enjoyed staying here and my daughters were excited to have their own little house! It was well set up with a restaurant across the road for breakfast, lunch or dinner, and also packed breakfast for the safari if needed. The hosts were very friendly and showed us lots of birds and animals in the lush garden. They also shared badminton nets and cricket bats for our daughters to play and put up big hammocks to relax in. They were able to arrange everything such as the safari tour, a trip to the local Buddhist temple and to see a colony of fruit bats, and a car to our next destination. I’d recommend going for the 6 hour safari as you can go a bit further into the park and not be around as many jeeps. We saw elephants, mongoose, monitor lizards, the giant Sri Lankan squirrel, crocodiles, wallowing buffalo and 20+ kinds of birds. Recommended as a place to stay near the safari park entrance.

A wonderful stay where you can really switch off and relax. Little to no signal so perfect to put the phone away for a few days and take in the beautiful surrounds. The river excursion was great fun - a picnic by a fast, flowing river where you can jump in for a swim. Probably not suitable for non-confident swimmers, but there is a waterway at the top where you can go for a dip (looked a bit like a canal so we swerved that one!). Loved all the nature and felt very safe. Food was delicious and the dogs are very friendly too. Will definitely be back.

Yakaduru was so awesome! If you are looking to get a different experience from the usual hotel/guest house experience, this is where you should go. Yakaduru Safari Village is campfires, open huts, beautiful views, peace and quiet, great food, great company and truly unique experience. The hosts go above and beyond to ensure an enjoyable and safe experience. It was lovely getting to know them and having great conversations about the country.

Such a special and memorable place. I will remember the sounds of the jungle at night most of all! We did the river excursions, floating breakfast and elephant safari all of which were amazing. Delicious food too!

First of all Sam is very accomoddating, helpful and a great listener, he tries to help with any questions or problems you may have. The location is peaceful, beautiful nature, right in the jungle, you will wake with the birds and go to sleep with the sounds of the insects. All very genuine, the best place to do meditation, yoga or whatewer you are looking for to disconnect from the busy world. Hope to come back very soon!
