Take a Walk on the Wild Side
The road leading to the hotel is a narrow, dusty one, bordering the massive lake with crocodile, pelican and deer that live in perfect harmony with the hotel. Cinnamon Wild Yala’s strategic location also means that an elephant, wild boar and other feral friends come regularly to visit us from the park next door – and if you are really lucky, a leopard may pass you by.
Accomodation
This forest lodge resort houses 68 chalets including 8 beach chalets that are right by the Yala beach, built on a 10-foot elevation, giving you the perfect vantage point from which to view a stray elephant go by. The wild exteriors and plush interiors combine to create a memorable and comfortable stay here at Cinnamon Wild Yala, and you are bound to have a myriad of stories to take back home with you.

Dining
If you’re yearning for a Yala hotel in Sri Lanka that provides memorable dining experiences right in the heart of the jungle, then Yala Wild is your ideal choice. As with everything else about the forest lodge, the dining experiences are very much connected to the wilderness that surrounds us.
Climb a flight of wooden stairs above the reception and walk into Tuskers, the main restaurant that lets you dine by the trees, especially if you choose to sit on one of the outer decks.
Climb yet another floor upwards to the viewing deck and rooftop bar. Maybe you’d prefer having a drink and ordering an A-la-Carte meal at Pug Marks, the jungle-themed bar on the ground floor.
At Cinnamon Wild Yala, it is about great meals all the way, combining locally sourced food and spices with great taste and forest atmosphere that’s truly incomparable. They also offer great “destination dining” options that bring you that much closer to the call of the wild.
