Guest reviews for The Bend
"It is the very definition of a boutique hotel with only 3 rooms you get very personalized service"
"My room was a bit small and no place to put luggage"
"Excellent location right in the center of Galle fort. Also has nice breakfast options."
"Aucun."
"Great central location. I was lucky to get a corner room, had a nice corner balcony overlooking a lively intersection in the evening. Also lovely host who was always there to help. Sweet simple breakfast. Really nice stay."
"The bathroom is surrounded by glass, like floor to ceiling (but there are also curtains if needed). No problem since I was traveling solo, but maybe odd if traveling with a friend."
"The location was incredibly convenient, making it easy to get around and explore the Galle fort. The room was small, but it was very clean and well-maintained, offering excellent value for the price. Staff was so friendly and always ready to help with anything we needed. I’d definitely recommend this hotel to anyone looking for comfort, cleanliness, and great service at an affordable price."

"The location was so comfortable to reach most of the attractions. It was the center of the Fortress too."
"Balcony was so narrow. It is nice to have a small chair to enjoy the evening from the balcony."
"Viku was one of the warm host throughout our stay and thanks for the lovely breakfast spread. The property is located in the centre of the town in close proximity to all the major places. The room was clean and of decent size☺️"
"The washroom can be built a bit better and the lighting of the room can be improved a bit."

"My wife and I stayed here for two nights. The location is great, right next to Yala National Park. The huts are hand-built, made of clay, living in them is a unique experience. The host is very kind and friendly, helps in any way he can, we are very grateful to him for that and are glad that we met! 😊 The host also prepared some delicious traditional food for us. He will also help with organizing a safari, and can take you around the area himself and tell you interesting stories!"

"This was a nicely designed hotel, with spacious rooms. Conveniently located for Yala safari pickups. There was even a peacock to greet us every morning outside our balcony!"

"I can’t put into words just how beautiful and spectacular this place is. Honestly WOW! My rooms that had over 15 foot ceilings, everything made of stone, fans and air conditioning, the nature surrounding us, the Pool and the hotel grounds, the warm and amazing staff! My stay was short and I regret not staying longer. Just AMAZING and also the owner was there to answer all my questions and last minute demands. Don’t forget to tip the staff because they go over and beyond for you."

"What an unforgettable stay! The location of this camp is beautiful and perfectly located for the safari tour. You have direct access to the dune area during sun set hours. Just be aware that you will have to walk quite a bit through deep sand and there are a lot of nature sounds during the night."
"Staff going beyond expectations. Nice spot at the outskirt of the park. Amazing food experience - you taste many local dishes and they explain them to you in a lovely setting with candles and a campfire."
Nathalie Leopard Safaris Yala
