Das Hotel allgemein
Arana or අරණ in Sinhala means ‘wilderness’, and as such our space provides a cozy haven surrounded by jungle scenery and sounds of nature to help you wind down and relax after an exhausting search for the elusive Sri Lankan Leopard! Indulge in the peace and tranquility that seeps into this space of relaxation from the surrounding forest. Let your wanderlust take over as you delve deep into the wild jungle depth of Yala to be in the presence of the majestic Sri Lankan Elephant and to witness the alluring charm of the Sri Lankan Leopard. Explore the unknown and wander into uncharted jungle territory. Discover yourself at Arana where you will enjoy gracious hospitality in an idyllic, spacious ambiance close to the Yala National Park.
Die Lage des Hotels
Our hotel is set amidst a rustic village at the Yala junction. Formally a fishing village rich in history of the area. Surrounded by lush greenery the village is in close proximity to Kirinda beach and the wilderness of Yala National Park. Elephants are often spotted walking outside our gates, to reach the paddy fields beyond our hotel, and therefore we do not encourage being on foot outside hotel premises after sun down.
