Pool area was nice. ##### Rachel Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Dec 7, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Lovely experience. Staff were very friendly. Could have done with some more free water in the room. And food at the buffet could have been hotter. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Razi Aug 11, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Well kept chalets nicely designed. Attentive staff, but check-in was slow. Road to the property could be improved for those arriving by small cars. ##### Razi Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### anders Jul 11, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Yala Great resort on the edge of Yala park. Pool area next to a small lake with wildlife living and visiting. Crocodiles, elephants, water buffaloes, boars among a big amount of different birds. Guided walks and rides into the Yala park. Wonderful staff making the stay very comfortable. Good and assorted breakfast and large dinner buffet with local and European options. Restaurant and bar by the pool with Saman and others making the stay at it’s best. ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/A88F7993E7CB6F6CAB4FE97AD2735CD2B8C057E01720663165528.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/889DEA38F4FB91AD1C81F17D72C407DF06DCEC641720663162401.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### anders Stayed 3 nights in Jul 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Tracy Nov 18, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities An experience like no other staying at this location. A spa like elevated beach chalet with wild sights and sounds from every direction. We woke up to a wild bore digging in the sand and enjoyed an evening cocktail at the lounge as an elephant walking through the resort. In between a couple crocs lazing about. I’d highly recommend the nature hike as it opened our eyes to many things we were simply walking past. The food was varied and delicious. ##### Tracy Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2023 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Richard Jul 8, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Brilliant WILD cinnamon is really fantastic! And better than the photos suggest! We travel a lot and this was relaxing, really natural really fits in the wild (environment). Animal roam freely through great for the kids to see. Great, thank you. See you again bye. Champika In the restaurant was great really looked after us. As did Saman in the Pug Marks Pool Bar, really really great guy. ##### Richard Stayed 2 nights in Jul 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Martin Jan 22, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The hotel is well placed for the National Park and has many animals in and around the property, such as elephants, crocodiles, monkeys, birds etc. The rooms are excellent but the rest of the property is fairly basic. Food OK, Pool area OK. Sun loungers poor. Reception area poor. We took a morning Safari, which was good but no better than that. DO NOT go on a Safari if you suffer from back or neck issues. It is incredibly bouncy in the car. The beach is wild and untamed. Cinnamon Wild Yala was good but I expected better and especially as the price is high. ##### Martin Stayed 3 nights in Jan 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Limberg Oct 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great stay and fun activities We enjoyed our stay at Cinnamon Wild Yala. We did the stargazing with Kasun. We saw the moon and Saturn and enjoyed the view and the discussion with Kasun. Glad we did this activity! We also went on a nature walk with Gayan Gamage on the 16th of october 2024, and it was absolutely amazing. He was super friendly and knew a lot about the nature and the tracking of the animals. It was very interesting, and we saw a lot of the local animals. We hightly recommend this to anyone who likes the nature and animals. Gayan was friendly and easy to talk to and we had a great time! He was also very good at involving the children and our daughter loved him and wanted a picture taken with him after the tour :) ##### Limberg Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Limberg Oct 29, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great stay in the wild We enjoyed our stay at Cinnamon Wild Yala.

Shame they didn’t have star gazing on offer as I was looking forward to that. The staff are friendly and there is a sumptuous buffet if you are half board. ##### Sophia Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Casino Hotels in Penang](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Penang-Casino-Hotel.0-0-d2766-tCasinoHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Hotels in Parksville](https://www.expedia.ca/Parksville-Hotels.d10645.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Cottages Ontario](https://www.expedia.ca/Ontario-Cottages.d11178-aaCottages.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Courtyard by Marriott Kitchener](https://www.expedia.ca/Kitchener-Hotels-Radisson-Hotel-Kitchener-Waterloo.h446570.Hotel-Information) > > [Family Hotels in New Brunswick](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-New-Brunswick-Family-Hotel.0-0-d11161-tFamilyHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Four Seasons Hotel London at Park Lane](https://www.expedia.ca/London-Hotels-Four-Seasons-Hotel-London-At-Park-Lane.h20098.Hotel-Information) > > [Golf Hotels in Laurentians](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Laurentians-Golf-Hotel.0-0-d6356545-tGolfHotel.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Kimpton Shorebreak Fort Lauderdale Beach Resort by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Fort-Lauderdale-Hotels-Kimpton-Goodland-Fort-Lauderdale-Beach.h66154707.Hotel-Information) > > [Candlewood Suites Orlando - Lake Buena Vista by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Orlando-Hotels-Candlewood-Suites-Orlando-Lake-Buena-Vista.h35516849.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express and Suites Moose Jaw by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Moose-Jaw-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-And-Suites-Moose-Jaw.h83711819.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Vancouver](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels.d178315.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Cheap Hotels in Japan](https://www.expedia.ca/Destinations-In-Japan-Cheap-Hotels.0-0-d89-tCheapHotels.Hotel-Filter-Destinations) > > [Juniper Hill Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Ogunquit-Hotels-Juniper-Hill-Inn.h1064465.Hotel-Information) > > [Bahia Principe Luxury Runaway Bay - Adults Only - All Inclusive](https://www.expedia.ca/Montego-Bay-Hotels-Bahia-Principe-Luxury-Runaway-Bay-Adults-Only-All-Inclusive.h7229415.Hotel-Information) > > [JW Marriott San Francisco Union Square](https://www.expedia.ca/San-Francisco-Hotels-JW-Marriott-San-Francisco-Union-Square.h2063.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Dar es Salaam (DAR) to Calgary (YYC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/dar/yyc/dar-es-salaam-to-calgary) > > [Flights from Madison (MSN) to Toronto (YYZ)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/msn/yyz/madison-to-toronto) > > [flights from buffalo narrows airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/yvt/flights-from-buffalo-narrows-airport) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Sosúa (POP)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/pop/calgary-to-puerto-plata) > > [Air Canada](https://www.expedia.ca/Air-Canada-Flights.cAC.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from Lahore (LHE) to Calgary (YYC)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/lhe/yyc/lahore-to-calgary) > > [Flights from Frankfurt (FRA) to Edmonton (YEG)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fra/yeg/frankfurt-to-edmonton) > > [Flights from Calgary (YYC) to Saskatchewan (YKY)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyc/yky/calgary-to-kindersley) > > [Flights from Buffalo (BUF) to Cancun (CUN)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/buf/cun/buffalo-to-cancun) > > [Flights from Phoenix (PHX) to Montreal (YUL)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/phx/yul/phoenix-to-montreal) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to Miami (MIA)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/mia/toronto-to-miami) > > [flights from abruzzo intl airport](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/airports/psr/flights-from-abruzzo-intl-airport) > > [Flights from Toronto (YYZ) to London (YXU)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyz/yxu/toronto-to-london) ### Cars > [Car rentals in Edmonton](https://www.expedia.ca/Car-Rentals-In-Edmonton.d180002.Car-Rental-Guide)
