Tangalla hotellia

Plussat: We had the most amazing stay! The genuine and kind hospitality of the staff and owner Nick was so nice. The hotel oozes personality and style, with little touches that makes it special and memorable. I don't think the photos online do it justice, its much nicer. And the food both local and international is great :). We wished we could have stayed longer, two days just wasn't enough!

Plussat: What a fantastic hotel - such a beautiful setting right next to the turtle beach. Food is absolutely amazing and the animals on the property are sure to make you smile!

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Everything absolutely amazing we really enjoyed our stay there

Miinukset: There was nothing we didn't like

Plussat: Amazing locations, views, and pool. Amazing staff and attention to details. Excellent breakfast!

Plussat: The property is a tranquil oasis with the most wonderful staff who assist you in every way possible. The food is delicious and the breakfast that is included is exceptional! A truly magical place to stay!

Miinukset: There was nothing we did not like but perhaps some music in the spa could add to the atmosphere.

Plussat: Stunning hotel, we were blown away from when we arrived to our gorgeous huge villa covered with flower petals, with an outdoor bathroom/shower. Although out of town, the privacy and scenery is worth it, located directly on the beach, with ocean views during meal times. Two pools to enjoy, one with swim up bar. Food is delicious with rotating menu every few days, plus all day breakfast is a bonus. Service is impeccable and staff are very attentive. Best hotel I've stayed at.

Plussat: Loved everything. The service was amongst the best I’ve ever come across and the food was Devine. Absolute luxury with a keen eye on what the customer wants.

Plussat: Excellent service. Amazing facilities and accommodation. Felt like a home away from home. Nick, Bella, gracie and all the team were fantastic. I would highly recommend staying at Buckingham place.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: This place was amazing! We enjoyed our last 6 nights there and it was as relaxing as it could be. The staff is super friendly and takes such great care of its customers. The food was delicious, the room beautiful and clean, the surroundings awesome, the spa super relaxing, the beach stunning, the pool and restaurant great.

Miinukset: The place is perfect. There was not one thing to complain about. About the surroundings: you have to be aware that the beach is not for swimming (obviously not the hotels fault and they communicate it openly on their website). Not much within walking distance (for us it was what we were looking for; if you need to get around the staff will happily arrange any transport or activities for you).

Plussat: The staff! The food! The location!

Plussat: Staff were fantastic especially our room host Shanakya, everything we needed was taken care of with minimum of fuss! Food was also superb, especially the breakfast. Would have no hesitation in recommending this hotel to any traveler.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The location is stunning, beautiful beach and lovely garden. You do feel like you're in paradise. It is worthwhile to choose the Ocean View room and enjoy the great view. The rooms are nicely decorated, very spacious and clean and you can even watch the waves crush from your bathtub :) Nice and fast check in / check out process, you get all the info you need. Everyone at the hotel is very nice and welcoming, trying to make your stay as nice as possible. My hostesses, Sayuri, was extremely nice and helpful, always there for any questions or support. I thoroughly enjoyed the garden tour by the hotel naturalist, Sudheera, that I found very informative and interesting, so recommended. Nice Yoga classes with a view. Breakfast is great, lovely pool area and service. Everything is clean and well maintained.

Miinukset: 1. The services were very expensive. I understand it is a 5 stars exclusive hotel but perhaps the strategy can be revised and more guests would consume more and be happier. $ 135 for the spa treatment or $ 75 for a one course + desert for one person is pretty pricey... 2. Everyone in the hotel is very nice and helpful but sometimes it can be a bit too much. You are asked at least 5 times if you like the food or if you want coffee, etc. Sometimes you prefer to just enjoy without being interrupted that often. So just look for the right balance in terms of customer service. 3. I would've liked to have a bar by the beach. Perhaps that was not available due to the off season? ... 4. The pool should be opened later than 18.30 since there are no other activities to be done (other than eat and drink) after this hour. 5. There was some refurbishing activity going on right next to the pool. I did not mind that as I preferred to spend the time by the ocean but this information should've been made available prior to booking as it can be disturbing

Plussat: Had a wonderful stay at this lovely resort. Got a villa with the pool and 24/7 butler Piyal who is absolutely highlight of my stay. This place is full of fun facilities and activities (surfing, cooking class, yoga, gym, ecological park, spa) with many nice restaurants. The morning meditation, freshly made breakfast with gorgeous sea view is the best way to start my day. The staffs here were so helpful and caring. Highly recommend the service at this hotel and I’ll deff choose to stay here again

Miinukset: Nothing to complain.

Plussat: The amazing view from the luxury bedroom, the exquisite service of the staff, highly professional and kind, ready to satisfy any request. Once you arrived a typical welcoming ritual is waiting for you, and you are followed by a personal concierge during all the staying. The food at the buffet is delicious, higher than standard

Plussat: Amazing location, fabulous staff and great food! We had the best time there

Miinukset: A lot of little bugs due to the weather

Plussat: The ambience the, treatment you receive when you arrive. Pasan our Guest Relation Officer was very welcoming and helpful in every possible way

Miinukset: There was not much not to like about.

Plussat: Forthcoming and very friendly staff Highest standards in service and amenities for guest

Plussat: The staff - especially our host Madu and the driver Dinnish - was really special to us. We had a birthday at the hotel and Madu did everything to make it perfect. + 10 people made a birthday card and they sang a song and they decorated the room with flowers and everything - so nice! Dinnish got up in the middle of the night to drive us to the local hospital to get medicine to an infection. He did everything in his power to help.

Miinukset: If you want alcoholic drinks - do not go there in Binara full moon poya day. They do not serve it (but you can find wine in the minibar in the room).

Plussat: Cleaning

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: As per previous reviews I read, this place is amazing. So relaxing and all you can hear are the crashing sounds of the waves which drown out all unwanted sounds (i.e. sound of children in the pool!). The view from our hotel room was amazing and I could have spent all day looking out at the sea. The nature walk with the hotel’s nature expert was super interesting, even for the children. We were even invited to a rice planting ceremony! The staff are all incredible and the restaurant food exceptionally good for both breakfast and dinner. Drinking water in glass bottles was provided for free everywhere in the resort and even sun cream was provided by each deckchair. Surprise activities were provided on rainy days (it was monsoon season). On our second before last day, we had an accident in our room at night (children playing!) and I couldn’t imagine a better response from any hotel. They whisked my husband and son off to a nearby hospital to get our son’s head checked and were so thoughtful to call me in my room (I had to stay with our toddler) to give me updates. They even covered the hospital bill! Exceptional care and service in every way.

Miinukset: I loved everything, but if we hadn’t had the half board offer included in our 7 night stay, we would have found the food very expensive, though the quality is indeed fantastic. The pool bar was quite expensive for lunch, but we ate so much at breakfast and dinner, so we didn’t have to order much for lunch - just for the kids.

Miinukset: Henkilökunta

Plussat: Excellent service!

Miinukset: The sand flys for the beach.

Plussat: The location on Mawella beach was amazing. The staff were fantastic. The accommodation was the best and the food was also great

Plussat: We spent Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day at this wonderful place. The villa is beautiful and the setting is out of this world. The sea out the front of the property is perfect for swimming and the water is clear and warm. What really sets this place apart though is the service. They made Christmas so special for us and we can’t wait to come back!

Plussat: This place is magic! If you are looking for relax, privacy,exclusivity and beauty, this is the place. Our room with a private pool was huge! You can have a private dinner or go to the Taru Tangalle Social restaurant, the other property just next to Taru Mawella. Every single detail is just perfect! The food is so good!!!! The garden, the flowers the huge trees are unbelievable! Congratulation to Heshan, the manager, for his kindness and smile. Congratulation to all the staff because each one of you are doing a great job for caring so well of this place and make it a small paradise. Thank you! This was for sure one of the best moment that we had in Sri Lanka.

Miinukset: Nothing!

Plussat: excellent service,great locations

Miinukset: The sand fly form the beach

Plussat: Friendly staff Great quiet beach Atmosphere Cleanliness Beauty of the villa Great staying!

Miinukset: Big waves at the new year seasons

Plussat: The staff and the location

Miinukset: A spa on the premises

Miinukset: Small property size No activity choice (except lying on beach with sun)

Plussat: We stayed in the beautiful 2 bedroom villa which was very luxurious and lovely. Great spaces all around to chill out, whether on the veranda, garden or by the pool. The food was delicious

Miinukset: It is quite quiet, which is great if you want a secluded break but not many other restaurants close by. It is however only a 15 minute Tuk Tuk from hirikitya which has lots of restaurants and a relaxed surfer vibe

Plussat: The property was beyond our expectations! we had an amazing time in Taru Villa and will definitely go back. The place was simply beautiful, clean, and the service was beyond excellent! specifically sanjeeva and sujeeva made it feel more than a five star hotel stay! And the food was fantastic! Better than any other place we ate at in Sri Lanka. The owners really know what it takes to make a guest happy. Thank you Taru for making our trip to Sri Lanka one for the books

Plussat: Such a lovely place! We spent one night over here and were totally satisfied! The food was amazing, room was tidy and spacious, hotel staff is so friendly and ready to help you with anything you need! I'd recommend this hotel if you're looking for something really nice and quite to relax from the city noise.

Plussat: Great deal! Thanks to owners for great holiday. Strongly recommend this hotel! Desert beaches with no people around.

Plussat: I really like this hotel. I'd like to stay there. Advise you this hotel. Clean and cozy. I had a great time at the hotel. The view from the windows is beautiful. The administration is very polite and smiling.

Plussat: Awesome place! Very quite. Chef Danil cook very delicious dishes. Room is very clean and spacious. Beautiful beach without beach boys. Super relax. Thanks to Ilia and Anna for great accommodation.

Plussat: It was excellent experience! Thanks to Anna! We will come back to this place for sure! Delicious food, beautiful beach, tranquility atmosphere. Wow!

Plussat: The locations is just excellent. Super quiet! Great nature around. The hotel itself is super nice and has a beautiful plants in it. The pools are perfect and so are the rooms. Everyone was so nice to us. And breakfast was one of the best we've had on our whole trip. Also you can ask about laundry service here. Was helpful for us. Special thanks to Anna for super accomodation!

Plussat: Nice place, quite new, staff has provided great service. Thanks!

Plussat: A nice hotel in a quiet place located out of the city. Room was clean and well decorated, the bed was very comfy. Although the ocean was very rough during our stay, we enjoyed the on-site pool which is awesome!

Plussat: One of the best places we have stayed during our vacation in Sri Lanka. Hotel is quite new and well maintained. The room is spacious and clean. Food was very delicious, thanks to chef! Since the hotel is located out of the town, the area is very quiet and relaxing. The beach was amazingly empty, so we could enjoy our romantic walks in full and nobody disturbed us. Stuff is very friendly and helpful. Will definitely come back!

Plussat: Very nice hotel! Friendly staff. Excellent food. And desert beach, nobody around, super! Relaxation.

Plussat: There is nothing we did not like about this place. The staff is extremely helpful, friendly and attentive. Our room had a breathtaking view over the garden beach area. The room itself is light, spacious and clean. The beach is one of the most tranquil places we have ever seen, there is hardly anyone there, it is clean, wide and bordered by tall coconut trees - it is perfect for long walks. Even though it is a very quiet place, there is still a lot to do, whether it is nature or culture you want to experience, so complete relaxation and activity can be very well mixed there. You can always ask the manager to help you organize day trips or tours. Both breakfast and dinner were delicious and varied, they have a great selection of drinks as well. The property is very well maintained and designed with care.

Plussat: Aamupala oli erinomainen. Huone oli todella iso ja siisti. Suihku oli erinomainen. Ranta oli upea, siisti ja lähes tyhjä - oma rauha. Hyvä uima-allas, mukavia oleskelu alueita ja aurinkotuoleja. Mahtava paikka rentoutumiseen!

Miinukset: Ruoka oli melko kallista ja taso vaihteli.

Plussat: Absolutely a beautiful place to relax at the beach. We had a wonderful stay. The staff was very helpful. Breakfast and dinner right at the beach. A paradise. For us the best stay in Sri Lanka.

Plussat: The staff was super kind. They do everything for us, a lot of things what wasn’t their tasks. For example: they helped us to plan our trip in Sri Lanka and also you can rent a scooter by them etc. You can’t find better place to stay.

Miinukset: Nothing. Maybe they should put a net on the windows so guests could open it.

Plussat: Loved it here - very peaceful on an empty beach. Enjoyable even in the rain :) faultless!

Plussat: Well built all rooms excellent views. Food was great. Alexander manager is such a good professional man. He looked after us like family or a friend!

Miinukset: Infront of hotel ocean a bit rough but near by good swimming. Pool is great and super clean.

Plussat: The location is spectacular. The hotel is beautifully designed, stylish and comfortable, the architect paid attention to details and they did not cut corners or go cheap. The management is attentive and very hands on. I highly recommend it and will definitely return.

Plussat: Fantastic find, beautiful location, peaceful, well worth the drive up local roads to get to this hidden gem. Great breakfasts too.

Plussat: Relaxed atmosphere, friendly staff, very clean rooms with nice view to the ocean. Food though a little less spicy than elsewhere in Sri Lanka. Endless beaches.

Miinukset: Unfortunately the ocean was too rough for a safe swim. But this is something we knew it could happen. So, no big deal.

Plussat: During construction of Seven Turtles in 2013, there were seven sea turtles that visited the beach. And that's where it gets its name. The property is at the end of the world. It is right on the sea side, and you will have the beach (mostly) to yourselves. We loved the design. The architect spent a couple of years in Japan, and it shows, the property is elegant and thoughtfully made. The staff is very warm. During our stay, Kirill and Alexander were very helpful. They had some great recommendations about things to do, in and around Tangalle. Outside: Beautiful fountains and gardens that are well maintained. Lounging areas away from the sea with chairs, books, and hammocks, next to the pool, and on the beach - with deck chairs and pool side loungers. They have a sea side bar. At night we would sit at the beach and look at the night sky strewn with stars. We had the beach to ourselves. If you are lucky you may spot some dolphins or whales. The pool is magnificent, we spent hours there. The sea is a bit rough. Rooms: Comfortable rooms, with all modern amenities - AC, Fridge, Safe, and Hot Water, and depending on your choice, a view of the sea or the garden.. Location: It is a little away from the city. That gives you privacy. You can get bicycles from them to explore the nearby beaches, or rent scooters to go into town. Tuk Tuk is also available. Food: Food selection is very good. You eat by the beach. We enjoyed our meals. They have both local and continental food. Ask for kitchen timings. Food is made fresh, so you need to order before hand.

Plussat: The friendly and helpfull staff, The food, Peaceful and quiet place

Plussat: Fantastic location right on the beach. Secluded relaxed and just what we wanted to unwind. Lovely meals served with a smile. A real good find!

Miinukset: Not much not to like about this place.

Plussat: Nice huts by the beach. Good pool and food. Staff very friendly

Miinukset: Not much. It is not a hi-lux place but great value, and relaxing.

Plussat: Staff were friendly. The beach is nice.

Miinukset: Location is very isolated down a long bumpy dirt track. There is nothing around, so when it rains there is nothing to do. Pool was dirty with worms. The handrail leading into the pool was loose and unsafe. Food selection was very minimal and with nothing near by so you're stuck. Food service ends at 8 and you have to pre order before 5 if you want to eat anything that isn't pasta. Shower was cold with no hot water. Room wasn't cleaned/towels not replaced. First room we were given the door wouldn't lock and we were asked if we actually needed a locking door... Partial sea view from the room, however little privacy anyway so you have to close the curtains. No atmosphere. Didn't live up to expectations which was a shame as we were really looking forward to this part of our trip. Booked for 4 nights but left after 2.

Plussat: Loistava pieni keidas kaiken vuorilla rehkimisen jälkeen! Henkilökunta +10. Paikka on tosiaan rauhallinen, ei mitään äksöniä. Meilöä juuri hyvä akkujen lataukseen. Ja huoneet oli isoja ja kauniita!

Plussat: Vartija oli mukava ja ystävällinen. Oli myös kivaa kun sai lainata polkupyöriä ilmaiseksi. Allasalue oli ihan kiva.

Miinukset: Hotellille tullessa sisäänkirjautuminen kesti ja kesti ja en edes tiedä mitä odottelimme siinä. Asiakaspalvelussa parantamisen varaa. Todella hidasta palvelua. Sänky oli epämukava ja selkä oli joka kerta kipeä aamulla. Aamupalalla kun ruoka oli tosi tulista (tilasimme itse tulista) ja suussa poltti, menin tarjoilijan luo, että tarvitsemme vettä nyt, kun polttaa suussa, niin tarjoilija lupasi tuoda sen pöytään. Hän kuitenkin meni ensin keittiöön tekemään jotain, vaikka olisi voinut antaa minulle suoraan edessä olevasta jääkaapista sen veden mukaan. Menin toistamiseen pyytämään/ostamaan sitä vettä, että nyt tarvitsee heti, niin tarjoilijalla ei vieläkään ollut mitään kiirettä tuomaan sitä. Kannataa katsoa mihin astuu hotellialueella, sillä kolmen päivän vierailumme aikana koiranjätöstä ei siivottu pois, vaikka aluetta muuten haravoitiin. Näimme myös käärmeen huoneemme edustalla. Uloskirjautuminen kesti joku parikymmentä minuuttia ainakin, en taaskaan tiedä missä ja mikä taas kesti. Huonelasku kannattaa tarkistaa tarkasti, sillä meiltä oli yritetty periä ruoka, mitä emme olleet syöneet ja ruokien hinnatkin oli laskussa erit, mitä listassa. Ihmettelimme miksi huonettamme ei ole siivottu ja menimme kysymään asiasta, niin meille sanottiin, että, kun ette ole laittanut kylttiä oveen, että "make up this room", niin huonetta ei siivota ja se on teidän vika. Sanoimme, että sisäänkirjautumisen yhteydessä ei asiasta mainittu mitään, niin työntekijä vain pyöritteli silmiä ja oli silmiin nähden erittäin tympääntynyt meihin. Uima-altaan nurkissa oli paljon veden alla uivia hyönteisiä.

Plussat: Lanka Beach Bungalows undoubtedly was the best stay we had in Sri Lanka - wonderful accommodation, fabulous staff, the best pool ever and a lovely beach. A special thanks to the staff who made the stay so memorable - so friendly and attentive.

Miinukset: The road to the hotel is challenging - more so if it’s rained. Of course not the resorts responsibility but something to be aware of...

Plussat: Hans has thought of everything when he planned the bungalows at Lanka Beach. The most comfortable four poster beds with luxurious white soft cotton sheets and a mosquito net. Air conditioning as well as a ceiling fan not only in the room but also on the spacious verandah where we could seek shelter from the odd shower on a comfortable double recliner or at the little outdoor table. Great bathroom with lots of space to put things, also a drying rack. Good storage in the room and a safe. The staff were friendly and looked after us very well. The infinity swimming pool is gorgeous and so refreshing, the grounds well looked after and full of tropical flowering trees and shrubs. The beach is simply beautiful in its wildness. The food was great and fresh seafood was offered as well as traditional Sri Lankan curry and rice. Turtle watch is only a short tuktuk ride away. The WiFi was the best we had in all of Sri Lanka. We didn’t want to leave and hope we can come back here one day!

Plussat: great location, beautiful beach, friendly staff, tasty food, breakfast selection was good, free bikes was a bonus, room was lovely with ocean views from balcony, pool was refreshing

Miinukset: nothing

Plussat: Staff were very attentive which we liked Hot water yay Air con and fan yay

Miinukset: Bit far from main city like 20-30 mins

Plussat: Beautiful clean spacious room great staff remote location

Miinukset: We were he only people there as it was off season

Plussat: Had a lovely time here. Staff were the highlight as always in Sri Lanka. Facilities fantastic, food and beer reasonably priced and very nice. Bang on the beach and a fantastic swimming pool. Had an evening meal at The Fishermens Lodge 5 minute walk away, also thoroughly recommend. Had bikes FOC to use which was great even if the seats did feel like they were made of concrete!

Miinukset: Hospitality could have been better.

Plussat: It is the BEST place to stay I've seen in all of Sri Lanka - both homey/cosy and boutique/with great architecture. Part of the staff is family, so I guess this also helps to maintain the feeling of home. Food is very, very good and the beach is a gem - very secluded (almost private), clean, with awesome waves (good for swimming), and real working people going into the ocean to fish at 4am. AMAZING EXPERIENCE for people to want to get away from it all and really relax. 9.9/10.

Miinukset: Not bad things, but rather something to take into account before going: 1. Free breakfast is great but basic - eggs, toast, some fruit and coffee - it's not a breakfast bar. You need to pre-order lunch and dinner in the morning at a separate cost to get the best food experience. Budget ~15 USD/day for the two meals with beer - will be more than enough. 2. This is a beach to relax. Look elsewhere for jet skis, scuba diving, etc.

Plussat: Incredibly good value for money, Isana is a real gem.

Miinukset: nothing!

Plussat: Really nice and kind staff, especially the "older" waiter

Plussat: Everything was just perfect, so far the best hotel, bed, beach, food in Sri Lanka! Hope to come back one day! Thank you so much!

Plussat: Best stay in Sri Lanka. Superb japanese inspired hotel with the beach as your backyard. Great breakfast and amazing staff. Loved it.

Plussat: Isana is located right on the beach, so our room had an ocean view, balcony with a hammock and our shower had an open ocean view. The staff were amazing, friendly, helpful and we always got individual attention. I was so impressed by the food, I only had Sri Lankan dishes but they were all tasty and flavourful. The house was large, beautiful, peaceful with a large hammock in the garden and lots of deck chairs for relaxing. It’s a quiet beach so at times we had the beach all to ourselves. Would def recommend this to anyone looking for a peaceful ocean front get away

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: The location is amazing for a complete switch off! Amazing, almost private beaches, one after another. The house itself is really nice and spacious. And super clean and all the staff is sooooo nice! I had a really nice room upstairs with a balcony and a huuuge bed. Oh and a hammock!!

Miinukset: I would work a bit on the menu. Me, personally, I would prefer more local dishes in the menu. Coconut roti was amazing, though!! Thank you for that!

Plussat: Amazing room with sea view Clean and very confortable Good breakfast I had a fish barbecue one night and it was really good Possibility to rent a scooter for 1500rps a day Very friendly staff!

Miinukset: Location a bit far from city centre

Plussat: One piece of heaven! The beach house is on a breathtaking empty beach, with an amazing garden. We stayed in room 3 and had a great terrace and slept with the sound of the waves. Staff is very nice, breakfast and dinner were very good.

Plussat: The main draw card of this property is the beautiful stretch of beach at the end of the garden. We saw less than 10 people every day - it’s practically deserted and private. Clean white sand, clear warm water, although the current is quite strong. Rooms are spacious and clean, albeit a little dark, but the little outdoor balcony with your own hammock more than made up for it. Good water pressure in the shower, courteous and helpful staff. Breakfast was a little basic for a room at this price category, but overall quality of food was decent.

Miinukset: Would’ve loved to have some insect spray in the room. Given the design of the room (there are little holes for ventilation in the doors), there is no way to keep mosquitoes out so we were eaten alive despite the netting over the bed. Wifi signal strength from our room was just okay. You pay a price for having such a long stretch of beach pretty much all to yourself - there is nothing that is within walking distance. Tangalle itself is about 10 minutes away by tuk tuk. You can rent a scooter from the guest house for 1500 rupees/day which i would recommend - makes it easier for seeing the local sights (handy tip - don’t go to the reputed 2nd biggest blowhole in the world that is nearby - it’s probably the second biggest disappointment in the world). Given it’s remoteness, for those who don’t want to eat 3 meals a day at the guest house, there is a small shack on the beach about 30m away called Muthu’s - they do a killer grilled fish for a killer price.

Plussat: Awsome accomodation. Beach for ourselves! They also lent us bodyboards for free and arranged all the transport around. Very friendly and helpful staff!

Plussat: Great breakfast

Miinukset: Everything ok

Plussat: Beautiful location, great breakfast, peaceful and great for a relaxing, secluded getaway

Miinukset: We didn't realize you couldn't swim here, as the sea is too rough. The Jacuzzi was also not working.

Plussat: Superior chalet was beautiful, independent and well equipped. Lovely terrace where we were brought breakfast and dinner. Lots of care and attention from staff. Perfect location on beautiful beach near a good spot for swimming and a couple of good restaurants on the beach.

Miinukset: No restaurant or communal area and the WiFi was a little weak in the room.

Plussat: The staff welcomed us with a fresh juice. Our cabana was super clean and comfy, good mosquito net and even a jacuzzi! Sri Lankan breakfast is served on the terrace with a beautiful view on the sea. The best part is the private beach - truly amazing place to relax. You can have dinner in the resort or a resort next door. Try to find sea turtles on the beach at night, go kayaking (available in resort) or walk around the little paths in the area. Great place for a few relaxing days on the beach!

Miinukset: Sea is a little rough for swimming but there are some places nearby for bathing in the sea.

Plussat: The service and location was amazing!! Highly recommend.

Plussat: Beautiful place, great host, good price. Exceptional experience.

Miinukset: The wifi didn't really work (not that you'll need it in such paradise).

Plussat: Beautiful and quiet beach. Nice bungalow. Great breakfast, everytime a different very good Sri Lankan breakfast. Osanka is a great host.

Plussat: Location is fantastic and the chalet was very comfortable. Nice staff and food. Turtle beach!

Miinukset: Could not swim due to high waves on the beach nearby, which was the only disadvantage

Plussat: A very nice, quiet, clean place to stay. A true nature experience. The manager Asanka and his two colleagues were extremely friendly and always helpful. The breakfast was delicious and a lot. We always got Sri Lanka breakfast. We were very satisfied.

Plussat: It was a beautiful location, secluded beach. Perfect for relaxing and getting away from it all. Definitely for people who enjoy a quiet break from city life. Just incredible sunrises and sunsets. The friendly and homely welcome was excellent . Seafood dinners were excellent (thank you Mahesh) and the breakfasts were filling and tasty. Best pol sambol on the island! Rooms are private, nice bathrooms, clean and well maintained. Beds are spacious and comfortable.Asanka and Pramith are true hosts.

Plussat: Very friendly and welcoming staff. We visited during the Sri Lankan New Year days, so some things were a bit scetchy, e.g. the pool had not been cleaned but this was explained and therefore not an issue. Anyway with two lovely beaches to choose from close-by we did not need the pool, really. Located between the two and close to harbour and mainstreet too, yet very quiet. Awoken by sounds of peacocks in the morning. Breakfast was lovely - very friendly service. The staff was always very helpful in every way. Would definitely stay again.

Miinukset: Not a very good WiFi at least in our room

Plussat: Loved so much about this place. Friendly and helpful staff. Great location. So close to the beach but quiet. Our room looked fairly new and was a pleasure to stay in. Comfortable beds and it was private.

Miinukset: The pool could do with more regular cleaning. It looked murky. We did see staff cleaning this as we were leaving but we were unable to use during our stay. The bathroom was stuffy and had an odor.

Plussat: Good villa with pool and friendly staff. Enjoyed the stay and location.

Plussat: Very conveniently located just off Mirissa beach, Colonial Villa is a great place to enjoy Mirissa and the surrounding area.

Miinukset: Nothing at all - it was great

Plussat: Breakfast, welcoming staff

Miinukset: Lack of window, concrete floor, bathroom weird concept

Plussat: Nice room. Staff very kind and helpful

Miinukset: Dirty pool Very dull restaurant Breakfast could be better

Plussat: Good water pressure

Miinukset: Location is not as good as led to believe. About 10 minute walk to beach via a filthy jungle track. Swimming pool water level was about 40mm below gutter meaning it was not filtering and had scum floating on top. No TV no phone in room bed was matteress on a concrete slab. Bathroom was adjoining with only mosquito mesh over shower for roof. View from left side of bed is the back of a wardrobe and fridge motor.

Plussat: Hyvä palvelu, kiva allas, ranta lähellä

Miinukset: Pihakalusteet voisi olla kivemmat. Lisää aurinkotuoleja

Plussat: The staff was great - super helpful and very friendly. It‘s location is also great - close to the beach at Mirissa but also near the whale watching at Weligama too.

Plussat: The staff were lovely at this hotel. We were made to feel so welcome and actually extended our stay by a further 2 days. Nice rooms with air con/ fridge and modern bathrooms. Nice pool with a snack bar also. Close enough walk to the beach and restaurants and far enough away to chill in the pool and watch the chipmunks running around. The breakfast was lovely each morning, mix of continental and Sri Lankan- missing the hoppers and sambol! We will return for sure

Miinukset: Nothing - all lovely and had a true Sri Lankan atmosphere.

Plussat: Everything was perfect! Beautiful room, nice pool, very tasty and fresh breakfast, perfect location. Wonderful owners!!! We recommend this place and definitely come back in the future!

Plussat: Erinomainen sijainti vain muutaman minuutin kävelymatkan päässä rannalta. Family villa oli riittävän tilava kahdelle aikuiselle ja 12 + 13 v lapsille. Oikein ystävällinen emäntä, saatiin varattua hänen kauttaan taksi Negomboon hyvään hintaan.

Miinukset: Huoneessa oli torakoita useampana päivänä.

Plussat: Everything Was Perfect... Really Good Service with Friendly Staff. Highly recommended...

Plussat: Great location and facilities. Room was modern, clean and comfortable. Staff was pleasant.

Miinukset: Breakfast was a bit too European. Food lacked of spices.

Plussat: Siisti hotelli jossa uima-allas. Hotellin edessä oleva ranta ei sovellu uimiseen mutta kävelymatkan päässä on toinen hyvä ranta. Hotelllin vieressä myös kaksi hyvää ravintolaa. Kannattaa vuokrata hotellista skootteri tai kulkea tuk-tukilla muille rannoille.

Miinukset: Liikenteen melu hieman häiritsi mutta korvatulppien avulla siitäkin selvittiin.

Plussat: Swimming pool. Big rooms. Lovely views. Good laundry service. Friendly staff.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Clean rooms and nice shower

Plussat: Beatiful view, nice room, friendly staff. Clothes washing service.

Miinukset: Cockroach in bathroom.

Plussat: Avaruus ja siisteys oli hyvää luokkaa. Ystävällinen palvelu ja avuliaisuus.

Miinukset: Sijainti oli hieman haastava. Toki tuktukilla pääsi paikasta toiseen.

Plussat: Great view of the ocean fantastic to sleep with the sound of the waves. Great staff always willing to please. The best hone made pizza I have ever had. The pool a big bonus. Rooms a little dated but extremely clean. A small distance from town I think is a bonus away from backpacking district and a cheap tuk tuk ride into town. Really great restaurant on the ocean just across the road.

Plussat: Clean and comfortable,hotel manager was very lovely and helpful,she was more then happy to help with any questions you have.

Plussat: Great location. Funny little drive but fab views over the sea.

Miinukset: One noisy night. Loud music over the road from 11pm?

Plussat: The staff was very friendly and helpful. The view was really nice and the beach is just stunning!

Miinukset: We came off season and it felt like we were the only people there. It was a bit scary... There were mosquitoes in the room and no net.

Plussat: Friendly staff and the calm surrounding. Staff helped my dad and my new born with their food and other facilities. Was very kind and helpful in all the way.

Miinukset: Beach is across the main road and walking towards the beach from the place is not practical. But a nice sight to the room of the beach.

Plussat: Quaint little family-run homestay a few minutes from the better beaches in Tangalle. Great location not even 5 minutes walk from the bus station. Owner was very helpful and informed us of a direct bus to Udawalawe which everyone else had told us didn't exist (it's once a day at 9:20am for the record!)

Miinukset: The mosquito net impedes the bed space quite a lot so the queen size bed isn't as big as you'd expect

Plussat: Good location right next to the bus station in Tangalle, but still in a quiet street. Also walking distance next to very good restaurants and beaches. Damith was very pleasant person always ready to help. Breakfast was good and in good quantity. Room was basic but was very good value for money. we enjoyed our stayed there

Miinukset: Bathroom ceiling had spider webs so could be cleaned more

Plussat: We were only passing through Tangalle, but staying at Damith’s made us sad we didn’t plan a longer trip! The room was clean and dinner and breakfast were excellent. Absolutely the best place to stay while traveling on a budget. Damith even personally drove us to our next destination! Thank you again!

Plussat: The room is comfortable and the guesthouse is close to the Beach and the Bus station.

Miinukset: The kitchen is not shared

Plussat: Breakfast very good and abundant. Damith and his wife very helpful. Hotel only 10 minutes walking from the beaches and few meters from Tangalle bus station.

Miinukset: The room was very small and without terrace, although on Booking we had booked a room with terrace.

Plussat: The place is very well located : restaurants, beaches, bus station are very close to the hotel. It’s also very easy to rent scooters. The place is very comfortable, beds are kingsize and the bathroom is clean. Breakfast are tasty and delicious, you can also have dinner if you want (there are delicious too). The hosts are just lovely, very helpful and always smiling!

Plussat: Had a lovely stay here for three nights, couldn’t of asked for more. Damith and his wife were lovely and went out of their way to help. He helped me organise a trip to Udawalawe and kayaking in the nearby lagoon. Beds were comfy, breakfast was good and bedroom and bathroom was clean. Also, great central location, only 5 minute (maximum) walk to the bus station and nearby shops, but also 10 minute walk to the beach and a range of restaurants. Had a lovely stay in Tangalle and this homestay made it even better. I would 100% recommend to everyone and I hope to return one day. Thank you!

Plussat: Hospitality and Service. Ready to help nature

Miinukset: Not applicable.

Plussat: Very good value for money! The Homestay is located near to the main road and near to the beach. The breakfast was good and they are very friendly owner who helped in every situation

Miinukset: sometimes bad wifi signal

Plussat: Good location. Big pool

Miinukset: The waiter had proposed cheese omelete, but "forgot" to inform, that It is not included in breakferst cost. It is not a big expenses for me, but I don't like this style.

Plussat: Great location, beach within 1 minute walk of the cabana. The cabana and the bed was very comfy! People where very friendly and the pool is realy amazing. The ambiance and the quality of the food in the restaurant is realy good! The prices of the menu are quiete expensive compared to other restaurants in sri lanka. I realy enjoyed my stay and would definetely come back!

Miinukset: The menu card of the pool restaurant was not very extensive. The italian dish was very small portion for the price. The taste and quality was great! The beach is quiete small and surrounded by rocks. In september the waves where quiete high and strong stream. Not very safe for swimming

Plussat: We enjoyed the fact that it was quiet and the cabanas were placed well apart giving enough privacy. It felt like you were in a jungle by the sea. Direct beach access was truly convenient. Everything about this place was just too great for a 3-star property. We are definitely going back there. I would highly recommend this place for families with children too.

Miinukset: Some Sausage / Bacon would have been good for the Western breakfast. My Husband enjoyed his Sri Lankan breakfast very much. Also, tea/ coffee in-room would have been very helpful.

Plussat: Hotelli oli todella ihana. Todellinen paratiisi! Yövyimme hotellissa 4 yötä ja paikassa olisi viihtynyt pidempäänkin. Ranta oli todella upea ja hiljainen - ainakin tähän vuodenaikaan. Suosittelen paikkaa kaikille :)

Plussat: It's the 2nd time we've stayed there and it was exactly what we were hoping for and wanted. Relaxed, chilled out and perfect little cabana in a great setting. Very friendly and helpful staff and great food and beers!

Plussat: Quiet and beautiful

Miinukset: Loved it all

Plussat: The cabana is pretty nice, we had it 25 mt for a good beach. The swimming pool is nice and the bar close to it is fine.

Miinukset: Resturant Is just basic level, however the breakfast is ok. The light in the night is limited and there is no protection from the coconut falling. There are several wild dogs around as all Sri Lanka. Nice dogs actually and not danger but looking for attention and this turn to undesired visit in the private space. A better fence would help. Restaurant/bar on the beach are not best deal.

Plussat: Such a nice and quiet place to relax, we didn't even leave the hotel area for our whole stay of five nights, because everything you need is right there. Two nice restaurants, a very nice pool area and a beautiful beach. The cabins are looking very good and have generous sizes. The villas also looked great from the outside. One of the coolest things: it's like a wildlife park. We have seen peacocks, bunnies, one big lizard and heard many exotic birds.

Miinukset: Nothing to complain about.

Miinukset: Massage room is not very confortable and clean

Plussat: I booked a room for the cabin, however when we arrived there we found that the cabin was too open and didn't match the photos very much (in terms of decoration and maintenance). So we asked for an upgrade to the village rooms and they easily did us that favor! The room was super spacious, very clean and comfortable! The pool is very nice, big and clean and the beach is right in front of the rooms.

Miinukset: The cabins could take some maintenance (but the Villa rooms are the best!)

Plussat: Everything just perfect. Fantastic huge territory place in jungle and on the beach with great view, sand and many restaurants. Very high service, big desinged rooms, air condition. Very good restaurant with delicious food and very kind service. We are staying for 7 days and even once didn't go out from the hotel.

Miinukset: Nothing

Plussat: Nice location and good food with friendly staff

Miinukset: AC not the best because of so much air leak around doors. 2 small blankets instead of one big that would cover the whole bed... why...

Plussat: Everything! Perfect communication!

Miinukset: Nothing at all

Plussat: Good location, 2 minutes to the beach. Provided with a good breakfast, eggs, toast, fresh juice and tea and coffee Hosts were very friendly and helpful and gave good advice on the surrounding area. The host also met us in his Tuk tuk at the bus station and took us to the property, which was nice. Property is 2 minutes into the main town and a small grocery shop a minute away.

Miinukset: The water supply was a bit hit and miss and no hot water (weather is very hot so not too much of a problem), Host offered and allowed us to use another bathroom on the ground floor.

Plussat: The rooms are new.

Miinukset: Sri Lankan breakfast has to be ordered one day before.

Plussat: The room was very comfortable, the owner was very helpful, and gave us a wonderful experience. We will came back. Thank you very much

Plussat: Lady was really lovely she let me stay 2 extra nights. Room was nice

Miinukset: Wifi was sometimes abit weak but most of time it worked

Plussat: AC room, close to the beach and nice restaurants.

Miinukset: Basic services missing : no hot water at the shower, no sheets at the bed. Everything looked much older than the pictures at booking. The room was extremely humid, almost impossible for me to breathe without the AC on. After being in many different rooms in Sri Lanka, I consider this is completely overpriced.

Plussat: Well sized bedroom with private bathroom at the property of a lovely family. The room has a ceiling fan and a mosquito net. There is no hot water in the shower but as it's so warm in Tangalle you don't really miss it :)

Miinukset: Bring your own locker if you want to lock your room when you are outside. I was not provided toilet paper and the night when I wanted to ask for some everybody seemed to be sleeping...

Plussat: The room was very comfortable, new and clean. It was really nice to have a private area in front of the room. It's few minutes walk to the beach and the restaurants. We can totally recommend this place.

Miinukset: There were no wifi connection in our room (problem almost everywhere in Sri Lanka)

Plussat: Nice and quite comfortable rooms, balcony with chairs in the upper rooms, few minutes to the beach! One of a few places in Srí Lanka where the wifi is actually working! Owner and his mother are both very nice and helpful. We even got tasty sandwiches instead of breakfast when we needed to leave early.

Miinukset: There could be some clothes hangers in the room, maybe a chair or small closet. Also could be a little more cleaner from spider nets and so, but nothing crucial.

Plussat: Fabulous beach, friendly staff and great value for money. Would recommend the sea view deluxe rooms

Miinukset: Initially we had a standard room which was a little basic - we upgraded & the room we were given is probably one of the nicest rooms I've ever stayed in

Plussat: Beachfront location

Miinukset: Air conditioner in the room blew directly onto the bed. Too strong even on low. Would have been better positioned elsewhere within the room.

Plussat: Very nice pool area and located right on the beach. The restaurant is right on the beach which is lovely. The staff at the restaurant were very friendly and helpful.

Miinukset: The wifi is only available in public areas and even here it seemed to drop out a lot. There is no wifi available in rooms.

Plussat: Palvelu oli hyvää ja huoneet vastasivat kuvia.

Miinukset: Aamupala oli heikkolaatuinen ja hotellin ranta-alue oli muihin majoituspaikkoihin nähden huolimattomasti toteutettu.

Plussat: The location is amazing, by the most beautiful, endless beaches and wonderful lagoon. The pool is peaceful and there's plenty of space to chill. The restaurant offered good choice and fair value given that there were few outside options. Peaceful location within a 10 min tuk tuk ride from tangalle.

Miinukset: We were given rooms opposite reception within the car park area, which wasn't what we expected. I suspect they weren't often used as the room was a little musty at first and there were a lot of mosquitos initially, presumably from the drain as we didn't have issues after the first night.

Plussat: Location feels like you’re in a jungle.

Miinukset: Ants can go inside your room so it woke us up early in the morning.

Plussat: The pool was fantastic, the staff were very nice, we were able to rent a motor scooter which made seeing the sights very good. Good AC but the room is a bit dark and lighting is not bright enough, but we would recommend this property as we enjoyed a quiet night's stay and it is located right on the beach.

Miinukset: Brighter lighting in the room & a chair for the desk, these are suggestions not a complaint.

Plussat: Calmness of the place

Miinukset: Hot water wasn't that hot

Plussat: Nice guy at reception who showed us around the place; beach location with pleasant restaurant; good price

Miinukset: Standard room was very dark (but had at least wifi as being next to the Lobby)

Plussat: Location. Right on the beach , great swimming pool and cheap food.

Plussat: This has been a real highlight of our trip. Service was impeccable and the owner gave us lots of excellent recommendations and tips of both activities and restaurants. Excellent beaches within a 4 minute walk in either direction - one for snorkelling and the other for an experience of a breathtakingly beautiful beach. The view was spectacular from everywhere in the property and the rooms were really comfortable. Would definitely look to return.

Miinukset: Absolutely nothing.

Plussat: Everything- staff were brilliant and the view amazing

Plussat: The view was resonable

Miinukset: This hotel does not have any ammenties .... food is not available through out the day or evening unless ordered 24 hours In advance ... no alcohol is available and that is not advised on website .... the fans do not work there is no fridge and the water pressure does not work the internet does not work and the walk to the beach requires great fitness in the heat .... the staff are totally unhelpful and insects will eat you alive and your underwear. No swimming pool nothing here for the price

Plussat: The view the location was amazing

Miinukset: The extra charge for breakfast and the lack of choice

Plussat: Excellent place . Great accommodation, location, food . Aslam and all the staff were so helpful. Would love to return and would definitely recommend.

Plussat: Lovely peaceful place to stay, very close to silent beach and a bay for swimming - great local fish restaurants nearby too

Plussat: Amazing view from the room Nice property with a fellow peacock in the garden Welcoming staff Great location in-between two beautiful beaches (in a walking distance)

Miinukset: Despite asking, the room was not tidy during our 3-day stay as it should be expected from this price range accommodation. Food is not good value for money (ie breakfast).Go having a breakfast at Fisherman beach ! (;

Plussat: Fantastic view, friendly helpful staff. Surrounded by nature ie beaches, wildlife. Very relaxing and private.

Miinukset: Restricted swimming in beaches, noisy fans,weak internet. We visited during New Year celebrations so most family run restaurants were closed.

Plussat: Everything was great!! The style of the hotel is like a traditional design beach house. All super clean with a nice fresh smell, breathtaking view of the sea from balcony, lots of privacy and space in the room. The location is perfect, only 2-min walk from the nicest Sri Lankan beach called Silent beach. The hotel staff are nice and help you organise different activities, including yoga (they have a dedicated open space room at the hotel balcony with a sea view), sea turtle watching, cookery class, etc. Highly recommended and looking forward to come back again.

Miinukset: Nothing!!! Everything was just amazing.

Plussat: Amaaazing view on the ocean and the coast. The beaches nearby are beautiful and just 5mn walking. Easy going staff, various options of activities (yoga, surf, etc)

Miinukset: Simple breakfast that was charged 4$ could be included in the room and not charged extra... No food nor drinks available easily in the hotel, only with anticipation.

Plussat: The Coppenrath house has an incredible atmosphere and an amazing location. Falling asleep to the soundof the waves and waking up to a beautiful view of the ocean is the experience i enjoyed most about the Coppenrath house. The owner is extremely kind I enjoyed many conversations with him!! The area has tons of delicious restaurants, less then 500 meters in all directions!! Easily the best Hostel on the southeren coast of Sri Lanka!!

Plussat: Fantastic Location. great for backpackers travelling in the south

Miinukset: I am sorry say this but not very comfortable beds, foam mattress on wooden boards that didn't fit the bed properly. room not cleaned, sheets and towels not changed at all during six day stay. Shower door that didn't t close, very odd designed bathroom on a platform if the floors got wet from the shower, the floor was then very slippery. Wifi intermittent downstairs, didn't work at all in my room, small breakfast that was extra, for the price of the room not very good value.

Plussat: Breakfast was delicious, people working there super friendly. Beach on 10 meter walking

Plussat: Yoga everyday. Great location. AC on the room was a big + for us. You have to try the porridge for breakfast!!

Plussat: If you travel as a low budget, young traveller, I think it is a good place. The staff speaks good English. The breakfast (extra paid) was tasty. The AC was working perfectly.

Miinukset: There is a pub / restaurant downstairs the hostel. They put very loud and annoying (club style) music, so we couldn't enjoy our evenings there. The shower door was broken and we hardly could close / open it. We also used a laundry service there, I strongly dont recommend it.

Plussat: Best location, and also frienly staff

Plussat: What we booked we did not get but the owner did give us a free meal because we did not get why we booked

Miinukset: The room was very dark

Plussat: Breakfast and room very good. Very nice, helpfull and friendly owner family. I felt like home.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: I stayed in a dorm and it was very nice and clean. Great view and great rooftop yoga area. There were hardly any guests when I stayed there as it’s off season but I am sure it has a nice vibe and easy to meet other people. High standard for a hostel and a nice owner.

Miinukset: The kitchen wasn’t very clean, but they want to clean it now that the season starts soon again. There are many restaurants and bars close by along the beach so this is a good alternative.

Plussat: Everything is really nice at this wonderful resort. The manager Manju was so helpful and kind to us: at our daughter's 12th birthday he organized a delicious dinner with big fruity cake which our daughter will never forget! He also help us with all the information we needed and organized our trip to Gaulle . The chef prepared for our trip a delicious packet lunch: we felt really spoiled and it was so nice!! WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND THIS PLACE! DO NOT MISS IT!!

Plussat: The view on the pacific ocean The beaches near the hotel even though waves were massive and swimming was dangerous. Garden of the site Safe site

Miinukset: We rent a chalet an was expecting 2 independent rooms but it was not the case. The site is a bit outdated (decoration look old style) and need a bit of maintenance Despite the site is in a wonderful environment it is a bit far form Tangalle and you need a tuk tuk to reach the village

Miinukset: My friends and I spent a week in this hotel in January 2019. I would like to provide you with a short objective description of this hotel. Let me start with the positives. The hotel has a really nice location - it is located in a very nice garden and it has a direct pathway to a really beautiful beach. That would be all the positives. The hotel rooms are very basic (comparing to the price you have to pay for the room), but you can figure it out when you review photos of the rooms. The breakfast is very poor and the hotel restaurant is overpriced. This was one of the reasons we had dinners outside of the hotel. After reading previous reviews of the hotel restaurant we did not even want to try the hotel food. But what really made our stay in this hotel miserable was the hotel management staff. I’m travelling for business and holidays for nearly 20 years and I have never encountered such attitude. They were arrogant, not friendly, and treating us with superiority, as we were there for them and not they to help us. I’m talking specifically about 2 upper management staff, a man from Sri Lanka, and a woman from Germany. There was another management staff member (a man from Italy, I guess) who helped us to resolve some burning issues we had. This was actually the only person from upper management who tried to fix issues without further escalations to booking.com. It is important to note that other staff of the hotel was very friendly and helpful – my comments is purely regarding the upper management staff. One may think that the facilities are most important and staff is not going to spoil the holidays. I thought so too, up to last month. It’s true, it can spoil your entire holidays. So please do think twice before you book this hotel.

Plussat: Property was well situated...good beach...good chalet

Miinukset: The manager Mr Manjhu...declined to give me a check out bill whilst checking out.. Whilst checking in...they kept us waiting for 1hr..saying room not ready. They put chlorine in the pool whilst we were actually swimming in it...hows that possible i mean.. No towels in pools.. No hot water in chalet...which didn't bother us much but overall the manager and receptionist didn't give me the respect i deserve as a human being.. forget me being a client coming to spend money over there

Plussat: Amazing location by a beauiful, quiet beach. Nice pools. Spacious family rooms. Good breakfast. Free yoga twice a day.

Miinukset: Not many restaurants within walking distance

Plussat: Great beach, big area not fully build, 2 Pools.

Miinukset: Staff compared to our stays in Sri Lanka was't great)(except manager).

Plussat: Two pools, lots of space. Clean rooms and spread out resort. Beach sheets were great. Had snorkels to borrow for the day.

Miinukset: No blankets in rooms! Only sheets so you should bring bedding if you need it. Breakfast was okay; too many sweet cake type options. Do not do the yoga if you have any concept of what yoga is. It’s more like a series of weird, unlinked and potentially unsafe stretches from the 1900s. Better do it yourself if you need to practice!

Plussat: Accommodations was basic, but clean and spacious. Beach was undeveloped and felt almost exclusive to the resort. Restaurant food was good and we made regular use of the independent beach bar which served excellent seafood.

Plussat: The spot is wonderful really, the beach incredible, calm, powerful and the lodge peaceful in a heaven garden

Miinukset: We were alone in the hotel so it must be so great normaly to enjoy... There are 2 swimming pool with salt water from sea so it literally burn the kids' eyes. The washroom was broken so all the water came on the floor. The service was really poor, simple breakfast, horrible coffee and the food amazingly expensive. 200€ To feed us (3 person on 3 lunch only) and really it was not tasty or great. Sorry but the place is magic for the beach, the calm and the view, but ,accomodation really surevaluate ...

Plussat: Hotel is big, lot of space (during our stay hotel was not full so we have almost the feeling to be alone) beautiful garden, direct access to the beach, 2 swimming pools, you can rent a scooter directly on the hotel

Plussat: Right in the centre of town you don’t need to get a taxi anywhere. The staff are very friendly we had a banana smoothie on our arrival. The room was big and modern. Just outside our room was an area to chill with a great view of Tangalle. The breakfast was lovely too.

Miinukset: The shower was freezing. We only stayed two nights so this wasn’t a problem for us. After a busy day it was quite refreshing to have a cold shower.

Plussat: Easy access with ample parking space. The room was clean & the staff was super friendly Too. The stay was worth for the price paid.

Miinukset: Wish there was a mini bar in the room.

Plussat: The breakfast was good here. As well as the shower- but to be honest the place was poorly kept and unfinished.

Miinukset: There was a hole in our ceiling, the bathroom wasn’t clean really and the plasterboard was unfinished and the walls paper thin.

Plussat: Location was good...

Miinukset: No cleaniness.. room service not available on demand.. food was horrible plus they did not have any cook to give us good food.. flush broke down on 2nd day.. the rooms and bed were not cleaned properly.. overall not worth the money spent..

Plussat: Big room with good A-C and bed

Miinukset: Breakfast was great but there was no possibility for lunch or doner

Plussat: Really good location and excellent breakfast!

Plussat: Modern hotel with rooms in 3rd and 4th floor, many of them with view on the coast line and the palm trees in the surrounding. Quiet area. Beautiful Goyambokkan Beach about 5 minutes with tuk tuk. Big clean rooms, good bed, sufficiently big cupboard with hangers; very good and rich breakfast, personnel very friendly and helpful, big terrasse with view on the coast line for breakfast, drink water dispenser in the breakfast area

Miinukset: The WIFI was only working on the terrasse, no minibar in the room but water dispenser in the breakfast area

Plussat: Located in the centre of Tangalle, only a short walk to the beach and restaurants. Made to feel very welcome from the moment we arrived. Huge room that was very clean and comfortable.

Plussat: The view and the beds. Room was big and good service Fair price.

Miinukset: The place is under construction and the toilet is not fresh enough.

Plussat: Great view of Tangalle Tea brought to our room Bedrooms were very spacious Good shower

Miinukset: Hit and miss WiFi

Plussat: The envirnment and peaceful and comfertable rooms.

Miinukset: Nothing.

Plussat: Location is great.All the rooms are sea view rooms.

Miinukset: After 2230 nothing to eat inside the property.Even though there aren't any shop near to the hotel.

Plussat: Peaceful setting, food was great, room was nice.

Miinukset: Tupla laskutusta yrittivät esim. aamupalasta

Plussat: View was amazing with the pool

Miinukset: Room should be cleaned even more

Plussat: Location is nice and staff is friendly

Miinukset: Food can be improved. Not much of variations.

Plussat: The location and the pool The bed was very big and comfortable

Miinukset: The standard has gone down. The rooms were not maintained. Needed a lot of fixing. the staff were polite, helpful and kind but need more guidance on customer service and how they can enhance the customer experience.

Plussat: Food was great even though the hotel has limited collection. Staff was supportive.

Miinukset: The access road needs to be maintained well.

Plussat: The staff members, the front desk officer, Shahir , the Front office manager, the restaurant staff specially Kasun and the pool attendant were very friendly and accommodating. The room was clean and spacious. The pool was comparatively very clean and big. There was sufficient and elegant furniture and very good lighting. The beds were comfortable. The balcony overlooking the pool and the sea made us happy. The spacious lawn was maintained well. Our baggage was taken in and out on a trolley without any hazzle or delay. There were no hidden charges.

Miinukset: Some stretch of the road was very bad. My front buffer hit the ground hard in several places. The beach is dangerous as the sandy stretch is insignificantly small and the sea waves are very rough. The hand shower in the bathroom did not work. The hot water system gad its own timetable. The WIFI connection was very weak. The balcony is not usually cleaned (only on request is it done) The water in the bathroom and the shower at the pool smells and tastes bad and stagnant (I felt they recycle the water). The TV channels were very limited and the PEO TV system did not operate.

Plussat: Nice facilities with quite a big swimming pool

Miinukset: We arrived in the hotel, the baggage guy helped with my husband’s bag but did not help with mine (Is it a Sri Lankan custom to help a man but not a woman?). When he took us to our room, I realized it is not what we paid for - I asked him to get us to the room we booked and he told me there’s only one such a room and it is booked already. I told him I paid for a better room. He left and came back in 3mins and got us finally to the right room (suddenly it was free! Later on we found out there were more such rooms, so he was lying). Then we had dinner there, first they messed up our order, so they came and asked again what we want to but when they finally brough it, they brought just half of it! So we had to wait again. The food was ok. In the menu, there’s written the service and tax will be added to the final bill. Which is ok but then the waiter ASKED us even for more tip! Very rude, especially when it was all so messed up. At the check-in you have to sign you agree that the hotel is not responsible for any of your values you have in your room. That would be ok BUT the safe in the room is not attached to anything so you can easily take it and leave with it, plus we had the room at the ground floor and our balcony door was not possible to lock (even though it looks at first sight it is locked). All in all, it’s nice facility but there must be some major improvements.

Plussat: Everything was perfect. We got a great room with a perfect view. The staff is very friendly and helpful. It was my wife's birthday during the stay and the staff went out of their way to make her day special. Really thankful for them.
