Couldn’t have wished for a better place to stay! The morning of checkin, my partner put his back out and was as bed-bound for almost a week while it healed. We ended up extending our stay to almost two weeks to allow him time to get better and we’re so thankful we were checking into such a lovely hotel when this happened!
Our room (studio with terrace) was massive, the pictures don’t do it justice at all, beautiful big windows/doors with a lovely view of the garden letting in loads of light (but with big proper curtains for privacy if you want it) A comfy sofa and arm chair, dining table, kitchen with huge fridge and ample cooking facilities, lovely bathroom. The mattress was probably the best we’ve ever slept on in a hotel, so comfy, great pillows too. The AC was amazing and room very well insulated, we could turn the AC off all day while we were out and we’d come back to a room still cool. Plus the room was super clean and considering we were on the ground floor we were surprise we didn’t have any ants or bugs at all in the room. Lovely big pool that’s cleaned & maintained several times a week by a pool professional, big comfy, padded sun loungers. Tasty and varied breakfast menu - because we were there so long we tried everything on the menu and it’s all delicious and served fresh to order. Proper good French press coffee! Everyone who works there is happy and helpful and full of smiles and you can tell it’s a family run place. FREE water refills were a life saver! Two very cute cats owned by the family were also a joy to play with.
Some might fear the location is a little out of town but it’s a short 10 minute walk down the hill and you’re at the beach or in town, and there are a number of restaurants just around the corner from the hotel anyway as well as a small local shop selling snacks and drinks for a very reasonable price. Also, there are loads of options on Uber eats that deliver to the hotel if you want a chilled night in.

I've been to Unawatuna 4 times/years and that beautiful place changes for worse.
There is new oversized monster-hotel, water scooters, loud music, fireworks, higher prices...
In last 2 years 90% of tourists are Russians - some restaurants are only in russian.
Most likely, I am not going back.

Unawatuna beach has beautiful water and golden sand.
Unawatuna beach has beautiful water and golden sand. The part of the beach where I visited, the ocean gets quite deep very fast, and the waves seem to cary you in quite easily. I haven't seen any lifeguards or flags that would indicate the wave's condition, but local people were very kind to give information.
If you like hiking, the city has a nice trail to a beach called Jungle beach. Trough the same trail, you can pass by the Japanese Peace Pagoda, and if you are lucky you might see monkeys and lizards. The trail is more or less 40 min one way.
The restaurants from the hotels are very much on the coast, sometimes seems to close from the beach. But the food quality is good and affordable, and lots of these restaurants offer alcohol.
I stayed one day in Unawatuna and it felt enough time to discover what the city has to offer.

Its a great beach, much busier than it used to be.
Some great places to eat, generally inland a bit so do some research.
Perfect place if you want a 15min trip into Galle which is a must.
Nice and safe

I heard that this used to be a great beach.
I heard that this used to be a great beach. Unfortunately I do not think it is today. Very exploited and there are many beach places renting out sunbeds. They can get away with having (very) crappy toilets because there are new tourists every day, they do not need a good review.
Having dinner on the beach was a strange experience, started out good but then a large company came and occupied the space next to us, ordering champagne, oysters and lobsters like there was no tomorrow, and we were forgotten about.
There are plenty of other beaches in Sri Lanka that are much better.
The Guest House is located on a central street of Unawatuna village. To reach the nearest magnificent beach you have to walk just 5-7 minutes, it's really very close. The rooms are equipped with air conditioners. More expensive rooms have anti-mosquito curtains over the beds. The House is quiet, nothing disturbed our night rest much. It's perfect for staying a couple of nights on your journey around Sri Lanka. But we were satisfied with living there for 2 weeks, too.
the most relaxed place during my stay in Sri Lanka. Nor Lanka has the best of both Norway and Sri Lanka! perfect location for beach, best B&W beach restaurant, small supermarket. very comfortable rooms and relax areas.
I had wonderful day with tuktuk of Mr Lal. Really kind gentlemen. let the hotel arrange this guided tour.
Also loved the breakfast (good bread!)
Thank you again kind an warm familie for making me feel so welcome🙏
I stayed at Sea view Villa, close to Unawatuna beach and it was great. The hotel is right by the beach, so you get amazing views. The room was simple but comfy and had lots of space. The breakfast was delicious, and you can also have lunch and dinner there. The owners are super friendly and nice, which made my stay even better. I definitely recommend this hotel if you want a relaxing stay with great views and yummy food.
I liked the location in the center of Unawatuna close to the beach and the nice view on the rocks and on the trees. I liked nice and big mirrors, one in the room and another one in the bathroom. Very comfortable and hot shower, large comfortable bed and also large balcony. Also I liked very stylish cafe downstairs with the best coffee in Sri Lanka Lavazza. Also the wifi signal was good that is such important to me.
This is a great location. Close to the train station and bus stop. And only 10 mins walk to the beach, bars and restaurants. No noise as the rooms are away from the Galle road. The breakfasts were excellent and we also ate in the restaurant in the evening on a number of occasions. Both the food and service were 1st class. The period features of the reception are a welcome change to modern hotels in Sri Lanka.
Dandelion was a great guesthouse! The room was big and the owner was always extremely helpful, breakfast was also delicious each morning. We got the Sri Lankan option and loved it. It was about 10min walk to the beach which was fine and the walk was also very nice. the owner also had a generator which came in handy since we were working remotely and there were lots of power cuts in that time period.
This hotel was sensational. The wildlife you see is incredible. Iguanas walking around and monkeys. The comfiest pillows and the friendliest staff. The head chef was amazing and super friendly and made me the best prawn curry I have had in Sri Lanka. He went out his way to make us traditional Sri Lankan breakfast. It is very safe and the little extras made our stay very special.
Spacious villa for our family of 4, right at the pool that is not used much, so almost private. 10 mins walk to the beach, but we didnt like the beach here. Very small, crowded, rough sea. Better go 10 mins extra by tuktuk to Kogalla. Galle is close by which is a nice city. Breakfast is ok. Some small shops on walking distance and you can buy a beer at the hotel.
The friendly and efficient staff, the room balcony view , sunset view on Unawatuna Beach.
The clean spacious room with good A/C.
the breakfast all the fresh fruit platter, and the sri lankan omelette, fresh mix fruit juice.
The 10min walking distance from the beach of Unawatuna.
While the hotel is a short drive (approx 10 minutes) from Unawatuna beach, it benefits from a beautiful swimming pool and setting, large spacious bedrooms & bathrooms, plus AC included making it excellent value for money. The breakfast was great and staff very welcoming and kind.
The best stay we’ve ever had in Unawatuna! Location is amazing. The hotel, staff and facilities are excellent and cannot fault anything. Great shuttle to jungle beach. Breakfast so much to choose from. Staff were attentive and couldn’t do enough for us. 10/10!
Very nice place to stay. Clean and comfortable rooms.
Staff (Palitha and Janith) were willing to help with everything we needed. The hotel is on top of a hill, in a quiet area, but still a short distance from the Unawatuna beaches and Galle.
I would suggest to everyone who visits Unawatuna. The location is good, near to the beach and with an amazing view. The people are so lovely. And I am not even talking about their breakfasts. Great)
Our villa was stunning with views of the ocean. The hotel is located right across from Unawatuna beach which is so convenient for swimming/eating/drinking. The staff were all lovely.
The hosts are amazing and the kids are a delight. They went above and beyond to make my stay as comfortable and fun as possible. And the Sri Lankan food they offer is amazing!
Cozy jungle cottage right in the heart of town. It was walkable to everything you need, and the staff was very helpful. It was our favorite stay in Sri Lanka
The Sri Lankan food at the hotel was great. Authentic and delicious. The beach access at the front was perfect for our 1 sunny morning. Cute and quiet spot.
