Unawatuna hotels & accommodations

Fantastic villa in Unawatuna. We selected the room with plunge pool. Unfortunately the AC didn't work ( Good lesson to hotels to check ACs before handover rooms to guests) and we had to switch to the other room which having the direct access to the main pool (Both rooms are in Ground floor). It was not bad either. The best place is the rooftop restaurant. Amazing views...

I was with my son (16 years) and truly enjoyed this vacation specially Calamander Unawatuna Beach Hotel. From the time we arrived we were wellcomed in a hospitable way until we departed. All the staffs were professional specially Mr. Asela(fom) the manager who was personally attended to our requirements and comfort and he is truly a proffesional manager and a big plus ...

I don't imagine the stay being much better. Nice pools, big room with a small hot tub in the bath room (we booked super deluxe, I believe?), good location, and good food too. I'd like to point out that the restaurant appears overpriced at first, but the price is for a course on most meals (soup + dessert included). In light of that and the generally high prices in U...

My friend and I stayed here for 6 nights in a pool Pavillion room and we had the most incredible stay. The hotel was lovely and in a great setting next to the sea and only a short walk to the gorgeous beach! The rooms were very spacious and nicely decorated. The pool area was great and so relaxing! The food was fab, breakfast was very good and we ate dinner here twice ...

We booked this hotel for five days at the beginning of the New Year on the strength of the positive reviews about the pool and we were not disappointed. The pool and surrounding grounds were great with the pool being sufficiently large enough to enable lane swimming. I asked for a room with a view of the pool as the location was quieter but was also offered a room with...

my girlfriend and i stayed at thaproban beach house on new years eve 2012. pricey by sri lanka standards we got a decent room with an average view but great bathroom. the door on the room needed fixing and i think i could open it with a ice cream stick. the ac worked well but the wifi was down when we stayed. the price included a gala dinner - unfortunately we couldn'...

Cantaloupe Levels provides you with more than what you'd expect. First and foremost, the view is phenomenal. Located on top of a hill, the hotel is first of its kind in Sri Lanka, basking a 3-floor structure with 9 luxury rooms. The hotel overlooks the Unawatuna Bay, providing you spectacular insight to the stunning beach landscape of the South. The view; both invites ...

The location is perfect, just 3-4 min walk to Unawatuna beach! The garden is where you can spend quiet evenings! Very much vegetation, French style breakfast is extraordinary! I recommend you if you are staying here or in the area to taste the prepared cakes! If the roads will bring me back to Unawatuna I will definitely return to this hotel with love!

The Gloria Grand Unawatuna hotel is everything its name implies. One often wonders about he accuracy of the hotel "blurb". But the guest reports usually give a more accurate assessment. I found no fault with the Gloria Grand, nor with the warm and welcoming staff. Nothing was too much trouble My package deal was superb ... full breakfast, AC, free WiFi, clean roo...

My partner and I stayed at this hotel for four nights in July during our 2.5 wk stay in Sri Lanka. The room we had booked was one of the ocean privilege suites and wow what a room it was, one of the best we have ever stayed in anywhere in the world!! It was very big and had a full wall of glass overlooking the fabulous private beach and across to Galle. The bathroom wa...

Our stay at the Fortress was incredible. The setting is stunning with the hotel pool overlooking the beach and Indian Ocean, with turtles close to the shore line and stilt fisherman catching fish as the sun started to set, sights we will remember for a long time. Our room was patio-facing and gigantic, superbly equipped and very comfortable and luxurious. Upon arriv...

I enjoyed my stay at Thambapanni, it was at the end of my trip in Sri Lanka and I found the change of pace at Unawatuna very welcoming. It sort of felt like a haven away from the madding crowd! If you are wanting to stay at Unawatuna, Thambapanni Retreat is a great option, its not budget accommodation nor is it luxury, its a little bit rustic, but hey this is Sri Lanka...

Really decent hotel. Would highly recommend. The rooms are very clean and spacious, some rooms even have jacuzzi. The view is just amazing:you can swim in the pool and watching the waves breaking on the huge rocks. If you want to swim - main Unawatuna beach is just few minutes walking distance. The breakfasts and food from menu a la carte were delicious. Try their pizz...

We stayed for 3 nights in room 2 in January 2018. On arrival we were able to check in early and got immediate access to our bungalow. The room was beautifully decorated and very clean. It had everything we needed (plugs, fridge, mosquito net, seating area , guide book and even had a beach bag!). Andree was there to welcome us and gave us lots of great advice about ...

2 Canadians from Vancouver wish to thank all at WB Villa for a really First Class experience. 5 stars from us. Our one week in the Basilico Bungalow was the highlight of a month long stay in Sri Lanka and we could've/should've stayed longer. We came half-way across the world and WB didn't disappoint. Where do we start? - the location in Thalpe, the comfortable bungal...

We stayed at the Cantaloupe Aqua for 2 nights as a base to visit Galle. We found this to be a quiet location close to Unawatuna beach, but a little further away from Galle than anticipated. The staff were friendly and efficient upon arrival, but there was no welcome drink like we experienced in many other hotels in Sri Lanka. The hotel itself is very compact, but does...

We stayed one night at Hotel J. The hotel is brand new and I believe that this was a soft opening. The Rooms had everything you needed and the beds were super comfortable. The Rooms however, were not cleaned out perfectly. There was dust on the bathroom floor and the counters and residue from the construction. I believe, this was due to the fact that it was a soft op...

Pedlars manor is beautifully designed and feels like home. The staff and manager bnd over backwards to make your stay as comfortable as can be. The owners dripped in for breakfast just to make sure our stay was perfect, and we slept and ate so well we didnt want to leave. With 4 bedrooms its calm quiet and has plenty of space for private time. The pool and gardens are ...

The hotel is simple and basic, perfect for a short weekend getaway. It's a bit outdated, but it's nothing to complain about. The staff is really friendly and helpful. The rooms are large, simple and clean. The property has its own private beach just minutes from Unawatuna Beach. Would definitely stay here again.

We really enjoyed and recommend the Dunes Unawatuna hotel. The Sri Lankan owner spent a number of years living in Australia and has made sure this newly built hotel has good Western standards - quite a difference to other places we've stayed in Sri Lanka. The staff were friendly and attentive, we enjoyed the food, and the beach is great for swimming, running, and a ra...

The gardener really takes good care of the pool and the beach. It's very clean. He asked us to visit KK again in Nov / Dec time when the beach is suitable for swimming. Breakfast is very good. Staff is well trained. My gf and I were sick during our stay. The manager immediately invited doctor (Dr. Silva) to visit us. There's always tuk tuk outside KK (2 Sri Lanka broth...

Lush grounds, beautifully decorated rooms, lovely and very efficient manager, friendly and helpful staff, talented chef, excellent location. Staff was quietly available for all needs. Manager, Chathuri, is simply excellent at her job. She is skilled in the (not so easy) art of hospitality and we appreciated her honesty and professionalism. Grand Suite highly recommend...

Our holiday was so amazing at The Long Beach Resort, Koggala, Sri Lanka. First of all we wish to thank all the staff for making our stay so enjoyable. The friendly members of staff provided exceptional services during our stay. We arrived to the hotel around 11 A.M and were warmly welcomed. Our arrival was an early on the hotel’s clock-in, however our room was quickly ...

The hotel is realy good. At first the they have the nicest staff from Sri Lanka (Manager Chris and his team). They will help you everytime. I'm still in contact with Chris today (Whatsapp). The cook will make you everthing what you want. The rooms are very nice (we had poolview). But sometimes you hear the cars. The pool is also very very nice. It´s long enough for sw...

We are so glad that we stayed at this hotel. Unfortunately after the tsunami none hotel are allowed to renovate at the beach that much so the rooms are at the moment not in the best shape. (For the moment is the only person who can and are allowed to build luxury room and hotel at the beach is the presidents brother).. However the rooms are okey standard and if their i...

We had a wonderful 3 nights here. We loved the very welcoming staff, especially the manager Henrietta, who went out of her way to make sure we had a fabulous time. The food was probably the best we had in Sri Lanka. We were travelling with 2 small children and there needs were well catered for. Couldn't recommend this place highly enough.

I stayed here for 2 nights and was thoroughly pleased with my stay. Owner is a Russian couple and although it was off-season there were 2 other russian couples in the villa next to mine - they were very good neighbours so I didn't mind. The design of the villa is fantastic, concrete linings all around - very rustic feel. The owners also provided a very comprehensive gu...
Cheap places to stay in Unawatuna

super clean, nice dorms, comfortable beds, private fan, light and socket. large lockers. amazing free breakfast, so much food!! the staff are so nice and friendly. can rent bicyclesand motorcycles here. I would highly recommend. this place deserves more recognition!!

When we arrived host explained that someone decided to stay one night longer, so we are not able to get the room we booked, but she can offer another one. It was shed with broken bed. Not too clean and in averall awful. (we are not picky at all, but this wad too much). Possibly it could be nice stay in booked room. Of course if we would get there.

We enjoyed having a whole apartment to ourselves with a fully equipped kitchen. Only 5 min walk from main road and beautiful Dallawella beach. The owner was easily reachable by what's app. Unfortunately he only had one bicycle for rental which wasn't useful for us and the Wi-Fi was really really slow.

What a wonderful hostel! I was travelling on my own and was treated like an old friend by the staff and friends of the owner. There's a very relaxed atmosphere about the place and the people that stay there. The free breakfast is amazing, the beds comfy and the hostel dog Kush is probably the sweetest animal that ever lived. Nowhere else in Sri Lanka did I get to chat ...

We stayed at La Villa for 2 weeks and was the prefect place to explore Unawatuna from. La Villa is a lovely family run hotel in a perfect location, 5 minutes walk from the beach in a quiet area. The owners were very helpful and so friendly and sorted out any problems. They moved us rooms when our toilet was leaking and went out of their way to make us feel welcome. Th...

Restrictions on Wi-Fi usage and having beers in the room which would be nice to know before you book your holiday. Lock for door a padlock on outside, we got trapped in room as lock partially engaged but got out by shaking door, no one heard us knocking or calling out. The night before they'd put bars over windows for security, drilling through wall and bits fell on b...

we stayed for 2 nights at Disa's home. the room is very comfortable, has access to a beautiful veranda with sea view through some palm trees and a private bathroom with all necessary facilities (no warm water though). on our first night, Disa served us some delicious homemade rice and curry which is the best we had on our trip so far. it's a five minute walk from the ...

The lovely people at Pearl had had a double booking issue and welcomed me gladly and sent me next door to Singha Villas for one night of my two night stay. In less than thirty minutes I asked if I could spend the two nights at Singha Villas. It is so low key, super easy going, very simple accommodation, but everything you need for a two night stay at the beautiful Unaw...

Probably the best home stay for us in Sri Lanka. Though initially a struggle to find the place, we loved it just as soon as we entered. Very hospitable owners, they gave us a lovely welcome and helped us with the tour of their property, their lovely greens (quite a variety of herbal plants and trees), their animals and the super awesome tree house. Lavish breakfast lat...

I had an absolutely wonderful stay! My room was an excellent value: ensuite bathroom/shower, clothes rack, mosquito net, and the shared Balcony area was great to hang out with some other travelers. But aside from this, I was truly treated like a member of their own family. I Highly recommend staying here. Also don't forget to ask about the cooking class. It was perhaps...

Our booked room was at the "Main Road" which is very loud at sleeping time and at the morning . We asked then for another room in the backyard. It seem two be very new builded rooms and it was quiet too in the night so we decided to stay for the whole holiday 10 nights. All in All its a nice Guesthouse with Laundry and Food Service and nice owner family

Kandy and her husband could not have been more hospitable. The house is basic but comfortable and the garden is stunning!! We even came home to find monkeys in the mango tree outside! Delicious Sri Lankan breakfast served each morning. Excellent location, just down the steps and across the road and you’re on the beach! we will definitely be returning on our next trip t...

I booked to stay one nignt & ended up staying two. The room was really clean and comfortable. Bed was bed and one of the best sleeps i have had since travelling. Walking distance to the beach & everything. Amazing coffee shop near by too, they serve REAL coffee. I would definately stay here again.

If you one is looking for something quiet, away from the hustle-bustle of the crowded beaches of Unawatuna, this would be a ideal location. It is right on the Ahangama beach which is only beach where you can catch a glimpse of the famous "stilt fishing" technique used by local fishermen.

We had a lovely stay at black beauty guest house. The pool was a nice relief when we first arrived and wanted to cool down before a trip into galle and didn't want to go to the beach. We had a great night at the rooftop bar and restaurant and really appreciated a chance to talk to the lovely staff who work their and learn a bit more about Sri Lankan culture! The locati...

Anara is a HORRIFFIC place, do not risk your safety by staying there. I had no choice but leave after a horrible afternoon spent in Anara. When I arrived there was no wifi, there was no electricity, there was no hot water, and than the water stopped completely. No mosquito net either, but at the time I did not focus on this. The two men there kept saying that wifi and ...

I based my stay on reviews and was not disappointed! What a treat this place was...charming, a real boutique hotel where the staff were wonderfully attentive and the breakfast was divine. I loved everything about this place...the room was stylish but not over the top...a gorgous balcony overlooking the frangapanie tree and birds. We will stay again. Thank you to ALL th...

Great little spot tucked away behind the beach- 2 mins walk from Dalawella/Wijaya beach. Very friendly welcoming and helpful Family who will go out of their way to make your stay good. Very good value for an AC room and also a minute from street food shops, supermarket and bus stop. definitely recommend!

I’ve only pleasant memories about 10-days stay in Dilena. Very helpful, smiling and accommodating staff. Staff’s always ready to meet the needs (gave us better room). Good location – walking distance to small shops, supermarket and the best beach of Unawatuna (10-15 minutes on foot). Nice view (ocean across the road). Hotel manager’s very friendly, he gave us valuable ...

Absolutly loved staying here, wish we would have booked for longer! - the family are so nice and welcoming, great english, so helpful and always smiling - EAT ALL YOUR MEALS HERE. The food is amazing, best food i have had in sri lanka and the best you will find anywhere near here trust me! The sri lankan breakfasts and curries especially. - hot shower, (which is a ...

We booked Kumar guest house before travelling largely based on previous reviews and we weren't disappointed. The location was perfect, just down a side street so was quiet but just a few minutes walk to cafes, bars, beach Tec. The owners were very friendly and the breakfast, which was brought to you outside your room, was excellent. The rooms were of a high standard of...

We booked only couple nights but we ended up staying almost 2 weeks. Jasmin Inn is very friendly place, felt like a home, with beautiful people around. The rooms are clean, the view from the balcony is amazing, the staff including the lovely owners are very helpful, made our stay more than enjoyable! The location of the hotel is very good, as its quite place to relax, ...

Green Villa was the most beautiful hotel I stayed during my trip to Sri Lanka and also one of the cheapest! The hotel is in lovely surroundings and very close to the beach and Unawatuna shops/restaurants etc. The family are very kind and willing to help.

Friendliest of people... very accommodating and very helpful. The room was clean, neutral and good size. We were offered tea when we returned from a day at the beach which was sweet of the guy who prepared breakfast for us everyday. Variation of Sri Lankan breakfast along with toast, butter and jam... also Ceylon tea or coffee. The beach is one minute walk and it i...

Everyone helped us to make our stay comfortable and cheerful. My kid enjoyed a lot at the swimming pool for nearly 4hrs floating like a fish due to low gravity and high density of the water near unawatuna. It is a well secured place and can travel to any city.Food was excellent and provided anything we asked for. Rooms and bathrooms were clean. The management was alw...

We stayed here for 5 nights in total. 2 nights to start off before we moved to Mirissa, but as Unawatuna is closer to Galle and the airport we decided to return for our final 3 nights of our 2 week holiday in Sri Lanka. This place is very clean, large basic rooms with 4 poster beds to house the mozzie net with ensuite and both air con and fan. The rooms are basic howev...

Great pool Clean rooms Friendly staff Great food Quiet location (Unawatuna centre is easy to reach but you’ll need transport) The room was completely separated from the other buildings, which creates a lot of privacy Although we enjoyed our stay I think the hotel was a bit overpriced If you are looking for a nice place to stay a bit away from the busy centre but close...

This place is isolated, in the best possible way. The staff attend to your every need in what feels like a very presonalised service. The setting on the lake was amazing, with a very well-kept pool overlooking it and it proved very refreshing when a midday 'cool off' was required. We considered the food slightly overpriced to begin with, but soon changed our minds afte...

Pros: - The staff are great, very helpful. Due to language barriers, you may need to repeat your requests, but they're very helpful. It's also a small hotel (8 rooms, I think), so you do get a lot of attention. - Rooms are bigger than you expect. Our room (beach studio) was advertised as 18 m2, but I'm pretty sure it was bigger. - Ground-floor rooms open out onto a pat...

We stayed here two nights, which make us feel free and relax, the room is good, and well decoration, the staff is friendly, and small all the time. we can not access to the beach directly, but it is not hard to go to beach, I was told we can not swimming in the sea area in front of the villa, it is reef area, so maybe if you want to swim, change another place. we try...

Excellent hotel and restaurant. Only downside is loud music from parties of other bars and clubs, sometimes till early in the morning (4AM). So better attend the parties yourself otherwise it can be quite disturbing. Food and service in Tartaruga is excellent!

We stayed for 4 days and enjoyed our time. The beach at Koggala is one of the nicest one in Sri Lanka and it is right out the door. The room is tastefully decorated and the staff do an outstanding job of keeping the rooms and garden in pristine condition. The area is not as crowded as others, so it was nice to enjoy quiet, undisturbed time, but to also be close to the ...

past the initial problems with reservation, we had a nice stay. the staff did their best to resolve the issue, the services were great in comparison to other places in sri lanka. overall we are satisfied. the beach is just across the street, you get a fresh beach towel and a bottle of cold water every day on your way to the beach. i recommend this place!

We have just stayed for 4 nights at this hotel and had a wonderful time! The hotel is a small boutique guest house with only 5 rooms set amongst the jungle - the setting is perfect, beautiful surroundings away from the busyness of the main beach in Unawatuna, but only a short tuk tuk ride away (the main beach area is only a 250 rupee tuk tuk away and the hotel owns it'...

villa saldana is right on the beach in habaraduwa. it is about 15 minutes to galle via tuk tuk. the location is lovely - you feel you are in an untouched pristine paradise like beach! the staff are also great. amal and romesh looked after us very well - they went to the market, cooked, drove us places and also found us a great local beautician to dress us in a sari for...

Our stay at the Fortress was incredible. The setting is stunning with the hotel pool overlooking the beach and Indian Ocean, with turtles close to the shore line and stilt fisherman catching fish as the sun started to set, sights we will remember for a long time. Our room was patio-facing and gigantic, superbly equipped and very comfortable and luxurious. Upon arriv...

Really decent hotel. Would highly recommend. The rooms are very clean and spacious, some rooms even have jacuzzi. The view is just amazing:you can swim in the pool and watching the waves breaking on the huge rocks. If you want to swim - main Unawatuna beach is just few minutes walking distance. The breakfasts and food from menu a la carte were delicious. Try their pizz...

2 Canadians from Vancouver wish to thank all at WB Villa for a really First Class experience. 5 stars from us. Our one week in the Basilico Bungalow was the highlight of a month long stay in Sri Lanka and we could've/should've stayed longer. We came half-way across the world and WB didn't disappoint. Where do we start? - the location in Thalpe, the comfortable bungal...

Pedlars manor is beautifully designed and feels like home. The staff and manager bnd over backwards to make your stay as comfortable as can be. The owners dripped in for breakfast just to make sure our stay was perfect, and we slept and ate so well we didnt want to leave. With 4 bedrooms its calm quiet and has plenty of space for private time. The pool and gardens are ...

The gardener really takes good care of the pool and the beach. It's very clean. He asked us to visit KK again in Nov / Dec time when the beach is suitable for swimming. Breakfast is very good. Staff is well trained. My gf and I were sick during our stay. The manager immediately invited doctor (Dr. Silva) to visit us. There's always tuk tuk outside KK (2 Sri Lanka broth...

We had a wonderful 3 nights here. We loved the very welcoming staff, especially the manager Henrietta, who went out of her way to make sure we had a fabulous time. The food was probably the best we had in Sri Lanka. We were travelling with 2 small children and there needs were well catered for. Couldn't recommend this place highly enough.

This was one of the best hotels we stayed in Sri Lanka. The whole place from facilities, rooms and service was excellent. Set within a tea estate and up in the hills it was peaceful, cool and a welcome retreat from the heat of Galle. Beautifully designed rooms that were extremely comfortable and stylish. The service was amazing - we requested a drink of young fres...

Great intimate boutique hotel with only 9 rooms. Great service (we were the only people staying during our 4 day trip) The staff are very friendly and attentive. The location is 5 minutes from Unawatuna and 15 minute from Galle, we hired scooters (the hotel arranged these) and explored easily with them. The beach is not for swimming as the sea is too rough but you can ...

We had a fantastic stay at the Footprints Villa, the Villa itself is beautiful, feels rather a private villa than a hotel, and the staff is very nice, and helpful, they make you feel home. We had twice dinner there which was very delicious, also the breakfast was very good and plenty. The Villa has direct access to the sea, half minute walk to Thalpe beach. The Villa l...

Yes this is a pricey hotel compared to others on the coast, however our stay was incredible and the standard of service/ food/ location were 5 stars. The Owl and Pussycat was the perfect place to relax and unwind at the end of our journey around Sri Lanka. Check out the very secluded, private and untouched beach next to the hotel, with a close view of the fishermen and...

Staff extremely helpful and attentive. Willing to help with everything. In fact they went above and beyond to help us (get a extension cable and adapter). Beautiful property with stunning views of Unawatuna beach/bay. Short walk to the local shop. Great breakfast and wonderful place to enjoy a coffee in the morning. Would recommend this place and would definitely retur...

Service was excellent and they gave us an upgrade which was great. Breakfast was lovely and staff extremely pleasant. We loved that their were monkeys right on our doorstep. Although it is a villa it would be great to have a fridge to store some drinks however we didn't ask so I'm sure they'd accomodate on request. Not the place for those who want to be right in the...

this was an absolute great find and was the best of comparably priced hotels in southern sri lanka on the beach. food is fantastic, typical hotel prices but absolutely top notch- we ended up eating most meal there! the hotel only has 8 rooms, and feels like a private villa. all faculties and rooms very clean. salt water pool is great. we tried to stay in jetwing lighth...

This visit was my tenth visit to Apa Villa over the past 7 years. I have stayed their with my child, with my parents, with my friends and for a romantic weekend with my husband. Apa Villa is the epitome of a boutique hotel; its handful of rooms are beautifully, simply and elegantly appointed. The small staff is very attentive, while respecting privacy and providin...

We enjoyed a marvellous stay at Villa Mayurana. The piece of paradise is tucked away in Unawatuna and boasts a huge area of land with stunning flowers and greenery. The Villa itself is very elegant and we stayed in the Grand suite. The bed was very comfortable and I slept like a baby. The staff made us feel very much at home, especially Gihan. The food is delicious...

Satin Doll was a gorgeous place to stay. We loved the rooms and the lovely shaded pool and meals by the ocean. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. Food was excellent, though a bit overpriced. There's direct access to a beautiful, secluded beach, but keep in mind this beach is too rocky to swim in. You have to go about a kilometer down to Unawatuna for swimming....

Very relaxed , cosy and comfortable, like staying in a private house with wonderful staff .and no need to lock rooms or have room number. V refreshing. No set meal times , dinner bought in fresh if ordered by 5pm. And food delicious . Great ambience , good deep swimming pool , small beach but good for amble etc . Not swimming. Rooms large and spacious with plenty of ...

Real reviews for hotels
The towns around are small and nice people and if need a better place for shopping its the Galle town in which you get all in there with loads of things to see and loads of restaurants, Its 15 minutes away
Great beach side restaurants. We recommend Kingfisher. Cool little shops to go in and out of on the streets.
It's a relaxed place really friendly, a bit like Thailand beach places but much smaller, price friendly so good for the budget traveller as well as everyone else there are plenty of upmarket options for everything, shop here it's less expensive and competitive than a lot of other places
Unawatuna is great with the night life and central point of all vacationers to get together at one location.
Unawatuna is a good place to stay for its beach and nature.It is a good place for relaxation. There is one anoying thing that there are lots of local people who tried to sell you something on the beach.
Not much to do. No bars or nightclubs at all, only some in hotels. No ATM in unawatuna. Very nice beach only during the right time of year which is winter.
either love or hate. if you are looking for night life like pataya thailand and this place is not at all for you.
Crowdy beach not far from Galle, you can enjoy Galle fort site (easy and unexpensive acces by local bus) and spend some time in the beach.
High waves - but toward the temple at the far end of the beach is more quiet and better for children.
Its a small town, all full of lovely small private villas so you feel very homely. the feeling is great as the sea is at your door step.
Lovely beach with lots of restaurants opening onto the beach. Water clear and warm. Took Tuk Tuk ride to Jungle Beach - a small beach with only one restaurant serving great fresh seafood.
Really sad to see that the beach has all but gone now. About time that the Sri Lanka government did something to save what was once one of the top ten beaches in the world.
Quiet place. Though the hotels at Unawatuna beach are small and have very limited capacities, you can find a large number of hotels most of them having opening to the beach.
I wouldn´t really call it a town. It´s just a long street with tons of guesthouses and restaurants and turistshops.
I prefer the highland like Ella and Kandy, very cooling, we are there in Dec already quite hot, I believe the mid year will be worst.
It is a great place to explore the beaches of Southern Sri Lanka The beaches are superb all the way down the coast but Unawatuna probably offers the best selection of restaurants Plus you can swim in the sea at these beaches and further down the coast you can't It is worth at least 5 nights of any trip to the South and it is about a 2 hour trip to Mirissa beach which is also fantastic and also safe after this down to Tangalle has some of the best beaches but it is a small town but you can't swim
Watch out! The half of the beach simply disappeared. The city is very crowded, full of 1-star hotels and cheap tourists, mainly Russian.
Perfect for relaxation if you choose the right place to stay. Ideal for those who crave some fun as the beach strip comes alive in the night.
Walk along the beach and one can visit different bars and taste the food they offer. If a traveler prefers to surf, one could do so at the Unawatuna beach.
Unawatuna is a lovely village on the South coast. The village where all the bars and restaurants are in very vibrant and good to take a walk down to stop and admire all it has to offer.
Main street has plenty of small shops and the beach is lined with bars and restaurants. A beautiful temple overlooks the white sand beach and the local people could not be friendlier.
Relaxing beach bay. Interesting restaurants and much more chilled vibe than Hikkaduwa. Wijeya Beach is a highlight for good food and relaxation.
Beaches - private resort beaches or Unawatuna beach with shacks, night party places (rare in SL otherwise).
Unwatuna is an amazing city. There a lot of afforable and nice places to stay, different types of restaurants to keep your taste buds satisfied.
April-May is the low season. sea is a bit weavy. no crab & very hot. but you may get cheap accommodation.
