Paper Moon Kudils
Pothuvil,Pothuvil - View on map"I have been wanting to try Paper Moon Kudils for a long time and I'm glad we did. I like their concept of the basics that then invokes the local landscape. Rather than going to another Western-style hotel, I wanted my family to experience the local through their kudils (rooms) and kussini (kitchen). Although they are very slow at getting the food to the table (we waited for one and a half hours for lunch), the food is good. They have the best egg roti in Sri Lanka, a great dhal curry, a fresh pol sambol, and an interesting dessert with banana, chocolate, and ice cream on an egg roti. But they are also quite disorganised in their office... I had to phone numerous times to get a booking while rooms were disappearing fast on Agoda. They couldn't help me over the phone, so in the end, I booked through Agoda and ended up getting the rooms on the landslide. I would have preferred the seaside as I was traveling with folks in their eighties as well and the walk to the dining area was a bit much for some. But the seaside rooms were all gone... Also, when checking out, they had undercharged us and I had to point out that they had missed one dinner. So, they need to get their office and kitchen more organised. But apart from that, the rooms are clean, the pool is great, and the Ocean was good, though a little strong for body boarding. It is worth a try, if you want a clean, friendly place that also helps the locals."

Jetwing Surf
Pothuvil,Pothuvil - View on map"The hotel itself was good. We had a hut right on the ocean and it made a world of a difference in the experience. Waking up to the ocean every morning is something else. The room itself was nice. You do have an outdoor bathroom so if you're expecting absolutely no bugs, you're dreaming. That being said, given the hut is essentially indoor/ outdoor, it is very clean and even cooler than I thought it would be as there is no ac (3-4 fans)
The pool at the resort was great. Drinks were good too. The staff was all super friendly. I know it's not customary here but dont be afraid to tip the staff!! They work very hard to make sure you have a good stay.
As for the beach, it was clean a s nice in front of the hotel. We knew before hand that you could not surf at this time so we were not upset about this like other reviews. Also, the dogs on the property were amazing! Plz remember to give them your left overs. There is no need for the guard to use a stick to push them away. They are great dogs "

Babar Point
Pothuvil,Pothuvil - View on map"After staying in many accommodations throughout Sri Lanka, we were fortunate enough to find Babar Point. The setup: Six elegant cabanas surrounding a pristine pool. The Cabanas: the beds are huge and comfortable, the sheets are top-notch, the room itself is large with great air-conditioning. Additionally, they are very well-built/sealed to prevent insects. The restaurant: open from 8 am until 9 pm, serves a variety of Western and Sri Lankan dishes. The staff: is unbelievable! You can order your food and drinks throughout the day, and they will serve it to you at the pool or on your lovely porch (complete with day bed). The area: 10 minute walk to famous Whiskey Point surf break. 5 minute walk to a breathtaking lagoon where elephants frequent! THE HOSTS: Catherine and Michele are the coolest hosts we've ever met. They will do anything to make your stay perfect. They are sweet, funny, and kind! We stayed four extra nights because we were so in love with this place. "
