    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.

    Amazing views, from the balconies & especially the roof terrace. The breakfast is amazing, everything is freshly prepared on the roof top while you are gazing out over the ocean. Clean and neat rooms/bathroom, staff member Charles was brilliant, always friendly and very helpful. Hotel owner helped to arrange a ride to Ella for a very fair price. Tucked away in the mountains, super close to the beach and town. Definitely recommend this place for a couple of nights in Unawatuna.

    What a peaceful location! One of the best stays of my whole Sri Lanka trip. It is hosted by a local family. They have very cute 2 dogs. Very friendly. Nearby to railway station, bus station and just 20 mins walk from Unawatuna Beach. Jungle beach is bit far if you want to walk but if you are taking a tuktuk or a bike, then it's just 10 mins away. If you want a budget stay around Galle, then this is the best one. Galle is just 15 mins away if you take a bus or tuktuk.

    A quiet spot located in just a stone throw from the famous Turtle Beach offers you a great base to explore south of Sri Lanka. Aravinda is an outstanding host, always keen to assist with whatever is needed. The place serves very good breakfasts inspired by the local culinary traditions. Rooms are spacious and well equipped. A garden adjacent to the house gives you the opportunity to cool down in the evening or energize yourself with the morning exercises outside.

    It was our first accomodation in Sri Lanka and as we arrived 1 day later and without luggage (technical problem with the plane), we really appreciated the excellent help from the hotel staff (thank you Lakith and other guys!). They made such an effort to get our luggage so we finally had them. The placement of the hotel is just excellent - right in the middle of the beach, nice pool, very good restaurant and mainly - great staff!

    It is known that the people of Sri Lanka are extremely friendly, but the level of hospitality and friendliness at this accomodation is simply unmatched. The hotel is beautifull, tidy, the rooms are extremely nice. The beach on which accomodation is situated was for us (couple of 2) the most beautiful in the whole of Sri Lanka. We definitely recommend it and will come again.
