Positive: A beautiful, peaceful place. Only two minutes' walk to the beach, but it's lovely to just sit in the garden, listening to the birds singing. The guys who work here were friendly and helpful. One of then drives a tuk-tuk, and took me to Mulkirigala rock temple through the rice fields. The other served a generous and tasty breakfast every day. I'd strongly recommend a stay here: if I'm ever back in Tangalle, it's where I'll come!
Summary: A peaceful garden with bird song and the sound of waves

Positive: The host really made our stay so special. Immediately we were greeted with a smile and offered a coconut each, which were absolutely delicious! The room was spacious and very clean with everything we needed! The room was quite hot but the ceiling fan did the job! The accommodation is only a few minutes walk to the beach, which was very quiet and absolutely beautiful. We had a delicious breakfast prepared by the host. A proper Sri Lankan feast, with tea/coffee, hoppers, dahl, sambol and fruit from his own garden! The host stayed to chat to us about his life which was lovely and very interesting. His welcoming nature was what really made our stay. He then offered to drive us all the way to our next stop in Hiriketiya and even stopped off at the blow hole on the way. This was extremely generous of him as it was close to an hour long journey. A beautiful stay and one we will remember for a long time!!
Negative: No WiFi in the bedroom but this wasn’t too much of an issue. The WiFi in the reception area worked great!
Summary: A truly special stay

Positive: The host was kind and helpful. The room and bathroom were huge. Breakfast was copious and quite tasty. If you are there in the low season, don't hesitate to ask the lovely owner for dinner as very few places are open for food service. The location is far from town and far from the bus station, but it is ideal if you just want to walk on the beach and to see turtles at night (during the season). It is less than a 5 min walk to the beach.

Positive: Great place in a great location. The room was big and clean on the top floor. Had plenty of space to put clothes. The gardens were beautiful. Was only a 1 minute walk if that to the gorgeous clean quiet beach. Was so quiet on a night and slept really well. The owner was lovely and friendly and so helpful. He Had a tuk tuk and can take you to places for a very good price. Originally booked for 2 nights but ended up staying 5. Didn’t want to leave in the end. There’s some great local restaurants around and a supermarket not far away. Would definitely come back and I’m sad to leave 😢 felt at home here.
Negative: Nothing
Summary: Amazing

Positive: I really enjoyed my stay here! The owners were very friendly and helpful and made sure I had everything that I needed while respecting my privacy. Their food is also very tasty with great portions! The cabana was really cute and I loved sitting on the terrace admiring the garden and listening to the wildlife! I saw monkeys, monitor lizards and lots of birds! The property is a really short walk (5 mins) to the beach where you can swim safely.
Negative: It is rustic, so there were a few insects etc, but I didn’t mind - it’s a tropical location so I expected it! Bring mozzie spray and burn a coil and you’ll be fine.
Summary: Peaceful stay in relaxing surroundings
