(Dec 2019-Jan 2020) We (a family with 2 kids, 6 and 9 years old) stayed in the "The Green Hill Cottage " for 3N. The place is located in the nature out of the noise of the main street. It is like a big garden with many tries, and cottages here and there. There is a 10m swimming pool, which is cleant every morning. The whole family spent hours playing in the water. There is a pond, where we can see fishes and turtles. During the night we can hear the wild night life around. During the day we have seen many different kinds of animals, peacocks, parrots, firefly, varans, turtles, squirrels, monkeys, etc... Very pleasant feeling to be in the nature! Not too far, 10min on foot, there is the "Goyambokka Beach" which is very clean. The day we went, there was quite big waves, it was really fun! The whole place is very well kept. The cottage can accomodate 6 persons. Rooms have a ac system or a fan. The whole cottage was very clean and the beds are particularly comfortable. What else, breakfasts were delicious! We had 1 dinner at the hotel... amazing ! If the guests do not like dog, there is none. To finish, Mahandra (the owner) his family and the staff were all genuinely kind ! We had very nice and long talks with Mahandra :-) This place was the best we had in 2 weeks in Sri Lanka, we could have stayed much longer :-) We definitely HIGHLY recommend The Green Hill Cottage !

Whispering House

Amazing stay

Reviewed By chrislM9714JA

Best place we stayed in Sri Lanka. This place is extremely unique and special. The manager and staff are amazing and the villas / rooms extremely comfortable. Location is great as the villas are in a serene garden but within 2 minutes you’re on the beach. Would def stay again.

Reviewed By Tine A

This is a beautiful place close to the beach. We didn’t stay here, but we like to. The owner is so friendly. We got lost and walked around this nice area looking for a Tuk Tuk, when a guy called us and asked if we needed help. Now we are sitting in his beautiful garden in the shade, waiting for his friend who is coming with his Tuk Tuk. The owner and his friends are working in the heat to make a wonderful family room and his Young a cute boy in his Batman t-shirt is smiling at us. We don’t know about the rooms, but we highly recommend coming here for the atmosphere and the people :)

Mangrove Beach Cabanas & Chalets

Beach Front Chalet Joy!

Reviewed By Jadey711

The Mangrove Beach Chalet is located on a private, beautiful streched on the beach. The chalets are large, beautifully decorated, well maintained and clean. The beach hut restaurant makes lovely food, and the super friendly and service minded staff gave us great recommendations on what was fresh for the day. We had asked for Milk and Honey, but they were out in the evening, the next afternoon they had fresh curd and treacle for us and they even helped us with late check out. We had a blast!

Stop the world, I wanna get iff

Reviewed By 289lizziew

Awesome little setup, with a handful of cabanas and a two story, 4 room structure. Three years old, and run by a great group of young Sri Lankans. Nothing was too much trouble for them, ensuring that our stay was nothing short of idyllic. So quiet, with peacocks, iguanas, monkeys, a myriad of birds and mongooses (mongeese?!) wandering past your door. 300 metres to a deserted beach, which is not really a swimming beach, just a fun place to get smashed by waves! Evening meal should be ordered in the morning, to save you waiting! 15 minutes in tuk tuk to the busier strip of bars and restaurants: this place is not a party place, although the boys are a lot of fun, and love to chat and improve their English. Simple, clean rooms with good showers, mozzie nets, and wall-mounted fans. We spent six nights here unwinding after some full-on sightseeing in the hill country: awesome. Not really suitable for very small children due to location and the heavy waves.

Water Rail Islet

Amazing quiet place with lots of wild life)))

Reviewed By KarinaDanelyan

Very quiet place in front of the mangrove lagoon, only 2 rooms available so you are not bothered by other people. You can take kayak at the hotel and explore all the lake to see many birds and water varans swimming there and of course its beautiful for the sunset in mangrove trees lake. Many beautiful peacocks living by themselves in the hotel area and also coming parrots and other interesting birds and squirrels) The owner of the place is very nice guy and great chef! He always cooks all the best and fresh for people and its definitely the most tasty food I was eating in Sri Lanka for 1 month!) I was eating fish, seafood, vegetables, soup - all was very tasty and very quick!) I definitely recommend this place!)

Salt Lake Cabanas & Restaurant

Hidden Gem

Reviewed By hoopsss

Big spacious room located in a quaint idyllic location next to a lake. A short walk away from a picturesque beach which you'll likely be the only ones on. Can not recommend this place enough. Wildlife is also incredible, monkeys, peacocks parrots, herons all likely to be seen.
