We had a five night the cabana right on the beach. The cottage is simple and functional equipped. Because of the strong waves at this time of year it was very noisy, but it was still the sea was very nice. You could watch the sea turtles in the cabin. The staff in the rock side is very nice and welcoming. Breakfast was good, you could go to a small fee at any time with the tuktuk somewhere, so we have enjoyed! read more

We visited the cabana 1. We had informed us before and were not surprised, that all look, as it was by the pictures on the Internet. There is a guesthouse, one could say, that there is a good service. You can get to any time delicious food cooked to order. The staff of the guest houses are the complex to keep it clean. Unfortunately, the washed ashore trash was not removed from the beach often enough. German thoroughness there is not require. In general, there was a very pleasant but relaxed atmosphere. You can enjoy quiet evenings or the one ... hand in the nightlife in Unatwatuna or bile fall. It is not exactly full moon, it is in the area very quiet. There is a German managers (husband and a rude woman) the last days a little irritating and the presence of a reckless loud celebration with local friends to the Vollmondes partying had to, although on the grounds, there is a family with two small children and a number of other guests trying to sleep. This would be no problem former, if the noise didn't start until gone three o'clock at night. But don't worry, the opportunities, that the German boss with this woman in your vacation there are, are low. So far nothing to complain about, recommended further. No guest houses have seen in the area, the better were, although I have looked at what from time to time. Tip: If you can afford the Sri Gemunu, the very happy there is also! ☺ It made a very good impression read more

A small paradise archived

The rock side guesthouse is a very nice location directly on the sea. There are three rooms in the main building and three cabanas landscaped palm trees garden. I inhabited the room in house B with a large terrace, on which two chairs. I liked the room, the beds are comfortable but for people above 1.85 probably a bit too short. The office has a PC, internet access was free for tourists. Documents and valuables in the safe deposit you can. The people are very friendly and helpful always. They can arrange tours and excursions or a massage. In ... the small restaurant has a wide selection of delicious dishes, which were always freshly prepared. On request, there is also a barbecue, the grill is fuelled with Koko nut shell and you could enjoy the fresh grilled fish at the table served in the garden (! Recommendation!). If you wanted to eat out, there are a few minutes walk away on the beach, for example, the 'Wijaya beach restaurant' or you can go to unawatuna. The breakfast is rather simple, but a little tip for something alternation: occasional singhalesische variant the sample. The beach at the rock side is simply great. You were mostly the feeling, you could have a 'private beach', only on holidays it was a bit crowded. The area in which you can bathe wasn't't very large, but due to the reef lying off it is even with higher waves was very nice and quiet. You can walk for hours 28° warm water in. Pure relaxation. read more

We'have been here for the third time here former. The guesthouse is one of the most beautiful plants of this area. We felt very good there again. There is a very personal and family atmosphere. Susil maintains the park and always had a sympathetic ear opened. Taraka is a very good cook and nice tours organized. Ishan is always to service the Gabanas and room was clean. Furthermore, it makes the best breakfast whether Sinhalese or continental breakfast. We will vacation here the next because we feel at home. We have all kind and can only recommend the complex. Kind ... regards and Keep up the good work ☺ Brigitte and cristoph ☺ read more

An unusually careless hostel archived

As already expressed in the evaluation, the hygienic circumstances are incredibly dirty this destination. This begins with the room (all four days by sweep) and with the kitchen and the restaurant. I can tell at this point no details, good taste as this far would undercut. The hostel (the hotel could not call) is a diving. Caution: 1 kilometer away and this is the transfer is not as overpriced übrlich in the price of 20 euro diving (with your own equipment) costs. The spots are still not tropical-the visibility are mostly below five meters. Here you will need either for ... diving to go swimming. read more

Well-kept guest house right on the beach archived

The house is ca.2, 5 kilometer south of unawatuna directly on a beautiful beach, but due to rocks and surf, only in a small, lying off by the reef protected area, suitable for bathing. I especially liked, the feeling to have, the beach am a alone, so it was nice and quiet. The area behind the main street, but I said in my bungalow (cabana 1) not. As the street appartements looks I can't review. The manager was very friendly and good English speaking. The bungalow was swept. Fresh towels and bedlinen every four days. Only small point of ... criticism is the breakfast, I think it for them, for four slices of toast and always the same jam and about three euro, a bit too expensive and boring. But frankly, that you could directly on the patio on the ocean got. In about 50m away there are a couple of tiny shops in which you could get the most necessary, such as water, soft drinks, fruit or small pastries can buy cheap. To go out to eat outside of the hotel you have to go with the Tuk Tuk to unawatuna drive, as there are no opportunities in the immediate vicinity. Costs for the trip back and forth about two euro Excursions, for example to Kandy I made with Romesh, www. Srilanka-rundreise. De see, I can recommend the most warmly. He is very friendly, and unlike many locals, a very careful driver, whom I have always felt safe. You should be good understanding of English, so he asked egle offered a German-speaking friend, of the trip. read more
