Hotels with Swim-up Rooms in Unawatuna

The location and amenities were excellent. The private pool facing the sea beach felt amazing.

Stunning hotel and views across the ocean! Our suite was lovely and the private pool very convenient (although a bit cool!) very quick r500 tuk tuk ride into the fort area. Recommended!

We had a lovely recent visit to Le Grand Galle. The hotel was very quiet as it was off season. They were kind enough to upgrade us to a room with a plunge pool. Fabulous! We loved that it was close to town so we could walk to the Fort (even at night). Overall, the hotel is still growing up as it is only a year or two old but the rooms are amazing and the staff is very friendly. We look forward to visiting them again in future.

Such a perfect choice for any celebration or a relaxing vacation with your family and loved ones. Le Grand in Galle offers that perfect blend of elegance and serenity.The cozy ambience, luxurious touches, and the charm of the plunge pool was mesmerising and made our experience unforgettable. Specially the iconic locating facing the galle dutch fort and the sea. Thank you Navoda(RDM),Sajani(Reservations) and the entire team of Le grand for the room arrangements specially made for my birthday (bed deco,cake,fruit basket etc)

This property really blew us away, location is literally at the end of the city overlooking the sea and with Galle fort right next to it. The pool and gardens overlook the sea and fort, just lovely. We booked the private pool suite and honestly it was one of the biggest rooms my wife and I have ever stayed in. The washroom alone was as big as many normal hotel rooms. Features in the room, overall comfort was top class. The staff exceptional and super attentive. We literally loved every meal we ate there and that includes the initial day room service which we had to wolf down to catch an evening tour group into Galle fort. We made sure to spend time in the lovely pool every day we were there and ended up having either lunch or dinner at the hotel everyday. This type of room opens into a private garden that overlooks the sea, just beautiful every morning to wake up to it and have your morning coffee or tea.

Our stay was perfect. We stayed in ocean view room with plunge pool and it was worth amazing views! Staff were lovely and attentive

I recently stayed at this hotel and it felt like a hidden paradise. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed with a fruit platter, chocolates, and delicious Sri Lankan sweets in our room. The staff were incredibly friendly, and the food was delicious, especially the continental and American dishes. Everything was perfect. The hotel boasts a big swimming pool and a beautifully scenic beach atmosphere. My room had a jacuzzi on the balcony directly facing the sea, creating an amazing ambiance with the ocean and pool outside. The rooms were spacious with lovely décor, and the beds were really comfortable. Overall, I had an amazing stay and highly recommend this hotel.

The service was on a very high level - the staff paid attention even to small details. The room and bathroom were big and comfortable with nice balcony and view. The common areas (restaurant, pool, beach) were large so that it didn’t feel crowded at any time. I recommend the spa service - the massages and other treatments we did were really good.

Location was splendid, you have private access to a section of the beach. Lifeguards are on duty on the beach and around the pool. The staff across Aditya are so receptive, they go out of their way to make it an incredible stay for you whether you are there one night or more.

The best Hotel in Sri Lanka … beautiful Place, friendly stuff , very very clean , the rooms are amazing, wonderful good… big and nice Beach, clean and beautiful Pool … everthing perfect❤️ we come back. Thank you Aditya for your kindness

The loveliest stay at The Harding Boutique Hotel! We only had one night to spend in Ahangama and we're just so glad that we chose this hotel to spend it at. The staff were so friendly and made us feel so welcome on arrival, the room was just beautiful - super clean, beautifully decorated and had the most incredible view. They kindly upgraded us on arrival and we were so grateful as the room was just beautiful. I also have to mention the toiletries in the bathroom are all Grown Alchemist which felt like a total luxury after weeks of using basic soap. The breakfast was incredible (we both decided it was the best of our whole trip) and the whole vibe was just perfect. We didn't get a chance to use the pool but it's the perfect plunge pool and it's literally a two minute walk from the beach. The location is also ideal, just a few minutes from the row of restaurants and bars and it still felt like a bustling town not a tourist hot spot. Our only regret was that we didn't stay longer! We'll be back!

beautiful property that looked like the pictures. very fresh modern with nice finishings (glasses, towels etc) no expense spared in making it comfortable. it is really small but never seemed too busy by pool (which we worried about initially as the pool is very small) but people seemed to roam in and out as it’s in a good location to beach bars and restaurants. staff were really lovely and accommodating. has a nice rooftop bar and everything we ate was great from breakfast to dinner

The staff is just outstanding! Everybody is very friendly, thought- and helpful. The fact that the house only accommodates 6 rooms gives a very exclusive feeling and so it also doesn’t really matter, that the pool is a bit small - but the beach (aka the big pool) is just a few steps away. We really loved to stay 5 nights there in total and definitely recommend a visit!

Overall a great place to stay! The staff are extremely helpful and friendly. The view overlooks Ahangama beach. The pool is slightly small but serves the purpose of being a chill pool. There is direct access to the beach from the property. Their breakfast menu is good too. Overall I had a fabulous stay!

Beautiful boutique hotel. Location is perfect, walking distance to all the shops and restaurants. The hotel is very aesthetically pleasing. We had a room in the adjacent building. It was compact, on ground level without a view or balcony (you get what you pay for and the price was reflective of not having these extras), but it was all we really needed and the bed and pillows were soooo comfortable! Shower was huge and the air con worked great. The hotel is situated down a side road off the main road, so we had no issues with noise and security was present day/ night. Breakfast is also worth a mention - a large selection to choose from and absolutely delicious. The pool is small, but so is the hotel, so often you have it to yourself. Loved that this hotel was ‘adult only,’ as it made the experience very peaceful. The staff were also very lovely and attentive. A couple hotel dogs onsite which was an absolute bonus for us. We loved seeing that these dogs were cared for, allowed to lounge around the hotel in the shade and cash in on some of our brekkys!

Whole villa surrounded by lovely greeneries. Western style with wooden touches that makes it very warm. Recently renovated. Equipped with a kitchen, linens, outdoor poolside seating, bed canopies and even mosquito repellent. Villa staff served us at their best, offering some very delicious and authentic local dishes. Breakfast is inclusive, but other meals come with additional cost. Villa attendant, Nimali, was very helpful too and very responsive.

Everyone was so kind especially to our two young kids and the food was so delicious and the pool so serene with monkeys playing in the trees and beautiful birds to watch! What an incredible place!

We visited Coconut Grove for a family trip and will cherish the memories we made there forever. This property is stunning, with a cozy, home-like atmosphere. Kumudu and Pradeep are warm & kind people who provided us with exceptional service & made us delicious food. Three of the four bathrooms feature an open outdoor style shower & all the bedrooms have mosquito nets, which made sleeping ultra comfortable. The property is impeccably maintained, and the pool is spotless. I highly recommend this property for groups of up to 8 people.

This property is absolutely gorgeous and has a warm home feel to it. The support staff - Kumudu and Pradeep - do a fantastic job to meet all our needs. The food was delicious and left us wanting more! The beds are very comfortable. 3 out of 4 bathrooms have an open air part which is an amazing feel! The property itself is maintained very well and the pool is clean. I would definitely recommend this property for upto 8 people to stay at.

The breakfast was great. Kumudha made us different Sri Lankan dishes every day. The fruit platter, pancakes and curd and treacle were fresh and delicious

WOW! What a place! Quite a big villa with several rooms, washing machine, TV, bluetooth speaker, big kitchen and own pool. Pool was really great, you can use it anytime you want and it's 1.2m to 2m deep, excellent. Villa was very clean and spacious. You get a number to local tuktuk driver if you need to go quickly to the city/beach and he was always available. Same as a security guy leaving nearby who closes the gate for the night time and cleans the pool every morning. It was really a great experience and we 100% recommend this place.

The villa was lovely and comfortable. It was wonderful to have a pool to swim in. The pool was a lot smaller than it looked in the pictures, but that was fine for our small family, My children and I never wanted to get out. The garden is beautiful and well looked after. I liked the location, it was about a 5 minute drive to Dalawella beach where we saw sea turtles.

The greatest thing is awesome pool and cute villa. The cleaning is also very proper. We have everything that we need including washing machine with dryer, Bluetooth speaker, TV and full equipped kitchen.

Great hosts, wonderful hospitality and lovely property.

The uniqueness is the beautiful location and the spacious comfortable rooms with very clean toilet. The private pool to indulge. The food is very good and yummy. The staff is very obliging & friendly. It’s my second visit. So close to the highway entrance and so many other places to visit.

The property is a haven in Unawatuna! Situated on the beach, our beach suite had everything we could have asked for: Direct access to the private beach, jacuzzi, loungers and a private pool. The staff were amazing and Lalith and his team at La mer restaurant made our stay memorable!

The room set up with private pool and private beach access

Amazing hotel ...we had the room with the private pool which was perfect.... The food was great but above all the staff were fabulous... Cocobays biggest asset is indeed their staff who are always smiling always helpful and treat you like VIPs. Can't wait to return . Thankyou Cocobay.

Spacious room with a great private pool and view of the sea

Booked the Founder Suite - room was huge. Great size outdoor area & large private pool. Staff all attentive & friendly. Grounds really well kept

Beautiful compact property with direct access to the beach. We were a family of 8 booked into the 2 bedroom sea room and the founders suite … it was fantastic. The founders suite was value for money with the sheer size for everyone to hang out together + the private pool. The food was amazing. Every dish was delicious and the staff was friendly… Totally a wonderful experience

Beach View is an amazing hotel, Our room consisted a beautiful balcony overlooking one if the pools, gardens and the ocean. The pools and gardens are beautifully maintained and the staff are extremely helpful. Our experience at the hotel helped make a beautiful memorable holiday. We would highly recommend the hotel.

What a magical place to stay with the best sunsets. Incredible location right on the sea. Newly renovated with all rooms sea facing, so you can’t go wrong. Stunning pool overlooking the sea with pool bar and wonderful attentive service. The staff were extremely accommodating and so friendly, making my stay over my birthday super special. Breakfast is also a wonderful, generous selection. I’m well travelled with experience working in luxury hotels, and highly recommend Mosvold Villa. Don’t think twice ☺️

Very stylish and elegant property with amazing service and dedicated team. The rooms are spacious and beautifully decorated. The large pool and all the outdoor areas around it are just fantastic. The food is great - from wonderful breakfasts to delicious lunches and dinners (and they can make food that is not on the menu if you ask - we recommend crab booked in wine). The property is on the sea, which is ideal for surfers. Thank you, Villa Mosvold team, for your excellent approach (and all my beloved mango you served :))

Wonderful room, nice infinity pool and private plunge pool, friendly staff, excellent drinks.

Crystal Sands offered a beachfront view and good breakfast. The main pool had a beautiful view and the private plunge pool also provided a good option. Housekeeping was very good, especially Dileepa and Shammi. Restaurant food and drink was also good.

Beautiful oceanfront 3 BR apartment with a plunge pool. We enjoyed the rooftop dining and pool and the location had a great rural feel whilst only 10mins away from Hikkaduwa

The boys came in and cleaned the room every day, They replaced the water,cola, and soft drinks, The balcony was huge, overlooked the beach/sea and we both spent time in our plunge pool, watch the world go by and the amazing sunsets.

We had an amazing time there. The plunge pool was amazing with a beach view. It is one of the best hotel i have visited. The room service is really fast and food was scrumptious. You have everything you want in the hotel.

Once in a while, you find hidden gems that exceed expectations. Nil Ralla is such a place. Where do I start? The villa, which we had solely to ourselves, was exceptional. Comfortable, peaceful (even next to a busy road), and watching the sea from your private pool was very relaxing. Gayan and his crew of two made us feel welcome the minute we arrived. They made all our meals fresh by hand and to order. He even went out and bought us some beer and gin after a chat we had. Awesome service. The food was exceptional, and on our last night, we had a lovely candle lit fish dinner at the end of the garden by the sea. Nimali, who overseas the property, who was an excellent contact prior to our arrival, came to see us mid week to ask if all was okay. We discussed a couple of small options to make it even better, which he took on board and is acting upon. That in itself is rare and speaks volumes about all the staff just wanting you to be happy and have a good time. Spoke to one of the neighbours, who was very nice and a few others passing on the beach. Everyone is so friendly. Sri Lanka is a special place, and Nil Ralla is a perfect spot to enjoy all that the south of the island offers. I wholeheartedly recommend this villa. You will not be disappointed. We were very sad to leave. Whatever you do, take a bus ride to Galle Fort. Tickets are 25p each, and the ride is somewhat rapid in a pimped up bus. Awesome fun 👍

It is a small and cozy mini hotel. Brand new. Very clean rooms, bathroom and territory. There is a fantastic pool and sun beds. It is close to the ocean. But the most important is the staff. Very friendly and helpful, they will do everything to make you feel comfortable. Absolutely love this place and 100% we will come back.

Luxurious villa with absolute ocean front views and pool. Newly renovated with friendly staff.

Location and facilities excellent! Staff brilliant, all clean and tidy, great pool.

Looking out over beach a perfect location to relax. Pleasant helpful staff and very large room. Breakfast on lawn was a pleasure. Whilst you can not swim from the beach directly by hotel due to rock reef there are sandy bays and pools very near by

The staff are amazing at this property, they go above and beyond and are an asset. Beautiful rooms and grounds, very clean. Lovely food you must try the Sri Lankan breakfast. Only negatives, the beach is not suitable for swimming but Dalawella beach is a 1km walk which was lovely. And the building works next door were very noisy. We booked a private pool suite but we’re unable to enjoy our pool due to the construction noise. This would usually have been enough to make me leave but everything else was just perfect and more than made up for it. We will be back!

Absolutely beautiful hotel, it is more like a deluxe villa. It only has 10 rooms. From start to finish this place was magically. The food is amazing thanks to the wonderful cheif everything from local food to if you fancy a cheeky burger. The pool is stunning and it is right on the beach so you can hear the sea all the time. The beach is beautiful. Plus there is someone who comes to the hotel and can give you a massage, which was amazing! It's a 10min tuk tuk ride from the main beach. Sanjeewa really made our stay. He was so attentive and was so kind. He could sort everything from a tuk tuk to a whale trip. All the staff were amazing but only managed to catch Lakindu name. We couldnt have asked for a better holiday. Thank you to everyone at the Era Beach hotel it was the best holiday ever. We will be back one day!!

We loved our stay at Era Beach. The hotel is beautiful and well looked after. We had a sea view room which was beautiful. Bed very comfy and spacious room. The breakfast included was also really nice - fresh fruit followed by cooked breakfast. The hotel has a nice size pool which was very clean. The hotel was right on the beach but you could not lay on the sand or swim in the sea. However a short walk along if you wanted some beach and a sea swim. The food menu for lunch and dinner was also good! I would definately recommend if you are looking for a chill out hotel away from the hussle of the town - about 10 minutes tuk tuk from Unawatuna. The only downside was the road noise in the morning (but didn't really bother us). Thanks so much Era Beach for our stay!

This hotel is so beautiful and is exactly like their pictures. We've stayed in hotels all over the world and this is really something special. The staff are wonderful. They are really helpful but they also leave you alone when you want to just relax and enjoy the views. The food is top quality and everything is fresh. There are only a few guests so we always had the pool to ourselves and the beach in front is empty and beautiful. I wish I could live there!

A stunningly beautiful location just 10 minutes by tuk tuk to Galle Fortress. This boutique hotel is the perfect place to relax - staff are warm and welcoming, rooms superb and outlook over pool to Indian Ocean sheer magic. Was very hard to leave!

It's a very peaceful and quiet place. Beautiful garden, two pools and very clean rooms, hot water in the bathroom. Very comfortable beds. People working at this place are very nice, helpful and friendly. You can rent a scooter, there is as well a tuk tuk available if you want to go for example to Unawatuna Town. The owner is as well very kind and he's always ready to help you with anything or to answer your questions. We really enjoyed our stay there!

We had a wonderful time at Beach Grove. The place was beautiful! Room was spotlessly clean and breakfast was good. The owner and staff were really great and very welcoming. The villas are around 15 mins walk to the nearest beach set in a beautiful location amongst the wildlife. There are 2 pools which are great to relax after a day out in the sunshine. I would love to visit again if I ever get the opportunity. Keep up the good work!

Family five, stayed four nights, two rooms. Very pleasant. Super Sri Lanka breakfast. Great pool. Easy walk to Dalawella beach to swim with and feed turtles. Good connections to Unawatuna and Galle. Really pleased we chose Beach Grove.

We loved the size of the room, the pool was excellent and the host was friendly and welcoming. We had delicious Sri Lankan curry on our first evening too. Great aircon, fan and wifi.

Location. Set back in nature. Lots of monkeys peacocks and birds. Two clean pools. Beautiful well kept gardens. Very peaceful. Large rooms which are well equipped.

We had booked the hotel as soon as we saw the display picture of the hotel as we were blown away. The hotel didn’t let us down from its visuals. It was a lovely stay with various facilities. Loved the dinner and breakfast buffet. The food waa very good. The staff were very fast to their service despite the business. Loved the pool and the dedication of the pool staff to keep it clean and well mainted.

Beautiful large hotel with great pools and rooms. Spotlessly clean and nothing too much trouble for the staff. Special mention to the pool lifeguard who came to let us know that turtles were feeding at the beach. Very special moment!

Great rooms the photos don’t do it justice such a great view of the ocean and the pool near with the pool cafe is perfect the sunsets right there

This hotel stands out for its architectural elegance and thoughtful design. The welcome with king coconut water was a refreshing touch after arrival. The rooms are spacious, well-furnished, and equipped with excellent amenities. Its commitment to sustainability is impressive—arguably one of the best I've seen. I stayed in a sea view room, which was fantastic. It was just after the full moon—clouds moved across the sky, occasionally letting moonlight shine through. The atmosphere was serene, and I deeply enjoyed the solitude. There are two swimming pools: one ideal for families, and another 25-meter lap pool that I especially appreciated—something I’ve rarely seen in hotels. Swimming there while listening to the crashing waves and watching them break into white foam was a unique experience. The staff were warm and professional. Dinner and breakfast were both sumptuous and very well arranged, offering a wide variety. Overall, this was a memorable stay—one of the best in recent years. I definitely plan to return for a longer visit.

Stunning beachfront property in Galle, our room was in the luxury spa wing which is right next to the beach. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and our 2 kids had a wonderful time collecting shells, playing in the pools. The beach isn’t the best for swimming (unlike Hikkaduwa or similar beaches) but good enough for a quick dip or for simply relaxing. We were lucky to spot turtles every single day we were there! Rooms were spacious and brightly coloured doors / windows was a refreshing sight. The food buffets had the usual good spread but hopper counter can have a queue in the morning. Pizzas at Lorenzo were wood fried and we enjoyed it. Overall, we had a wonderful time here and would definitely plan to come back in future.

Great hotel in a fantastic location in nature but not far from the beaches. The view is amazing and palm trees with monkeys jumping around is just beautiful. The infinity pool offers nice views and and the hotel area is small. The food was excellent. The chef was very helpful in finding gluten free options and the food was delicious. Highly recommend a stop at this place.

The location is awesome. The rooms are well designed and at a high quality standard (e.g. marble tiles in the bathroom. Bidet..) Bungalow with sea view - unbeatable. The location is not directly at the beach, but at an elevated location inside a forest area. So the view is incredible and super quiet. No street noise or smoke. Instead one can enjoy nature sound, birds, butterflies, some monekys climbing the trees and sometimes leguans and view at the sea the same time.The staff is very friendly. The owners/managers are very friendly and attentively, caring about every little detail and having an open ear on any suggestions or wishes. Even after check out the owner spent time to give us suggestions and recommendation for our further trip on the island. Clear recommendation if the above said appeals. We only booked one night at the beginning, but then extended for one more night - 3 times in a row.

Absolutely stunning place! Loved everything about it, definitely need to make this your destination when visiting South Sri Lanka. From service to food to the views, you won’t be disappointed.

The hotel is set on beautiful green grounds with peacocks, kingfishers, squirrels, and other animals running about. The staff was amazing, the food was really yummy, and the long swimming pool was great to swim a few laps in. I would be very happy to visit this hotel again.

Stunning, serene location Beautiful pool and well designed rooms Delicious food and fantastic service from all staff

Off the beaten track, but so quiet and serene with just the noise of the surrounding countryside. enjoyable stay with good staff and good breakfast. The swimming pool was great and the room was very rural but clean and comfortable.

The staff here were excellent. They were very helpful, friendly, and attentive. We stayed in a Villa which was cleaned every day. The breakfasts were good. We only ate in the Restaurant twice in the evening but it was very good. We loved the wildlife, the Kingfishers, Peacocks, Lapwings, Cows and the dogs. The gardens were very well tended and the pool provided welcome relief from the heat. I had a lovely massage.

Wirdana Resport and Spa Villa is stunning with spacious villas with modern amenities with the pool area being pristine and inviting. The staff are incredibly helpful. The decor and design of the hotel is stand outs. The attention to detail and care for guests is truly commendable.

Place was quiet and calm with full nature. The room was very fancy and clean. We loved everything!! Staff was very attentive and was very fast with our requests. Food was yummy and amazing. Overall, a good place!!

We got a free upgrade because there was an issue with our room, we stayed at jetwing ligthouse and they gave us there best room. It was amazing that they arranged this for us!

It’s a great hotel with beautiful natural style setting up and design, adorable breakfast

What a wonderful view. We had the ground floor rooms that had direct access to the pool. It was like we had our own private pool. Staff were very attentive. Food was nice. Breakfast buffet was a good western style, eggs cooked as you wish. Restaurant is on the top floor wiht 200 degree views of Unawatuna. A wonderful stay.

Ett lagom stort hotell som känns som om det ligger inne i djungeln med en fantastisk utsikt. Det fanns två pooler varav en stor. Vårt rum hade utgång direkt till den stora poolen. Det enda som saknades var någonstans att torka badkläderna på, kanske en liten torkställning. Det var svårt att få dem torra. Rummet var rymligt men hala golv så man får vara försiktig. Sängen var bekväm men det fanns en ram runt om på ca 30 cm. Det såg förvisso snyggt ut men det var lite svårt att ta sig i och ur speciellt om man har ryggproblem. Personalen var trevliga och hjälpsamma. Varje kväll nattades man med en liten skål med chokladbitar som en kille gick runt och delade ut. Mycket uppskattat och ovanligt. Matsalen med takterrassen var jättefin med den fantastiska utsikten. Maten var jättegod, speciellt tonfisken. Till stranden tog det ca 10 min att gå, hem kan man ta tuktuk för då går det uppåt. Vi är jättenöjda med vår vistelse på Thawthisa och ångrar att vi inte stannade några dagar längre.

The hotel is perched above the main Unawatuna beach area - a bumpy ride up the hill. It is a modern concrete design with great views over the coast. Good - rooms have a funky design, large rooms, very bright (all white), good aircon, tv & cable, nice pool patio with lounges and chairs, great views, food was OK (new chef so will get better), very good large pool. Not so good - they have open-to-air bathrooms so no aircon, there was effectively no hot water in our room - took 10 mins to get lukewarm, floors in bathroom are very slippery when wet, lots of wear and tear in the rooms - loose taps, scraping door, gaps in plaster around fittings, flaky chair covering, room gets very light in the morning. If they kept the rooms better maintained it would be very good. If you want to hang out and relax it's not bad - we paid around US$100 for a good room as it's low season - i wouldn't want to pay much more when it's busy - if they fixed a few of the wear and tear issues it would be much better.

Do NOT listen to the negative reviews regarding this hotel. I have stayed at two other hotels in this area and was very displeased and checked out earlier. This is the only hotel that met my expectations of a 4 star hotel. It is modern, and incredibly aesthetically pleasing. The views are absolutely incredible. The food is very tasty. The staff is incredibly professional and helpful. If you are looking for a hotel on the beach, this is not the hotel. However, if you are more concerned with views, and a pool that is pleasing to the eye, this is your hotel. I really wish I would have ignored the negative reviews of this hotel, and selected this hotel from the beginning, as it is certainly more so what I am used to when I book 4 and 5 star hotels. Book this hotel, you will not regret it.

We booked three superior rooms but there was one room short for us. But the manager tried hard to solve this problem and arranged one standard room and give back the refund. Wasted some time but it was fine. The swiming pool and ocean view is awesome esp sunset at the restaurant. The best ocean view i have seen. The meals are really tasty but it takes over one hour to wait. Overall, it is quite worthy to stay. This hotel is not too far to Galle also.

Surroundings, interior and staff were absolutely amazing. Stayed in two different rooms, as the first had a problem with the toilet. Was therefore upgraded to a stunning suite with private pool. The perfect stay to relax and recharge - would highly recommend.

The property is serene and rooms are beautiful. Food was fantastic and staff was very friendly. My wife got a massage and the therapist was very good. We booked the private pool room which was perfect for couples.

We were lucky enough to stay in the brand new private Villas and we couldn’t fault our stay! The staff were all lovely and the Villa was beautiful, the private pool was a bonus luxury but we also visited the main pool a couple of times for some sun! We also ate at the restaurant a few times and loved every meal, highly recommend this resort.

We were recommended this hotel by friends who had stayed last year and it did not disappoint! All the staff were welcoming, helpful, smiley and very friendly. We were lucky enough to upgrade to two of the beautiful one bedrooms with private pool, btw the shower and shampoo provided are lush! Breakfast is cook to order and delicious, as were all the meals cooked by Tom the chef. Annabel was so helpful and recommended an excellent Surf school for beginners and a tour guide come tuk tuk & airport taxi all in one. I highly recommend staying at Panta Rei

We stayed for our honeymoon and my husband’s birthday and it had been a wonderful stay. We had a private pool villa and we had so much privacy that we loved. The staff are super friendly and very accommodating and attentive to all requests. The food is super delicious. My husband could not stop speaking and wanting the burger and I had always had a craving for the delicious banana cake. Loved how the breakfast is until 12:00 and that we did not have to rush to have breakfast. The place is near to the Instagram able places and easily can be accessed to the main areas which we loved and explored. Special thanks to the lovely Annabel and yam for decorating our room for my husband’s birthday. And our favorite lucky and esila who were so sweet we always looked for them.

The villa is beautiful, and the pool is absolutely luxurious and spotless. The setting offers fantastic peace and a gorgeous garden; every morning feels magical. The villa provides plenty of space and privacy. The grounds are excellently maintained, and guests can use all facilities (except for a washing machine). There are ample towels and dishes. There are only four sun loungers by the pool, which isn’t entirely fair. Chandima is very kind and always ready to help.

Chandima, who works at the property, is amazing. A great cook and took good care of us, including helping book transport and everything required to make the trip great. The house is big with a great pool, close to Galle and the beech, 10 / 20 minutes away by tuk tuk. The house is a little out of town, which is great as there is peace and wildlife. We found our stay to be very relaxing but with plenty of entertainment and restaurant option close enough

Wow is all i can say. The Villa was beautiful, tge pool was awesome, the views were beautiful, the host (Chandima) is a wonderful human being (who is also a greak cook), lots of wildlife and easy to get to Unawantuna and Galle.. Sri Lanka was full of highlights, this was the best accomodation.

Great villa with 4 good sized rooms, a nice pool and the manager (Chandima) was so helpful

Well, this is really a place where you feel like a millionaire. The villa has a modern design and it is good to enjoy it in several people. The pool is lit up at night and it's very romantic. The breakfasts could be bigger, to which we contributed a little with our own shopping. Galle center is about ten minutes by tuk tuk. On the way back, it is better to show the driver the navigation, because he might get lost. For my family, it was a dream vacation that just can't be experienced anywhere. The owner of the villa is European and is very accommodating. You can arrange everything with him in advance and he will accommodate you.

Beautiful villa very spacious and sparkling clean lovely house keeper - reliable and trustworthy well stocked kitchen great private pool ideal for family to explore Galle beautifully decorated

We had a memorable stay and the host is very understanding. It is recommended to have a car with you for movement to places within the city and nearby beaches which are 15-20 min away. The swimming pool is an excellent feature and well maintained.

Absolutely everything about this stunning villa! We couldn’t have asked for a better stay. The highlight of our experience was definitely Thushara, the wonderful gentleman looking after the property. He went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and well taken care of. His kindness, warmth, and exceptional customer care truly made our visit unforgettable. Thushara’s attention to detail and genuine hospitality made us feel right at home. We can’t thank him enough for making our stay so special!

The property was clean and spacious and the amenities were great.

High standard of the villa; private pool; amazing staff who put on an incredible breakfast - Amilina and Chamath were always on hand to support and guide; they were the credible; very private setting with a gorgeous garden; very clean and relaxing place.

Absolutely a peaceful, Serene, secluded location and atmosphere from the rest of the Galle experiences. Typically we go to Galle for the beach but the location is right infront of a main road but it is a true hidden peace of solitary crafted with art and craft. Everywhere you turn you have something to spot and enjoy. The plunge pool, verandah, dinning area and the bedrooms are the best. On a special note I want to thank to thank the staff for helping me to make my daughter's birthday extra special taking my instructions to arrange the breakfast table and the Kiribath clover cake. They were extremely supportive, attentive and friendly. Especially Charith was a gteat host.

The Bungalow is a must rent. Hidden away in the outskirts of Galle, it's an unique expirience. It's huge and clean and has a wonderful, upkept garden around. There are sunbeds in the garden and an outdoor shower. All rooms are equipped with AC and fans, you have a small kitchen (with a really large fridge), a huge barbeque and a washing mashine at your disposal. The biggest surplus is the pool in which you can virtually plunge out of the backdor. Additionally you have a roofed terrasse where you can enjoy the delicous meals and breakfast the host Ami is providing. You can also choose what you would like for breakfast (try it, go for the Sri Lankan option, you will not regret it!). As the host lives near by, there is a fast solution for any issues you might have. The car can be parked on the premises and hidden away from the street.

From reservation to checkout, flowless. I have never experienced such a professional and friendly team in any villa. Thank you so much, Medusa team. The villa is perfect. I didn't expect such a clean and fully equipped kitchen. Also, there is a separate cupboard full of utensils and plates etc. The garden and outdoor tables and outdoor bed is perfect. The garden is well maintained, completely natural. There were lots of birds and squirrels etc. The pool is exceptional. The caretakers leave the villa after explaining everything, so 100% privacy. The sri lankan breakfast was amazing. Bathrooms were very clean and with hot water. Easy access from express way so just about an hour away from colombo.

This accomodation was amazing. Very beautiful garden, pool and rooms. Breakfast was very good (one of the best we had in Sri Lanka) and all the stuff was super lovely. We stayed with small kids and they all loved it. It is very quiet there and peacefull. It is about 15 minutes by tuk tuk to Galle or to the beach, so the location was also convenient. We enjoyed our stay there very much. We choose it as a last relaxing place at the end of our Sri Lanka stay and it definitelly ticked all the boxes.
