"We had a beautiful stay at Lara’s place! The host and his family were incredibly warm and welcoming. The accommodation is set in a stunning location overlooking the sea. We had the best night’s sleep we’ve had since arriving in Sri Lanka, and the breakfast was absolutely incredible. Highly recommend!"

"Nothing."

"Amazing hosts, in a fantastic location. Help you with any troubles & recommendations needed, from days out, to restaurants or even sorting a bike rental. The breakfast was amazing different Sri Lankan style everyday, Lara talked us through each dish & what it was & the correct way to eat. We loved our stay."

"In a great location out of the way of the main streets, with beautiful views."

"Wonderful location, high up with stunning views especially from the breakfast area. Good sized room with a wet room shower and mosquito netting. Mini fridge and kettle. Large outdoor seating area."

"Unfortunately the house next door has 2 dogs who bark loudly very early some mornings. On our last morning the accommodation ran out of water which caused a problem with showering and flushing the toilet. They delivered a large container of water to every room which helped but not ideal. Due to the location some Tuk tuks don’t want to go there and others charge a premium."

"Good breakfast with a beautiful view."

"An isolated location."

"The hotel itself is really beautiful. The dining area on the rooftop offers incredible views, and the staff are absolutely lovely. They even allowed us to take a shower after we had already checked out, before catching our transfer to the airport, which we really appreciated. The food was also quite good and varied, and the bed was very comfortable. Overall, everything was excellent."

"The only small downside is the distance from the main road to the hotel. It usually requires a tuk-tuk ride or a fairly long walk, and some tuk-tuk drivers were reluctant to go all the way up the road, so they sometimes dropped us off at the bottom and we had to walk up. Other than that, the place is excellent and I would definitely recommend it."

"All was perfect"

"Aucun."

"Its a beautiful, authentic, and quite place to stay. for me this is the perfect size of hotel (5 rooms or so) the rooms are comfortable, clean and bright. the view from the breakfast-terrace is wide open and also the breakfast is very Sri Lankan adapted for us europeans."

"I stayed only one night, for me everything was perfect the way it was."

"Stunning views. The room was comfortable with a balcony with views over Galle. The breakfast was the best we’ve had in Sri Lanka. Shower had hot water and they even provided incense to burn on the balcony to keep away the mozzies."

"Nothing. It was lovely."

"We stayed in the penthouse with an incredible view – absolutely breathtaking. We truly enjoyed our time there. The host was very kind and helpful, and everything was relaxed and uncomplicated."

"It is about a 25-minute walk to the walking street, but getting there by tuk-tuk is quick, and the view is absolutely worth it."

"We loved this beautiful stay with Lara! The staff - superfriendly, helpful and talkative! Helped us avoid some tourist traps and they were all very warm, Happy and kind. The view - stunning. The breakfast - the ”dot above the letter I” as we say in sweden, absolutely wonderful, delicious, local and with variation from day to day. The location - great, a nice walk up the hill along temples, Locals and nice greenery. Honestly - the best thing about Unawatuna and we would come back just for this hotel!"

"If There would be one thing - it would be that the power outlets were a bit dodgy and sometimes they charged our phones and kept our bed lights on - and sometimes they didnt. Not at all a big issue though - and it could easily have been our kind of shitty and cheap adapters from Sweden!"
