Couldn’t have wished for a better place to stay! The morning of checkin, my partner put his back out and was as bed-bound for almost a week while it healed. We ended up extending our stay to almost two weeks to allow him time to get better and we’re so thankful we were checking into such a lovely hotel when this happened!
Our room (studio with terrace) was massive, the pictures don’t do it justice at all, beautiful big windows/doors with a lovely view of the garden letting in loads of light (but with big proper curtains for privacy if you want it) A comfy sofa and arm chair, dining table, kitchen with huge fridge and ample cooking facilities, lovely bathroom. The mattress was probably the best we’ve ever slept on in a hotel, so comfy, great pillows too. The AC was amazing and room very well insulated, we could turn the AC off all day while we were out and we’d come back to a room still cool. Plus the room was super clean and considering we were on the ground floor we were surprise we didn’t have any ants or bugs at all in the room. Lovely big pool that’s cleaned & maintained several times a week by a pool professional, big comfy, padded sun loungers. Tasty and varied breakfast menu - because we were there so long we tried everything on the menu and it’s all delicious and served fresh to order. Proper good French press coffee! Everyone who works there is happy and helpful and full of smiles and you can tell it’s a family run place. FREE water refills were a life saver! Two very cute cats owned by the family were also a joy to play with.
Some might fear the location is a little out of town but it’s a short 10 minute walk down the hill and you’re at the beach or in town, and there are a number of restaurants just around the corner from the hotel anyway as well as a small local shop selling snacks and drinks for a very reasonable price. Also, there are loads of options on Uber eats that deliver to the hotel if you want a chilled night in.

I've been to Unawatuna 4 times/years and that beautiful place changes for worse.
There is new oversized monster-hotel, water scooters, loud music, fireworks, higher prices...
In last 2 years 90% of tourists are Russians - some restaurants are only in russian.
Most likely, I am not going back.

Unawatuna beach has beautiful water and golden sand.
Unawatuna beach has beautiful water and golden sand. The part of the beach where I visited, the ocean gets quite deep very fast, and the waves seem to cary you in quite easily. I haven't seen any lifeguards or flags that would indicate the wave's condition, but local people were very kind to give information.
If you like hiking, the city has a nice trail to a beach called Jungle beach. Trough the same trail, you can pass by the Japanese Peace Pagoda, and if you are lucky you might see monkeys and lizards. The trail is more or less 40 min one way.
The restaurants from the hotels are very much on the coast, sometimes seems to close from the beach. But the food quality is good and affordable, and lots of these restaurants offer alcohol.
I stayed one day in Unawatuna and it felt enough time to discover what the city has to offer.

Its a great beach, much busier than it used to be.
Some great places to eat, generally inland a bit so do some research.
Perfect place if you want a 15min trip into Galle which is a must.

I heard that this used to be a great beach.
I heard that this used to be a great beach. Unfortunately I do not think it is today. Very exploited and there are many beach places renting out sunbeds. They can get away with having (very) crappy toilets because there are new tourists every day, they do not need a good review.
Having dinner on the beach was a strange experience, started out good but then a large company came and occupied the space next to us, ordering champagne, oysters and lobsters like there was no tomorrow, and we were forgotten about.
There are plenty of other beaches in Sri Lanka that are much better.
Sri Lankan people are extremely nice but sometimes people forget to write about a property and just rate by how good people are. this is an amazing place for the price! clean room, good bathroom, a closet, and AC. definitely get the room with the AC. Sheets are clean and not smelly, which was super impressed to me. the owners are such nice people - it was such a pleasure to stay with them. breakfasts are amazing and Wasanda does great laundry! everything was clean and she even ironed my clothes. highly highly recommend you staying here.
It is a safe island in the busy, bustling Sri Lankan beach Unawatuna. Hillside location, but a lovely tuk-tuk service taking you up for free of charge. Lovely Lady from Switzerland runs this gem. We stayed in a bungallow, it was nice sitting on the balcony, swimming in the pool, having a nice shower, sleeping in the comfy bed. The breakfast was very good in size and taste also. This is a place what you should not miss when in Unawatuna. Thanks for the hospitality and the nice days we spent with you in Panorama!
I recently had an amazing hotel stay at Serenity Boutique - Unawatuna in Sri Lanka. The hospitality was exceptional, and the staff went above and beyond to make my experience memorable. The room was spacious, clean, and offered breathtaking views of the surroundings. The on-site dining was a culinary delight, featuring a variety of delicious local dishes. The hotel’s attention to detail and commitment to guest satisfaction truly made my stay unforgettable. I highly recommend it for anyone visiting Sri Lanka.
The location of this hotel cannot be beaten. We had a great two nights staying at this hotel, finding it incredible relaxing and the perfect place to end our holiday. Rooms were large with all the amenities you require, there is a restaurant that serves delicious meals, and turtles swimming in the sea which you can see from the hotel. We particularly enjoyed watching the turtles as the sun was setting with a sun downer!
I liked the location in the center of Unawatuna close to the beach and the nice view on the rocks and on the trees. I liked nice and big mirrors, one in the room and another one in the bathroom. Very comfortable and hot shower, large comfortable bed and also large balcony. Also I liked very stylish cafe downstairs with the best coffee in Sri Lanka Lavazza. Also the wifi signal was good that is such important to me.
Basic accommodation very near the beach with the nicest family you will meet in Sri Lanka.
This is backpacking as it used to be.
The garden is full of wildlife .. I lost count of the species of birds ... Mongoose and Monkeys visit often
The family will go out of their way to make your stay as enjoyable as possible
This is not 5 star .. it is basic ... but the family are 5 star ... including their pet cow
Dandelion was a great guesthouse! The room was big and the owner was always extremely helpful, breakfast was also delicious each morning. We got the Sri Lankan option and loved it. It was about 10min walk to the beach which was fine and the walk was also very nice. the owner also had a generator which came in handy since we were working remotely and there were lots of power cuts in that time period.
Nice clean room with a/c, and balcony with nice view to the bay next to a small pagoda. Hostess was very welcoming and cooked nice breakfast. You can ask for english toast and eggs or sri lankan with coconut sambol, and fresh mangos from the garden. The hilltop location is a small climb, but the view and peacefulness is worth it. Beach is very near, but not too near so it's not noisy in the night.
The location was great and really made for leisure. Had a nice selection of antiques which were well arranged, to go with the architectural design of the place. The place was calming, quiet and relaxing. There were two caretakers and both of them were really helpful and friendly. We had Sri Lankan meals for dinner and breakfast, both the meals were served warm and delicious.
Good value for money and absolutely lovely staff with good Sri Lankan breakfast. Huge room and shower. Garden is still being built, so not yet usable. The Beach at this spot is a thin strip, but walking either left/right for a few hundred meters leads you to other beaches. Hearing the waves at night was nice, there's no A/C a but two strong fans.
Villa 73 Unawatuna was our best hotel in Sri Lanka. It was a spacious and clean and equipped room. We received a delicious and plentiful breakfast. They taught me how to make roti and coconut sambol. The host and staff were extremely polite. They helped us with everything. They are lovely team! I recommend to everyone.
The hotel garden is exceptinal. I believe they are the best one in Unawatuna. The breakfast is beyond expectations. Pool is lovely for the familys, we prefer to swim in the sea. They have a private beach but maybe it may be season effect, the sea was so wavy. There are good beaches reachable by tuk tuk.
The friendly and efficient staff, the room balcony view , sunset view on Unawatuna Beach.
The clean spacious room with good A/C.
the breakfast all the fresh fruit platter, and the sri lankan omelette, fresh mix fruit juice.
The 10min walking distance from the beach of Unawatuna.
The hotel was fantastic . Comfortable bed, a couple of bedside tables with bedside lamps, an open wardrobe with hangers and a quiet A/C and a fan. Shower with hot water. The location of the hotel is great! 5 min walking from Unawatuna beach. nice management very helpful.
Staff are amazing, very kind an generous.
The place designed beautifully, nature vibes.
The massage was very good and dinner and breakfast delicious! We spent 2 nights, wish to spend more!
really, the best hotel in Sri Lanka
Definitely will come back!
Hotel in a great location on the coast on the outskirts of Unawatuna - also on the way to Jungle beach - good snorkelling there if you head out to the left . We ate in both nights and were very happy with the food . The staff were very good.
Our room was very spacious and the view of the ocean from the balcony was incredible, definitely worth paying extra for. The pool area and garden was nice. Food was excellent, especially the Sri Lankan curry, the portion was massive as well.
Easy access to property. Location is very convient and walking distance to Unawatuna beach and resturants.
Villa is very clean and tidy. It is surounded by a big garden. Very calm and quite. Hots is very friendly.
We had a very nice stay. The propery is unique and picturesque. The host was very helpful and arranged a perfect vegetarian breakfast for us. Must book when in unawatuna.
Cozy jungle cottage right in the heart of town. It was walkable to everything you need, and the staff was very helpful. It was our favorite stay in Sri Lanka
