Nestled in a tranquil area of Embilipitiya town, Pavana Resort is a convenient 5-minute walk from Embilipitiya General Hospital and the nearest bus depot. It features an outdoor swimming pool, 24-hour room service and complimentary WiFi access.

The bathroom that separates the shower area from the toilet! This was the only place where we didn’t have to wipe up the toilet seat after taking a shower in Sri Lanka. The hot shower, cooling a/c, clean bed linens and towels,,things that are standard in the western countries are not always the case in Sri Lanka, so this was really a nice experience. The staff were really nice as well.

I had a wonderful stay in a lovely little bungalow overlooking the river from where I was even able to see some monkeys. The property is just beautiful, a little calm and peaceful oasis. It is a bit remote, but that was okay because everything in terms of food was provided at the property. Everyone working at the hotel is incredibly welcoming and attentive to all possible needs. The breakfast was probably the best one I had in Sri Lanka so far. I booked my Safari through them and had a great experience.

I only have good things to say about the owner and his family hospitality. Amazing food great safary (despite we struggle for a while with the mud in the path). Room was very clean and confortable. He even prepared us coffee at 5 am! Value for the money 10/10. ☺️

Guest rooms at the inn come with a seating area. Thought Blooming features certain units that feature a balcony, and all rooms come with a private bathroom with a bidet and free toiletries. The units at the accommodation include air conditioning and a desk.

The place is really nice, we had the room upstairs with our own little balcony looking right into nature. The room and bath are clean and cozy and there’s a/c. The family hosting us are super nice and helpful people. The breakfast was really nice. We did a safari with them, which was also very nice and they organized everything. The place itself is a little bit outside, therefore very quiet and surrounded by nature. We really recommend the place, the family really makes you feel like being at home.

    It’s an oasis of peace and serenidity in a otherwise very busy town. It’s hard to believe it’s so close to the main road yet so quiet. The manger of the place is very nice and helpful. He has managed to organise a fantastic last minute safari for us with a delicious takeaway breakfast. Would recommend this place to anyone.

    Worst hotel. Drunk people are running every where. Lots of sounds in wedding halls even in the night. This is very cheap hotel with cheap people.
