There is an on-site restaurant, plus free private parking and free WiFi are available. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a sun terrace.

The place was very clean and well maintained. It was located around 10min walk from the beach, in a jungle. The only problem was very bad reception and super slow WiFi, but if you sat closer to the router it worked well. The typical breakfast of eggs, toast and fruits was included. The hosts were amazing, they upgraded our room without additional payment. What is more, they helped me when I needed charger after mine broke.

Located in Unawatuna, a few steps from Unawatuna Beach, Araliya Beach Resort & Spa Unawatuna provides accommodation with a fitness centre, free private parking, a garden and a terrace. Featuring room service, this property also provides guests with a children's playground. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk, airport transfers, a kids' club and free WiFi throughout the property.

Araliya Beach Resort & Spa is a great hotel in Sri Lanka, this was our second long stay in the resort and we plan to go back in February 2023 :) The layout, gym, resturants, bar, food and beach area is great, and the location around the hotel has nice cafés and shops.@ There is one thing we would recommend the hotel to change and that is the music by the pool during the day. It's way too loud and way to noisy - it's like crazy party/rave music and it goes on for hours. We left the pool/beach area early every day just because our heads were buzzing from the heavy music, not being able to take a nap or even have a conversation without "yelling" to each other. Spotify has alot of calm but still modern pop music, the list is called "Lounge Music." Next time we arrive we hope this change has been made :)

    One of the best hotel/resort experiences we have had as a family, made even better by the incredible staff at Thaproban. They do everything for you with no bother and are the most genuine and sincere people. My wife and I travelled with a 2.5 year old and a 10 month old and that can be stressful but thanks to the staff, we were able to relax. Keep up the great work Thaproban staff you are a credit to yourselves!

    We had a really nice stay at Galawatta Beach Resort. The location of the cabana was perfect and right next to the beach. While snorkelling we saw plenty of turtles in the water. The place itself was really beautiful and well maintained. The staff was very friendly and always helpful in everything. Especially the food was very tasty. We would highly recommend this place.

    I’ve been staying at the Galawatta Beach Resort Villa for two nights, and this was the best choice to stay in Unawatuna. Amazing palm garden and calm ocean with turtles coming to eat greens. Nice fishes to be watched while snorkelling. Lovely terrace to spend time in the evening. Charming owner of the resort gave several life hacks to make my life more comfortable.
