I wish they served dinner dishes.

Amazing place on a beautiful beach. Good breakfast.

This is literally a little paradise at a lonely beach! We really enjoyed staying there. The room was comfy and the staff very friendly! The only downside was that you weren’t able to swim in the sea due to very strong waves and currents.

Perfect spot wish a wonderful location right in front of the beach and the lagune. Our room at the middle level in the main building had a great view and a cool breeze. There were kayaks (sit-on-top) to use in the lagune for free. At sunset you could see (a few hundred meters east) the tiny baby turtles being releasef from their nests and strugling to reach the sea. The staff were pleasent and very friendly.

The bathroom is a bit dated, and there's no mesh behind the louvres, so you can get insects (and frogs!) coming into your room.

This was my second visit here and it was as good as the last time. Excellent location and the perfect place to relax for a few days. There's kayaking and swimming if you want to be more active (though you need to take care with the strong waves) or you can relax in the hammock or on your balcony. There are a few restaurants walking distance away if you want to try something different. You're far from shops in Tangalle town though so bring enough cash.

Location, quietness , nature

Not a single thing.

Easily the best accommodation we have had on our one month long trip through the island. Incredibly friendly staff, amazing affordable local food optiones (that you can even pre-order so it's ready at a certain time) situated right by the ocean and next to a huge lagoon (that you can also swim in and explore with their kayaks for free). The rooms are clean, spacious and with a great view. After staying for 2 nights we came back for an additional 2 nights at the end of our trip since we like it so much. Especially at that price, there is probably no other resort nearby that can top this place in my opinion.

The frogs coming into the bathroom!

A lovely quiet remote place to stay. So peaceful and relaxing. Excellent value for money. The accommodation is quite basic but fits with the setting. The staff were amazing and so helpful. Really appreciated the pots of tea that were brought to us on the terrace!

Location is next to a not so crowded beach area and possibility to explore the indoor waters with a canoe. Breakfast is available against additional costs. Check in was very smooth.

The mattress was a little hard. It wasn’t much of a problem for two nights, but might be an issue for a longer stay. Also it might be that little frogs and geckos get into the room through little slits at the windows.

The view from the balcony is just stunning on the ocean and the mangrove. Sitting on the balcony at evenings, hearing the ocean, is an absolutely lovely experience. The room is clean and the staff really friendly. The food served at the hotel varies and is always really good. The beach around the hotel is really amazing. Nearby, different cafes, restaurants and spas are available.

Perfect place to get away from the hustle bustle of tourist towns like Mirissa or Hikkaduwa.

Not possible to swim (rocks, currents), you have to go further. We could not use their kayaks because paddles were broken and they did not care to fix them. You have to use tuktuk on dusty road to get there.

Really quiet place, beach view, spacious. Surrounded by nature. Outside of town, which is both - pro and con :-)

Nothing, everything was excellent.

Outstanding view which was right on the beach, close to motor scooter rental, polite hosts who really looked after us. Happy smiling faces, comfortable rooms. The facility was well maintained and had a lovely covered outdoor area for meals.

AMAZING - I love this place I travelled on a budget for 4 months, and this place was absoulutely fantastic! Next to a beautiful lonely beach, amazing host, great food, sometimes he even fished a fresh fish for me Nice Restaurant, good atmosphere, and free Kajak , beautiful kayaking in the lagoon with a lot of mangroves, birrds,... GREAT!

Stayed in March 2023

The rooms are outdated. Mattress quite hard. Fan in room, no AC, we just had one blanket tho which was a bit tricky

Location is a dream. Right on the beach ,just a few steps to the ocean. We didnt see turtles at night but saw their tracks in the sand. You can canoe the nearby lagoon. Food was freshly made, sri lankan style. Very nice and the staff is amazing

Due to there not being enough guests the restaurant was sadly closed. There's only breakfast available which is toast, jam and fruit. But there are two restaurants at the two high end resorts either side. And for better and cheaper Sri Lankan food, including local breakfast you can walk 15mins along the beach to the Peacock Family Homestay.

I loved the location on this quiet beach miles from the busy touristy areas. I was in the building with three floors and had the top floor. Other people have said the room is basic but I didn't think so. For a beachside property I think it was perfect. There's a wardrobe, table and chair and a place to put your bags on. And the fan was adequate to keep me cool at night. Although the views of the sea were mostly obscured by the coconut palms from the top florr it was still really beautiful and there was a great balcony with comfy lounge chairs, and it was also nice to have a hammock to relax in as well. The staff were really friendly and helpful and made me feel really welcome. The property is right next to a lagoon where you can borrow kayaks for no cost. There are lots of water monitors, and you can see lots of birds and langur monkeys in the mangroves if your go a bit further down. Finally, the sea can be quite rough (I got thrown around in the waves) but if you time your entry properly to avoid the big crashing waves it's really lovely and warm. I'll be coming back for sure.

The place does not have - like the neighboring resorts, which cost aprox. triple - beach chairs etc. which are directly on the beach -somethings that I didn't miss.

Lonely Beach Resort was really beautiful. I stayed a total of 12 days, residing in the top floor room with a beautiful view through palm trees to the beach. The balcony is very spacious, great for yoga or chilling out in the 2 lounge chairs. The room itself is not 40m2 however including the terrace it is. I preferred this place to the frontline beach bungalows of other places, because it's moire protected from the wind and it's still only 150 meters until you can dive into the Ocean. What's great about the area is that there are kind of pools between the shoreline and some rocks further outside, where you even children can safely bathe. The sea can be rough otherwise. If you're used to waves and can swim ok, I found it no problem to go swim. 200m away there are no more rocks and you can swim until Antactica. The beach is amazing, it goes on forever. It's possible to walk toward town, which will take you maybe 30 minutes. Breakfast was great, especially the fruit, which was lovingly selected, ripe and tasty. There is no lunch and dinner served, however there are 3 restaurants next door and other options a bit further down the beach. Wifi comes through a 4G router - like everywhere - and works surprisingly well. Staff was very friendly and extremely helpful in all regards. I really felt at home. When I arrived on December 21st there were hardly any tourists on the beach, after Christmas it picked up a bit and still, it's super quiet around here. Everybody is glad that tourists are coming back. I felt completely safe and despite inflation and some shortages - like a rationing of gasoline, which does not apply to foreigners - everything you need for a nice beach vacation is available.

It might need a more detailed cleaning. The window frames were dusty and had geko poop. And the mosquito net smelled dusty aswell.

Excellent location. Couldn't ask for more. It was nice well maintained and the price was really good compared to the neighboring hotels. The food was good and it wasn't too expensive.

We really enjoyed our stay at this hotel. The host were very friendly an the location was right at the beach. You can also rent a kanu for free, I really recommend that!

It was amazing! So cheap and so comfortable - so the price is definitely worth it. The kitchen there has opened just a few days ago before we arrived and it was so delicious!! Everything we ate was great and the service so friendly.

Stayed in January 2022

There was no internet connection, because all around was closed, and our hotel was opened just for us, but at all - it was amazing to spend a week and get such detox and retreat without almost any contact with other world :)

We were second time there, and tried to book exactly this hotel because last time it was amazing. This time - it also was perfect, all other hotels in area were closed, but owner opened it for us, so we were only tourists there. Even more, there was no place to eat, but hotel owner arranged for us one local restaurant where we had delicious dinner specially for us several times. Will definitely came back again in our future trips!
