We thoroughly enjoyed our week long stay at Hotel Panorama. The bungalow was clean and spacious and the staff were very accommodating and friendly. The gardens and views looking down over the bay are gorgeous. But like all views from such a vantage point, has a hill to climb however this was not a problem and when we were being lazy, we just rung the bell at the gates and the staff drove the tuk tuk down to take us up. Breakfast: fruit, eggs etc, toast, tea or coffee and of course the Sri Lankan breakfast which I highly recommend. Lots of animals including monkeys and birds too see and of course, not forgetting the resident tortoises 😊 A lovely place to stay and I'd like to thank the staff for their kindness and hospitality

Hands down the best hotel ever! Honestly super luxurious, accommodating and very airy. The hotel and its beautiful gardens are well maintained. The rooms are huge and super spacious. We were lucky enough to have a room with a breathtaking view which was super clean. Staff are very friendly and attentive to your needs. The breakfast and dinner buffets were a 10/10. Aslam was very friendly and made sure we were happy with our stay and service. A further shout out to Nanayakkara, Lakmini, chamasha and Kavishka for their hard work and dedication to ensuring guests are satisfied with their stay.
The Villa Baywatch is a very small hotel set in the most spectacular gardens. The rooms are spacious and very comfortable and an ensuite with shower. They are equipped with tea & coffee making facilities and a fridge. The area is very quiet, a short walk to Jungle Beach and a tuktuk ride to Unawatatuna. There is also a small but essential swimming pool. The staff are lovely and the breakfast is excellent. There's a very small restaurant close by, Speak to Anushka for tuktuk rides. We had a great time and thoroughly enjoyed our stay there. This is somewhere I'll remember for all the right reasons.
In addition to the food and beverages, the service is relatively friendly and it is really bad. The hotel does not have a beach and there are reefs outside, and the swimming pool is small. The room facilities are ordinary and the soundproofing is poor, which affects the rest. The mountain road that came to scratched the car and was in a bad mood.
I can't recommend this place highly enough. Spotlessly clean, comfortable rooms, effective aircon & good WiFi. Superb location for the beach and all the shops and restaurants in Unawatuna. The family that run the guest house go above and beyond the call of duty to ensure the guests enjoy their stay. Nothing is too much trouble for them and the Sri Lankan breakfast is an absolute delight. Complimentary tea and biscuits on arrival and complimentary tea, pancakes and home made Christmas cake on Christmas day. Lovely, genuine people who want you to enjoy your stay.
Currently staying in Villa Gaetano this place is amazing.. Situated a short distance inland the location is perfect.. The family offer a complimentary tuk tuk service to Unawatuna and it is only 300 rps to get back.. The family who own the villa are lovely people and cannot help with your needs enough.. Food is delicious ( they even let my wife watch as part of a cooking demo) and delivered to your table outside your room.. I asked for a Scooter so we could get around.. They organised it.. In fact nothing was too much trouble. We stayed in the deluxe room option and it was ideal.. Please if you are looking to enhance your Sri Lankan experience give this place a visit you will not be disappointed.. We were only staying for 2 nights originally but extended as we are enjoying it so much.. Well done to the owners if I could give it more than 5 stars I would..
Firstly this probably merits 3.5 out of 5. The reason is I felt quite disappointed when we arrived, having booked directly with the hotel and asking for “Superior” rooms which bear no resemblance to the Superior ones shown on the well-known booking site. I initially thought we’d been given the wrong rooms and had to double check with reception . We had two rooms which at $96 per night were the most expensive of our trip. We don’t normally spend a lot on hotels so this was meant to be a treat at the end of a long tour. These rooms were pretty basic, smelt quite musty as they were built in to the rock face, had many steps to reach and the sofa in one room was torn. The mosquito net had several holes in it. I understand that Sri Lanka has had a rough time recently but to charge these kind of prices, especially in the low season is not really justifiable. The hotel really needs a good returb, and I noticed that the rooms below ours were being updated during our stay. Plus points were the staff - absolutely amazing, helpful and polite and the food which was delicious- try the fresh fish/seafood plates. Also it was really difficult to find! Put up a sign board! The hotel has some way to go before it can be accurately described as a “luxury boutique hotel”. Overpriced.
My review, of course, will not be about this hotel, but about the hotel of this chain, Thaproban Pavilion Resort & Spa. We booked a room at the Thaproban Beach House Hotel, when we came to check in, it turned out that our reservation at this place was missing, and we had a reservation at the Thaproban Pavilion Resort & Spa. Thanks to the Trip.com team for helping us understand and resolve issues. And the Thaproban Pavilion Resort & Spa turned out to be much better than the Thaproban Beach House. True, it is not on the beach, but the beach is 5-7 minutes away. The hotel is super, all the amenities, large rooms overlooking the ocean. Very tasty breakfasts, 2 swimming pools on site, one with salt water. In general, I highly recommend the hotel. We really liked it. And we never regretted that we moved into it.

Outstanding
Llaurama_81456Big loft with kitchen, amazing huge terrace to watch the sunset from. View on Unawatuna coast. In the jungle, a bit far from the center and the sea (10’ walk) but totally worth it. Keerthi and sujeewa are the nicest people we’ve met in Sri-Lanka (and all Sri-Lankans are very nice!), very helpful with everything and breakfast was delicious. Everything perfect, but if you are afraid of squirrels or open spaces in the jungle maybe you’d better stay by the seaside. If you love nature, want to wake up with birds singing, that’s the best place you can go in Unawatuna!! So sad to leave..
AAvinia Naidu Gayan and his team were amazing. I’ve not had such homely service like this before in all my travels!
They all went above and beyond to cater to all my needs and questions.
The breakfast spread was vast and memorable, days after leaving its still all I think about! The room was spacious enough for me, though, do note noise from the road could be a hindrance to super light sleepers. I’d advise you have a room not close to the road.
The hotel is serene and calm, giving of a relaxed and natural vibe in a bustling area. The change is welcomed after a long day out on the beach with people.
10/10 would return!
TTINGTINGThe hotel is small, it is a pair of father and daughter operating, there are only six or seven rooms, but the hotels along the road are almost the same. The room is large, the bath is large, and all the supplies are available. You can ask the little brother to have a hairdryer. Can't swipe, want cash. The hotel does not have a swimming pool. The beach in front of the hotel has a good ecological protection. Small crabs and hermit crabs can be caught everywhere. There are no rubbish on the beach. Foreigners are seen along the road. The water is fine and the photos are beautiful. There are many big crabs crawling up and down on the reef, and small fish swimming in the pool. The breakfast at the hotel is very expensive, the bread is a lot, it can't be eaten and wasted.
