This was a last minute booking. On Friday morning we found out that both of us were free in the second half of the day. Looked for a place relatively closer to Colombo and made the reservation. Didnt do any research. Only knew it was run by a sister brand to Resplendent Ceylon. It started off on high note. On arrival we were welcomed by the property manager, by name, which we thought was quite a nice touch. The price point was somewhat similar to Cape Weligama where we got something akin to a suite. Compared to that the immediate reaction to the room was that it was quite small. But it was tastefully done in lovely shades of blue, had all the amenities and luxuries. Must especially mention the rain shower (the best I have seen anywhere), and the HD TV which was again of a much higher quality than many we've come across before. And the best part was that the veranda was almost on the beach with lovely views of the sunset. The perfect alternative if you are too lazy to actually get on the beach;) The next highlight was the food! The best we have ever had anywhere. (I had another favorite before, but this surpassed it;) Special mention must be made of the pastry chef. They had the softest buns and the fluffiest crossiants! But do take note that portions are quite large so you need to plan a bit if uou are ordering a four course meal. They have their own cocktail mixes which we found to be ok. They had a lovely pool which we were too lazy to use. The beach was public and small but not at crowded. The service was excellent! The check in check out process was very smooth. Servers were very efficient and the property manager kept checking on us regularly. All in all, perfect place if you want to just laze around with excellent food, service and comforts.
Lunuganga is an extraordinary and deeply personal place created by Bawa over many decades. Staying at Lunuganga allowed us to experience its potency through the day and into the late evening to better grasp its beauty, complexity and his masterful vision. It's now a few weeks since we left and I think about it constantly. It isn't like anywhere else. We stayed in Bawa's bedroom with outdoor bathing courtyard, which for us was worth the additional cost. The staff were so very thoughtful and attentive - it could not have been a better stay. Thank you to the Lunuganga Trust and Teardrop Hotels for taking such good care of this unique piece of Sri Lankan architectural heritage. You've adapted it elegantly to allow it to be used successfully as a small hotel which we hope will ensure access to Lunuganga for decades to come. I will of course recommend it to anyone with an interest in C20 art, architecture and landscape - make this pilgrimage.
ゲゲストNice hotel in a great location. The service was also great, but there was a minor miscommunication regarding transport to the airport - my recommendation would be to try and confirm with other guests not the hotel whether they would like to share a taxi to the airport
Let me start off by saying that the staff are so friendly and welcoming. Lakshan made the reservation promptly sharing every single detail on the types of rooms etc . Was greeted by the lovely and kind front office staff Malki, Pabasara & Chapa. They promptly attended to our check-in process and showed our rooms. The rooms were so spacious and absolutely cozy! Kudos to the team that curated the rooms and made the decision to have all the convenient amenities! An ideal place to relax and have a great time!
FFred ConcklinWonderful place with a lush garden in Unawatuna area in the main tourist road. They let us for an early checkin so we didn’t have to wait in the lobby area. Room was spacious with modern furniture and included a minibar. Air conditioner worked perfectly. Bed was comfy. Bathroom was spacious. Hot water worked perfectly. Modern fixtures too. Green villa was close to all the main attractions. Highly recommended for a calm, quiet, comfortable stay in Unawatuna area.
Da unsere geplante Unterkunft kurzfristig doch nicht in Frage kam, fanden wir über *********** auf das Cozy Sea View Inn und ließen uns dort von unserem TukTukfahrer absetzten. Wir wurden herzlich empfangen und konnten uns nach zwei besichtigten Zimmern für eines entscheiden. Wir entschieden uns für eines im Erdgeschoss mit kleiner Terasse. Das Zimmer war sehr geräumig, sauber, gut ausgestattet und roch sehr gut. Direkt neben unserem Zimmer befand sich ein Fitnessstudio, welches von den Hotelgästen mitbenutzt werden kann. Wir nahmen dies nicht in Anspruch, fanden die Möglichkeit dennoch toll. Der Manager Rajesh war sehr freundlich und bemüht. Als er mitbekam, dass wir weiter nach Unawatuna reisen wollen, bot uns, da einer seiner Fahrer sowieso in die Richtung müsse, uns mitzunehmen. Auch die Lage des Hotels, in einer Seitenstraße zur Hauptstraße war für uns optimal. Der Strand war in wenigen Gehminuten zu erreichen, als auch eine Riesen Auswahl an Restaurants und anderen Eibkaufsmöglichkeiten. Wir waren wirklich sehr froh über unseren spontanen Glücksgriff und kommen gerne wieder.
ゲゲストThe owner, Anu, is incredibly friendly and always ready to help, even late at night. His wife prepared delicious breakfasts and kept the rooms spotless. The colonial-style guesthouse was a wonderful place to relax, especially on the veranda in the evenings. I recommend choosing rooms on the second floor, as the first floor lacks proper windows and has poor sound insulation. Also, be prepared for cold showers on rainy or cloudy days, as the water is heated by the sun. In the future, it would be great to maintain the current visual style while adding small details to the rooms, such as shelves, lamps, plants, or chairs if possible. Overall, this guesthouse is a great budget option for a visit to Sri Lanka. Thank you, Anu, and I hope to return someday!
SSvetlana DolcevitaВ июле 2024 я провела в этом отеле несколько дней. В целом мне всё понравилось, за исключением некоторых моментов.
Начну с хорошего: отличное расположение, напротив супермаркет, а рядом множество магазинчиков и лавочек, шикарный вид из окна на океан, достойные завтраки, чистый бассейн, готовность сотрудников в любой момент прийти на помощь, вкусные блюда на заказ по меню, ухоженная территория.
Что не понравилось: номера уставшие уже, требуется обновление, я жила в 513 номере. Бассейн работает до 19.00, что совершенно не удобно, так как после ужина хочется тоже активности.., а её нет)
