Along the Southern coast of Sri Lanka sits the luxurious Era Beach, offering stunning natural beaches and an outdoor pool. Free Wi-Fi and free parking can be enjoyed on-site.

This hotel is a little oasis tucked away among numerous hotels lined next to each other by the ocean. When I was there the ocean was extremely high making it impossible to jostle on the beach. The hotel room I had was outstandingly beautiful, all the furniture was well appointed. The food needs improvement and refinement. Most of the food was overly salted. I tried breakfast lunch and dinners. The service was friendly and the property was quite empty. The pools, the yards, were perfectly manicured and kept so beautiful. It is right outside the road yet you feel like you are in your own little heaven. There is a bar and a restaurant, all without AC and terribly humid and hot. The AC in the rooms work really good. I loved this place and hope to return

Villa Amma Erna welcomes its guests with an outdoor pool and free internet access. It features contemporary interiors and stylish fan-cooled guestrooms.

The food (a truly delectable brunch with locally sourced ingredients), the location (peaceful, surrounded by nature and greenery), the architecture (tasteful Béton brut with Tropical Modernism) and Anne’s hospitality!

Niyagama House is a peaceful retreat located on the highest point of an active tea plantation. It features 7 exquisite rooms with poster beds, a luxurious bathroom and free Wi-Fi.

the peace and quiet I cannot thank Elke (the owner) enough for making my stay amazing .. she is the heart and soul of that place very caring and attentive and supportive in every way possible .. the place is a slice of heaven on earth in the middle of a very calming environment … open space with a magical view .. you are part of nature in a peaceful and beautiful way .. you wake up to the sounds of the birds and beautiful rays of sunlight … I had the most relaxing sleep of my life there .. the breakfast and the food there was soooooo tasty .. my morning yoga and meditation sessions are the perfect way to start the day … I stayed for 8 nights and was so recharged by the time I left xx I loved everything about the place … I had nicely decorated beautiful room with its own theme every room there comes with its own vibe... I was so in love with their bedtime ritual when someone comes to prepare your room for you to go to sleep it felt lovely and like a very cozy addition... I can’t put into words how happy I was there and for sure I’ll come back to visit and recommend it to anyone who wants to detox and disconnect that’s the place for you .. love you Ilka and thank you for everything you’ve done to make my time there super special and for all the lovely staff at the property .. this was the perfect getaway ❤️🌹

Roman Beach offers spacious air-conditioned rooms with free Wi-Fi, high ceilings and views of the sea. Located on Hikkaduwa Beach, it presents an outdoor pool and a private beachfront.

The best thing about the property is all the staff! They can’t do enough for you. Thanks to Kolani, Varna, Suppon, Ashit, & Sugath and the others that I didn’t get their names. Suppon made a lovely meal for me on my last night, thank you again. Breakfast is a feast & plentiful, it’s Al la Carte which I like but I couldn’t have all 3 courses! The pool is really well kept and looks into the beach. The location is ideal if you don’t want be central as it’s an easy walk along the beach.

    Perfect little boutique hotel, would go again anytime. The food is great (one of the highlights of our stay). In Sri Lanka they usualy don´t know how to make a good coctail, only in Satin Doll the DO! Try their Pina Colada:) There is beautiful garden with small but nice swimming pool and plenty of trees to provide shade on a hot day. Only 20 minutes from Galle with lovely shops and cafés.
