Just a 15-minute walk from Bonavista Beach and one mile from Jungle Beach, Turtle Lamp features accommodations in Unawatuna, with a garden.

In addition to beautiful terrace, it was a private big kitchen with all furniture attached to the room. It was also a washing machine available in the room. The owner was very friendly, polite and supportive. The local breakfast was very delicious. The fresh juice prepared from the properties' garden was awesome. The room was in the first floor with some steps that was not a problem for us. The path to the villa and the villa`s yard were very beautiful.

Just a 6-minute walk from Mihiripenna Beach and half a mile from Dalawella Beach, De Fancy House features accommodations in Unawatuna, with a garden.

Lovely place to stay! The host family is very nice. Our room was clean and it had a very good quality mosquito net. The bathroom was very spacious. Even though the room didn’t have A/C the fan kept it cool enough to sleep. They also have meals available, we had dinner for only $4 USD per person. Wifi worked great most of the time.

Featuring mountain views, Diwanka Villa in Unawatuna features accommodations, a garden, and a terrace. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking, and free Wifi.

I can most enthusiastically recommend any traveler to stay here. As I sit on the peaceful balcony listening to the various birds sing while gazing out upon the lush green forest I'm filled with such gratitude for having chosen Diwanka Villa for my stay in unawatuna. The family that owns and runs this charming little oasis are fantastic hosts. Always so kind and helpful. Momma of the house is available to cook you a wonderful meal at a most reasonable price while dinesh always with a big generous smile for his honored guests is ever ready with his tuk tuk to assist in whatever needs arranging. The home is kept spotlessly clean with constant loving attention from the mother. My stay here became extended after a bad scooter crash on the main road. Broken collar bone and significant wounds from the road rash. Dinesh and his wife kumudu have been beyond amazing assisting in my healing. Lovingly applying medication to my wounds. Constantly checking on my condition and offering uplifting encouragement when Im feeling so down. Truly if the accident had to happen, im so very lucky that I was living here at Diwanka instead of a hotel when it did. Any traveler would be fortunate to stay with this beautiful family for a few days during thier stay in unawatuna. The location is down a quiet road. A pleasant 15 minute walk amongst the vibrant lush green landscape to the beach nearby. In the other direction 25 minute walk to the magic of Yatagala temple. The blessings of Diwanka Villa and the love of this wonderful family have made what's been a difficult experience with my injuries, still feel like a Gift. Thank you!!!

    Very spacious room, nice bathroom with extra towels for the swimming pool, mini kitchen with fridge, balcony with great view. Breakfast was excellent, the owner and the staff very friendly and helpful. Great location, very quiet but only 10 mins away from the beach and the city centre. I would definitely recommend this property.

    Nil is a great host. Friendly, generous and always there when you need help. He also makes great breakfast! The butterfly jewel is located on a quiet street, but still just a few minute walk to the beach and buzz of Unawatuna. We truly enjoyed the house porch and outdoor kitchen where we could relax with a cup of tea in the shade.

    Great location, incredible ocean view. Nearby there is a grocery store, a cafe, a beach with turtles. You can also drive 10-15 minutes to the main beach. Friendly host, checked us in earlier than the marked time and helped with any questions. Breakfast was always fresh fruit, smoothies/coconut and scrambled eggs/sandwiches.
