The staff we so friendly and accommodating, the location was fab, in our own little paradise but can still get a tuktuk to places, food was delicious at the resort, private beach which was completely unspoilt and so beautiful, the pool was amazing. Just such a great place to relax and enjoy natural beauty of sri lanka. Can't recommend this resort enough and would definitely come back!!

The location is stunning. The beach is beautful. The staff are great with their service.. The food delicious.. The ethos of the hotel that the owner Barbara has implemented towards the environment alot of hotels could introduce, no plastic water bottles, you just fill a glass bottle as often as you want from the restaurant or bar.

Small boutique hotel . Small number of rooms which are of a very high quality and good pool and ocean views . Pool lovely and relaxing . Right on beach . Long stretch of golden sandy beach . Can help the fishermen bring in nets in am ( a good workout ) . Nice beach bar and good quality food . Staff incredibly helpful and polite . This all runs so well due to the owner Barbara who is so friendly , helpful and runs a great hotel . Would love to come back .

Our stay at Omia was simply exceptional. The grounds are out of this world with a lovely pool right on the most secluded beach you could wish for. The rooms are fabulous as part of 8 private villas with a restaurant and shared pool. Beds were large and comfortable and the balcony overlooking the sea was sensational. We also had a massage in our room which was wonderfully relaxing with the sound of the ocean throughout. The food was delicious with a good selection of fresh fish and seafood as well as more traditional Sri Lankan options too. The staff are so kind and attentive and helped us arrange Tuk tuks to wherever we needed to go. Barbara the owner is also extremely welcoming and went above and beyond for our stay. It was my boyfriend’s 30th and she arranged petal decorations on the bed and a special table and cake for dinner. Would recommend Omia to anyone - truly a slice of paradise! We hope to come back soon and only wish we booked for longer!

This is honestly one of the best place we have every stayed at. Everything, from the accommodation, location, staff, food…..were excellent. We will definitely come back soon and won’t hesitate to recommend to family and friends.

The only thing I could mention is the price point of the food and drinks - it was slightly more expensive than what we paid elsewhere in Sri Lanka and the remote location meant there weren't really any other options. That being said, the food was delicious so we didn't grudge spending!

We loved Omia! Amazing fresh food, delicious cocktails and comfortable surroundings. We loved how laidback the hotel was, while nothing was every any trouble for the lovely staff. The beach was beautiful and peaceful. Everything was very clean and tidy. The owner Amit took my partner out fishing one morning after chatting about their shared hobby, and organised a lovely boat trip on the lagoon for us. Omia is a true sanctuary, the photos don't do it justice :)

There wasn't anything we could fault and were very sad when our stay come to an end.

Wonderful oasis with stunning views of the Indian ocean. The design of the bungalows enabled us to have a fantastic overview of the pool and to wake up every morning to the beautiful ocean. Access to the white sandy beach was really easy from the site. It felt very exclusive and special.The owner, Barbara, was very welcoming and has deliberately recruited staff who shared her vision to make the visit truly unforgettable. Breakfast was excellent every day and choice from the' specials' menu for the evening was outstanding. We felt that this was the best food that we ate during our stay in Sri Lanka.

Location was great but if you want night life this place is not for you. It is incredibly peaceful and relaxing. Staff and owner brilliant the food was fresh and well cooked. The pool was lovely and the view of the ocean idyllic. We had a lot of help from locating the railway station to organising a dusk lagoon tour which by the way was excellent, lots of bird life and of course monkeys.

The location is stunning a few steps from the ocean. Our hosts and staff were so accommodating.

We had a wonderful stay at Omia. It is an oasis for a relaxed holiday in Sri Lanka. The rooms are nicely decorated and clean and have everything one needs. The food is great and the staff does not leave any of your wishes open. It has been amazing waking up to the view of the ocean and being able to go for a walk or dive into the pool. Barbara is a wonderful host, who provided recommendations as to places to visit and best beaches in the area. We would come again.

Nothing. It was amazing

Best hotel / resort we’ve ever stayed in. Staff were exceptional, and both the resort and the room were more then exceptional. Crazy ocean view from room 4. Amazing deserted beach literally right outside the hotel plus a really good pool. Food was great and stuff looked after us well. Didn’t want to leave!! Felt it was good value too for what we got.

We really enjoyed our stay here. The owners are warm and friendly the beach is terrific and we swam in the ocean numerous times ( you need to be confident in the ocean ). The staff are exceptional and their different personalities shine through. This should always be encouraged, staff are people and should be treated with respect and staff here seemed to be at ease which we personally liked. Next to the staff we really rate the food. The coconut cake was heaven on a plate ..... order it if you see it on the menu. The owner allowed us to be part of his birthday celebrations ..... how nice of him & his wife. Lovely lovely people. We would happily return. Final word is to the troop of pets. They seem well looked after and that warmed us to this establishment straight away !!!
