    I've been to Unawatuna 4 times/years and that beautiful place changes for worse. There is new oversized monster-hotel, water scooters, loud music, fireworks, higher prices... In last 2 years 90% of tourists are Russians - some restaurants are only in russian. Most likely, I am not going back.

    Unawatuna beach has beautiful water and golden sand.

    Unawatuna beach has beautiful water and golden sand. The part of the beach where I visited, the ocean gets quite deep very fast, and the waves seem to cary you in quite easily. I haven't seen any lifeguards or flags that would indicate the wave's condition, but local people were very kind to give information. If you like hiking, the city has a nice trail to a beach called Jungle beach. Trough the same trail, you can pass by the Japanese Peace Pagoda, and if you are lucky you might see monkeys and lizards. The trail is more or less 40 min one way. The restaurants from the hotels are very much on the coast, sometimes seems to close from the beach. But the food quality is good and affordable, and lots of these restaurants offer alcohol. I stayed one day in Unawatuna and it felt enough time to discover what the city has to offer.

    Its a great beach, much busier than it used to be. Some great places to eat, generally inland a bit so do some research. Perfect place if you want a 15min trip into Galle which is a must. Nice and safe

    I heard that this used to be a great beach.

    I heard that this used to be a great beach. Unfortunately I do not think it is today. Very exploited and there are many beach places renting out sunbeds. They can get away with having (very) crappy toilets because there are new tourists every day, they do not need a good review. Having dinner on the beach was a strange experience, started out good but then a large company came and occupied the space next to us, ordering champagne, oysters and lobsters like there was no tomorrow, and we were forgotten about. There are plenty of other beaches in Sri Lanka that are much better.

    It was one of the best beaches in Sri Lanka but the most crowded one. Also several gaming water sports are in this beach. The water is clean but a lot of cafes and restaurants in the area. We didn't like the service in one of those cafes. They tried to lied us with the bill and the owner was very rude. It is typical that kind of populated beach areas with a lot of restaurants and SPA services, as well as a night life..

    Lovely little guesthouse off the beaten path. About a half hour walk into the city, or quick tuktuk ride. Wifi is quite good, nice outside areas to relax, and all the facilities were functioning properly. Cold water only in the budget rooms, but understandable for the price. The family that runs it were lovely, and made us feel right at home, answering any questions we had about the city, or just chatting with us about Sri Lankan culture. Overall great value for money, and we would welcome the chance to come back

    I recently had an amazing hotel stay at Serenity Boutique - Unawatuna in Sri Lanka. The hospitality was exceptional, and the staff went above and beyond to make my experience memorable. The room was spacious, clean, and offered breathtaking views of the surroundings. The on-site dining was a culinary delight, featuring a variety of delicious local dishes. The hotel’s attention to detail and commitment to guest satisfaction truly made my stay unforgettable. I highly recommend it for anyone visiting Sri Lanka.

    Kaju Green was my last stop of my Sri Lanka trip and truly the best way to end an adventurous time; it was the perfect spot to calm down and relax. The premises are a true dream if you are a nature and animal lover. The lodge promotes a sustainable lifestyle and you will definitely feel connected to nature. Ruwan and the team are amazing, they will make sure you feel taken care of and they are there to support you in any needs. Will definitely come back.

    The location of this hotel cannot be beaten. We had a great two nights staying at this hotel, finding it incredible relaxing and the perfect place to end our holiday. Rooms were large with all the amenities you require, there is a restaurant that serves delicious meals, and turtles swimming in the sea which you can see from the hotel. We particularly enjoyed watching the turtles as the sun was setting with a sun downer!

    The hotel garden is exceptinal. I believe they are the best one in Unawatuna. The breakfast is beyond expectations. Pool is lovely for the familys, we prefer to swim in the sea. They have a private beach but maybe it may be season effect, the sea was so wavy. There are good beaches reachable by tuk tuk.
