Nature. Natural food. Luckily, not too many tourists yet, and it is not too crowded like in other parts of the island (e.g., in Merissa.)Avoid Matara city itself - it's crowded. Look for places nearby, where Google View shows more green color.

Polhena beach is an excellent place to have a safe swim for a traveller and can see turtles in the sea if you are lucky enough. And can visit Matara light house and Kudawalla water air hole by travelling a bit from Matara which has another nice beach.

Polhena is a nice village, Matara is a nice city with friendly people. There is lots to do in this area.
For example guided snorkling at Polhena Beach where you can really swim with the turtles, a boattrip on the Nilwala Ganga where you can see crocodiles.
Or visit the Starfort.
A great restaurant in Matara city is Dutchmanstreet restaurant. In Polhena i recommend eating at Sunil Rest, Blue Corals or Reef Edge restaurant.
Walking around at night in Polhena... take a stick and flash light with you, the street dogs just had puppys (cute) but their mother instinct gave me the creeps.

Matara is great transport hub, has fast bus connection with Colombo (via expressway). Also most buses on south pass through Matara. Though it's not a good place to stay longer - crowds, no good beaches, high prices.

We stayed at Turtle Eco Beach Hotel.
We stayed at Turtle Eco Beach Hotel. Olympic or near Olympic length pool, but only two lanes wide. Quite unique. The owners are French as are many of the guests. But so many languages can be heard there. Very family friendly!
We traveled back and forth to Polhena Beach (about 1.5 km to the south) for snorkeling daily. (Between 08:00 AM and noon, the water is the clearest.) Sadly, during our stay, the daily low tides coincided with - roughly - that same span of time, so we had to be extra careful to avoid getting scratched up by the coral reef.
Our stay was for three days from 15-18 January. We saw sea turtles every day and could even feed them "sea grass" by hand.
We ate near the hotel or near Polhena Beach and avoided going into town...
Beautiful charm quiet & clean place. Owners are very friendly .Room was very comfy and they provide every facilities to guest... And best thing is the roof top. 😍
We stayed two nights and we feel like home.
Every room has luxury facilitys. (Ac,fan,mosquitoes nets, balcony, complimentary items ect..) The apartment equips with kitchen and accessorys. Easy access to matara city. ❤️ foods was amazing and delicious 😘 If you looking peace and quite beautiful place to staying this is the best place in matara.. ❤️

Kaminrich hotel is one of the best hotel in Polhena. Reasonable prices. Honestly I am so happy we found this place.. not only that but also they gave us an early check in. helped very nice, friendly staff. We felt special from the beginning to the end.. Spacious garden with a pool. Surely can make you feel like you home. The room was very spacious super clean. As well the pool too. They have a parking area. Thank you Kaminrich hotel for making our stay comfortable. Hope to visit you again.❤
The room is big, clean and newly made, at least it looks like it. The hotel stuff is amazing friendly and extremely helpful with anything. In particular the Manager Gobi is the best person which we made in Sri Lanka, helpful with any kind of question, very fair and friendly. We cannot say enough thank you to him.
Besides the tuktuk drivers for the hotel are also amazing the first time in Sri Lanka since 2 weeks we had trustworthy driver. Full recommendation for the place.
Directly across the road from the beach you can not get anymore central. There is a beach bus restaurant across the road which was super convenient. It is basic so don’t expect anything fancy here. No hot water and okay bed and there is noise from surrounding bars. We just enjoyed sitting on the balcony with a drink watching the world go by!
1. For my wife - best hotel during our stay in Sri Lanka
2. Spacey and comfortable room
3. Calm and really nice view from terrace
4. Best garden with palm trees and big swimming pool
5. Sound of sea
6. Nice breakfast
7. Good service (special thanks for cleaning lady, that did laundry for us)
8. Dogs - my daughter loved them
The hotel is located directly on beach and from balcony is amazing view on the ocean. We were nicely suprised how helpful was local personal - preparison of delicious breakfast, notification for turtles on the beaches and advices related to locality. This hotel we can only recommend for staying in Matara.
Beautiful location near the beach, awesome people, very good atmosphere. Too bad I couldn't stay longer. I will come back and stay one week next time. There's also this juice bar right next to the homestay. It's lovely! You cannot find a better place in the area.
Love this place, very clean and minimalistic interior. Close to the town and the beach. Super friendly host and very helpful. Everything was just perfect!
Recommend for anyone who is looking for accomodation in mathara close to the beach and town.
Everything was perfect about the stay. The pool was really beautiful and well conceived. It’s so quiet and calm. The hotel manager made sure we were comfortable on every level. The 5$ breakfast served to our room was really appreciated.
The hotel was amazing and had a great location - close to the beach. The rooms were super clean, had a great ocean view and smelled really nice. The pool was very clean and the staff very friendly and helpful. The food was delicious.
Probably the best host we had in Sri Lanka! He was extremely helpful and nice. Rooms were more than beautiful and clean and had everything you might need. We had such a pleasant stay here. It definitely exceeded our expectations.
The location was excellent for people wanting to spend a lot of time on Hiriketiya Beach. The family was SO lovely and kind. They even have a really sweet dog there. I really enjoyed them and their kindness.
Nice place. lovely open rooms overlooking beach. good pool well kept. friendly, hospitable staff. location fabulous. tallala beach beautiful and unspoilt. easy access to other places along coast.
Location was just amazing! The beach in front of the hotel was full of beautiful turtles! The swimming pool was very nice and the staff super friendly and helpful.
Legends everywhere. Amazing food, people and experiences surrounded by beach and jungle.
By far one of the best hostel/bars/ in sri lanka if not the world.
