Location is perfect. The only hotel in the beach, there is no one a couple of kilometers each side. For comparison, if you go to Unawatuna you will see the difference, the very negative one. Service. The staff is very nice. Restaurant food is gorgeous. Have compared it with the best restaurants in Galle. Beach and view from the balcony are very nice.

Everything was absolutely perfect. Staff: Janaka was very welcoming and helpful. Once you arrive you are gifted with a welcome drink and some fruits. They have offered us a ride from and to the train station. Laundry service was provided free of charge. Every day our room was super clean and organized after room service. Location: The hotel is close to ahangama, nevertheless it is located in the middle of the jungle far enough from the busy area. You can enjoy the hotel to relax and feel the nature. Facilities: The room was clean, modern and very big. The bed was very comfortable. You can find all the amenities you will need, including for example: yoga mattresses, gym weights, food in the fridge, etc.

I recently stayed at Pandanus Resort in Bentota Beach, Sri Lanka, and it was an incredible experience. Our room was upgraded to one with a private balcony and jacuzzi, offering a stunning beach view. The staff was amazing, providing exceptional service throughout our stay. The food was delicious, with a variety of options to choose from. The beach was super clean and beautiful, making our stay even more enjoyable. I highly recommend Pandanus Resort for anyone looking for a relaxing and luxurious getaway.

We enjoyed an exceptional stay. From the welcome by lively host, to the chefs preparing great lunch and breakfast to the spotless room. Sergeant house has been on our the best places we stayed at in Sri Lanka. It felt private, luxurious and romantic. Can’t recommend it enough!

The location of Uyana is perfect—peaceful with serene beaches and lush greenery, yet just 5 minutes away from the lively Ahangama town. This offered us the ideal blend of relaxation and access to local culture and activities. Additionally, Janaka and his team were extremely helpful, providing us with 5-star service that made our stay even more memorable.

Wow what a perfect stay. Great relaxing location with beach and pool steps away from each other. Room was massive and so comfortable Great AC.Great check in. Plentiful breakfast so much food. Drinks a bit pricey but strong and enjoyable. A big Thankyou to the best waiter in Unawatuna, Supun, who looked after us with 5 star service and genuine hospitality and friendliness. Well done Supun.
