A comfortable villa located in a quiet village away from the crowded tourist hotels. A gorgeous, secluded beach with soft sand and palm trees is just 50 meters away. This beautifully appointed villa features a huge, fully equipped kitchen and a cozy living room. It also features two comfortable bedrooms and two separate bathrooms. The grounds are beautifully landscaped with fruit trees, seating areas, and a barbecue. The beautiful pool was specially cleaned at our request, for which we extend a special thanks to the villa owner. The villa is a 15-minute drive from Hikkaduwa's turtle beach. Keel's supermarket and an excellent seafood restaurant are a 5-minute drive away. I recommend this option for those seeking a secluded, comfortable getaway in the wild. I especially want to thank the villa owner for his responsiveness to all our requests.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at this wonderful hotel, and I can confidently say it was an exceptional experience from start to finish. If you're looking for a peaceful and relaxing getaway, this is the perfect place! The atmosphere is incredibly quiet and serene, making it an ideal spot to unwind. The rooms were spotless, well-maintained, and equipped with everything needed for a comfortable stay. The attention to detail was evident in every corner. The view of the river was just great. One of the highlights of my stay was the food – absolutely delicious! Every meal was prepared with care, using fresh ingredients, and the flavors were simply amazing. Whether breakfast, lunch, or dinner, everything exceeded expectations. What truly sets this place apart is the warm and friendly hospitality of the owners. They go above and beyond to make you feel welcome, always ready to assist with anything you need. Their kindness and dedication to their guests create a home-away-from-home feeling that is rare to find. I can’t recommend this hotel enough. If you're looking for a peaceful retreat with outstanding service, delicious food, and wonderful hosts, this is the place to be. I will definitely be returning!

Amazing! We had several hotels, apartments in Sri Lanka but this was the best. We felt great there the location is amazing, right on the beutiful beach. There were some waves but you can swim or you can use a nice pool as well. The staff was so kind and helpful. The breakfast was great they brought a table for us and we had it in front of our room in the garden while listening the sounds of the ocean. There were shops, pharmacy, restaurants nearby. Looking forward to be there next time.

This was a fantastic getaway and wished the stay was longer. The place was beautifully decorated to give a luxurious feel, with traditional Sri Lankan pieces and art. The staff was super friends and oh my god the food they prepared was just amazing. A traditional Sri Lankan breakfast is recommended.

Aesthetics and the view from the pool. Never too crowded as they host limited guests. Staff around for any help at all times. Free drinks in the evening. Staff was extremely cooperative and went beyond the usual to accommodate our needs. Almost everything you’ll eat is freshly cooked, including the chips, bread, jams.

We wholeheartedly recommend Sundara by Mosvold for a delightful stay. Hassan and the whole team extend outstanding kindness and ensure perfect service. The delicious cuisine, paired with the hotel's superior location directly at the beautiful beach, incredible garden and interior, create a truly enjoyable experience. Everything is prepared with love and genuine kindness, making it a perfect place to relax during your vacation. Both of us are eager to return to this lovely place on the next visit to Sri Lanka.

All I can say is that I left crying, leaving behind some wonderful people who made us happy, who satisfied all our wishes, took care of us, discreetly, without disturbing the surrounding peace.There is no qualification for the services offered. We had the privilege of being the only tourists in the hotel and all the staff managed to satisfy all our wishes. Do not miss the opportunity to cross their threshold if you are in the area. A small location with special people, where you will feel treated like a king.

The staff is super helpful and friendly. Right from Anand who served us our meals to the manager Mr. Manoj and Mr. Indula, all of them were so cooperative and helpful.

Dont look any further. This should be your place to stay at. Great staff, beautiful view on the lake, comfortable rooms and nice swimming pool. You can use the kayaks for free and the surroundings here are stunning. A lot of different kind of birds, monkeys, bats and other animals to spot on the lake. The owner speaks good English and you can see he puts a lot of effort to make this place perfect for his guests.

The crew is professional and ready to help, but also very friendly. It was the best place we visited during our whole stay in Sri Lanka. We really enjoyed our stay here and would gladly recommend it!
