I really don't know where all those great reviews come from. This place need a MAJOR renovation - especially rooms (holes in the floor) are depressing and pool (dirty and with broken tiles). Staff is slow and they could use someone to help them organize things better and quicker. Location is nice, very remote and if you want to relax... More

We loved this place and were so sad to leave. We spent 4 nights here but would have liked to stay for longer. It was so relaxing and chilled out. Our taxi driver had some issues finding the place so make sure he reconfirms the location by phone as it's not in Tangalle. It's kind of in the middle of... More

My husband and I stayed here as part of our honeymoon and thought it was Tangalle - in fact its over 20km away and difficult to get to Tangalle should you wish to visit. The road to the hotel is unmade and difficult to drive – but we got there eventually and the hotel itself is lovely and the room... More

A secluded hotel near nothing else, a good place for some peace and quiet, just 7 rooms and lots of space. The beach is lovely for walking but the currents make it unsuitable for a swim. It was the only clean beach we found in our travels along the coast and makes a stunning backdrop for the hotel. Nice to... More

If I ever get back to Sri Lanka, I will return to this place. Super-friendly staff, spacious rooms, great food and beautiful view. When tired of eating and sun-bahing, you can go for a run or walk on the beach. A bit remote in a good way.

We got married at Turtle Bay in March 2013 and had the most amazing time. If you’re looking for the setting of an intimate wedding then this is the place. We had a traditional Buddhist ceremony in the private garden and then had photos along the beach. Throughout our stay the staff were welcoming, polite and friendly. As the hotel... More

Turtle bay is the kind of place you see on postcards. It is simply beautiful. You have about 5 km's of shore only to yourself and the rooms are all very spacious and nice. The only downside to the place is hospitality. The manager is always there, but he is not realy the kind of person that makes you feel... More

Having just spent 5 days here after a gruelling 7 days tour of the interior this really s paradise!! Having only 7 bedrooms it is the most intimate experience you can have. The staff are always there to help the chef turns out the most amazing food of fish and seafood caught and bought each morning. We opted for half... More
