The position is perfect and having stopped here in 2012 I was looking forward forward to my two week stay, I had reserved the top room as it has great views to the beach. I had reserved this room 6 months in advance only to find two others who also thought they had reserved the room, I got the room... More

We visited this beach to see if we fancied staying here but after visiting we decided that one of the beaches on the Matara side of Tangella was for us. As the beach here is very long and wide. Still a lovely spot I'd say but it wasn't the beach we wanted. We were looking for a private bay type... More

This was our second visit and our opinion hasn't changed. It's the perfect place to unwind away from the noise and bussle of the towns of this beautiful island. Really good rooms and spacious outdoor veranda With great staff and wonderful food all at reasonable prices. The only thing to disturb your peace is the crashing of the waves on... More

My boyfriend and I stayed at Lonely Beach Guesthouse for 5 nights in early January. Living in northern Australia, I have very high standards when it comes to beaches and beach holidays and Tangalle definitely delivered. Crystal clear water, a rubbish-free beach that stretches out forever and (best of all) only a handful of tourists! The Resort is located beside... More

This is a bit away from the busy town of Tangalla, about the last place on that beach which seems to go forever. It's a smaller place, with its own part of the beach. Rooms, food, people are great and the price makes it a good value. I actually came back to it!

We stayed for two nights and thought it was excellent value for a lovely room right on the beach. It seems quite a long way off the beaten track when you first get there, but don't worry; it's really close to a busier resort, if you want to go somewhere else for a meal / drink. We went during the... More

This was exactly what I was after. No cars, peaceful, beautiful beach and not expensive. If you enjoy walking on the beach for 7 hours and meeting only 1 or 2 people, this is a great place. It is very quiet, near the sea turtles. The food was very good and huge meals. I wish I was still there.

We were booked for two nights but only stayed one. The location is great - right on the beautiful beach. Unfortunately, that's the only good thing I have to say. I had emailed in advance and confirmed reserving the top room. When we got there we were given the bottom room and told that a couple were having a romantic... More

Great place to relax. Excellent beach but was too rough at the time of our visit. Cook makes excellent food and serves super huge portions. Rooms are basic but clean and have a large private balcony. No wifi, have to go next door to a larger resort to access wifi. Canoes can be arranged through the manager for a ride... More
