well, yes, it is the most expensive place we have been at, yet the best. The quality of details, the location, the minimalist style, it made it a superb experience. It is very expensive ? yes, yet, you pay for something that, to our experience, you do not normally find. more

We both thought the Amanwella was a fantastic hotel with wonderful staff who were always there to help, without being in your face. The location was just what one dreams of for a tropical beach stay and the fact that fishing boats and authentic Sri Lankan village folk were on a small part of the beach just added to the... more

My girlfriend and I went to stay 4 nights at amanwella earlier in the year. It was not too busy, which suited us well and we were made to feel like we had the whole place to ourselves, it was fantastic. What I love most about this place is its lack of ego. With some large fancy resorts you feel... more

My partner and I stayed at the Amanwella for 3 nights March 14th - March 17th 09 inclusive. We were having the time of our lives in this utterly BLISSFUL hotel until we woke up the morning we were due to check out and realised that some of our possessions were missing. We then made a grim discovery that hidden... more

They memorize your room numbers, so no paper in the restaurants. But at the edges it's suffering a tad from... more

We would like to commend the staff and management of Amanwella for their kindness, professionalism, attention to detail, warmth, and deliverance of quality service! You made our stay truly wonderful and we will most certainly return as soon as we can. Thank you! more

We cannot believe that more tourists do not seem to have sri lanka on the radar and that this hotel is not more widely known about. We had 2 interconnecting ocean suites. The suites in the hotel are all identical but only a handful interconnect and not all are on the first row ie closest to the sea. We reckon... more

We spent 3 days at Amanwella in May 2008 and at the end of our stay, we had the entire resort to ourselves! In typical Aman fashion, the resort is set in a stunning location. Sweeping vistas of the beach, lined with coconut palms and the sound of crashing waves makes this a truly unique property. The rooms are spacious,... more
