The property is relatively new. It’s extremely clean & well maintained. The rooms & balconies are spacious with adequate bathroom & kitchen supplies. The staff were so supportive & helpful, assisted us with arranging scooty, tuktuks. Property manager was available at all times & very friendly. Location is also good, midway to both beaches in Unawatuna. Overall would highly recommend staying here!

We celebrated a special wedding anniversary with a stay at Sun House. A beautiful heritage colonial mansion, tastefully renovated as a boutique hotel. Gayan and team could not have been more helpful. We were treated to a beautiful room, the food was excellent, cocktails were unique, and absolutely everything is made in house by the team. Beautiful pool on the grounds and a pleasant 10 minute walk into the fort (or a tuk tuk can be arranged). Would highly recommend staying here.

It was a wonderful holiday in a superb location! The hotel is located in a quiet and cozy place, very cozy, clean, with excellent breakfasts. But I would like to separately mention the owners and manager of the hotel - Samo. These are the kindest and most helpful people in all my travels and I can proudly call them my friends! The souvenir at the moment of departure was very touching. Thank you for a wonderful vacation!

Wow ..one of the better places we have been over the years literally around the world. And especially in Sri Lanka. Hence starts with a super refreshing fresh welcomr juice you can chose from the menu yourself. Check in fast and earlier possible than the official check in time. Whole hotel new and with a pretty classy design. Also infrastructure bat a rather very high level. Very cosy rooms with a super bathroom. The staff really extremely friendly, fast and helpful. Especially to be mentionned Amien at the reception. The breakfast simply delicious with good cafe or tea included (not always the case in Sri Lanka). Yet almost too much since two big rounds based on your menu preferences 🤪. Also the dinner delicious for a bit higher price (yet better food than a highly rated restaurant closeby). Super well located in the very center in Galle fort yet rooms all silent (on the other side of the road try tonic spa..very qualitative spa rooms and charmy colonial infrastructure with excellent massage for a fair price). Even so over 150 usd the night..its great value for money👍. Definitely a place to stay☺️!

Everything and anything!!! This place is a paradise on earth… truly magical! It’s 3 min by Tuk Tuk, or motorbike from the beach, which is just what you need to be away from the main road. It’s completely immerse in nature and next to the lake… endless numbers of animals and birds surround the property. You have a natural sounds playlist 24h a day!! The owner Andy, and the manager Yanaka + the cooks are the nicest and kindest persons, and they truly do everything to make your stay perfect!! The rooms are incredibly well decorated, huge and super clean with any type of facility!! The garden, overlooking rice fields, is a park itself. You can also get a massage booked or do yoga and breathwork under one of the many trees!! A true place for the soul 🌴🍉🥥 will be back soon

Having stayed at multiple resorts & hotels across Sri Lanka over a period of one and a half weeks, Tri by Amaya takes the win for the best stay overall for my wife and I. We happened to celebrate our Anniversary at Tri. General Manger Dinesh, Manager Harsha and Chef Camil helped plan out the day with multiple couple’s activities which included a couple’s spa, a 1.5 hour boat ride in the lake with drinks and refreshments, and a lavish dinner with off the menu vegetarian items along with a cake prepared by Chef Camil himself, all of which made the wifey super happy. We spent the rest of our time at the lake facing villa with a plunge pool, with full height windows, and a running balcony facing the lake with seating, which was absolutely perfect to say the least. An attempt to extend our stay by a day and skip 1 night in Colombo failed unfortunately as the Villa was already booked by other guests. All in all, felt pretty lucky and happy that Tri happened at the very end of our Sri Lanka trip, as it turned out to be an absolute banger, thanks to Dinesh and the entire team of service staff.

What a gem of a place to stay. From the moment we arrived Kumudu and team couldn’t do enough for us. A taxi transfer from Colombo airport to Galle was easily pre arranged and meeting the driver was slick. We stayed in a superior deluxe room with jungle view for 4 nights. Facilities great and outdoor shower lovely. There was the added personal touch of having breakfast every morning served on your own terrace. Lush planting made for secluded spaces and good to have a pool too. Although the location is slightly out of the fort it’s easily accessible using a tuk-tuk and it’s only about 40-50 minutes walk if you’re feeling energetic. Special mention needs to go to Eran, the Olive’s on site tuk-tuk driver. It was so easy and reassuring to be able to message and he’d be there to pick up/drop off within minutes. It’s also possible for him to take you further afield. We did a round trip to Koggala lake, a turtle sanctuary, tea plantation and saw stilt fishermen. An absolutely wonderful introduction to Sri Lankan hospitality and we can’t wait to return.

This was by far the best hotel we stayed at on our trip. The “King’s Residence” room was unbelievable. Definitely recommend this room if you can get it. The food was great as was the ice tea we were given on arrival. Best ice tea in Sri Lanka. The service we received was very high quality. I would recommend this hotel to anyone and we will definitely stay here again. Thanks again for the hospitality! Cheers Andrew and Sib - Australia
