I truly recommend House of Freedom. It is a perfect place if you want to experience the local culture and see how the locals live. I've spent 24 hours with Isuru. We had a trip around Bundala, a motor night safari and morning birds watching. Additionally lunch in his family house and evening barbecue. The house and room are humble, but everything is clean and the hospitality is amazing. The sourounding is breathtaking. No tourists around. It was an unfargetable experience!

The location was just perfect. We felt like being in the middle of nature. Cows entering the property to bring fresh milk in the morning. Endless of different all around the property. But the room was very clean and pretty much sealed towards critters. The owner did everything possible to make it a wonderful stay. Very good breakfast!

We had a wonderful stay in Sri Lanka – such a beautiful and peaceful place! The location was quiet and relaxing, offering great value for money. The food was absolutely amazing – both breakfast and dinner were delicious and freshly prepared. We also went on a safari with our host, Chamin, and it was an unforgettable experience. He took us to Bundala National Park, which is a truly stunning place that you must see. Chamin knows the park like the back of his hand, and his knowledge made the safari even more special. Highly recommended!

We had a fantastic stay. We arrived and were warmly welcomed. Our room was ready and it looked great. We had a room with sea view. We were immediately offered a beer on arrival and in the evening the host prepared fresh fish, shrimps, chips and rice for us. One of the best dishes we've had in Sri Lanka. The accommodation is located directly at sea, so you have a lot of peace here. The host is very helpful and will make your stay comfortable.

Brilliant location. Peaceful and therapeutic for your soul. Bird watchers paradise. Sun set was stunning. We stayed for two nights and enjoyed it immensely. The facilities are just right for glamping - It is rustic but very comfortable and clean. The food was super delicious and pricing extremely reasonable. Staff were friendly, knowledgeable and the service was excellent. Lovely place to just getaway from it all.

The location was picturesque, staff was super friendly and attentive, the food was delicious, and the stay was really comfortable with all the comforts that you'd expect in any good hotel. As a minor detail, I loved the fragrance of the toiletries provided. This place gives you a great value for the money you spend on it.

A great location, close to Bundalla National Park. The rooms are basic but comfortable and clean. Lagoon Inn has a very relaxed vibe, and the hosts, Kamal and his wife, are beautiful people and very helpful when it comes to tips about the area, transport, etc. Kamal organised our safari and it was fantastic. It was very relaxing and it felt like we had the park to ourselves, unlike the larger, better known parks. We saw plenty of monkeys, elephants, birdlife, crocodiles and even deer, although only briefly.

Among the best guest houses I've been. Very friendly and helpful owner, excellent food and tea, central and quiet location with sea view, 100m from beach and 500m from main bus station. Room had private bathroom, fan, good ventilation and daylight, is mosquito-proof when doors closed, and had a balcony with sea view. Free wifi is available. Very good value for money. It's very pleasant to sit on the balcony or in the shaded garden in the breeze, hear the sound of the waves and enjoy the view.

Excellent! Great location by the lagoon, there were some bee eaters and kingfishers on the tree outside the restaurant (see photos below). Food was amazing and plentiful, and the staff were very friendly and helpful. They helped me arrange the safari and the taxi to Tangalle after my stay. The room was very comfortable, with good AC, which you will really need here.

This place is all about the location. It's amazing to sit on the little balcony and enjoy the view of the birds right from your room. (We stayed in the upstairs room) There's not much else nearby, and no other options for restaurants but they can provide dinner at the cottage. The owner arranged an amazing safari into Bundala which we absolutely loved. The jeep was really nice and our driver was so lovely. The hotel arranged all our for and drink for the day also.

Quiet, spacious shady balcony outside the rooms and a lookout platform that is great for birdwatching and sunsets. Hosts welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable, especially on the birdlife having worked as a guide at Bundala National Park. The accommodation which included air conditioning was great too. The location is ideal being within walking distance to Bundala National Park. The safari they organised was fantastic (they own the jeep) were a good price and professional. .
