"Very clean room.Lovely pool. The hotel is out of the way near the river. We loved the tranquil setting. Apart from our safari trip (which was arranged by the owner) we didn’t leave the hotel, which suited us because the food provided at the hotel is delicious. The only negative thing I would say is they could do with upgrading the recliners by the pool. "

"I recently spent five nights at Ravana Garden, and it was truly amazing. Nestled on a serene, untouched beach with no other tourists in sight, this hotel is the perfect escape for anyone seeking tranquility and natural beauty. From the moment we arrived, the staff with Dilki, Lakshitha and all others made us feel right at home with their warm smiles, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality. Every detail of our stay was thoughtfully curated to ensure a perfect experience. The culinary journey in...

9.2 out of 10, Wonderful, (20 reviews)
"La Pentera is a new property which has a unique concept of a tree house. The property is quite far from the Udawalawe National Park - about 30 km or so. The directions are also unclear, even if you use googlemaps. The property is new and in great condition. However, there are things that could be better, especially the food. The bathroom has hot water though there is some water leakage. A great experience stay but could be better."

Shangri-La Hambantota

10/10 Excellent
"This is a tropical oasis. Clean, big rooms, amazing pools, great food, gigantic breakfast buffet and beautiful evenings with cocktails at the lounge. Staff were friendly and the kids had a perfect day. This really is the new bar we’ll judge all future resorts against."

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Mattala?
The best area to stay in Mattala is generally near the Mattala Rajapaksa International Airport (MRIA) itself, or just a short drive away in the surrounding rural areas, depending on your primary reason for visiting.

For travellers primarily using the airport for transit or as a base for exploring the nearby Yala National Park, staying in one of the boutique hotels or guesthouses a little outside the immediate airport vicinity is often the best option.

They provide easy access to the airport, usually within a 15-30 minute drive, and often arrange airport transfers.
