Our daughter's room had a cool outdoor bathtub. You get great use of two other Thambapanni resorts in the area. Rooms are large and interesting. Very musty. The air conditioner needed to be maintained to keep mildew out. Clothes drying rack, nice bathroom and good breakfast. Super accommodating staff. Unawatuna is a bit of a Russian tourist trap. Aggressive tuktuk drivers and merchants. Jungle Beach nice but crowded. The Sea Waves restaurant is awesome for dinner! ##### Elliot Stayed 4 nights in Dec 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller Feb 27, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Cute little hotel. Thambapanni Retreat is a cute little find in the heart of Unawatuna. I arrived late for the first nights stay and the only room left was a room above the kitchen which was extremely unpleasant and noisy with a window shining light through all evening. I have to say, Anil and his colleague ensured the next day I was upgraded due to the inconvenience and did their level best to resolve the matter. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2022 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Oliver Feb 13, 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Wonderful A lovely relaxing location in between an active beach town.

Don’t wait. Love love love this hotel! Amazing location - 5 min from the beach walking- the room was stunning and super comfy. The spa was GREAT! ##### Sebastien Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Lisa Feb 14, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely hotel but they overbooked our room We were overbooked so the room with balcony which we booked via hotels.com (which was prepaid) was available. Very disappointing as we ended up being put in an inside room with no balcony/patio. After discussing with manager we were moved to another room but only after 2 days, which meant us packing and moving out luggage not ideal. So please be careful if you book through hotels.com or Expedia as all the rooms they sell should have a balcony but you may be put in an inside room. Despite the room issues we did like the hotel, the staff were very accommodating and breakfast was fantastic. It’s a shame about mix up with room as we probably would of returned. ##### Lisa Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Mark Jan 28, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Charming little gem Great staff, so friendly. Lovely large room, a little rough around the edges but all the more charming for it. Everything worked! Breakfast was good, good choice and super staff serving. Yoga available 8-9.30 for 1500LKR if that's your thing. Small pool but everything you need ie:- water, sunbeds etc. Location is great, tucked away from the busy main road yet only an easy 5 minute stroll to the beach and shops with plenty to offer. ##### Mark Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2019 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Jesse Dec 12, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely Hotel Fantastic staff, facilities & food. Thank You ##### Jesse Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### sean Mar 28, 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Very average hotel, i would stay somewhere better First, the staff were not very welcoming. They were not churpy. We did not get the room we booked, it was much smaller than advertised so do not get sucked in like we did. Pros Big bathroom Soft bed safe Cons Terrible breakfast, very basic Room service did not speak english We ordered a Hawaiian but received a tomato pizza Air con was terrible Electricity kept on going out No hot water small bath tub lights outside the room you cant control they were on all night location was not the greatest, had to walk about 10 min to the beach Checkout was slow and bad service The door was so small The massage was soft when i asked her hard 10 times ##### sean ### 10/10 Excellent #### Dani, Köln Mar 25, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Sehr hübsches Boutiquehotel, mit guter Athmosphäre Das Hotel liegt ein Gehminuten abseits vom Strand, und ist daher sehr ruhig. Der Pool ist recht klein, aber die Gartenanlage wirklich sehr schön. Insgesamt hat das ganze Hotel eine sehr angenehme Atmosphäre, man fühlt sich dort sehr willkommen. Leider hat das Classic- Zimmer keinen eigenen Balkon, das war in der Beschreibung nicht zu ersehen. Das Frühstück war sehr gut. Und das gesamte Personal Sehr freundlich und aufmerksam. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber. ##### Dani Stayed 4 nights in Mar 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Mar 17, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Good Value Near the Beach Amazing staff. Buffett breakfast in the morning. Walking distance to Unawatuna Beach, or walk to Jungle Beach is a little further. Nice pool. It's set back off the road for quiet. This isn't a five star hotel, but it's a good value for what I paid and what you get. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 5 nights in Mar 2018 ### 8/10 Good #### Doreen, Cheshire Mar 5, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Lovely unusual hotel in a good location This is a fantastic hotel, however at first we were put in the very top room up a flight of 132 stairs! This room has a great view of the sea, etc but my husband has a bad knee and a heart condition so it wasn't at all suitable. The next day we were moved to a fantastic room lower down, the management were excellent. We were not aware if this issue when booking The staff in the restaurant were lovely, nothing was too much trouble, ##### Doreen Stayed 4 nights in Feb 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Jan 27, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Charming jungle hotel Might find different kind of insects in the room, but that's the why it is, its in the middle of jungle, I've stayed in superior and deluxe room and I like them both, it is located 5 mins. away the busy beach. I love each room has it's own outdoor resting area nice for a book. Wi-fi is not too stable, breakfast is simple buffet with some local dishes. Front office manager was helpful, restaurant staff. the bald man is such a sweet heart, can't wait to go back! ##### Verified traveller Stayed 2 nights in Jan 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elaine Dec 22, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Wonderful views and peaceful Greated with a warm smile wonderful welcome excellent service helped me arrange whale watching and turtle sanctuary The yoga classes are fantastic very knowledgeable teacher and very relaxing Of all the places I visited I would recommend Unawatuna I loved my room which was in the canopy of bamboo and palms Every day the monkeys were a joy to watch along with the parrots Thank you for my stay I will be back Elaine and Savanna from Edinburgh ##### Elaine Stayed 1 night in Dec 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Dec 17, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 5-day stay Nice hotel, perfect for a couple of nights with a young baby.
