Highlights

“Right on Unawatuna Beach, this guest house strikes me as a convenient launchpad for both relaxation and adventure; Galle Fort is within easy reach, but the snorkeling and diving just outside the front door might prove too tempting to pass up. I imagine most will appreciate having that on-site restaurant serving Sri Lankan specialties after a long day in the water. A private balcony with sea views sounds about right for a tranquil stay.”
