This boutique hotel is a true treasure on the southern coast of Sri Lanka. Nestled right by the ocean, the property offers an intimate and serene atmosphere that immediately makes you feel at home. With only a handful of rooms, the experience feels wonderfully personal and private - perfect for anyone seeking peace and quiet away from the usual crowds. The cuisine deserves special praise. Every meal was a highlight of the stay - freshly prepared with local ingredients, beautifully presented, and infused with authentic Sri Lankan flavors. From the seafood straight from the ocean to the vibrant curries and tropical fruits, dining here is a culinary journey that pairs perfectly with the coastal setting.

Beautifull, wonderfully quiet hotel with spacious rooms, excellent bathrooms and a fabulous view from the windows to the lake. The staff and hotel owners are wonderful people - very friendly, kind and helpful. They satisfied all our wishes 🙂 They even cooked food according to our request, which was not on the menu. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful 😋 We would very much like to come back here again and recommend it to friends 👍

One of the best hotel stays we had experienced, everything was perfect from the staff to the property and the food was exceptional! We were taken care of by every single staff member we came across. The attention to details was above our expectations. We were also lucky enough to be there during their menu makeover and had a wonderful experience with Group Chef Sumudu whom was passionate about his menu and keen to hear feedback! Big Kudus to all the staff for making the stay enjoyable!!! Praba, Robert, Menaka and Lasitha! we truly felt a personalized touch and at home! Definitely on my list to come back here

We have not stayed before but We found out that this hotel changed ownership in December 2024. So ignore any previous reviews. It is clearly run by professionals now and they have done extensive refurbishment. It is truly beautiful and spotlessly clean. It had a Superb beach location, lovely swimming pool. Double aspect infinity pool. Attentive staff. Hotel located on a little peninsula with lots of pretty areas to sit. Sunsets superb. Can walk along beaches to other hotels in Ahungalle otherwise you really need a tuk tuk which the staff will always get for you. ( and are cheap) we visited a huge reclining Buddha Temple whilst staying here. A must do ! Internet OK. Fridge in room. Tea and coffee making facilities in room. Good supply tea and coffee and 2 waters daily. It was a lovely stay.

Wonderful, tastefully decorated hotel. Lots of attention to detail. Cozy, quiet and clean. The hotel is in a busy area, but it doesn't feel it inside at all. The room we stayed in has the option of sliding the glass windows and forming a common space with a terrace. All you have in front of you is the ocean. Arriving from the airport is really easy - almost the entire way is on a toll highway. The hotel staff is extremely pleasant and kindly. I'm not even talking about Francesca. She's amazing!!! Thank you for the early check in and late check out. I haven't had a tastier breakfast in those regions. Even the espresso was good, which is rare in Sri Lanka or I haven't been in right places. Be sure to try the massage. Something unique.

The most beautiful location, quiet, almost private beach, amazing design, comfortable rooms, nice food and of course, exceptional service, tailored and we really felt cared for. We traveled with our 2 year old that enjoyed the pool and the beach. I also was able to enjoy an amazing full body massage in the beach in the morning.

This hotel is heavenly. It is right on the most perfect beach and surrounded by trees and the occasional wild life. The rooms are large, luxurious and have large private gardens. The staff are well trained with the aim of providing a perfect holiday experience. This was the last of six hotels that we stayed at across Sri Lanka and was by far the best. The chef produced exceptional dishes and reasonably priced. We felt very cared for at Sundara. Thank you.

Very kind owner who does his best to ensure clients satisfaction. If you love art, you should speak to him about it ! He is a passionate collector. The hotel is very clean and spacious. Breakfast could be a little bit better for a 5 star hotel, but still it was delicious. The pool was clean. The very best thing about this hotel is the view you get from your room. Amazing 🤩...
