Hotel is 5min walking to the beach, very quiet place away from maim road. All guys are super nice and will go above and beyond. Thank you for your Sri Lankan hospitality.

Great atmosphere, peaceful and far from the noise even though it's not far from the main road. Surrounded by a lot of green, it is very nice, clean and convenient. Best bed I slept in during my stay in Sri Lanka, really comfy! The staff was also kind and welcoming.

Love this hotel - stylish yet comfortable. A total surprise when you first come down the narrow lane to the entrance. Hats off to the designer. Rooms had a clean, functional design. Staff were lovely, going the extra mile for each guest. Meals were excellent. Beer available, but byo wine to dinner. (There's an extensive wine shop on the corner) Located close to the beach. Good laundry service is available, which we used.

This review is just for the restaurant that we ate in when passing. Friendly and helpful service but very small pizzas (8 inch/20cm) and a seafood noodle dish that included chicken and chicken bone somewhat detracted from the meal despite the food being good.

Trip a deal group Friendly caring staff, clean, great food, lovely rooms and bathrooms. Good location, on quiet alley but close to beach front. Rooms located around central garden with greenery hanging, just relaxing and calming environment.

We pull up at Epic Unawatuna and it’s a quaint boutique style hotel. Clean tidy and nicely set out. Happy and relaxed and we have no real expectations . The surprise happens when you order your meal from a nice well thought out menu. The staff are truly wonderful. Exceptional service that is beyond expectations. The food arrives and it is tasty authentic and pleasing to both the palette and the eye. I would highly recommend this little gem for a wonderful holiday but be sure to leave room for a hearty meal that is cooked fresh and indict tasty by Chef Mr Sumith and be prepared for exceptional service that goes above and beyond expectations by Mahesh and Luxman who will all make your stay wonderfully memorable.

Do not let the exterior mislead you. The hotel and rooms are exceptionally pleasant, tidy, and inviting. Special commendation goes to ALL the staff, particularly the Security Officer who warmly greeted us upon our late arrival at 2:30 AM, the staff who assisted us during breakfast and dinner, and even those encountered along the corridors. They consistently provided beach towels and replenished water bottles daily, which proved immensely helpful during our stay. Kudos to the Teamwho makes our stay enjoyable!

A wonderful and cozy place to relax! Delicious breakfasts with fresh fruit. Located close to the beach and restaurants. The staff is friendly and always ready to help. I really liked it, I recommend it!

We were greeted with a refreshing glass of water melon juice which was most welcome after the drive from the airport. Our rooms were beautifully cool, clean and spacious, looking onto a wide and generous veranda over the courtyard. We were treated to a visit by a family of black faced monkeys in the morning which was a magical moment. Food, staff and the building were all excellent and we would be very happy to visit again.
03.05.2023 Guest
Great place to stay that is not far from the main area of restaurants in Unawatuna and a quick 2-minute walk from the beach! The room was massive and very comfortable and clean. The staff were very friendly and always happy to help! The hotel provides fresh beach towels everyday which was a bonus. Would recommend for a comfortable stay!
