Sundara by Mosvold

location, beach, friendly staff. great service and lovely property. quiet, boutique feel.

while most of the food was good. breakfast was great, seared Tuna was great. some of the dishes such as Pad thai could be better. as with many Sri Lankan restaurants you may ask them to go lighter on salt...

It’s a small piece of heaven ,green , directly on the beach with very few rooms (6) Silence and secure ! We traveled with our 2 small kids and enjoyed our stay much Traveling period is also very important, because if it’s rainy season there is no much to do around than rest and enjoy the views . The staff is kind and helpful. Food is delicious.

Breakfast and evening dinner were both fabulous. Beautiful view of the beach. Very calm and tranquil location. Service and staff both excellent. Room had its own terrace with a view of the sea where we had breakfast and lunch served to us. Amazing sunsets.

Absolutely nothing, we loved the hotel and wished we could have stayed longer!

Superb location with a beautiful beach. The hotel put on live music in the evenings. The food was delicious although not very varied. The chef came out to greet us which was a nice touch. Friendly staff and considered interior design.

The manager was helpful but very to the point and not that friendly. Seemed very stressed. Everyone else was lovely.

Boutique Hotel is in a perfect location on a small clean beach before Balapitya. I was granted an early check-in, which was very much appreciated. All the staff were extremely welcoming and professional. The food and service was fantastic, all delicious...thank you

Nothing

Super authentic place to start our Holliday was perfect !!

Food could be a little bit better ;) for the rest amazing

Very good food Friendly service Beautiful unspoilt beach Great room Small hotel with intimate atmosphere

Sea only calm enough for swimming at end of beach, but not far to walk

An oasis of beauty and tranquility. Just eight rooms, more like a home than a hotel. Such peaceful views across the lawn onto the beach through ancient trees. It’s on a very rare patch of Sri Lankan beach with no other hotels or restaurants, just the local fishermen. It’s a magical stretch of beach with hardly any tourists on it. The powerful waves means its not ideal for swimming. But if you walk around the corner 15 min away there is a calmer huge beach, but much more crowded and built up . I did have a quick dip every day, but better to swim around the corner . On the way is a rock jacuzzi pool perfect for young kids, and very popular with the locals at the week end. I discovered it’s co owned/managed by a norwegian so the material standards are really high, beautiful local furniture, gorgeous interior decoration, sophisticated simplicity or is it Asian elegant ‘hygge’ ? The food is delicious, beautifully presented with a choice of local and international dishes, fairly priced as well. As a solo traveller it’s a real haven. The staff are particularly kind and attentive. The manager even called me at 22.00 when I wasn’t back to check all was ok.

It’s perfect. Ideally all the staff understand English better as some things got lost in translation.
