Schatzi's Hideaway

Amazing quiet location, walking distance to the nearby beach by a lovely junglely footpath where I saw monkeys, loads of crabs, many birds, varano lizards and even two small snakes (inoffensive). Easy to get bus to nearby surfing beaches like Kudawella and Hirikrtyia or to Tangalle. Amazing kind and helpful staff and delicious food.

The room I stayed in has a window facing a brick wall which is a bit sad with such a lovely environment and garden around the house... But to be fair I didn't spend that much time in the room anyway.

It was perfect. The property is relaxed, quiet and surrounded by a beautiful garden and nature. Even though it feels like it, it is not far off the nearby cities (10 min by scooter) and small shops and restaurants can be found all around. You can easily go to Mawella beach by foot (3-5 minutes). We recommend renting a scooter to make full use of other nearby beaches. However, there are lots of buses for that as well. Everything is clean. The hosts are extremely welcoming, friendly, helpful, and easy to talk to. They make you feel home.

Great location near to a very quiet and beautiful beach. The property is great, and the hammock and seating in the garden area are a great touch! We really enjoyed the food and would recommend trying the optional dinner at least once: it was one of the best rice and curries we had in Sri Lanka. The hosts are really helpful and offer assistance with organising lots of local activities, including kayaking on the lagoon close by.

The nicest people you will ever meet. Highly recommended.

Beautiful homestay near a calm beach. It has a nice garden and hammocks to chill in during the day. The best part about the stay were the hosts and the food!

The beds were quite old and made noise by every movement.
