AMOUR AT TURTLE BEACH

Lovely stay at Amour at turtle beach! Quiet and peaceful, located a few minutes from the beach! Don was incredibly friendly and showed us the beach and the turtle sanctuary! Clean and big space, lovely garden where we got Sri Lankan breakfast! Highly recommended! :)

Beautiful setting a few minutes walk from one of many local lagoons with diverse bird life. It is only 2 rooms, one downstairs and one upstairs, so it's great for a calm and private experience. That said Don and Mala were very responsive and helpful. They even let us use the kitchen at the back of the property to cook prawns bought at Tangalle fish market. Very clean and comfortable stay. Thank you!

A true paradise – highly recommended even off-season! We had an amazing stay at this beautiful hotel. The place is absolutely stunning and full of nature! We saw monkeys, cute little squirrels, and even turtles right on the beach. Even though it wasn’t high season, we found the location to be perfect – peaceful, authentic, and full of charm. The people were incredibly friendly, the food was delicious, and the overall atmosphere made it a truly unforgettable experience. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing and nature-filled getaway!

We have a wonderful stay there. Quiet place, nice breakfast and comfy room with good hot water shower (which is not easy to have in most of places we stayed in Sri Lanka). It only takes 3-5 mins to walk to the stunning beach. We even had amazing turtle watch seeing turtle laying eggs at evening.

We had a wonderful stay! The staff was amazing and made us feel very welcome. One of the highlights was going to the beach at 5 p.m. and witnessing baby turtles making their way to the ocean – such a magical moment. Later that night, just a 3-minute walk from the resort, we saw a turtle laying her eggs, which was incredibly special. 😍🙏🏼 The breakfast was delicious, our room was very clean, and thanks to the good air conditioning, it always felt perfectly fresh. The host also recommended a local spot for dinner, and we had the best curry just around the corner. We would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting the area! ❤️

I was so lucky having chosen Amour at Turtle Beach for my stay - what a gem of the place! Superb location in a quiet Rekawa village, surrounded by lush greenery, few minutes walk to a stunning beach where green turtles come to nest. The room is very clean, modern, spacious and well furnished, with a very comfortable bed and a large balcony where sumptuous breakfast is served every morning. Aircon is quiet and efficient, it cools the room in minutes. But the best part is the hospitality of the owner, Don. He is not only an exceptional host, but also a great chef (I ate all my meals at the hotel as restaurants nearby were closed due to the end of the season) and a tour guide too (we did a couple of very interesting tours looking at local sights and attractions). He even brought me back to Colombo at the end of my stay. I had a truly unforgettable time at Amour, and I highly recommend it to everyone looking for a relaxing and memorable stay.

We loved our stay at Amour. This is a quiet place on the south coast near the Rekawa Turtle Sanctuary. Lovely house close to bush, lagoon and turtle beach. Great breakfast. Don is an amazing host who offers information about the area and will also drive you to destinations. Very thoughtful person. Highlights were the Turtle watch, safe rock pool to swim and the ancient Buddhist Mulkirigala Rock Temple. Amazing! Thank you Don and Kanthi.

This is a perfect 10. We were late but the dinner was ready, a wonderfall crab combo and a beer and just time to finish and go to sea the turtles needing and the babies birth. The beach is just a few meters from the hotel. The breakfast was also marvellous and and Don offered us his service to drive to our next place in this wonderful Sri Lanka. Do not hesitate to go there and see the turtles and much more. The best welcome ever !

Amour Turtle Beach is incredible. Perfect location to visit the stunning beach and see baby turtles hatching, lots of great restaurants within a couple of minutes walk, spacious, modern + spotless room, delicious breakfast on a beautiful balcony. The host Don was so kind, making sure we had everything we needed, helping us find taxis and generally going out of his way to ensure we had a great time. (He also drove us to our next location - very comfortable car, highly recommend!) His tip to head to the beach at 5pm probably meant we saw 200+ more baby turtles than we would have done otherwise! We originally booked for 3 nights but extended as we were enjoying the location and Amour so much. Book it, you won’t regret it!! :)

Nothing - it was fabulous

Everything was perfect, the hotel is really close from the beach where you can see baby turtles come out their nest to go to the ocean. Don is really helpful and was always there for me, I booked a motor bike with him, did my laundry, had diner at the hotel, and he organised my day trip to Yala national park and then Ella with some stops on the road. I’d come back for sure.

Nothing, everything was perfect
