Coconut Grove Beach Cabanas

Family-run business - everyone very friendly - we were the only guests, affected by the crisis caused by the Iran war

I really enjoyed this property. To me, it felt like the last unspoiled oasis before heading west on the south coast. Viren and the staff were some of the kindest folks you'll ever meet. Viren himself was a pleasure to talk to on many subjects and insights to Sri Lankan culture, which for me, was so enjoyable. The bungalow was simple, yet clean with a very comfortable bed with with a functional mosquito net. I never once wanted to turn on the AC the 5 days I was there as the ocean breeze at night and shade of the coconut grove during the day was perfect comfort for me. Breakfast was fantastic and different everyday with base fruit and yogurt as a start. I didn't have a chance to eat dinner, simply because I was already ready for sleep when dinner was served and would eat late afternoon "dinners" at once of the great restaurants nearby. This property really is a special corner in the world and I know Viren has some improvements scheduled for the future. I look forward to a return someday to see them. Thanks for everything and see you soon!

Location

Very simple but very comfortable. Gorgeous situation and very peaceful

Nothing really. A pool would be lovely as the sea was a bit rough for swimming
