We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cute family hotel in Unawatuna. The staff took great care of us, ensuring that we had a memorable experience. They were incredibly kind and went above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable. The highlight was definitely the delicious omelettes they cooked for us for breakfast and dinner. We highly recommend ordering food from the hotel as well. The hotel also provided transportation to the airport at a reasonable price and allowed us to have a late check-out, which was greatly appreciated. The attentive and friendly service made our stay truly enjoyable.
Felt truly spoilt, no complaints.

They even organized affordable airport transportation and allowed us a late check-out. The hotel's positive attitude and great service made our stay enjoyable. The rooms were lovely, clean, and comfortable, with good shower pressure and air conditioning. The location was convenient, with a bus stop right next to the hotel and a supermarket nearby. I highly recommend staying at Sam's Guest House for a memorable experience.
Can't recommend this hotel highly enough.

The rooms at Sam's Guest House are just lovely! They are decorated in a way that instantly makes you feel at home. Plus, some rooms have stunning views of the Indian Ocean, which is a real treat. The private bathrooms are equipped with either a bathtub or shower, so you can relax and refresh after a long day. And let me tell you, having a seating area in certain rooms adds that extra touch of convenience.
I personally would have liked it if all the rooms had wireless internet access. But hey, that's just me!

The location was mind-blowing, just across from the bus station and a one-minute walk to the beach. There were lots of jaw-dropping restaurants and bars nearby. The big, clean rooms had super showers, AC, and WiFi. The hosts were incredibly friendly and welcoming, with EXCELLENT English skills. We loved it so much that we stayed an extra night and would have stayed longer if we could. Great accommodation!

The location was excellent, just a 3-minute walk to the beach, and the staff were amazing. They were so friendly, helpful, and always had a smile on their faces.
Breakfast offerings could be improved with more variety.

I had a fantastic stay at a guest house in a convenient location near the beach. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and had good shower pressure. The food cooked by the owner's mother was excellent. The staff, especially Kasun, went above and beyond to make sure I had a great experience. The guest house is also conveniently located near bus stops for easy transportation. Despite some noise from the main road, I would highly recommend this guest house for its excellent value and friendly service. I would definitely recommend this place for a great stay.

Overlooking the vast Indian Ocean, the well-appointed rooms at this guesthouse were like having a front-row seat to a breathtaking nature documentary. I spent hours just mesmerized by the waves crashing against the shore, feeling like I was part of an exclusive VIP ocean club.
Occasional wifi hiccups.
