Hot spring Hotels in Unawatuna

Everything you would except from a huge 5* hotel including a buggy to take you from place to place. There were too many families and kids for my liking and I found this hotel too loud. There wasn’t anywhere other than my room where it was quiet enough to read my book. The sand on their private beach is a bit gritty. Service is slow because they’re busy. I had lunch at the beach club. I asked if the devilled prawn wrap comes with fries and was told it doesn’t so I ordered a portion of fries. The fries came out way earlier than the wrap. When the wrap did come out it came with fries. The tails had not been taken off the prawns in the wrap! It was a bit of a mess but they were spicy and nice. They did take the fries off my bill. I booked the “sense of touch” 90 minute massage at their spa. It was so good - the closest thing you’ll get to a deep tissue massage here. And I used the steam room afterwards which got really hot to the point you can’t see anything. I did feel super relaxed afterwards and slept so well. The breakfast and dinner buffets had good choice and the food was good. They provided me with a packed breakfast at 4:45am when I went whale watching in Mirissa. That contained a pastry, a couple of sausages, madeira cake, a boiled egg, sandwich, orange juice and water. Pretty good. The bath in my room was huge. Couldn’t figure out how to drain the water though. All the boutique shops, local cafes and restaurants are nearby if you don’t want to dine in one of the many restaurants at the hotel.
