Very beautiful territory, spacious room.
Beautiful view from the balcony.
Walking distance to the beach.
Cons: high audibility, animals under the roof did not allow normal sleep at night (noise from running, squeaks and screams).
Overall, we are satisfied, will appeal to those who seek privacy from the hustle and bustle and nature lovers)

The main asset of this place is the staff. Everything. What was not noted when booking was the lack of glass in the windows. They are closed with decorative wooden shutters, as the hotel is decorated in a traditional style. But opening these shutters means listening to all the sounds that you can already hear quite well, and in the evening mosquitoes will fly in. Some people won’t notice, but I was in a small room with no windows, and without daylight it wasn’t very good. The mattress was comfortable. The breakfasts are good. The hotel team is pulling out all the stops, but renovation of the rooms is already required))

We had lunch several times at Thambapanni restaurant located by the Unawatuna beach. The food was amazing and the hospitality of the staff was exceptional. Each time we were served by Indunil and he was so knowledgeable about not only what dishes were the best but also about where to visit and their history. His knowledge of the history of the area and the history of Sri Lanka in general was outstanding. All I can say is that he is a great asset to Thambapanni!!! Anyone visiting there should check him out. His amazing stories as well as his thoughtful service at the restaurant were delightful, second to none! Thank you Indunil.

If you're looking for a relaxing escape with a peaceful and serene ambiance, Thambapanni Retreat is the perfect place. The calmness of the environment truly soothes both the mind and soul. The staff were incredibly friendly and hospitable, consistently going above and beyond to ensure that guests are well taken care of and feel right at home. Special mention goes to the chef, Mr. Lionel, who was exceptional. He expertly prepared any dish we requested, exactly to our taste, and with impressive speed. Additionally, Mr. Anil, the Restaurant Manager, was very accommodating, even arranging complimentary transport to access the amenities of their three sister hotels in Unawatuna, where guests can enjoy all facilities free of charge. The daily room service was impeccable, with everything kept spotlessly clean. Our stay at Thambapanni Retreat was an unforgettable experience, and we’re already looking forward to visiting again soon.

Pleasant hotel next around the corner of a lively street with many restaurants and shops. The small garden around the swimming pool is like an oases, with monkey’s in the tree. The staf of this hotel is very friendly and helpfull. And the restaurant serves very good fish dishes (catch of the day).

Firstly this probably merits 3.5 out of 5. The reason is I felt quite disappointed when we arrived, having booked directly with the hotel and asking for “Superior” rooms which bear no resemblance to the Superior ones shown on the well-known booking site. I initially thought we’d been given the wrong rooms and had to double check with reception . We had two rooms which at $96 per night were the most expensive of our trip. We don’t normally spend a lot on hotels so this was meant to be a treat at the end of a long tour. These rooms were pretty basic, smelt quite musty as they were built in to the rock face, had many steps to reach and the sofa in one room was torn. The mosquito net had several holes in it. I understand that Sri Lanka has had a rough time recently but to charge these kind of prices, especially in the low season is not really justifiable. The hotel really needs a good returb, and I noticed that the rooms below ours were being updated during our stay. Plus points were the staff - absolutely amazing, helpful and polite and the food which was delicious- try the fresh fish/seafood plates. Also it was really difficult to find! Put up a sign board! The hotel has some way to go before it can be accurately described as a “luxury boutique hotel”. Overpriced.
