    We really liked the stay. It was end of season and not busy. The room (No. 12) was clean, power outlets near the beds. Even the switch for the fan. Mosquito net in front of the bathroom window. Nice balcony. Very friendly and welcoming host. Offered us a different room, due to a loud party in the neighbourhood. Can't tell about breakfast, since it was not included. Best stay so far in Sri Lanka.

    Villa Gamini was one of the best places we stayed at in Sri Lanka. The owners were very welcoming, the rooms were big and clean, beds very comfortable and the location was only a 5 minute walk from the main street. Would 100% recommend this place!

    Exceptionally tranquil with a luscious garden and amazing hospitality from Gamini and his wife. The communal well organised kitchen area was an added bonus. Our room was super comfy and clean, overlooking the garden waking to the sound of the birds.

    Perfect Stay! The hotel was in an amazing location, just a 2-minute walk from the beach and city center. The host and staff were so kind and welcoming. Our room was big, with a large balcony, and the hotel was the cleanest we experienced in Sri Lanka. Highly recommend!

    Best stay in Sri Lanka! We really enjoyed our week with them. Perfect location - very quiet and easily walkable, but also quick tuk ride if needed. Kitchen is a big bonus and very well organized and maintained. Makes you feel safe and feel like home.

    Everything was great.

    This is a lovely, peaceful accommodation with lovely garden. We loved the garden view from our room balcony. There is a big kitchen with all facilities you need to make food or tea/coffee. The host was very helpful and responsive. We had a great stay in this place and celebrate 2025 New Year’s Eve in Unawatuna. The place is a short lovely walk to beach and shops.

    A little bit out of the way (maybe 15-20 minute walk to the beaches) but for this you get peace and quiet at night. Would be nice to have things like body wash etc provided in the room but not essential.

    Spotlessly clean, comfortable bed, good air conditioning, beautiful view from the room on 2nd floor, quiet.

    We have had a lovely stay at Gamini. The rooms are very clean and comfortable with lots of natural light, they bring you fresh towels and clean the room. The facilities are great, the communal kitchen is very useful. The owners have a lovely garden, the view from our balcony is beautiful and green, we’ve even seen humming birds feeding from the tree. The owner is a very nice man and made our stay feel easy and relaxing. Thank you, Jezz & Tilly

    The rooms are very modern and clean, there is a beautiful garden and the surroundings of the villa. The access to the common kitchen and fridge was a great bonus. The place is managed by a German lady, and one can immediately feel the western way of management of the property, this including the furnishings of the rooms and provided amenities (for example sufficient space to store or hang your clothes and towels, socket adapter, etc).

    We are a big family with 3 kids. We loved the kitchen, it was great, fully equipped. Helped a lot to organize mornings and evenings with the kids. Quiet location, good walking distance to the turtle beach. Extremely clean, comfortable beds, modern bathrooms. Overall the best and cleanest place during our full month of backpacking in Sri Lanka.
