We stayed for three weeks in town and changed accommodation four times, Stardust was our favorite. Clearly it is not the cheapest place, but in terms of ambience (tranquil, peaceful, chilled out) and cleanliness (the rooms get cleaned every day) the best. If you are looking for a budget party place closer to bars and restaurants then the Stardust is... More

this is a place for people who want to experience the real sea and the beach. the individual cottages, with cajan walls and roof makes one feel we are still on the beach. privacy is great. most who stay are those who stay for weeks and weeks for surfing. and it is away from the crowds who come here just...

Being very happy with my first stay here in 2011, I returned for a three night stay in April This year. I stayed in the family cabana at the very end of the property that is a basic but clean two roomed tatched cabana with direct views of the ocean. I stayed here before and what attracted me to this...

We felt this guest house / hotel was overpriced for what we got. We were booked on a half board basis for two nights. On arrival we were greeted by a friendly porter who took our bags to our room, He spoke little English. Unusually, this was the first hotel in the month we spent in Sri Lanka where we... More

Nothing to complain about except the a bit unwelcoming staff. Good breakfast, nice garden, and room ok with fan and ‘cold’ water shower. Dinner menu looks great, but partly due to the advice to pre-order if one wants quick delivery we went elsewhere. Main objection is that in any other beach area of Lanka such a room costs about Rs...

We stayed in a beachfront cabana for 3 nights and had a great time. The rooms we stayed in are basic with fans and an outside cold shower, however they are not an issue when you have the weather, the spacious private beachfront areas with hammocks and loungers. You can chill out or tour or surf depending on your mood.... More

We loved our stay at Stardust! We stayed in a beachfront cabana for 4 nights. The cabana was great, it opened onto a view of the beach which was 10ft away. Furniture was basic but comfortable. It has an open bathroom ceiling which might not be for everyone but we liked it! Peaceful and quiet in the evenings all we... More

We chose this hotel because we wanted to be right on the beach. They have a nice garden, next to the beach, with a few sunbeds. The rooms are nice and clean. The food in the restaurant is good. We expirenced the service to be less, less helpfull and friendly, compared to what we expierenced until now in sri lanka... More
