A quality Beach resort located in a quiet & calm location on the golden sandy beach in Ahangama , The natural corral reef breaks the strong waive & makes the ocean in to a safe place for a sea bath. The sound & the freshness of the sea breeze coupled with the lushes green surrounding relaxes your mind & body... More

I returned to this hotel by chance two years after having visited under different management. If you are after something simple, clean, right on the beach this is a great spot. Value isn't too bad even with the 50% rate hike after the change. I found most of the staff very friendly, tho the check in was a bit lacking.... More

This is a good spot on the beach, although you will be bothered by hawkers on the beach although not on the hotel grass / pool. However the rooms, food and staff are pretty unexciting. Rooms are quite bare but adequate and there was a good shower / comfortable bed. Air conditioning a bit hit or miss and you only... More

We ended up staying here 1 night impromptu due to our booking at Tangalle was reduced from 2 nights to 1. This place is right by the beach, nice ambiance and friendly staff. Wifi was a bit spotty and drinks pricey. However the food was good (no buffet) and it was fairly quiet. Not much out there in town, nice... More

It's hard to find places to stay in Galle area for a group of travelers, who need twin beds, so this hotel was rather a forced choice. Unfortunately, the choice, while not terrible, was not a good one either. The place is quite rundown, the staff is mostly very positive and trying to help, but is far from being efficient,... More

The hotel is well situated . The whale watching in mirrissa , turtle hatchery and birds island "madol duwa" a short distance away. The beach in front of the hotel is beautifull and excellent for a breathtaking sunrise and sunset. This is a good place to watch the famous stilt fisherman. Service is average but the buffet dinner and breakfast... More

Insight is a hotel with a very good location, but it's beautiful surroundings are totally undermined by its horrible service. From the first moment at check-in, it was clear. To be honest, it wasn't the staff, it was the management. After three questions, I could see that the manager was not trying to be helpful and was cutting off other... More

The doorman is quite rude and the management inexistent. Poolside is nice though. Considering the other options available around I did not feel that was good value or the best possible pick one can make.

This was a basic hotel but the room was large, very clean and had a good shower. However, there is no TV, fridge or minibar. The location is fantastic as it leads straight onto the beach. The pool area was nice. The staff were very friendly.

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
It is a place to relax, rejuvenate, and experience heritage, culture, nature and the way of life in the remote south of Sri Lanka. A resort located in an area where you can also surf and dive. From the lush green garden walk on to the golden sandy beach where you can see the natural reef breaking the blue water to a gentle wave which transforms to a tiny bubbly ripple. Swaying and whispering palms blended with the sound of waves on the quiet beach takes you through a journey of serenity. The long lonely stretch of beach offers you peace in abundance and a dip in the warm Indian Ocean is rejuvenating. Lie under a palm tree and relax on this unpolluted stretch of beach. Learn the art of stilt fishing – a mastery passed down from generation to generation and enjoy the only village of stilt fishing in the world. ... more   less
