I very much enjoyed the peace and silence of this magical place, surrounded by the jungle and with the sounds of different types of animals. Nanda (who is the manager) was very hospitable and charming to me. Having conversations with him I learned many things from this wonderful country. I got sunburned one day and they gave me aloe vera from their garden and also for a blister on my foot. I was quickly recovered from both things. Thank you Nanda and the other staff for your kindness and generosity. I truly recommend this lovely place.

We were staying here for two weeks and the place started to feel like home. The hospitality is way beyond. The manager, owner and people there were so friendly and we are so happy to get to know them. Breakfast is huge and delicious, we highly recommend to take it with 900lkr. If you are looking for a affordable but nice place to stay, just choose this one. Definately value for money! The place is near the train station and you can find restaurants by walking but we rented a scooter right next to the place with three minutes walk. Enjoy your stay if you choose this one <3

Beautiful scenery with a river surrounding the bungalows. Large appartment (no kitchen though only sink) and quite clean. You feel like sleeping in the forest with the sounds of birds and frogs and so many other animals! Theres even a varan roaming in the garden. Breakfast is huge but only local (rice and curry and roti). Staff is adorable although they don't really speak English but you can order anything with the hotel manager through whatsapp. They have a restaurant that delivers food upon ordering.

Watch out for the dogs at night as they can get quite angry at guests or just ask the staff to keep them inside or chained at night

Hidden gem close to the town area and beaches , perfect if you like peace and quiet. Friendly and welcoming staff that gave us a fresh coconut everyday,room is spacious,clean and comfortable bed.Has hot water for showers. We will definitely be back! Thankyou for making our stay in Unawatuna amazing :) The grounds is amazing too you can spot water monitors in the stream, monkeys in the trees close by,really cute and well behaved dogs too.

This little gem is such an amazing place. You're hidden in the jungle but still close to the main road. The room is big with a very comfy bed, and I had the most adorable balcony with a stunning view. The owner, Prasad, is one of the most gentle and kind person that I've met and will go out of his way to make you feel welcomed and that you have everything you need. Breakfast was delicious and you can also order dinner at a very fair price with a huge portion of food. He took me to see the monitor lizards in the property, which was amazing. I will come back and 100% recommend Milkyway Holiday Resort.

I absolutely loved the peaceful setting of Milkyway Holiday Resort. It’s a beautiful property nestled in nature, right by a serene lagoon. The views were stunning and made for the perfect backdrop to unwind. It's also conveniently located just a 20-minute walk from Unawatuna Beach, which was super handy. The hosts were incredibly warm and welcoming, which made the stay even more enjoyable.

Honestly, there wasn’t anything I didn’t like. Everything about the stay was lovely!

The hotel is surrounded by nature. In the morning you can see monkeys and hear the birds sing, at night there are loads of fireflies. Everyone who is working there is so nice and helpful. We really liked staying at Milkyway Holiday Resort. The room has AC and the bed was very comfy. The room had a table and chairs to play games or eat, also outside there were benches and chairs to hang out.

Nothing, everything was wonderful.

The property was really interesting! There were many monitor lizards, as well as monkeys, peacocks, and their lovely dogs. We enjoyed sitting in front of our room while watching the wildlife. The location is good, many options for restaurants just a short walk or tuk tuk away. We had breakfast at Milkyway and we were not disappointed, lots of food and very tasty for a good price.

Sometimes our air conditioner wouldn't turn on. Seemed almost as if I breaker was tripping.

Everything was perfect, the location is super nice. The owner and the staff were verry kind and helpful. Im highly recommending this place for long stay. Good price and perfect host. See you again.

Very friendly and helpful owner! Met us at the room with a welcome coffee. Brought us coconuts from his land. Room has a fan and AC. Breakfast for a very good price was large and tasty. Can organise evening food if you say in advance. Bathroom is a bolt on to the main bedroom so a semi outside experience. Hot water in shower. Use Pickme app.

No room towels. Our mattress was out of shape but I did inform the owner. Curtains would move around very easily with fan on meaning less privacy or hitting you at night in bed. Located just outside of the beach area so must walk or tuktuk.
