Turtle Bay Hotel

The room was spacious with a very nice view.

Thé food was not good. We had dinner and breakfast at the hotel and even morning omelette was bad. Thé staff was friendly but a bit insistant... We sera there during low season maybe it would be better during high season.

Amazing location, view, food and staff

My favourite part of my whole trip to Sri Lanka! Stunning quiet beach, pool, food, service all 5 star! 10 ocean view rooms to this quaint boutique hotel.

Patio doors need a handle so that they can be closed while enjoying the terrace to keep the AC in and the mosquitos out.

Fantastic location, beatiful property. Wish I could stay there longer. Must come back with family. Comfy rooms, great restaurant, cool beach, great breakfast!

A small boutique hotel and very attentive and friendly staff made us feel at home. The room was big, the quiet beach was great for long walks, and the restaurant staff took care of my dietary needs. Special thanks to Raji and Chef Fernando for their great service. We had the best sleep here out of our 3 weeks traveling in Sri Lanka. Very happy we came across this hotel!

We couldn't swim on the beach due to strong currents, but we knew this when we booked.

Location, views, comfort, clean, staff

Quality of meals - food wasn’t as good as we’d expected especially given how beautiful the hotel is.

We had a brief experience at the hotel, and according to our stay, i can not get a full evaluation of this hotel.The view of the ocean is breathtaking .

A little attention will make the place better and tidier. It just needs effort to change the bedroom furniture and paint the bathroom, and the place will become a paradise

Sea View room was amazing, spacious room, balcony, spa. Food in restaurant was delicious, I tried many types of sea food. Staff is very helpful and ready to make your stay enjoyable. I liked the pool with “stars” on the bottom and spend many hours swimming and enjoying. Limited number of room(7 in total I think) made my journey to feel private

Turtle bay is a cute little hotel in a beautiful and secluded beach. Rooms are big and comfy. Has a big pool facing the ocean. Staffs are excellent. Special mention to Raji and Sarath. They took care of us well.

We liked everything! -rooms. There are only like 7 of them and all of them face the ocean - can you imagine?! The view is incredible! And you hear the ocean sound all the time (you’ll get used to it!)-you will be having daily walks to the ocean beach which is very beautiful and clean (but with heavy waves)-but most of the starts go to amazing people who work here. Very friendly and helpful! Always smiling -I liked the fact that this hotel is a bit isolated and you literally get to it what they got from the fishermen. But everything we tried (shrimps, tuna) was sooooo delicious. They also have fresh fruits all the time. And don’t forget to try Sri Lankan traditional breakfast?I would say it’s the best place I’ve stayed so far. I definitely wanna go back. You will be very happy here. Cause all the people around are happy to be there too.

Location was really good how ever I would have preferred more spread on the breakfast buffet

Preferably better view of the sea from the room

A great find in quiet corner of Southern Sri Lanka away from the crowds.A beautiful palm lined pool on a quiet wild stretch of beach.What makes the resort so special is the hospitality of the excellent team who can’t do enough to make your stay memorable.The small boutique concept works really well with excellent quality food and drinks and good value for money.We will definitely be back.

Overall the grounds are beautiful! It is very apparent the staff take pride in maintaining this! Along with lovely smiles! The pool has a beautiful view and well maintained, seating is spotted around to relax and eat, beautiful quiet beach to walk along, spa massages relaxing! Restaurant serves range of foods for breakfast, lunch/substantial snack foods , cocktails/ beer, dinner from 7pm.We have spent 2 weeks intrepid travelling and this was our chill time for 2 nights. Thoroughly enjoyed thanks to the very welcoming, happy staff! Definitely stay again but in a room with a view.

We enjoyed our stay, but a few things could be improved:Dinner starts at 7 PM, but the restaurant lights were left off, making it near impossible to see our meal. This seemed to be an attempt to prevent flying insects, but it affected the dining experience.We booked Number 7 Deluxe Double Room with a Side Sea View for three adults. However, the “sea view” was mostly obstructed by large exterior walls, with only a small glimpse of the pool next door and a little bit of the sea.The single bed was more like a cot bed, and our adult daughter’s feet hung over the end.Despite these points, we enjoyed the overall experience.

pool ambience and amount of loungers available in sun or shade

restaurant meals. they were tasteless, mostly overcooked and the menu never changed

amazing location! good room very nice staff!

We enjoyed the whole experience at Turtle bay resort , the staff were friendly and couldn't do enough for you , the location is stunning , beautiful beach

Basically everything! Location, staff, food, room - all excellent. As with most places the staff either make or break a stay and at the Turtle Bay they certainly made it. Raji and Adi in the restaurant backed up by the talented Fernando in the kitchen really enhanced our stay - Sarat the manager has a great team. Thank you everyone!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Turtle Bay, Wonderful staff, food and amenities.

We have just spent a week at this fantastic small hotel. What made it so special?Firstly the location is absolutely stunning, a palm fringed, empty beach, white topped waves and the sun shining in the blue sky.If you want quiet serenity, then this is the place for you. It is a place for rest and relaxation, reading, swimming and eating delicious food. Fresh seafood and fish are bought from the harbour each day and there are Sri Lankan and some western meals on the menu too. Breakfast is a buffet and I recommend asking the young chef to make you a fresh hopper which you can fill from a selection of Sri Lankan dishes.Best of all were the staff. They looked after us so well and really went out of their way to make our stay perfect.

Wonderful location in a beautiful garden with direct access to the most beautiful long quiet coconut tree Lind sandy beach ,Kalamatiya. Superb staff. Gorgeous, good value food.
