The Seascape

The property is right on the beach with nice views. The rooms are comfortable, clean and spacious.

It’s not the most beautiful beach on the South Coast and the hotel feels a little overpriced for what it offers. The food, in particular, could really use some improvement.

Lovely small hotel right on the beach. Great decor and very comfortable room. The staff were very nice and accommodating. Highly recommend for a relaxing vacation.

One of the best places we’ve stayed at in Sri Lanka – hands down.The price-performance ratio is unbeatable. The staff is incredibly friendly and attentive, and the food… probably the best we had during our entire trip. Definitely ask if they can prepare a traditional Sri Lankan dinner — it’s not on the menu, but they’ll happily arrange it.The beach is right in front of the hotel. The waves are high enough to be fun, but still safe for swimming and beginner surfers. Right next door is a turtle conservation spot — we even got to release baby turtles into the ocean. A truly magical experience.The hotel wasn’t crowded at all, and the architecture is smart and beautiful. You can tell the rooms and the entire space were designed with care and love.Matara itself was one of the most interesting places we visited. It felt more authentic and less touristy than other coastal towns.We’d come back in a heartbeat — highly recommended.

We really liked the accommodation. It's right on the beach with private sun loungers and parasols - that was the deciding factor for us when booking. The complex is very clean, the staff is very friendly and you feel very comfortable. The pool is also clean and the water is pleasant. The sea is a bit stormier but you can go in easily. We were very happy with the room, it was a great size, clean and the balcony with sea view was perfect for relaxing. The shower had great water pressure and the size of the bathroom was adequate. The breakfast was very extensive and definitely too much for us (less could be offered here).

Unfortunately not all the towels were clean, but these were changed and checked immediately. In our opinion, the bathroom lacked ventilation, as it gets very humid in the bathroom (once you've showered, you sweat again).The staff only speak rather poor/little English, which unfortunately led to misunderstandings for us (especially when paying for the safari, which was a rather unpleasant situation for us). It would be really good if the language skills were improved. But they are always very helpful! We only had dinner once at the hotel, which was ok but lacked spices.

Lovely hotel, right next to the beach away from the main road. You could rent a board near the hotel if you want to surf, or sit on your balcony and watch. Staff friendly and helpful, hotel nice and clean.

I had a great stay at the seascape. My room was very comfortable and quiet. The food and staff were amazing, would stay again for sure

Nothing to not like!

Views , food , staff all excellent

We had a very squeaky bed that when one of you turned it made a noise and then you roiled into the middle !!!

Great view. Good surf for intermediate/ beginner. Clean beach about 1 km long. Not as touristy as some beaches. Ate the Sri Lankan breakfast and dinner and the curries were some of the best we have had. Generous servings too. Our room was large and the bed comfortable. Sitting on the balcony in the comfortable chairs was lovely. Would book again.

make it much shorterWow! 5 stars well-deserved. Perfect rooms, delicious food, and top-notch service. Unbeatable location with an amazing surf spot nearby. Staff went above and beyond. Luxurious yet comfortable. Can't wait to return!

Dinusha is an absolute perl, such a lovely and wonderful person. The lazy chairs and umbrellas at the beach are great. The bed is very comfortable.

Breakfast is very average. Smoking should not be allowed on the rooms balconies. If someone smokes next to you then your room fills up with smoke!

I had an awesome stay here! The hotel is in a great spot—quiet and perfect for unwinding. The beach almost felt private and there were plenty of sunbeds to relax on.The staff were super friendly and always ready to help. Breakfast was a bit the same every day, but we still enjoyed it, and the other restaurant food was tasty and fairly priced.A quick tip: rent a scooter if you can, though there are tuktuks parked right outside most of the time. Our room was clean and the WiFi worked most of the time. Overall, I’d definitely recommend this place for a chill getaway!

We had a lovely room overlooking the small garden and long beach. A great position. The beach was ideal for walking and the surf perfect for beginners upwards.The breakfast was terrific , the staff super friendly and facilities on point.

Whilst the food was good we felt that dinner could have had more local food options. One might we ate next door where freshly caught fish and local curries were available. We felt Seascape have the opportunity to offer similar in a more comfortable setting that Seascape have.

The view from the room is exceptional and you can fall asleep with the sound of the waves. Everything is turned towards the beach so you can enjoy proximity to the ocean. The beach is mainly visited by surfers so it's very calm.

Clean room. Great breakfast. Nice view from room.

Expensive food and drink. Dinner average. Not much on the menu for vegetarians. One member of staff made us feel uncomfortable.

A very nice small and personal hotel right by the sea.The rooms were modern, clean and had a nice balcony facing the ocean. Even the beds were comfortable.The staff was very friendly and helpful.I would definitely stay there again.

We spent 3 nights there which was perfect since it is quite far from everything and we spend all our time inside the hotel. The dishes on the menu were not that many and a bit expensive to be Sri Lanka. For 3 days it was ok and the food was very good.

Staff was very friendly and helpful.

We stayed in one of the ground floor rooms and there were a lot of flies on the patio.

Everything was perfect, from the first minute, until last. The staff is so friendly, doing everything with a big smile. Food so delicious, and you can eat fresh sea food every day. Location is perfect, with just few steps from room to ocean. 10/10!

This is a superb property. Very comfortable rooms and super friendly staff. The food too is top notch. When it comes to breakfast they are almost too generous, it isn't a choice between western and Sri Lankan breakfast, you get both. It is right above a quiet stretch of beach and the balconies are the ideal place to chill out. Wish I had booked for more than one night. I will almost certainly be back.

In terms of its provision I have nothing to criticise. The only reason I gave it a 9 and not a 10 is a slight question mark over cost. My room cost me 130 USD which is roughly double what I have been paying for other almost (but not quite) equally good rooms. Not a big issue and it won't stop me returning but it is my only minor critical observation

We had a great time, directly next to the very beautiful Beach and wild Ocean. A big balcony to sit and enjoy sunset. The room was very big and clean, the bathroom had even 2 Showers.The food was delcious, specially we loved the Breakfast and the "Rice and Curry". The staff was very friendly and kind. They tried to make everything very comfortable for us.One time we got a fresh coconut directly from the tree in our garden.The ocean is perfect for surfers and to play around with the waves.Some times we went to town, or another beach with a Tuktuk. This was very uncomplicated and not far. We did a crocodile tour on the river, the hotel offered in the programm and we were very lucky to get very close to a huge cocodile.We will remeber this week in the hotel as a very good time of our lives.

The welcoming ambience and amazing staff truly made our stay special. The chef went above and beyond, creatively crafting local-style cuisine that perfectly met my dietary requirements as a celiac. I would like to commend the entire team for their exceptional hospitality, and I wish you continued success in the future.
