A little bit overpriced

Perfect location.

Stayed in April 2025

The rooms are a little dark and our room at the back with a nice jungle view had frosted glass, which was a shame. Unawatuna itself is not a place I would return to but if you're there, I'd highly recommend Flamingo

Very friendly owner made us feel right at home. The rooms had comfy beds, were a good size and had decent fans and AC. If you go to Unawatuna Flamingo is a great option. Not fancy but very homely and welcoming and has everything you need. There's also a couple of nice communal sitting areas for rainy days or chilling out It is situated right in the middle of everything.

If you're not fan of night life it might be to much noise to let you sleep while others are out. Also if you're not fun of russian hits ;) Just one plug in the room.

The staff was amazing, such a nice people, available 24/7, supportive. You could feel like visiting your family (lovely family). Beautiful place for breakfast, the view was amazing. Having food preferences they were so open for our suggestions, eventually we had a unique breakfast, the best in Sri Lanka! :) I ordered "ocean view room" (which has a window/balcony to the street) without knowing how intense night life in Unawatuna is. The owner did so much effort to try to rearrange bookings to change into "jungle room" (opposite side with a garden view, much more quiet). Balcony was nice, view to the ocean above some buildings and trees, view to the busy street and bars downstars - it was very nice, colourful, chilling. You felt like perfect place for your vacations. Whatever question or wish we had, it was solved and answered immediately and with pleasure. Amazing how happy people the owner's family are! Location in the centre of everything. You leave the room and you have what you want (beach, water sport activities, street full of stores, travel agencies, tuk tuks, restaurants etc.)

Only very small points: - noise insulation: noise insulation of the room is very limited, so we heard almost all the (bathroom) noises from our neighbours - mosquito net: the net for the double bed was actually two single bed nets. Therefore, it was too short at the ends of the bed and we still got biten

- room: rather spacious and every piece of equipment was intact. If there would be a luggage rack, it would be ideal - staff and host: very helpful and cheerful - location: beach is right across the street, our room was towards the back, which was really good as it is more quite

Shower pressure was very low so hard to get sand off!

Nice room, very clean and quiet. Great location close to beach and shops and restaurants. Nice people!

Great location, the host was so cordial and accommodating, rooms are spacious and we managed to get one on the second floor not facing the street, so it was quiet. Bed very comfy with 2 pillows for each. The room was really clean too. Hope to go back one day. I gave them my laundry and they took care of it right away. Highly recommended

Owner/Manager very accommodating. Excellent breakfast. Convenient location with easy beach access.

Stayed in March 2024

Front rooms are very noisy due to one or two beachside bars playing dance music into the early morning. The hosts did offer to move us into one of the back rooms which were better. We definitely recommend requesting a back room if you are at all sensitive to noise. Quite expensive - we have stayed in more luxurious hotels with better facilities on the south coast for a similar price. Also, should invest in warm white light bulbs.

Clean, spacious rooms, good location, friendly hosts.

The beach is right across the road from the hotel. Lots of good food and shopping near by.

Music very late into the morning. Not the hotels fault though. Very touristy

Staff was great and helpful.

Stayed in December 2023

The only thing that i did not like was when we had to pay, the conversion rate that the host asked for was much higher than the official rate and she gave all not so great reasons for that. Seems like they just wanted to squeeze money from us.

The location is great, close to the beach. The rooms are spacious and beds are comfy. Liked the common spaces in the house.

Nothing. All good.

Very nice property! Room was very comfortable - all was as pictured. Well maintained property with separate entrance. Super close to restaurants and lovely clean beach - right across the street (went barefoot! :)) Owners were very nice and professional! I will be back! Thank you.

The fridge turns of when you take out the card from the room. The AC started to do a lot of noise if stayed on for long time.

Confortable room. Really close to the beach and restaurants.

No proper reception.

The location was great and the room was clean.

Not a lot of places to put your stuff. Shower pressure is a bit low but ok enough.

Amazing location right next to the beach and tons of restaurants and entertainment places and very nice staff.

The owners are wonderful people, kind and always ready to help; the breakfasts are good both in taste and variety; the location is perfect, close to everything; the room was in a good condition, it was very clean, nothing was broken. All in all it's a great place to stay.

Our room overlooked the main street and it is noisy at night with bar music until the early hours Our host offered to move us but it was worth staying in our room for the size and balcony

Host is lovely and very welcoming Breakfast is taken at the restaurant next to hotel and is just amazing, lots of choice and fabulous surroundings Cool and airy room with excellent air conditioning . Spotlessly clean

Warm and caring family🤍 Good location next to the beach. Delicious varieties of breakfasts.

Stayed in February 2023

Perfect location just 1 min walk from the beach (across the road). Room is clean and cozy. Bed is comfortable. Owner is very caring and helpful. Delicious breakfast is provided in a next door restaurant, which opens at 8:30-09:00, please take this in consideration when you book with breakfast. Nearby there are a lot of restaurants, what is definitely good. On the other hand, you have to be prepared it might be noisy in the late evening.
