Room and bathroom sorely in need of maintensnce and repairs. The most expensive and the least well maintained hotel we stayed in in Sri Lanka.

Staff very helpful.

bathroom and kitchen need refurbished, otherwise an excellent,

Wonderful views from any of the 3 rooms. Practically on the beach. More of a home stay than hotel but food available all day. Lovely, friendly, helpful staff. Bed big and comfy with excellent aircon within. Good restaurants within walking distance. 20 minute walk to wine shop and 5 minutes further walk to ATM. Only downsides are the bathroom and kitchen need refurbished, otherwise an excellent, relaxing stay. We paid £55 per night (January 2024)

No swimming pool.

Great location in front of the beach and close to many restaurants only 10min away by Tuk Tuk. Room was super big and comfortable for our family!

The location was great. Close to Unawatuna and turtle beach but far from the crowds. We could go swimming at the front of the hotel. Big garden and lovely staff for our 3 year or old son to run around and play

Bathroom needed updating but functional.

Proximity of the beach, lovely staff, food ok. Nice places to eat out. Loved all the nature around.

We looooooved the fact that we could just walk to the beach directly from the room. The location was pretty good as it was so close to Galle fort. Sandun made amazing food. So so tasty.The tea was so good. Gamini was very friendly. Both of them were very nice and helpful. They had a good understanding about the area too. So the staff was exceptional! The room was spacious and had all the basic amenities. It even had a huge water filter with hot water which was so helpful. Overall we liked the place.

In the morning it’s noisy road car sounds but we were fine with it

Isle of Thalpe is a unique and beautiful hotel with one step to the beach! Totally perfect service and kind people! We’re so grateful to Rasanga, Saman, Tharushka and Rahia for being helpful and friendly! Also there was a dog Ricky that I called Kiri, we gonna miss him! We enjoyed our time on Delawela beach even it was the end of season and ocean was stormy! It was beautiful and I enjoyed swimming in waves! Breakfast was great with Sri Lanka's omlet and fruits! Also we loved that we had the whole water cooler inside our kitchen. It was a great start of our journey on Sri Lanka! I gonna miss this place!

The chef here have magic in his hands. We ate the best srilankan food here. Special thanks to him. He's very sweet . Definitely try his fried rice and some chilli sause he made. Location is very beautiful and clean. Unlike other hotels they provide water can which is great. Breakfast was very good. We ate string hoppers.

Pricey. For what it offered. The rooms were hot without a/c. The cost of watermelon juice at LKR 900 was a rip off.

Proximity to beach. Friendly staff.

Room was very average. A bit disappointing

Location was amazing

Stayed in September 2023

Much too overpriced, nothing deluxe. Nothing like in the pictures at booking.com. Damp and musty smell. Need some renovation. Cockroaches in the room.

Right by the sea. Friendly staff and they offered nice breakfast and food was good.

nothing

location right on the beach. owners were amazing and helpful.. even let us release baby turtles into the sea. love our stay. breakfast was good.

Stayed in April 2023

Breakfast is disappointing. They seems very reluctant to offer nice bread, and offer very minimal fruit, eggs and tea/coffee. We had to pay extra for juice. Considering the price we paid, we expected better quality of everything. Our room was only cleaned once. The entrance looks like a building site. Its right on a busy road.

Over priced. The photos are much better than the reality. The bed is nice and comfy Bathroom is awful Location is ok. Nice to be by the beach, but it is not private as they advertise or great for swimming. We were surprised how different the reality is from the photos. We complained and the management offered us a discount, even so we’d prefer value for money
