Authentic Sri Lanka experience with a fantastic host and a breathtaking view
Pros:

Fantastic location with the room facing a beautiful view with the sea, right by a surf spot and where you also see the traditional fishermen on sticks. There's direct acess to the Ahangama beach from the lovely garden. Manta Ray is owned by local people, which makes all the difference. The staff is super friendly and the host goes above and beyond to make you feel at home offering help for anything you may need. Honest good people here who want you to have a great time. The rooms are confortable and the location is all you can ask for. Highly recommended.

Average at best and not worth the price paid.
Pros:

The location and ambience beside the ocean was amazing. Very close to the town and restaurants

Cons:

The bathroom door was broken and shabbily fixed with a latch. The wifi did not work increasing our costs for data roaming. The rooms were not serviced despite requesting numerous times and over 5 nights this was required!

We had requested 4 separate beds and had a stretcher for the 4th bed which was not made up - had to be requested.

Pros:

Amazing location, so close to everything and right beside the beach. They have 2 amazing dogs that were one of the best things about the hotel.

Cons:

The hotel lacked general maintance everything. Things were broken and outdated through the property. We stayed for 4 days and room was not cleaned, no clean towels, toilereees or anything. The AC in the room was extremely loud, cockroaches in the bathroom. Pictures on booking.com are not relevant at all to the conditions of the rooms. This hotel has potential to be incredible but needs major renovation and maintenance.

Pros:

Čistý a prostorný areál, ale bez pláže. Na moře se dá pouze dívat.

Cons:

Na pláži se vůbec nedá koupat protože tam jsou obrovské kameny. Celý večer hlučná hudba z vedlejšího baru. Asi by to chtělo technickou údržbu…jako zavírání dveří nebo rozbitá lehátka na zahradě.
