Pros:

номер хорош, балкон отличный, очень внимательные хозяева, отлично гулять по берегу, а ночью слышать шум волн

Cons:

Кондиционер предлагался за отдельную доплату, но вентилятора хватило.
Купаться сложно-так и не смогла найти место без волн

Peaceful spot to take in the ocean and unwind
Pros:

We stayed at two places on Talalla beach and this was our favorite.

We stayed in room #3, which did not have a beach view balcony. However, only three rooms were being rented. The other two had private balconies, and there was a third balcony overlooking the ocean in between those two. In effect, we had that third balcony all to ourselves. The room itself was pleasant. A little bit of noise during evening traffic hours, but was rather quiet when sleeping. Everything was comfortable and modern.

The dining area is incredible. Fantastic views. For breakfast, they provided Sri Lankan food instead of toast and eggs (we requested this and they happily obliged). They also had a refrigerator, stovetop burner, and some basic cookware. We didn't think we'd use this initially, but all the restaurants on Talalla seemed to be overpriced with small portions. We ended up taking the 5 to 10 minute walk to the grocery store, buying some basics, and cooking our own lunch and dinner. We also would go every few days into the nearby Matara to stock up on tropical fruits.

Our favorite part was of course that the property was right on the beach. The outdoor garden area also had several comfortable lounge spots, where we spent hours relaxing and gazing into the ocean.

The owner grew up on this piece of land, long before it was a tourist destination. By staying here, you are literally supporting a local couple with deep ties to land, as opposed to someone who came in and built a big hotel. They were very friendly and helpful, while also offering lots of privacy and space.

Also, the owner offered to drive us around to different tourist destinations in his car at a price that either matched or was lower than what we could get from the Pick Me app. Some of the other hotels on the beach really tried to gouge you on the price. It was refreshing to be treated fairly and kindly.

Overall, incredible value and also just a really nice peaceful vacation spot.

Pros:

We had a wonderful stay in Talalla. The host and his family are such welcoming, helpful, and kind people. Even when we needed a ride during the holidays, the whole family helped us out and drove us. That wasn’t something to be taken for granted — we truly appreciated it.

Breakfast was delicious and came with a perfect view. The garden is beautiful and perfect for relaxing in a calm environment. The beach was clean and almost empty when we visited. We could have stayed in Talalla much longer than we did. It's a perfect homestay.

Highly recommended
Pros:

We had a great 4 nights at KVA and it’s very good value for money. Situated right on the beach with a huge, shaded garden (much bigger than we expected) and cooling sea breeze. The owners Indra and Wasantha are really friendly and helpful (even bringing us complimentary fruit juice when we were relaxing in the garden) along with the ever cheerful Vinny who helps out. Good home cooked breakfast available too if you want it. Our simple room had a balcony with sea view (recommended!) and rooms now have A/C. Also, washing machine available to guests. Talalla beach is beautiful and KVA is at its quieter end (not that any of it gets busy) and plenty of places to eat and drink on the beach (shout out to Muts cafe and Tides). Sea swimmable though you’ll need to watch the waves / current and the far end is calmer.

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

Le stanze erano spaziose e pulite, quelle con terrazza verso il mare assolutamente spettacolari. Gli host accoglienti e disponibili. Abbiamo potuto fare la lavatrice e utilizzare la cucina e il frigorifero.
La spiaggia è stupenda. Le onde potenti ma si riesce a fare il bagno perché verso riva l' acqua è bassa e le onde più lente. Dall' altra parte della spiaggia si trovano vari ristoranti. L' ultima sera gli host ci hanno preparato un' ottima cena di curry a prezzo economicissimo. (1200 rupie a persona)

Cons:

Nulla

Prachtige ligging en ongelooflijk lieve gastheer en vrouw.
Pros:

Zo een mooi zicht aan het mooie strand Talalla beach.. De kamer is heel leuk en heeft een eigen terras. Je kijkt naar de zee en het strand en de prachtige tuin waar ligbedjes werden geïnstalleerd. Je krijgt ook strandhanddoeken. Het koppel dat je ontvangt is zooo lief. Je kan er ook ontbijten. Er is een open keuken waar je de ijskast kan gebruiken, er staat een microgolf en een wasmachine die je mag gebruiken. We zijn hier in low season en er was echt nog niets open. De eerste avond omdat we nog geen scooter hadden is de eigenaar voor ons om take away en bier gereden. Ze zijn zo betrokken en lief en zacht. We bleven er 3 nachten. Omdat het nu regenseizoen is is de zee erg wild, die hoor je wel heel erg als je het raam openlaat. Dus om te slapen beter raam dicht.🙂.Als we weg gingen vroeg in de ochtend om een bus naar Ella te nemen aan de overkant van de straat kwam de eigenaar mee met ons. Tip: er passeren rond 5u45 en rond 6u30 2 bussen die rechtstreeks naar Ella rijden zonder dat je moet overstappen. Het is een semi luxury local bus richting Badulla. Ze hebben iets meer confort als de gewone local bussen en doen iets minder stops. De bus deed er 5 uur over en kostte amper 3 euro voor 2 personen. Je huurt best een scooter om de prachtige Zuidkust te verkennen.De eigenaars weten waar je terecht kan hiervoor.

Cons:

Niets. Let wel, er is geen airco, enkel een ventilator boven het bed.

Pros:

Ottima posizione, con accesso diretto alla spiaggia e un giardino carino e curato. Camera con balcone vista mare davvero notevole. Possibilità di avere anche la colazione ad un ottimo prezzo.

Cons:

Da migliorare la pulizia. Forse complice la bassa stagione, la stanza non era molto curata e sia le lenzuola che il bagno non erano in condizioni ottime.

Peaceful paradise is a must
Pros:

Everything - The people, the place, the views, the vibes. Hot showers with good pressure, fresh coconuts off the tree delivered to your room complimentary. Functioning kitchen including fridge / freezer. Washing machine. Private beach at your doorstep with comfy lounges. Friendly and wonderful hosts. The sound of the waves from your bed at night.

Best stay in Sri Lanka - not to be missed!!

Cons:

Nothing - no aircon was not an issue, the room has so much air flow / is super breezy.

Mosquitoes were also less present here than most places we stayed across SL and we credit the breeze.
