Mawella Beach Resort Tangalle — Hotel in Sri Lanka

The resort is nestled along the pristine shores of Mawella Beach, offering breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean. The serene ambiance and lush tropical surroundings immediately put me at ease upon arrival.

The accommodations were comfortable and well-appointed, with spacious rooms that provided all the necessary amenities for a relaxing stay. I especially enjoyed the private balcony overlooking the sea, where I could unwind and enjoy the gentle sea breeze.

The highlight of my stay was definitely the beach. Mawella Beach is a secluded paradise with soft golden sands and crystal-clear waters. I spent hours lounging by the shore, soaking up the sun and taking leisurely walks along the coastline.

The resort's restaurant offered a diverse selection of delicious dishes, ranging from fresh seafood to traditional Sri Lankan cuisine. Each meal was expertly prepared and served with a smile, enhancing the overall dining experience.

The staff at Mawella Beach Resort were friendly and attentive, always ready to assist with any requests or inquiries. Their warm hospitality made me feel right at home throughout my stay.

While the resort could benefit from some minor renovations and updates, overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my time at Mawella Beach Resort Tangalle. It's the perfect destination for anyone seeking a peaceful beach getaway...

Nice and cozy place. Caring and friendly personnel. The chef cook is attentive to your diet. Feel free to tell him, if you have any diet or allergy, though note that he specialises in local sri lankan food. European menu is also available. The nearest small shop/stall with water, cola and packed ice cream is about 10-15 minutes walk. No restaurants near, except for nearby small hotels. Nearest large market and shops are in Tangalle: 15 minutes ride by bus. Don't forget to take the hotel card with you to ensure the right bus station when getting back from town. Rooms are worth its price. Water pressure in the shower is fine. There is also hot water boiler in the shower available, but we did not use it. Rooms are air conditioned. If you want any excursions, the hotel manager is more than happy to help you at the best prices. If you are travelling by yourself, you can get travel directions or best bus route advice as well as the advice on best local souvenirs and food. The beach itself is very long and deserted. At 4-5 am you can see locals, taking their colored boats for fishing not to far from the hotel. The sunset on the beach is not available: it sets ont the opposite side, but the sunrise will be seen clearly. The wild peacocks can be seen and heard at the hotel, which is, however, usual...

The resort is situated on beautiful Mawella Beach about half way between Tangalle and Dikwella. Each Bungalow has an ocean view and a lovely pool. The food at the resort is typical Sri Lankan fare - nothing too exciting, but acceptable for our four day stay. Our first bungalow had a very strong cat urine smell. The manager said that it was not cats, but monkeys. That didn't really make it acceptable, but they moved us to another bungalow quite willingly. This bungalow had a leaky toilet and smelled strongly of human urine. They came and cleaned the bathroom everyday, but by night time it was horrible again. The other party in our group had a fantastic room with no odours. The staff were very nice and the grounds and pool were very clean. There are two beach restaurants, one on either side of the resort that were fantastic. All in all, the resort has a lot of potential, but it is very tired and needs numerous upgrades. Double check your booking when you arrive as one person in our group had breakfasts included and we overlooked that part and didn't - and we paid...
