I loved every single bit of it! The family, the food, my room, the nature around! It was the best place to relax and regain some new energy after a lot of traveling through Sri Lanka! I would recommend it to anyone who needs some peace and quiet, amazing food and a loving family! :)

The hosts are the best, super kind, friendly and helpful, can help with tours and transport. They made us the best breakfast. The rooms very big and are completely new well-equipped (rain shower, hot tab, hot water, mirror, kettle,...), great bathroom, nice terrace , the bed was huge and really comfy and everything was super clean. The entire facility is very modern and well maintained. Wonderful quiet village, cargils supermarket and fruet store is very close, less than 5 minutes walk. The place is very calm and close to Bentota city center, about 10 minutes ride. Close to lunch-dinner places. Would 100% recommend it. Thank you so much for everything!

I had a wonderful stay at Goalie Beachfront Resort. It's a beautiful luxury resort with stunning views in every direction. What truly amazed me was how seamlessly it blends with its surroundings—offering breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean from the private front balcony, and serene views of the wetlands from the back balcony. One of my favorite moments was enjoying the delicious breakfast from the in-house restaurant while watching the sunrise over the wetlands. The food was absolutely delicious. The resort also features a tropical garden with coconut trees private swimming pool with a jacuzzi, where I spent some relaxing time sunbathing and unwinding. The staff were incredibly friendly and always available whenever I needed assistance. The resort is located near to Hikkaduwa town. There are many things to do around this area like snorkelling, turtle farm, river safari etc. Since it’s close to the main road, getting around is easy—whether by public transport or tuk-tuk. The staff even arranged our airport transfer at a very reasonable price. You can rent a scooter from here as well. I will definitely be coming back to this amazing place next year!

We stayed at the Neem Tree for the first half of the February '25. And I want to say that it was probably most charming experience of the rest abroad. First of all because of the family who manages the guest house. They are lovely! I have so many thanks to them for their care and responsiveness! But okay, maybe it was something personal, so I say only facts about the guest house: our apartment was clean, toilet and shower was clean too, water heater worked well. Furniture and appliances were not brand new, but in a good condition, everything worked well. Conditioner worked well, too. Bed was big (200*210cm or something) any sturdy, mattress was exactly what I love: flat and even, medium-soft, it was obviously near to a brand new condition or of a really good quality, I slept very well. Pillows were good, too: no lumps or clots, or something, were felt like brand new or close to that. Bed lining and towels was in a good condition and clean. Location of the guest house is very convenient: - 1 minute walk to a beach, beach itself is really good - 1 minute walk to the beach restaurants (there are 2 of them, and they are pretty decent, bit pricey by standards of Lanka, but cousin is good, everything we ate were yummy, and I'm sure they work hard to cook the way non-lankians used to: it's not spicy at all, so the cuisine is great for those who can't eat spicy hot dishes) - 5-7 minutes walk to a local supermarket, were you can buy all basic goods you need: bottled water, vegs, meat, chicken, groceries, semi-finished food, freshly backed pizza, sandwiches and so on - 15 minutes walk to a bus and train station Conclusion: I don't want to say that it's absolutely perfect place, but we don't have absolute perfection in the world))) I want to say that I absolutely do recommend the guest house to stay. The comfort, the location, the way they treat you, the soul of the place - I loved it! As for me it's 10 out of 10. ❤️
