We enjoyed our stay at ANB Villas. They are in a perfect location, close to a number of beaches. The street is very quiet but still very close to the main Road. The Villas are very new. They were very clean and had a lovely balcony overlooking the garden and an ocean view. The staff were very friendly and helpful.
Nothing. All was good.
Great location ! Fantastic bay with good surfing, very quiet. Rooms are comfortable and very clean. Nice balcony with a sofa and a fan. We loved it !

very quiet place with excellent service, a big outside sitting area
we liked everything
Wir hatten ein Zimmer im 1. OG. Direkt vor unserem Zimmer war ein großer Balkon mit separatem sitzbereich. Dort haben wir morgens und abends oft gesessen, das war sehr schön. Das Zimmer ist ebenfalls hervorragend ausgestattet. Frühstück war zwar jeden Tag etwas anders aber immer lecker. Das Personal ist freundlich. Wir haben auch einen Roller über das Hotel gemietet und unsere Wäsche wachen lassen. Beides war preislich gut und hat super funktioniert.
Stort fint rum med väldigt sköna sängar. Bra med kök i familjerummet.
Lugnt och fint nära stranden
The staff was really sweet and helpful. And the food was lovely. From the balcony we saw a lot of beautiful birds and even a giant squirrel!

Sehr sauberes und gut ausgestattetes Zimmer. Wir haben uns sehr wohlgefühlt, würden das Hotel jedem empfehlen
Great location very close to great beaches for swimming and fabulous restaurants like break point Lovely room only marred by load displaying peacock on nearby room at 6am!
The owner and staff spoke poor English and given we cannot speak Sinhalese communication was difficult and sometimes confusing
Die Lage und die Gemeinschaftsfläche ist super. In einer Minute ist man beim Strand. Es ist auch eher ruhig und nett dort. Der Balkon ist Recht groß und hübsch. Der Personal ist sehr nett.
Die Zimmer wären ja schön, aber es wird leider nicht genügend geputzt. Es riecht leider unangenehm im Bad, wahrscheinlich müsste man da den Abfluss richten. Unter den Betten wischen. Die Küche ebenfalls grundreinigen.
Es war sehr sauber, ruhig und nahe am Strand gelegen. Das Zimmer war groß und komfortabel. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und entgegenkommend. Das Frühstück wechselte jeden Morgen und war reichlich.
Schönes Hotel in ruhiger Lage. Zimmer, Bad und Balkon waren sehr geräumig. Im Zimmer gab es einen Wasserspender. Mitarbeiter waren sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Frühstück variierte. Strände fussläufig gut zu erreichen. Viele nette Restaurants in der Umgebung.

Понравилось всё, номер супер свежий, есть все, что только можно, чайник, вода, мыльные принадлежности, фен. Новый кондиционер. Диваны на террасе идеальное решение, мы валялись на них до последнего перед сном. Накрывают вкусные завтраки, круто что каждый день немного по разному. Встретили велком дринком 🤗 Все везде чисто и уютно. До ближайшего пляжа 2 минуты, до silent beach 10 минут, мы все дни были на дальнем, он такой красивый мммм. Еще ребята готовят вкусный том ям. В общем остались лишь приятные воспоминания, советую 💫

Location is perfect - just 2 mins away from beach. The room is nice, comfy bed, AC working; hot water in the bathroom, nice little terrace to relax in the shade. Just around the corner is a tiny tiny supermarket to grab some fruits, biscuits and water. Really nice restaurants on the way. Breakfast at ANB is very good: eggs, hoppers, pancakes, fruits - there is always a variety. On our last day we left early and they made us a breakfast to go and helped to get a TukTuk. Super nice staff!
Everything was fine!
Sehr schöne, geräumige Zimmer, eigene Terrasse mit Liegen und Strandhandtüchern , die oberen Zimmer haben sogar Meerblick, fußläufig zum Strand (1min) und nahe Silent Beach, gutes Frühstück, freundliches Personal

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful room with a terrace. The room was lovely and very well-equipped – it had everything we needed, including a first-aid kit, kettle, fridge, cosmetics, and drinking water. The location is perfect: just a 2-minute walk to a stunning beach and about 10 minutes to the Silent Beach. Everything was very clean, and there was always hot water available. The host was extremely kind and helpful, making us feel comfortable throughout our stay. Breakfasts were delicious and varied – we stayed for two days and got different meals each morning, both of which were excellent. The freshly squeezed juices were also amazing. The surrounding area and garden are absolutely beautiful, creating a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere. Highly recommended!
ANB Surf View was absolutely perfect. The room was spotless, we had everything that was needed for a very comfortable stay. The location was great, it was a very short walk to a beautiful beach cove. Breakfast was great, it changed daily. Manoj and his wife ran a very tight ship, organised down to a T. We will definitely stay here again.
Great host, great breakfast. Beautiful garden! Nice little detail was the big drinking water dispenser in the room. Shower had hot water too.
The room was nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. We loved the little terrace in the stunning garden. The owner was very kind and location excellent right next to a beach. Breakfasts were amazing.
This is a fantastic place to stay. Peaceful with a lovely garden terrace. Delicious varied breakfast. 2 mins from the beach and a short walk to local restaurants and Silent beach.
The cottage is located in a quiet area, 15 minutes walk from Silent Beach. The room is spacious, there is air conditioning and beach towels, which is a very big plus. A hairdryer or umbrella is also available upon request. The owner agreed to early check-in without an additional fee, for which we are very grateful! The breakfast was very good, one of the best omelettes we have eaten in Sri Lanka.
The owner is nice, although a bit withdrawn. Communication in English is possible, but at a very basic level.
Great facilities
We had a wonderful stay in a very comfortable cottage, nestled in a beautiful garden full of animals and birds. Our daughters were thrilled with the two huge beds and their own private terrace. The breakfasts were the best, and every day offered something different. Walking distance to many coves for a swim or snorkel. A big thank you to Manoj and his lovely wife – you can truly feel the heart and care they've put into everything here.

Very clean, spacious room with a terrace in front where it’s possible to lay down and read/relax. Not even 200m from a very quiet beach where it’s possible to swim and snorkel (someone I spoke with was able to see turtles). Tasty and abundant breakfast, different every day. Friendly family taking care of everything. The price was absolutely fair
Not at all the owner’s fault but I was in the room on the ground floor and I could hear the family with children above me moving furniture, children crying etc. all the time. the owner promptly apologized for that even though I didn’t mention it.
Breakfast was varied, freshly prepared and big portions! Excellent start of the day. The location next to the beach. Large terrace to relax with great view. We were here with small children and they felt - like us - at home!
Nothing
Very spacious and comfortable room with a seating area outside to relax in among the many plants in the luscious garden. Only a very short walk to unakaruwa beach as well as silent beach a bit further down the coast. The breakfast was also delicious!
Nothing
We liked everything. The property is located in a quiet small fishing village. The property grounds etc are beautiful. There are turtles, peacocks, squirrels, fireflies at night etc. Everyone we met or passed by were genuinely friendly. Tuk tuks are cheap. The host Manoj and his wife cooked us a beautiful different breakfast every morning. Much to much food. We surfed and Aldo took a fishing trip with the lads from the village lucking into some nice tuna. There is a variety of options in the area for meals and the beers were always cold. As it is still off season, not all the restaurants were open.
It wasn't a problem but if you book through booking.com you will have to pay the owner Manoj in cash. Card payment not accepted. We payed him with Australian Dollars Also carry cash for paying for meals etc. in the smaller eateries.
3 of us from the UK stayed one night. It's a lovely guesthouse with a very good room. Breakfast was great. We'd have loved to have stayed longer if we'd had more time.
Beautiful setting, comfortable and clean rooms

We are a family and we loved ANB Surf View. It was perfect. We had the upstairs room, which was spacious and clean and had a little kitchen. The kitchen was handy for making some snacks for the kids after a few weeks of travelling. The terrace out the front was great for relaxing, looking over the gorgeous garden. The owners were so helpful and friendly. And the breakfasts were superb! Great location, just a short wander down to the beach - we all spent hours in the water. We hired surfboards from the friendly guy at the beach and watched the turtles surfacing for air.
Nice family room with two large beds. Beautiful garden outside, full of trees and animals. Wi-fi worked perfectly! (The best of all places we stayed in). We liked the shower in the garden, to remove the sand from the beach. We liked also little kitchen in the apartment. Breakfast was just perfect and so rich that it was enough for the midday snack too. Nice beaches and restaurants nearby, also small shop few steps away. Tuk-tuks were parked on the street right in-front of the house, so it was easy to explore the area. Owner was very friendly, he gave us also the mangos from the tree in the garden and bananas. We stayed for a week, and we felt it like in home!
Nothing to complain about. Maybe a recommendation that a fan on the terrace would be great. And maybe some extra chairs.
Amazing, chilled spot with beautiful garden and delicious breakfast.
We absolutely loved this place. Manoj, the host looked after us extremely well, nothing was too much trouble and he, his wife and family are really welcoming people. The place itself is a little paradise and which is very well maintained. View of the bay was outstanding and we sat marvelling at monkeys, peacocks, squirrels and a vast array of birds from the balcony, including fireflies at night. A 2 minute walk to the beach where you can swim all the time and watch the surfers do their stuff. It was so beautiful we extended our stay. Breakfast was both huge and tasty, something different every day.
Nothing- everything was perfect.
Loved this place ! I could have stayed there forever :) Everything is good quality — hard wood floors, nice cotton, the bed is firm, no flashing lights from the a/c when you try to go to sleep. I didn’t see a single insect. I had hoped to be closer to Tangalle, but ended up here, which was a blessing in disguise. The beach 2 min away was the least rough one (at Silent Beach, which is beautiful , I was knocked over by waves). The restaurant nearby — Wife’s Kitchen by Roshan was lovely for dinner and the breakfast at ANB surf view was one of the best I had. I have many dietary issues and they so beautifully prepared me a wonderful breakfast. This is a very hard working couple! (The pic of the room is after I stayed in it ! )
Perfect !
Lovely spacious and clean room Comfy bed and pillows Super friendly host Tasty varied breakfast Nice garden and a very quiet and relaxed space Close to some really nice beaches
Lovely spot, very close to a small, calm beach. The veranda was large enough for a table, lawn chairs, and drying rack. It was surrounded by beautiful plants and trees. We saw the peacock next door. Great breakfast. Clean.
All was good.
Very comfortable and clean. The owner was very helpful
Simple room, but very comfortable and a peak at the ocean from the large terrace. Huge comfy bed Very ample breakfast
Picking holes but some yogurt and more fruit at breakfast vs all the egg would have been lovely. Bathroom was classic SL wet room style, so usual wet everything, but in this weather dries in no time.
Fantastic location, 2 minutes to beach. Wonderful friendly host . Amazing breakfast variety, different every day. Comfortable and clean. Good choice of places to eat nearby and fantastic seafood. Safe beach to swim and surf.
Nothing
Excellent bost, enormous breakfast, very helpful in arranging anything we needed like onward travel
surf view is applicable but it is a couple of minutes from the beach
The breakfast was amazing. Local family running a guesthouse. Very helpful with recommendations, food and laundry. Very kid friendly

The breakfast was incredible! And the verandas were nice too
We stayed 5 nights in the family unit at the top floor and had a great time. The room is big and has a nice balcony with with ocean view and a colorful peacock hanging out on the neighbor house. The place is run by a lovely family that'll do all they can to make your stay comfortable. They provide a fantastic breakfast - huge, tasty and with new items every day. They make tuna with spicy sauce on top that we really enjoyed a lot. You're only a few steps from the Unakuruwa Bay and a nice 5 min. walk to Silent beach. Tangalle town is 10 mins/1000 rs by tuk-tuk. There a number of places to eat nearby and "Wife's Kitchen by Roshan" was our absolute favorite.
The beach could be cleaner.
Very warm welcome! Beautiful room with our own terrace, located just 2 minutes away from the first beach. The best breakfast! We stayed two nights and had two different types of breakfast!! Simply delicious! Clean rooms, comfortable bed! Fan and air conditioning! Highly recommend!
Calm, clean and beautiful. A 2 minute walk to an idyllic beach… there was even a small wave! Plus the breakfast was out of this world gorgeous and Manosh and his wife could not have been more hospitable
Nothing: it was wonderful
The breakfasts were amazing. We stayed for three nights, and on the middle day the host couple produced the most fantastic fish breakfast. The guest house is great, and is 1 min walk from a lovely beach cove which is very safe for swimming. The next door bay (20 min walk) has a fantastic restaurant located on the sand just above the waves. We had two wonderful evening meals there, including a spectacular one looking at a lightning storm far out to sea.
We really liked this hotel. We lived on the second floor in a large room with two large beds. There was air conditioning, a kitchenette, a refrigerator, a stove and a kettle. Large bathroom with hot shower and good water pressure. And the balcony on the second floor was simply magnificent. There was a good view and you could see a piece of the ocean. The balcony was very comfortable, there were even sun beds. We had a great time! Thanks to the owner and his wife!
Great location, many surf spots around
