"Great location on the beach. Great pool and hanging area. Lovely staff. Good breakfast. Only improvements could be a small fridge and tea/coffee making facilities in room. Overall a wonderful stay."
"Nice and comfy room. Beautiful garden with many beautiful birds and other wildlife.
Close to the beach. Plus is for the distance to Galle Road (which is very noisy).
The dinner was good, but far from great. The curry’s are way to salty. Same as for the breakfast (don’t try the chocolate pancakes).
Beautiful place and very friendly staff.
- Big minus for the hotels own landfill that you see if you take a walk outside the fences. They should really clean that up. Not ok!

"I left my heart in Talalla Retreat.
Incredible staff who were so welcoming and hard working, the Retreat itself is stunning. I had an upstairs bedroom so was able to fully enjoy the surroundings. The food was incredible. I felt super safe. I didn’t want to leave.
A must visit - and please do as the Sri Lankan people need visitors right now. "
"He Sea Anemone was very pleasant . Talalla was very relaxing and the family was very nice, our room had everything we needed , fair value for your money!"
"Stayed for two weeks in September 2023. For starters, the host family at Talalla Freedom are wonderful. Helpful, friendly, adjusted to my food allergies, went over and beyond. Rs 250 for a pot of fresh tea. The pool is lovely and well kept, the view and access to Talalla beach is phenomenal (as long as you don't have any mobility issues. Beds are Sri Lanka firm but comfy. You can sit in a nice recliner with your tea and watch the monkeys walk by. The birds in the area are beautiful. Be aware...
"Absolutely loved our stay with our two puppies. Gorgeous property. From front desk to spa to kitchen staff everyone was very friendly and attentive.

"Contro: 20 minuti di cammino in salita per arrivare giù in paese o in spiaggia tutti di strada dissestata e non illuminata, con tuk tuk costo 500, 1000 lr. Contro: gestito da due ragazzi di 18 e 20 anni che NON parlano inglese. Contro: camera tripla vuol dire letto matrimoniale king size da 180cm e non 3 letti Contro: pulizia della camera solo su richiesta al 4 gg l abbiamo sollecitata come il cambio di asciugamani. Contro: non danno teli da spiaggia contro: acqua tiepidina Pro: costo economico...
"Vet inte riktigt hur jag ska placera det här hotellet. Det är nytt och fortfarande relativt fräscht. Det känns som ambitionen finns där för vad det är, men man når inte riktigt dit.
Det känns som att det fattas något för att få en mer personlig touch och för att man ska trivas fullt ut.
Frukostbuffén är okej, men inte mer än så. Gott om färsk frukt dock, vilket är en stor bonus. Har maj inte specifika frukostbehov, så hittar man förmodligen något som man vill äta.
Det som hotellet vinner...
"Good parts. Location for beach, size of axcomodation, privacy, quite modern.
Bad parts.. paid for breakfast NO BREAKFAST!!! NO WIFI AT ALL!!! NO HOT WATER AT ALL!! Then there was other things that it said the accomodation had but wasnt there...ie desk, slippers, bottled water.
Worst of all the accomodation is next door to a temple that has chanting through a loud speaker starting at 05.30am and lasts about 45 minutes. This is repeated at 6pm....very loud."

"The Seascape is a beautiful property right on a quiet section of beach close to SK Town surf break. Stunning views.
Our family of three spent 3 nights.
The staff was incredibly friendly, helpful and kind.
Breakfast each morning was delicious and the evening dinner specials were fantastic; varied Sri Lankan cuisine.
Highly recommended"
