It would be nice to have one bottle of water but not a complaint, just a suggestion.

Great location, less than 5 minutes to turtles and beach, several restaurants close by (or you can dine at Amour), quiet and peaceful. Friendly and helpful host (Don). Clean and spacious room. Kettle to boil water if you forget to bring enough. Terrific breakfast!

It was a very peaceful location with a lot of wildlife everywhere. The host was extremely helpful in suggesting places to try and helping me get to my next destination as well.

I liked everything!

Everything. The place is beautiful, clean, peaceful,.... we had dinner and breakfast at the terrace, surrounded by trees, monkeys... The food Don cooked for was also amazing and tasting. Don was extremely kind with us and helped us get access to the turtles. It really went beyond my expectations.

The property is very well maintained, and very clean. From our balcony we saw: monkeys & peacocks! The property Location is fantastic, I was initially a bit worried.. but you don’t want to stay in tangelle. You want to stay in amour turtle beach! The room is a 5 minute walk from the Beach, a selection of great restaurants & the national turtle sanctuary.. which at night you can see a mother nesting her eggs. The owner, Don was professional and went above and beyond to make us comfortable. He offers a menu, range of services including bike hire & safari tours at incredibly cheap prices! We enjoyed a authentic Sri Lankan meal overlooking the monkeys! We can both say this was our favourite accommodation: the owner was fantastic, it was a steal for the price (it could be double and we’d still come back!) and the property was very luxurious!

Don was so lovely and helpful, he couldn't do enough for us, super host. The property is in a really pretty little area with a few restaurants and it had a lovely feel to it. Lovely beaches but can ve very rough so not suitable for swimming

Seemed to have a problem with wifi in the afternoons ... is it perhaps metered? Bed was a little creaky ... probably just some joints need tightening.

Amour is in a quiet location, close to the beach. Beaches are beautiful. There is the opportunity to see turtles if that's your thing at Rekawa Beach. Really good breakfasts, served on your balcony from where you can watch countless birds and monkeys. Good sized room, with a desk area at the side, lovely balcony, massive bed, bathroom was modern. Host was great, really helpful and attentive. Provided good local info and organized onward transport for us.

The host is very kind and caring, he explained every attraction near by, even organized for us to see the turtles breeding. Location is great exactly near hy the beach and restaurants. It is very romantic and peaceful, not many tourist. Breakfast is delicious sri lanka style. We got homemade coconut wraps and onions, fruits, coffee, eggs, yogurt. A lot!

It would be good if water was automatically supplied as no local shops but the host could supply it.

Absolutely charming host. Very quiet location with very large room and garden with glimpses of lagoon view. A few minutes walk to the turtle beach.

I only didn't like having to leave, but I will be beck 100%. No complaints.

I am on a 3-week trip around Sri Lanka and this has been my No. 1 highlight. Accommodation was just as advertised, if not better - great location (5 minute walk to the beach), spacious airconditioned rooms, lovely jungly surroundings and great views while sitting outside and having breakfast every morning. Peacocks, squirrels, wild parrots - to name just a few species... normal daily views/visits without even stepping outside of the garden. Incomparable peacefulness. Sri Lankan breakfast was great and kept me full until dinner. They also provide lunch and dinner, upon request. Last but not least - Ruchira, the landlord, was the best host ever. He took me around when I just arrived to show me what is where, provided valuable tips and arranged for me to go see the sea turtles lay their eggs on the beach one night. All in all - the accommodation, as well as the village and the beach, is perfect for people who, like me, seek peace and quiet. The overall vibe is homey and friendly. There is no loud music, there are no beach bars, there are no watersports - amazing.

Water being provided would have been useful especially as there are no shops nearby.

The host was exceptionally accommodating when we had last minute change of plans, made delicious food and helped coordinate with Turtle Watch so we were able to see a turtle lay eggs!

The host was amazing. He helped us with everything. He organized a nice turtle trip and even supported us when we had problems with our rental car. The apartment is really nice and clean and you can see several kind of plants and animals while enjoying breakfast.

This is a lovely place close to the beach with a great owner. I arranged on a very short notice a trip with the owner to Ella, Safari and several other sightseeing spots in Sri Lanka. Dan, the owner, is truly special and very kind and gives you awesome tips for your vacation stay.

Everything was lovely

It was close to the beach. The room was spacious and quiet. The dinner was yummy. I particularly recommend the tuna and king fish. The service was excellent. The owner called the turtle sanctuary and they let us know when there was a sighting, which was lovely.
