A little slice of paradise – Sergeant House Boutique Villa Staying at Sergeant House felt like entering a private oasis where every detail is designed for peace, beauty, and complete relaxation. The lush garden is a dream – full of tropical plants, elegant stone paths, and the soothing sound of nature. Monkeys leap playfully between the trees, colorful koi swim lazily in the pond alongside gentle turtles, and the entire atmosphere is one of balance and serenity. The pool is simply perfect – crystal clear and surrounded by greenery that gives you the feeling of being deep in nature, yet with all the comfort of a boutique retreat. The rooms are beautifully decorated, combining elegance with tradition, and offer total privacy and comfort. Breakfast and meals at the restaurant are a delight – fresh, flavorful, and served in a tranquil setting that makes you want to linger just a little longer each time. The staff are kind, discreet, and attentive, always ready to help with a genuine smile. Sergeant House isn’t just a place to stay. It’s a place to breathe deeply, to slow down, and to feel genuinely at home in the most beautiful way. Whatever I write feels too little – this place is an experience in itself.

​My time at Nice Days Resort in Unawatuna was simply unforgettable and exceeded all my expectations. Everything, from the moment we arrived until we checked out, matched perfectly and felt luxurious.The Double Room with Sea View was immaculate—spotlessly clean, incredibly spacious, and the bed was supremely comfortable. Waking up to the sound of the ocean and stepping out onto the balcony for that stunning view was the definition of a perfect holiday.​The staff and service were a true highlight. The team was warm, exceptionally attentive, and genuinely dedicated to making our stay wonderful. Any request was handled immediately and with a smile. The resort creates such a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere; it's the ideal escape from the bustle of the town.

What great accomodation. Right on the beach front, the pictures don’t do the place justice. Aircon worked a treat. The balcony was so lovely sitting out watching the sunset. Was much more private than we though when sleeping two couples. Split living areas which was awesome. Our host Romesha was so helpful and the team downstairs at the diving school and bar to the right of the building were so helpful, with food, drinks and sun beds available. Highly recommend.

This place is MAGICAL. From the moment we arrived we where in awe at the beautiful property. The photos on booking.com do not do it justice. Each room was stunning, the open plan dining/living area had space for big groups and the pool and garden where so well maintained. Beautiful property. The staff made our trip- we became like a little family. They could not do enough for us day to day. The chef prepared some of the best food we have ever tried and totally catered to all of our needs. Nothing was too much for them and they went above and beyond without being asked. They genuinely made our stay there magical.

The room was wonderfully furnished with a beautiful bathroom with hot water. Amazing price due to it being Low Season. Right on the Beachfront and the restaurant food was really good. The bed was super comfortable which earns a big tick from me. Close to all manner of shops and restaurants and ATMs. Staff were wonderful and happy to assist with all my needs. Room was very clean. Tea kettle and cups and glasses supplied.

What a wonderful location right on the beachfront. Staff were very friendly and accommodating. We enjoyed having dinner and breakfast on the balcony of our Cabana overlooking the waves. Wifi and air conditioner worked well. Turtle beach is nearby - we saw one turtle while swimming out the front!

We absolutely loved the location. Right on the beachfront and central of the small town with lots of restaurants and shops. Kevin in particular was an absolute star, went above and beyond - cobstantly smiling, welcoming and all the staff couldn't do enough for us. Kiki was our favourite furry friend. The free shuttle to use the pool at the sister Hotel was really great and an added bonus. Would definitely recommend staying here.

The room was clean, comfortable, and equipped with everything we needed for a cozy stay. Located right on the beachfront, the property's location couldn't be more convenient. The staff members were friendly, attentive, and always ready to assist with any queries or requests I had.

Location is very good, isolated beach only for hotel guests. Food and Services were out of this world, really excellent. Rooms were excellent, very big with ocean view, huge bathroom. Room boy Thusahara gave his best to have all we need in our room. One can walk on the beach and reach in 10 m several surf schools. and is 3km away from Galle Fort, Tuktuks being available in front of hotel. 25mins walk from Jungle beach (excellent secluded beach) or Peace Pagoda, worth to visit for magnificent views

The property is located right on the beach, with great views of the ocean. The room and bathroom had large glass windows to enjoy the view. However, general upkeep of this building is needed. The dining section is small with outdated furniture. The pool is pretty much a part of the lobby, meaning laying in the loungers is visible to guests checking in (pro for checking in, but con for laying by the pool).
