    The tours the hotel offer should be run more professionally

    Everything was good here and the in-house spa was very professional, food was nice, staff were friendly and the outdoor area was great for relaxing. You can tell the people here care about their business.

    The road to access to the property is quite bad, it takes a while to drive in and out of the property.

    The rooms and the facilities are amazing. Shower is perfect and bed too. The staff from the Spa were professional and caring.

    What more can you say about this hotel – it’s paradise. A slice of heaven surrounded by beautiful, untouched nature, wildlife, and endless beaches. It’s impossible not to fall in love with this place. Amazing food, stunning surroundings, and the option to arrange trips and massages – both of which were perfect. The staff will go above and beyond for you, and you always feel genuinely welcome. And don’t be afraid of the local hotel dogs – they’re the kindest and most loyal companions. They’ll walk with you all the way to the sea and keep a gentle watch over the guests. They’re always happy to receive a little affection.

    We chose the hotel based on the photos where it stands in the middle of the jungle. But today there is construction of other hotels nearby. The first impression of the construction is bad, but then you understand that you do not see it when you are relaxing in the hotel. The pool is small, but sufficient. For us there are no big minuses at all.

    We took two rooms with an ocean view - they are amazing. The panoramic glazing of the spacious rooms gives the feeling that you wake up in the jungle on the shore. Special respect to the chef, for a micro hotel there is a very wide menu with high-quality dishes. Service at a high level. The beach is amazing - you have to see it. This hotel has its own atmosphere of a private villa. It feels like everything around works only for you. For our family it is better than a suite in a 5* hotel.

    If you’re looking for the kind of place where the loudest thing you’ll hear is the ocean, book Seven Turtles and don’t look back. This is one of those rare properties that’s even better than the pictures. It’s beautifully maintained—lush, green, and thoughtfully laid out. There’s a main building with rooms on stilts overlooking the pool, and two bungalows tucked on either side. The whole place wraps around a wide, private stretch of beach that feels practically untouched. The vibe is peaceful and intimate. This is not a party resort, and thankfully, not a playground for kids either. It’s more of a couples’ escape: private, romantic, and wonderfully quiet. Even with a few other guests around, we barely noticed. The sound of the waves does a wonderful job of muffling voices, and the staff has done a great job creating secluded spaces to relax. Rooms were spotless, the bed was comfortable, the A/C worked, and the food was fresh and well-priced. Honestly, we had no complaints. The staff were friendly and helpful, without hovering. Everything just… worked.

    I had wrongly assumed this lovely little hotel would be adult only, as it's such a remote, romantic spot. There were only a couple of babies/toddlers, but it changed the vibe (everyone else there was clearly all 'loved-up'!). It was just a bit disappointing. There's nothing there for children (sea too rough), and 'adult only' would have made it even more relaxing for everyone.

    Perfect place for a peaceful getaway. Small, quiet, with a large choice of good food....set on a stunning, deserted beach.

    No complaints.

    Seven Turtles are located right in front of the beautiful beach - albeit - sea there is quite rough and swimming in it is probably not quite safe. However, long walks along the beach are amazing. Property itself is very clean, hence a great food and drink options. Breakfast is generous, room very big - both ocean view and park view are very large. Pool is big enough to swim in it - not laps to make you an Olympic champion, but still a good size pool. We liked that prices offered for activities were actually in line with what local operators charged. It all seemed very fairly priced. We know that owners are currently working on making the property bigger - they own the parcel next to the resort. If we were ever to return to Sri Lanka, we would stay there again.

    Some of the menu items can be a bit hit and miss. But I recommend the tuna steak as it was excellent.

    Great spot, wonderful pool and spa facility’s. Tranquil and there wasn’t any construction noise that they were worried about before I arrived. Very relaxing stay

    We were at first a bit surprised that there is really nothing around the hotel (no restaurants etc) but it’s ok because you have the most beautiful beaches very close.

    Beautiful pool and restaurant area, nice and big rooms, and especially amazing beach right in front of the hotel, which is super long and empty. We saw the best beaches around this area which we went to with a rented scooter. Would recommend this as a place to relax and spend time at beaches.

    Unfortunately there is some construction work next door but it didn’t bother us as we spent our time on the beach.

    Loved the location on an isolated beach. The Sea view room was perfect. Very big and very clean. The food was excellent and the staff were all very kind. We had the most incredible massages at the on-site spa.

    Our stay at Seven Turtles was really special, we were treated so nicely by all staff and our room was lovely. The whole place is very peaceful and we did not feel the works next door (which they kindly pre-warned us about) distracted from the tranquil location. Ours was a sea view room and the loudest noise was the sound of the sea which was very nice! Thank you, from Hannah and George.
