    Fabulous breakfast! Delicious granola pots. Friendly and helpful staff. Lovely location.

    More beds around the pool area would be good.

    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 tours the hotel offer should be run more professionally

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

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

    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 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.

    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.

    Breakfast was incredible. Tasty. Great quality and too much quantity for us. All meals were exceptional. The most romantic and relaxing place we have ever stayed. We will be back

    It was all great

    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.

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

    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.

    The pool area is quite nice and the location is great to get away from the busy day to day

    For the money paid, we were expecting a much much better property and rooms, it was quite a disappointment

    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.

    No complaints.

    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

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

    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.

    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.

    Small resort around 10 rooms but still with all the amenities: Swimming pool, beach sun loungers, spa for treatments, day trips, large clean room, restaurant with many options.
