Quiet location in the jungle hills

This place was exactly what we were expecting. A large spacious apartment up in the hills, away from the beach. The owners were helpful and friendly but left us to do our own thing with no pressure to do any tours etc. It's value for money. We enjoy walking so had no issues with the 15 minute walk to the beachfront. The wifi is super slow (worst we had during our stay in SriLanka) and non existent at times, but we are on holiday so it forced us to put down our social media and just chat or dream... Bathroom just outside the apartment which was a small issue at night fumbling around with keys to unlock the apartment door to go to the loo.. Mostly hot water but once or twice there wasn't but it's hot and humid so no big issue. Would I go again, yes. Would I recommend to friends and family, yes. Thanks for a great stay

10-minute walk from Unawatuna Beach

Me and mother visited Unawatuna in April and we have chosen the Dionis Villa because the location of the villa seemed very convenient. Indeed we found it very suitable for all our needs! Waves are pretty strong at Unawatuna beach so we walked to the stunning Jungle beach which is just about 10 minutes walk from the villa. Even though we don't drive, it was super easy to catch a tuk-tuk back when it got dark. Owners Francesca with Raju, their beautiful daughter and Lulu, the cutest dog, were very friendly and welcoming, they invited us to have a traditional breakfast during Sri Lankan New Year, it was a very nice gesture! We were staying in a two bedroom villa which was a perfect size for us, equipped with a kitchen and all necessary tools. I was a little bit sceptic about fans before we arrived, but it was actually perfect for cooling! I had a great sleep all nights with a fan only, open windows also give some air flow. Villa is surrounded by trees so it doesn't get extremely hot inside. Towels are provided. It was very quiet around, not much of traffic outside, just some occasional cars and bikes, well, and birds of course :) wi-fi is good. Also, I would like to say a massive "Thank you" to Raju which approached my desire to learn surfing, offered to join him to hit the waves. He offered me to borrow his board and showed me how to surf. All this was just a friendly offer, which was unexpectedly pleasant! I loved my first wave and now there is no need for me to take an instru

Familjärt hotell

Fantastiskt hotell i ”djungeln” med växter o djur som närmaste grannar. Mycket trevlig, hjälpsam o generös personal som gjorde allt för att msn skulle trivas. Ekologiskt tänk med fantastiskt vacker o ekologiskt god frukost o lunch. Beroende av tuktuk till stad o strand. Lugnt o skönt!

Mahtava paikka luonnon keskellä

Tätä paikkaa todella voi suositella. Omistajat Raju ja Francesca ovat todella mukavia, ja auttavat mielellään kaikessa. Sijainti on kukkulan päällä Unawatunassa, jolloin paikasta on helppo kulku kummallekin rannalle ja "viidakko" alkaa aivan nurkan takaa! Raju surffaa, joten jos surffi kiinnostaa hän mielellään auttaa asiassa ja saattaa jopa itse tulla mukaan. Huone on siisti, ainoa miinus on vähän epämukava sänky. Vahva suositus!
