"What a perfect start to a holiday in Sri Lanka. The staff were incredible and this hotel is beautifully located on the beach. We loved taking time to relax and also wonder up the beach to see the local fisherman bringing their catch in. We even had a beautiful meal under the stars. Would 100% recommend!"

"Lovely staff could not do more. Check parties before arrival- I could not sleep past midnight one evening due to party. Room does not include breakfast which seems a little mean as it can be bought for 3-4 dollars at restaurant. Recommended."

"Food was amazing, the service exemplary, the beach and property was stunning. The villa was a beauty with its beach view."

"Enjoyed my stay. Very attentive and friendly host. Breakfast is really good."

"Very nice place and staff were friendly. "

"Waterland is a small resort of around 5 individual villas on the banks of a river. We stayed in Elephant villa which has a small, private pool and decking area. We loved the indoor/ outdoor bathroom with fish! The area is quiet and great for just sitting and watching the wildlife. Food is eaten in a small restaurant and although choice is limited, the quality was great. The staff were friendly and helpful. Slight downsides... The resort is really tucked away ,so be sure your taxi driver knows where he is going. Ours took a while to locate the hotel. We wished the staff would collect the plastic waste that washed up at the end of the decking, or provided waste sacks for us to do it. Its a shame having to overlook plastic and garbage as you gaze at the scenary. There isnt anywhere to walk to so just go and enjoy relaxing ."
