Seven Turtles

We planned to stay at Seven Turtles as it looked great online. We booked a sea view room but when we got taken to the room the primary view was the garden. Only the top floors facing the sea actually have a sea view (and are the only rooms they have images of online which is misleading) yet they sell the lower floors as "sea view" and don't share images of these rooms - We said we were disappointed as the photos are misleading online to what we got and that we didn't have a sea view which we had paid a premium for but they said there was nothing they could do and didn't offer any added value/discount and told us if we didn't like it then we should look at choosing another hotel so we decided to leave and found alternative accomodation down the road at Good Karma which was actually much better value for money and we had our own private pool for less than what we were paying at Seven Turtles. My advice is if you want a guaranteed sea view, put in a request and have it confirmed before your trip that you have a top floor as you will almost certainly be disappointed if you arrive and can only see the garden and roofs of the garden rooms when expecting a lovely view of the ocean ✌

We chose this hotel because our friends recommended it. We stayed here after intense trip around Sri Lanka, and it was a perfect relaxing experience. Beautiful endless beach, spacious rooms, huge balcony, clean pool and friendly staff. Also we loved hotel’s dogs. And the food! Both local and European meals were delicious! Highly suggest you to have this exceptional experience :)

Superb place right on the beach. Stayed for 1 night but would like to have stayed longer. Came with 2 kids and they loved it too. Nice little pool that we used since it was not season for swimming in the big waves. Very friendly staff who served excellent food. Would recommend this place any day.

We stayed here for 6 nights and absolutely loved it. The room was large, spacious, clean and had a great feel to it. The bed was large and amazingly comfortable The balcony looked out to sea through some palm trees and it was wonderful to just sit and relax, especially in the mornings. When we arrived we were a bit worried as usually we like to walk to different restaurants. There are a few along the track but the food at Seven Turtles was so good and varied that we barely left the resort for the whole six days for anything than wildlife spotting The breakfasts were great and everything was so fresh. The eating area is a raised platform on the beach that looks out to sea - fabulous. The owner is very eco friendly and also has adopted two very well behaved and cute street dogs. We did a tour to see turtles laying eggs just along the beach. A Tuk tuk there and back was only a few pounds The staff and owners were exceptional and very accommodating. We hope we will be able to return here, there were no downsides for us.

we stayed at 7 turtles in August. We were fine and the hosts were very kind. the resort's two dogs keep guests company without disturbing them but there is a third dog who is always with them. she is very good and shy... please adopt her too and sterilize her 🙏🏻❤️

Hotel is small and on a very quiet beach. You have to enjoy just laying in sun and listening vawes. Personel here are really nice and owner of this hotel is so helpful. Our greetings for everyone. I had mixed our dates and they eaven let us change our accomodation dates. Food in restaurant is soo good. We had room 7 and balcony is just great. View to sea!!!

Absolutely brilliant stay! The owner makes sure every customer is looked after well .Lovely cosy resort by the beach, which had a clean stretch of sand . Glad we chose this quieter part of the island and this lovely resort to stay! Food was excellent- choice of European and local cuisine to choose from. Spa services were very good and reasonably priced. The gardens in the resort were carefully maintained and shows the attention to detail ,by the owners! Wish we really stayed longer and sure will come back in the future!

The hotel is teriffic! Very cozy and neat. No mold in bathroom this is really good work in such climate. The host are so pleasant. They give us bicycles to explore location. It was amazing. Rice fields, other beaches, temple, countrysides. Breakfast perfect, huge portions (porridge, fruits, eggs). Dinner best cooked al dente pasta! Fresh fish steak. Everything is really delicious. The atmosphere is warm and friendly. Recommend 10 of 10 😚💙

Being locals, this was our 1st visit to this particular coastline of Sri Lanka. It was an amazing time at a super place. We spent 2 nights from 19-21 August 2022. Everything was really great and we had a great time. The pool was clean, the beach was un spoilt, the food was good and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Was nice to meet the owner Constantine himself at the hotel and he was very hospitable. It's tough times these days in Sri Lanka for the hospitality side and that's probably a reason why there was not so much food choices but that was ok. What we had was just good enough. Perhaps the cocktails can be made more presentable. Christo, Melanie & Arianna +94 716 805 900
