The Waves Beach Chalets

Small, higher-end place on the beach (you hear the sound of the waves from the bedroom). Located in a quiet part of Tangalle. The chalets are very comfortable and tastefully furnished, the outdoor area is very well maintained. There's good shampoo, conditioner, body wash in the bathroom, a hair dryer, the AC works well. What made the place special: - the people (the owner and the entire staff) is extremely helpful and professional. The service on the level of a luxury hotel. They helped us plan activities, find a TukTuk, provided laundry service, etc. - you are in the middle of the nature. From the table where you have breakfast, you see the beach (usually empty), you see all kinds of animals (monitors, mongooses, monkeys, maybe turtles if you are lucky) and birds, etc - the Sri Lankan breakfast is very good - we didn't try the rest of the menu The waves are strong almost everywhere in the area, but there's a corner 5 minutes protected by a reef where it is easy to swim. This place is as good as it gets. There are a few luxury hotels if you want to splurge, but their location isn't as secluded, you aren't as close to the nature and the ocean.

The quiet location right next to a dreamy and remote beach is unbeatable. Chalets are well equipped, the garden is beautiful and there is lots of greenery as well as animals (such as monkeys) around. Many breakfast options (Sri lankan as well as continental) available. Rooms are clean and we had the best bathroom of our trip here. Most of all we were thankful to have Mahesh as our host. He helped us with our every need and even served us coffee before an early morning safari at 5am. Wifi connection was very good too.

I loved everything. A beautiful, quiet place. A wonderful tropical garden, where you can see a large variety of wildlife from the breakfast table. A beautiful, super clean chalet with all amenities. Kind andl helpful people who pampered us. Excellent Sri Lankan food. The grilled seer fish with buttered vegetables was as exceptional as the rice and curry. The staff are not only helpful, but knowledgeable, too. We have learned much about Sri Lankan cuisine and many other things. The manager has helped us plan and organize our onward trip, showing us new options. A home far away from home.I will certainly come back!

Our chalet was super comfortable and seconds from the beach. We also had our own table for breakfast and dinner in the middle of nature with view of the ocean. We could see monkeys and peacocks. The team was just fabulous and very attentive to our needs. If you wish to be a little far from everything else, that’s the best place for couple of days!

The accommodation is incredibly beautiful. It is located on Marakollya Beach, almost at the end of Tangalle, promising pure nature and beautiful solitary walks on an absolute dream beach. The beds were comfortable, there was a superb mosquito net, and even a cozy bedside lamp. While showering, you could see the trees and the sky through the large glass roof, making it feel like pure luxury. However, if you're looking for parties and hustle, this might not be the right place. For me, it was just perfect, and I would come back anytime, cherishing every moment. The hosts are nice, and there was even a welcome mango juice. They also cook for you, and nearby, there are a few selected beach restaurants that are really tasty.
