Stayed here May 2013 in the off season. It gets very windy here at this time and the beach not much good as seas choppy. Stay here in the high season and you are in heaven. Villas super cute and private, security on site at all times, a good and professional spa, food is good, but not amazing and staff... More

We visited Saman Villas for 9 nights in March, after a week of touring. The situation of the hotel is beautiful. Lovely pool and beautifully kept gardens. We loved the food - we found breakfast so satisfying (especially the wonderful Sri Lankan breakfasts!) that we did not need lunch. The dinners were great; a very good mix of Sri Lankan... More

The view was spectacular and the food excellent! It sort of overlooks the beach and is very quiet and tranquil. We really enjoyed our stay there. Staff is very friendly too and quite helpful. It was secluded and romantic. Most rooms have private plunge pools. Excellent place for a relaxing holiday.

we loved our stay, the food was better than expected, spa was a great addition too. go for a room with private pool, you wont regret it! perfect for 3-5 days stay, small trips to discover the river with a boat or a half day trip to Galle is a great idea too.

Official Description (provided by the hotel):
Saman Villas is laid out on a magnificent rocky headland dividing two long, surf-swept golden beaches. Close by is a sleepy fishing village but you would not know it, the only sounds are sea gulls' cries and the surf below. The resort is inspired by ancient Sri Lankan architecture. The restaurants, bars and villa suites are all angled to take full advantage of the sea shore vista either side of the headland. A terraced garden draws the eye to a dramatic infinity-edge pool. ... more   less
