Never again... Rock Side is a beautiful little wonder consisting of 3 rather basic, but nice cabanas and a couple of rooms in the main building squeezed in between the busy, noisy main road, the railroad and the sea. Cabana no. 2 is especially attractive, because you from the wooden deck are able to watch the turtles swimming to and... More

An absolutely beautiful week in the sun. I am surprised at some of the reviews of Rockside Cabanas - I found it a perfect location on a stunning island. It is so lovely to open the the garden gate and step directly onto the beach. A favourite daily experience was to sit at the garden egde and watch the turtles... More

Nice idea the one of building a couple of cabanas on the beach. We decided to book them because it should be much nicer than just one hotel room. The cabanas have also a nice terrace with balcony where you can chill with great views to the ocean. Unfortunately, the rocky and uncared beach doesnt make you feel like swimming.... More

We happened upon Rockside quite unexpectedly and we were pleasantly surprised with the Cabana and the location. We stayed in a Cabana right in front of the beach with an beautiful stunning view of the beach and the ocean. Great swimming spot right in front and very private and peaceful. Quite unfortunately we had an incident of theft from the... More

We really loved our stay: lovely cabana, good beach & water, great food. We also want to compliment the Sri Lankans who run the place day to day: not only was food (esp the curry's) and service great, but there was also attention to details, which makes all the difference. For example: the driver put a towel in the booth... More

I am glad I had already booked at Rockside Cabanas before reading the most recent review. Had I not, I would've booked somewhere else, and that would have been a mistake. There were no complaints with the service. We found the staff to be friendly, attentive and hardworking. The morning we went off on a day trip, they opened the... More

The cabanas have a great design and are very well built. The beach is nice. They tried to charge for an extra days breakfasts and drinks by counting one day twice (obscuring it by having several loose sheets of accounts) for about £9. The website says breakfast for 1.5 euros. This is toast and jam, if you go for the... More

My husband and I stayed at Rockside Guesthouse and Cabanas for 3 nights in March as part of our honeymoon tour of Sri Lanka. We had climbed Adam’s peak in the early hours of the morning, and then endured a 7 hour journey to get to the south coast so were very happy to finally get to our destination! Rockside... More

We had a great time at the Rock Side Cabanas. The rooms are quite basic but very clean and spacious. And you are RIGHT at the beach!! It is quite noisy at night so as the ocean is right in front of you doorstep. Staff is very nice, food not so great but there are plenty of restaurants around. Very... More
