We got off the bus and walked to the beach to find Peacock as first choice, we sat down at the terrace and while having a beer we discuss wheter to stay and asked another couple how the hotel was. We got a "deal" of 11.500SLR (£65) for 4 days but only one breakfast as we preferred to have something... More

We have paid 2 nights, but we left there only for one. it was horrible because nearby ( about 100 m) is disco with techno, which we have heared hole night. After that night was nobody speaking with us, they told us that it isnt their problem More

I'd say that many of the negative comments on this hotel are probably appropriate - but as with many things in life, you get what you pay for. The prices are not as cheap as some guest houses in Unawatuna - but then it is literally at the edge of the surf. Our stay was in May last year and... More

Peakok is right on the Beach, with about 10 rooms rooms dived over two floors (and the restaurant down below) and have shared balconies with amazing views. The Indian Ozean is only 5m from the house. Most rooms are quite simple, ours was very big but did not have hot water nor A/C. For those of us that like to... More

located directly at the beach and quite close to the steet with the busstations the location is actually perfect / the crew of the Peacock is very friendly, ignore their boss! for the evening: if you're going back to the street and then a few metres to the right you find a very authentic place for good rotty (be careful...

Well, what do you expect for 3750 rupees a night? You get an excellent, magnificent view over Unawatuna Beach. We had AC and a fridge, and even hot water. Still, you have to accept that - yes - the credit card machine was still broken. They did not clean the room if you didn't ask for it - towels, linens... More

The place is beautiful and the staff are friendly. The owner on the other hand was quite ill-behaved. The staff and the owner definitely dont want you to pay by credit card. The first day we had lunch with them, they said the power was not there and hence they could not process my card. At dinner, after taking my... More

Hmmmm, we stayed there in July 2010, was telling friends about it and saw these reviews, very surprised! Location is fantastic, Unawatuna is a must in Sri Lanka.. Room was basic, but had a great view, hot flowing water, as expected, paid about £18/night, ate there once, but had a great night with the owner, came back and he was... More

Arrived on a sunny afternoon, greeted by a shirtless money hungry, receipt book in hand, rude manager. Was shown to a room hidden around a corner with no light, no bedding, no power, moudly, smelly, bug infested room. Wanted to shower but had no hot water. Shower, read, dribble of freezing water. By the time we wanted to retire to... More
