Sri Gemunu is a stunning hotel in a great location. We stayed there for 15 nights and didn't want to leave. The service was excellent with delicious food. Our hotel room was very clean and comfortable. The best part about the hotel is the views. Each evening you can enjoy your meal right by the sea, the beach is paradise.... More

We stayed at sri gemunu during the christmas holidays (2 weeks), with our baby (11 months). We choose the hotel based on the reviews on tripadvisor, and we were not disappointed, to the contrary. Staff was very friendly and they would do a lot to make you feel comfortable. Food was very nice and, based on glimpses of the kitchen... More

My husband and I stayed here for 3 nights with some friends and had a wonderful stay. The hotel has a real charm mostly down to the fantastic staff. Rooms were basic but very clean. Food was delicious - we had rice and curry for dinner all 3 nights as we were half board and each night they brought us... More

We stayed at the Sri Gemunu for 8 days in April 2012 and found the hotel comfortable and friendly. The hotel is right on the beach where there is safe swimming and great sunsets. We were there during the tsunami warning and the staff were fabulous. Our triple room was spacious and comfortable (a/c, fan, fridge, nets, wifi, good shower)... More

My partner and I stayed in Sri Gemenu in February 2012. We had an awesome time. The staff were very friendly from the outset and we always felt like part of the family. Not sure what happened on DJDB's trip review (Not as good as it thinks it is)...!!! but i would go the opposite and say that they are... More

Spent 10 days here before the cricket. Got the airport pick up which worked fine, and didn't arrive at the hotel till 2am. In the morning the first woman on the desk I spoke to put me off from the start. I asked whether there was a shop nearby to buy a few things, she replied, "I'm not telling you... More

We booked in for two nights inbetween the test matches for a couple of days relaxation on the beach. The location is great and you have access to a natural pool for swimming. The hotel grounds also provide plenty of shade if required. The hotel itself doesn't really add much to the surroundings however and as they insist on you... More

This over 30 year family-run hotel was the best place we stayed in Sri Lanka. The staff is very friendly and helpfull, but not importunatly. Very good service, clean rooms and a tranquil atmosphere. The garden is beautyful with big old tree in the middle. You can sit directly on the beach. The beach is nice, sometimes rocky. We payed... More

We stayed three days here. A beautiful setting. The sound of the pounding surf drowns out the road noise on the land side. The views from the porch and eating areas are stunning. The lagoon, a 50 meter walk, provides an excellent swimming area. Very good food, very well run facility. More
