From ourGuests

Our Resort is brand new modern facility offering ultimate diving experience and relax atmosphere in our beach restaurant. We open in March 2022 and until then we don’t want to use fake reviews. But you are welcome to refer reviews from our other accommodation:

We stayed here last November and absolutely loved it. Two of us were in the main building and the other two were in a cabana. The hotel is owned by a lovely German lady who keeps it to a very high standard and all her staff are extremely friendly and helpful. The rooms in the main building were really clean and spacious, with a terrace and air con. The cabana we had was breathtaking, right on the edge of the beach under palm trees. Breakfast and dinner were delicious and good value, with a very good choice.

Nice, clean and comfortable.. After three nights on the east coast we stayed 6 nights at Rockside. One of the best places to be on this part of Unawatuna area. We had a bungalow near the beach with just a fan and Mosquito Net and that was really nice. The garden is fantastic and the food is good. The owner has also a PADI diving center which makes the stay even more complete. Good place for people in love. The nearby beach give you daily opportunity to swim with turtles

We had a great relaxing time in this hostel. The beach is just few meters away and many restaurants are located at a walk-able distance, price is really okay for Sri Lanka . Also Edward had been a wonderful host, very helpful and he welcomed us with his big smile, thank you so much and hope to see you soon again.
