We stayed at the hotel for 2 weeks. Very nice large rooms, large balcony. The second floor has a high ceiling. Very tasty breakfasts. For dinner we had the best rockfish I had ever eaten. Everything in the hotel was of high quality - mattress, linen, towels. Excellent hot water pressure. The hotel was in a quiet location. One beach was a 5 minute walk, the other was in 10 minutes. The beaches are picturesque, huge, empty. One morning we walked several kilometers and met 3 persons. We saw many traces of large sea turtles. They crawl out of the sea at night and lay eggs at Rekawa beach. Swimming here is difficult because of the waves, but it is possible in small bays behind the rocks. Every day we met peacocks, monitor lizards, and monkeys. We were very grateful to Gintare and Chamy for their hospitality. Thanks to them, my birthday with cake and balloons was wonderful. They were always ready to help with any question. We hope to come here next year. I highly recommend this hotel to everyone who loves silence and nature!

The host will make it all worth it! The room is very spacious and comfortable. Indihka thought in every detail when he build the place. If you’re looking for an authentic home stay with an incredible host while in Tangalle, this is the place. The food (dinner and breakfast) was amazing, we did a nice walk through the swamp in front of the house and was an unique experience

The location is very peaceful and at a walkable distance to Tangalle (around 45 mins) and very close to the big wild beach. The room and bathroom were perfectly clean and equipped with all we needed. There is also a spacious patio with a hammock. Our host, Sureka, was very nice and always available. We had the best dhal curry and string hoppers there! Overall the perfect place to stay near Tangalle if you want to chill.

Beautiful, serene and quiet space by the lagoon right off the beach. Ranjit was a sweet, genuine host and his wife made delicious traditional breakfast. All standards were surpassed. I look forward to returning for a longer duration as the price was a steal for it's quality. He even dropped us off to the bus stop in his tuk-tuk at the end of our stay.

Everything, lovely clean rustic living surrounded by nature and happy smiling faces. The food is excellent, from breakfast to dinner. And it is only 10 mins walk to a beautiful remote long beach with the added bonus your host Saman will guide you on a Turtle night tour, that will leave you with a life long memory. Saman has 16 years experience with turtles, and from his heart and conservation mind and red light you can spend the evening on the beach. The other brother provides a Tuk tuk service. We had a fantastic time at Peacock family stay.

This is our first trip to Sri Lanka, and the first few days in Colombo were so tiring for us. But finally, we arrived at The Waves Beach Chalets, and it was our paradise, we could see birds and monkeys from our terrace. It was amazing. The host and his boys were super helpful, kind, and honest. He cares and helps us with everything. I felt so warm and touched. The service is beyond our expectations. The place is so clean and feel like we have our own beach which we can walk and see turtle next door. There are a few restaurants where we can walk from the property to have lunch or dinner. For breakfast will be served at a nice place where we can see the beach, it was super nice. Or if you would like to go somewhere else, the host also can help to arrange tuk-tuk with a reasonable price. We highly recommend this place in case you would like to come to Tangalle. The place is perfect.

The location is super peaceful and quiet, lots of animals right by the lagoon. 7 mins away from the beach. The staff is incredibly friendly and helpful. I got stung by a jelly fish and got offered Aloe Vera right away which really helped me a lot. The breakfast and food in general is homemade and super super tasty. The coffee was also pretty good. I definitely recommend staying here if you're looking for a super quiet and peaceful timeout to just relax and enjoy being surrounded by all kinds of peaceful animals.
