Villa Baywatch, Rumassala

Guests who stayed here loved

“- The man and the woman managing the place were friendly. - Beautiful garden and pavilion. - The surroundings and view was great. Very quiet area with lots of jungle and a great view. - Almost as close to Jungle Beach as you could get with accommodation. - The rooms and amenities were quite worn and several items were out of order or had been removed: TV-mount with no TV, soap dispenser with no soap, power outlets with no power. - The pool and outside areas (except the garden) were worn and required maintenance. E.g. the pool had lots of stains from wear and tear, which made it unappealing. - It was quite hard to get breakfast at a time earlier than 10am in the area, which made it not that friendly for kids. Also only very local options. The hotel provided breakfast if we requested in advance, but it was $10 USD pp for a pretty basic continental breakfast. Same price in Unawatuna would get you a more luxurious meal. - (Nothing the hotel could do, but): Jungle Beach is way more crowded than the pictures show and everywhere is full of Russians. It ruined our expectations a bit, because we had booked this *because* of its proximity to Jungle Beach. A lot of the existing photos on Booking.com were +8 years old, which we didn't realise when we booked. If some of the above things were addressed, I would also be happy with paying a bit more. I understand now why this place was cheaper than others.”
