Non mi è piaciuto: Servizi
Read if you are considering staying a Unawatuna. I stayed 2 hours of a 3 night booking before I checked out.
The hotel itself was ok. Though it looks different to the online photos as the rooms don't have the mosquito netting. The bare decor and stone based bed gave the room a cold uninviting feeling.
I took a walk in Unawatuna and felt uncomfortable because it was predominantly white. The only people of color were the restaurant and shop vendors. Clearly very unusual in Sri Lanka. All the menus were in English and Russian.
I checked out and moved to Koggala, which is lovely.
On doing some much deeper research into Unawatuna, I see my instincts were justified. I would advise people do some news and social media research to check if it's a place for you.
