    Activities: The staff at Secret Garden Villa can also arrange for windsurfing, diving, and snorkeling activities to be enjoyed at the nearby beach. I had a thrilling scuba diving adventure, exploring the underwater world with colorful marine life. It was like being in my own personal aquarium!

    Maintenance: Some minor issues in the rooms.

    Secret Garden Villa - Unawatuna was chosen by my director for our recent business trip, and I must say it was an excellent choice. One of the highlights was the availability of relaxing massages upon request. After a tiring day of meetings, I was able to unwind and rejuvenate with a soothing massage. The spa services provided added a touch of luxury to my stay, ensuring a truly relaxing experience. the guesthouse is smoke-free, which created a clean and fresh environment throughout my stay.

    Rooms in the main building were a bit too dark with no window.

    Staff arranged thrilling water activities, and safety features were on point. Free WiFi and the lovely garden were a plus. The roundtrip airport shuttle helped a lazy traveler like me.

    I just loved having to prepare my own meals in a shared/communal kitchen. Such a delight!

    the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, always making us feel welcome. the breakfast provided was great, and we especially appreciated the kind gesture of the Swiss owner giving us chocolates and homemade biscuits for Christmas.

    It was incredibly dark and lacked natural light and fresh air.

    The rooms at Secret Garden Villa are tastefully furnished and clean. I felt really comfortable and at home in my room. I loved that the Sri Lankan-style guestrooms are fully air-conditioned. It was such a relief to come back to a cool room after a day of exploring. The twin room had everything I needed, including a private entrance and a nice tile/marble floor. It felt cozy and welcoming. The bungalow was great with its own private entrance and a convenient tea/coffee maker. I enjoyed the warm and inviting atmosphere. The suite had a private entrance and a lovely tile/marble floor. I instantly fell in love with the stylish and comfortable design.

    Personally, I found the shared kitchen area slightly small. However, others might still find it sufficient.
