Ananya Beach Resort

Excellent stay with amazing staff and great food. Superb location right on quiet beach. Wish we had stayed longer but will be back someday hopefully. Rooms were very comfortable and I would recommend to friends. Pool right on beach front was great

This hotel was great to just unwind and totally relax. Our room on the 1st floor was great with an unspoiled view. We had a beach facing one that was a good size for the 3 of us. It was very clean and the staff team did a thorough clean of the poolside every morning. The beds were very comfortable, as was the sofa and the outside chairs. Staff were great and would definitely return. Food choices were good with daily fresh fish. My daughter and I went for a spa and would highly recommend the calming massage and reflexology which was great value. Very isolated with no other places to eat so if staying longer that might be an issue

A very well run hotel. The hotel is immaculately clean and provides a very relaxed atmosphere with spacious bedrooms and comfortable beds. Excellent breakfasts, lovely pool, great beachfront location, terrific freshly caught fish (on request fish options available too), but above all the lovely staff and particularly the manager (Nalin), who went out of his way to make our stay very special and personal. Would highly recommend the hotel.

Stayed here for 3 nights, wanted a very quiet beach front stay away from the crowds and this was perfect. Long virtually deserted and unspoilt beach, just a few isolated hotels and local fishermen for miles. Hotel is very comfortable, team are all top rate, recommend the Sri Lankan breakfast and the wildlife tour of the freshwater lagoon immediately behind the hotel.

Off the beaten track but worth the effort right on the beach. You can walk along the beach for miles and not meet anybody but a lot of surf and not suitable for bathing at this time of year. On the top floor great view very relaxing great pool. Ideally you need your own transport . Have no hesitation in recommending this venue and would return anytime.

We have stayed in many places all round Sri Lanka, north, south, east, west , middle etc . Having walked past this beautiful place previously on another trip, we decided to return for a more relaxing stay ( compared to what we had taken on previously in Sri Lanka) There is nothing at all to complain about, it’s clean, the room views are fantastic, the price is great ( remember you get what you pay for). The staff are all fantastic. Yes it’s off the beaten track, if you want to party go elsewhere. Of course the waves can be heard ( I’ve seen this complained about) And of course there is no lifts, it’s a tiny place. We initially booked 7 nights and with the hotel being perfect for our stay we extended to 14 nights Scooters available to hire, they will get one delivered for you, airport transfer no problem ( additional cost naturally). Food is fantastic. As with the whole of the southern part of Sri Lanka insect repellent is needed at times. Why go anywhere else
