“Amazing Experience in Unawatuna”
I had a really good stay at Six Sense Hostel in Unawatuna. The location is great and the place has a nice interior, very comfortable and relaxing. The best part of my stay was the receptionist, Randika. He is a very kind and helpful person. From the moment I arrived, he welcomed me nicely and made me feel comfortable. In the morning, he even brought hoppers for breakfast and served me, which I really appreciated. He also knows all the good places around and helped me with directions and recommendations. Overall, I’m very happy with my stay. Good place, good service, and very friendly people. I highly recommend it.

The property was great! The guy who runs it is so kind and helpful. Very clean, chill hostel. Not very social and about a 30 minute walk to the beach. Some great local restaurants like the cutting leaf and Vishal’s curry house.

“It’s was good”
The property was very clean and comfortable. The manager was very helpful. Late check/-in was allowed for me. The accommodation is overall very peaceful. The best thing about this accommodation, once you are at the main road, you just cross the road to the unawatuna beach and there is a bus which takes you directly to Mirissa beach and Galle fort. However, I only had one problem, that’s the location, there are no street lights and it’s quiet about 8 mins from the main road, so Uber keeps cancelling one after another at night specially(every during morning). So, you will always have to take the local TUK TUK, who will eventually charge higher. The best way to deal with this is to rent a bike, the manager is very helpful with it.
