We had an amazing 2 night stay at All View Resort. Our host, Priyanthi, was very kind and welcomed us with two huge king coconuts. There is a restaurant on site so we couldn’t resist ordering some rice and curry. She made the best Dahl we’ve had so far in Sri Lanka! Our room was large and spotlessly clean, with A/C, towels, a mosquito net and plenty of storage. We slept so well here as it is very peaceful. The property itself is very well kept, with a beautiful garden. This is a great place for nature lovers, as we spotted peacocks, buffalo, frogs, many kinds of birds, and turtles (as I’ll go on to explain)! Priyanthi can also help to arrange bicycles and canoeing on the lagoon. The property is located a 15 minute drive outside Tangalle and this ended up being hugely advantageous. The beach (only a 10 minute walk from the property) was much quieter and very beautiful. They day we arrived, our host informed us we could see baby turtles hatching and then return later in the evening to see an adult turtle lay her eggs. This is led by a conservation project called Rekawa Turtle Watch, to which you are asked to contribute a small donation. This was definitely the highlight from our time in Sri Lanka. Cannot recommend this accommodation enough!
