Wonderful, very clean accommodation with the most beautiful pool we’ve experienced so far. Very friendly and family-like service, and an incredible variety of exotic wildlife, especially birds. Secluded dream beaches within walking distance (though unfortunately very rough at this time of year). Lots of restaurants just a few minutes’ walk away. A true piece of authentic Sri Lanka. Thanks also for the nice birthday surprise for my daughter! Unforgettable stay!

A really great place to stay. I stayed two nights longer because I liked it so much. The lady who organises this is super nice and helpful. Everything is clean and the location on the lagoon is great. The food tastes really good and is very varied. It's only a 5-minute walk to the beach and you can see great animals here at the lagoon. I would come here again anytime.

Tranquility. Cleanliness. Friendliness of the host. Outdoor swimming pool was great fun for our children. Lake is abundant with birds and parrots and it's a pleasure to watch them.

We had the pleasure of being the very first guests at White Resort Tangalle, and it was an unforgettable experience. The property is brand new and even more stunning than in the photos – modern, elegant, and designed with great attention to detail. The furnishings are minimal yet refined, creating a calm and stylish atmosphere where you immediately feel at ease. Everything was spotlessly clean, and the care put into every corner of the resort really shows. What made our stay even more special was the staff: incredibly friendly, attentive, and always available to help with a smile. They made us feel not just welcomed, but truly at home. White Resort Tangalle is a little gem, and we feel lucky to have discovered it from the very beginning. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a beautiful, peaceful, and warm place to stay in Tangalle.

I had a wonderful one-night stay at this hotel. The location is absolutely beautiful – so calm, relaxing, and perfect for a peaceful getaway 🥰. The rooms were fresh, clean, and very comfortable, making it easy to relax. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, which made the experience even better. Breakfast was amazing, fresh, and full of variety. In the evening, we enjoyed a delightful BBQ with a bonfire 🔥😊, which created such a warm and cozy atmosphere . Overall, it was definitely worth the price, and truly memorable. I would love to come back and highly recommend this place to anyone looking for relaxation and great hospitality.

Upul and his family were so warmhearted and welcoming towards us, always at hand to provide some assistance to plan our onward trip and advice about the region. You can’t ask for more hospitality really! The breakfast was extensive and it varied each day. It was a very spacious room with a big kingsize bed. There is a private bathroom (hot water) and also a private kitchen equipped with big fridge freezer and all cooking utensils you might need. Many different lights, AC and ceiling fans to make you feel comfortable.

    Great location. Not too far from the city centre and only like 2 mins walk to the beach. The rooms are spacious and clean. The A/C works very well and good shower pressure as well. The host was very helpful. Gave me informations about the bus and waited with me till the bus arrived.

    A lovely, helpful family host this new homestay. Great location only 2 mins walk to the wonderful Mawella beach. Our room was large and well equipped with air-conditioning, fan and mosquito net. There is a small private patio area outside the room and a larger shared terrace with a comfy sofa. Wonderful breakfasts made freshly each morning. Very quiet and peaceful at night. Highly recommended. Thank you so much for making us feel at home.
