The room and bathroom were spacious, well designed and impeccably clean -- we really appreciated the attention to details and the additional functionality offered by the daybed, the small desk, the armchairs as we were travelling with our tween and also had to do some work while on vacation. The pool was lovely - it is a good size and none of us had red eyes from chlorination. The beach the property opens onto is gloriously clean and we had it entirely to ourselves most of the time. The cafe served up delicious food but their menu offers only a few Sri Lankan dishes. At our request, the kitchen was only too happy to whip up Sri Lankan meals -- prawn and fish curries, traditional coconut sambol, dhals, gotukala salad, okra salad, ridge gourd in coconut milk, star bean stir fry, eggplant gojju, Sri Lankan pancakes with ice cream, watalapam .... these were by far the best meals we enjoyed during the entirety of our holiday and we would heartily recommend visitors to Lankavatara sample the Sri Lankan meals. The staff are very well informed and helpful and did everything they could to make our stay a memorable one -- from organising tuktuks, catamaran rides in the Kalametiya Bird Sanctuary and turtle watching or airport transfers.

The staff and host in this property could not have been any kinder. We were able to get our laundry done for a very fair price and the host even made us a packed breakfast as we had to leave very early morning on our departure. The location was very close to the beach and a short ride to the secret beach.

Everything. To start with, the property itself. Absolutely beautiful settings, pool and room. It looks and feel very luxurious and secret, perfect place to relax after a lot of travelling through Sri Lanka. Squirrels running about and lots of colorful birds. The staff truly go above and beyond to make you feel comfortable and to help you with your plans. I came to Lagoon Gate to relax, but being my hyperactive self, I was longing for things to do. When asking for a bicycle I was lent one right away and when I asked to visit Mulkirigala cave temple, not only was I provided with a tuktuk and driver in the next hour but a member of staff (Shan) even came with me and I gave me lots of explanations about the temple. I was then taken on a free kayak tour on the lagoon where I could see lots of wildlife. Oh, I had some absolutely delicious seafood at their restaurant. AND one of the best massage I've had in Sri Lanka un their little massage parlor in the gardens. Kind of an endless review, and I was only there for two days ! Just go there with your eyes closed, a must stay in Sri Lanka.

Beautiful location, right on the beach front. Clean and a large cabana with a verandah. Friendly staff who all stayed up late to greet us and cook dinner. Fantastic breakfast on the deck overlooking the beach and the local fishing activities.

Sri Lanka has amazing hotels and homestays but THIS is a once in a lifetime experience! And Im not only talking about the room itself which is made with so much love! But lets start with the Hobbit House....you can find only 2 of them in a lush tropical garden separated in a way that you wont even notice the other one.The house is handmade but with so much details it is truly incredible.Amazing bed, huge bathroom and just this uncomparable feeling! However there is something else that completely caught our heart and soul. The host Hirushan. Such a heartwarming and caring person who comes with the bonus that his mum cooks the most incredible food! The beach is just minutes away and it is stunning! Complete calm and serenity and turtles laying their eggs at night! Igabara is a MUST GO whenever you are in Tangalle!!!
