“In Unawatuna, this resort stands out for its prime beachfront location, granting immediate access to one of Sri Lanka's finest beaches. I'm particularly drawn to the rooftop infinity pool, promising both relaxation and panoramic ocean views. For those seeking adventure beyond the beach, the daily tours to Yala National Park are a significant perk.”
