Brinkhouse was our most expensive hotel in Sri Lanka, but we really enjoyed our time there. The owner was a really sweet older man who brought breakfast every morning (it was included) and told us about the area. The guesthouse is a five minute walk from the beach, but staying any closer would have been even more expensive. The internet... More

Stayed for 3 weeks in brinkhouse in February. The owner is lovely, extremely helpful and genuinely interested in making sure you have a good time. Monitor lizards, iguanas and langurs nearly every day in the garden, a peaceful corner of unawatuna filled with wildlife. Delicious and filling breakfast, advice on local sights and bus/train times etc. Only small complaint is... More

Wijay was a very good host and helped us out a great deal when we stayed here. I left my bag containing my computer on a local Tuk Tuk, a very disconcerting situation. Wijay phoned round the local Tuk Tuk drivers to look for it and advised us what to do... two hours later it turned up due to his... More

Welcoming owner, crystal clean room and best breakfast we had in SriLanka. Don´t be confused by first view of hotel, it is really good. To beach you have to cross the street, but it is not far, or too busy.

Just wanted to say thank you for such a lovely stay at Brinkhouse! The owners were lovely and we especially loved the breakfast on our balcony while watching the monkeys! We will definitely come back and recommend Brinkhouse to all of our friends traveling to Sri Lanka :) Warm regards, Heather

Stayed here for two-nights in late-September 2012. Rooms are clean and well-kept, breakfast was lovely (with the added perk of it being brought up to you every morning!) and the guesthouse was a good distance away from the road - away from the buzz of tuc-tucs whizzing up-and-down the main road during the night. The crowning feature of this guesthouse... More

Stayedhere for the second time in a month on my return visit to unawatuna. Was given the best room in the whole place and it really was great.! Breakfast is so tasty and such a pleasure to watch the monkeys in the trees whilst eating on the balcony. Very helpful and friendly owners.

We had originally booked and planned to stay for 3 days, but only stayed for one. We were immediately disappointed upon arriving. In fact, our driver suggested that we go elsewhere, but since we had already booked we opted to give it a try. After we did a bit of research, we learned that we could get an ocean front... More
