We loved the property. it was a perfect place to relax with a beautiful empty beach. Stunning views. Helpful staff. Stayed 4 nights. No other bars/restaurants nearby so you must expect to spend most of your time at the property. We did the guided birdwatching trip on the lake which was excellent. Unfortunately, while we were there, the sea was too rough for swimming and so we made good use of the pool. Food was good, especially the Sri Lankan dishes. Would have been nice to have a bar area where you could go for a drink before dinner but this is only a minor criticism.

Really nice hotel with really nice people in a really nice location. No complaints, very happy with the service. Everyone was very kind and eager to make our stay enjoyable. What makes or breaks this hotel is location: if you are happy to stay at the hotel and relax in a quiet peaceful setting, then this hotel is for you. If you’re hoping to do some exploring, this place is a bit out of the way.

2 night stay but wish it was more
We stayed here for 2 nights. The area is very remote leading on to a private beach which is great to relax. The rooms are big and finished to a high standard, although it might have been good to have a telephone to call down for any needs. There are only 7 rooms so it has a peaceful feel and the staff are then very attentive. Everything we needed was taken care of and the food here is great!

A tranquil and comfortable stay
Thoroughly enjoyable. A very calm, tranquil option which proved clean and very comfortable. The staff were very friendly, welcoming and helpful. One night was enough for us, though, as there are limited things to do in the area.

Amazing, amazing hotel, staff and unbeatable views
Hotel: A beautiful bungalow style hotel with maybe 6 room, each of them with a million dollar view of a pristine, private beach and the blue ocean! Staff: Each of the staff members seem to genuinely care about you and your time spent at Turtle Bay. They take extra care to ensure that you have your meals on time, that your rooms are cleaned multiple times a day. Can't say enough about them. Amazing, kind-hearted people! Rooms: Rooms are HUGE! And comfortable and well-appointed. But the VIEW is the kicker! Unbeatable and going to sleep with the sound of the waves is really priceless. All of this at an unbeatable price. Part of me didn't want to write this review so that this hidden gem stays that way :) But the folks there deserve more guests and more revenue. Go to Turtle Bay and you will not regret it!
