It is a beach front property where you get the beach, though public, at your disposal because it is at a secluded area. Best for people looking for solitude and pristine peace of mind. The staff is great and very helpful always available. The property having 4-5 rooms only thus not crowded at all. Food wise one gets what are basics but workable. I would love to go again.
The location address at the booking.com is erroneous therefore confuses you unless you contact the property directly. In Google map search one should write only Reef Bungalow Bopitiya. There is one more property of same name 5 KM away. I was late in arriving at the property and faced a major hassle as around 9 PM the road was deserted.

If you’re looking for a beach house vibe then this is 100% what to book. It isn’t like other hotels, it feels like a home and everything is cooked to order, home cooking. The staff was amazing and friendly. The owner took us to the airport when no taxi could. They go above and beyond for their customers. It’s on the beach front (you can’t swim in the ocean however the beach and waves was nice). The pool is lovely, shallow and deep end. It’s located about 40 mins away from Colombo and Ubers are easy to find. About 20 mins away from the airport however you couldn’t hear the noise from the planes or anything. I really enjoyed our stay here
The rooms was a little on the dirty side however the overall hotel made up for it

Prime Location: One of the standout features of this hotel is its unbeatable location. It's just a stone's throw away from the sea, making it incredibly convenient for beach lovers. We appreciated that we could easily access the beach within walking distance from the hotel gate. Spacious Rooms: The room we stayed in was spacious and provided ample room for our family to move around comfortably. It's always a plus when you have enough space to relax after a day of activities. Peaceful Ambiance: During our stay, there were very few other guests, which allowed us to enjoy the pool without any disturbances. It felt like having a private pool, and that's a rare luxury.
Limited Dining Options: Unfortunately, our dining experience left much to be desired. Although there was a menu card in the room, the actual food options were extremely limited. Furthermore, the quality of the food was subpar. It would have been great to have more diverse and flavorful dining choices. Lack of In-Room Amenities: Another minor drawback was the absence of a tea/coffee making facility in the room. Such basic amenities can enhance the overall comfort of the stay.

We booked the whole hotel, all 4 rooms. So we had a lot of privacy and the swimming pool to ourselves. The pool is large and incredibly clean. The owner Damith (Dani) is very friendly and Pobudu cooks very tasty and delicious food. We ate breakfasts and late lunches in the accommodation. The location suited us, as we have visited Sri Lanka 3 times in the past... The sea/ocean is not suitable for swimming but that's okay, there is a large swimming pool.
The whole house needs renovation. The owner has plans for renovations and showed them to me. I personally don't like it because it will turn a piece of private paradise into a 12-room hotel (or more rooms). Of course Damith I wish you all the best and we send our regards to all three boys.

The staff was very nice, and once we arrived they helped us instantly to take our bags. When we noticed that our wifi didn't work, they instantly plugged in the router next to our room! When we needed to prolong our stay for a day, there was no problem with that whatsoever. The room was nice, but not as modern as we expected for the price, but it was ok. The same with the cleanliness.
The location is rather far from everything, and there is no restaurants anywhere near. Also, you cannot swim in the ocean, only in the pool, but that one is great!

Peaceful, comfortable and very spacious property right next to the beach, 20mins from the airport with good host. Airport pickup/drop off and excursions available.
A little worn, but owner working on refreshing and growing the property. A little too far to walk to any shops or restaurants, although transport is available

located right on the beach, has an extremely clean swimming pool! My room was spacious and the hosts could not have more accommodating, will make whatever kind of food you prefer whether western or Sri Lankan. If you stay there is a local boat tour of the lagoon that is very interesting!
