"The ocean view was very nice. Our room was one of the best and very large, it accommodated 4 people. Everything was very nice we arrived in the low season yet we enjoyed our time. The staff were splendid. We ate all our meals at the hotel restaurant because it tasted so good and the staff were so helpful and friendly."

"The Moose is such a special place! The host Ashan is a wonderful man. I felt so welcomed and safe and taken care of my whole stay. Room was big, immaculately clean, hot shower. Owner was also always on hand for questions and helped out with taxis etc. Would recommend this hotel to everyone. Was sad to leave. "

"Everything was perfect, genuinely nothing to fault with this resort. Staff were so nice and friendly, the facilities were 10/10 and the food was amazing at their restaurant.
The pool setup was very relaxing, overlooking a nice mangrove river with lots of wildlife. The rooms were also massive, clean and modern and I had a great 3 night stay here, I wouldn’t hesitate to book a stay here again when visiting Sri Lanka."

The resort is an absolutely beautiful tranquil environment with thoughtful touches throughout. Yoga is complimentary at sunrise and sunset as well as Ayurvedic tea and occasional pre-dinner activities. The staff are a delight, caring, helpful and courteous. The restaurant overlooks the gorgeous pool area and grounds and every meal I had was delicious served by attentive staff. The Executive Chef Saman made an effort to introduce himself and ensured I was happy with the food, often chatting...

Brilliant views, amazing sound of waves at all hours. The restaurant and lounge areas are absolute waterfront and truly a place to relax.
Rooms are pretty standard but have all you need. Staff were excellent and very hospitable, friendly and attentive.
Coffee here was easily the best i've had so far on this trip, exceptionally good!
Recommend this place, would stay again!

Our stay in the garden villa was really great. It was clean and spacious with a semi outdoor bathroom. The pool area was straight in front of the ocean so you could watch the waves from your sunbed. Surf board hire was cheap with a large range of boards. Drinks were cheap and food yummy.

We had a lovely stay at Bayfront, walking distance to beach and a short trip to Mirissa Beach. The staff were very friendly and the room was very clean with nice fluffy towels.

The resort and staff were fantastic. Needed to use a tuk tuk to get to nearby attractions, but small price to pay for the fantastic treatment we received at Mandara.
