I'm not sure I can explain how special this property is. When driving toward it on the beach road you might think you made a wrong turn past the wildlife sanctuary. It is situated on a remote stretch of beach where you can walk for miles without seeing others. On the back side of the property, a tranquil lagoon teaming with unmatched bird life that can entertain you for hours. The moment you arrive time seems to no longer matter. Your bungalow has two balconies so you can enjoy sunrise and sunset and always have a spot in the shade. The swimming pool is perfection and the air is fresh. This is truly a retreat from any chaos you might experience in life. It is not fancy. The beds are as comfortable as any five star resort, and wonderful authentic Sri Lankan food served with love are highlights. But, I must say, the most treasured time at Twin Waters was time spent with Eddie. He went out of his way on all levels to make us feel like we were the most welcomed people in his home.
There is nothing we didn't like. We did not want to leave and would go back in a heartbeat. If you are looking for a unique beach stay, away from the southern crowds and umbrella drinks, this is so lovely. It is important to know that there are no attractions or restaurants close by. We spent our time enjoying birdlife, watching the fishermen bring in their catch-of-the-day, swimming, reading, writing, etc.

Hard to know where to start, the property is run by an interesting multi-lingual family who genuinely do everything to make sure you have a great stay. The property is amazing, the lagoon to the front would be enough to make it amazing but turn 180 degrees and the sea and gorgeous beach is just there. It is not hard to get to, £25 taxi from the airport and when you are there why not hire a Tuk Tuk for your stay as I did, organised by the Resort, and Im 72 years old. We drove miles in it. The food is excellent, our only complaint that they kept trying to give us too much, they are so kind. We had breakfast and dinner there every day. The chalets are spotless, large and comfortable. Nearby, the fishermen bring the nets in and welcome any help you can give them to help unload the fish from the nets into the pickups, great fun. The pool is excellent, it is large and overlooks the lagoon. Then there are the birds, absolutely amazing, the resort is next to a bird sanctuary, we saw so many different coloured birds, bring a bird identifier book. The local people are so friendly and smiley, we met and talked with them every day when we went for a walk. We had such a great time here, all in all a great experience.
absolutely nothing could improve our stay. To be fair, I would say if your looking for bars, different restaurants and a lively time this resort is not for you. If your looking for an interesting, beautiful and quiet resort this is the one.

We spent a few wonderful days at Twin Waters, hosted by Andrew, and the experience was simply magical. Nestled between the river and the sea—less than 100 meters apart—the place is a true haven of peace, surrounded by stunning nature. The nearby village offers an authentic glimpse of local life: fishermen, unpaved streets, children’s dance classes, a small church… And just 2 km away, the bird sanctuary is a true gem for nature lovers. Starting at 6 a.m., the sky comes alive with the graceful flight of beautiful birds—an unforgettable sight.
The chalets are well spaced out, offering total privacy. The meals, both Sri Lankan and European-inspired, are delicious and lovingly prepared by Andrew’s attentive team. The staff are incredibly caring, and the fellow guests we met were warm and inspiring, adding even more magic to the stay.
A true hidden gem, a timeless escape. Without hesitation: 10/10.

Edward and his family were the gentlest of people who cared so much about our stay and comfort. Nothing was too much trouble. The location of the hotel is sensational bordered on one side by a lake full of wildlife and on the other by the sea with a beautiful and very empty beach. Dinner was delicious and my wife still raves about her curry. Fully recommend...
The mosquitos. Bring repellent and you'll be fine.

A beautiful place, away from the noise and busy streets. Perfect for relaxation. Beautiful surroundings, a view of the ocean from the resort restaurant, and a view of the lagoon from the terrace of the house. The room is large, comfortable, European standard. The owner is cheerful, friendly and very talkative, but also imposing. The resort literally borders on a long, beautiful beach. The area is also a fantastic place for bird watching. a place worth recommending
Access road in poor condition

Genuinely hospitable and lovely family running this very comfortable boutique operation in a peaceful location between the bird sanctuary and the beach. Food was excellent. Definitely recommended.

After a busy period in my life, I decided to take a short break in a peaceful place to recharge before traveling around Sri Lanka. Choosing to stay at Twin Waters Resort was undoubtedly the best decision I could have made.
Eduard, Manel, Luke, and Tracey were exceptionally kind and attentive throughout my stay. The hotel is stunning—quiet, serene, and perfect for relaxation. The infinity pool was a highlight, offering the ideal spot to unwind, and my room was impeccably clean with an amazing view of the tranquil lake behind the property.
This place was perfect for relaxing, meditating, and regaining my energy before continuing my travels. Manel and Luke’s cuisine was absolutely delicious, Eduard’s warm and welcoming conversations made me feel right at home, and the entire team truly went above and beyond to ensure my stay exceeded all expectations.
I genuinely felt spoiled by everyone at Twin Waters Resort. The level of care and service was remarkable. I highly recommend this place to anyone seeking a peaceful retreat where they can reconnect with themselves and be warmly cared for by an incredible team.
I wish I could have stayed longer.

A very peaceful place to start or end a holiday in Sri Lanka. The owner family couldn’t be more obliging and kind and looked after us superbly.
Thank you for your information!
