Situated on a lovely part of the beach . Be aware that due to the reef, it's not suitable for swimming but plenty of spots nearby.. It's suitable for a dip. It's lovely to hear the waves crashing in at night Staff are fantastic, and the Sri Lankan breakfast is a must try - delicious ! All breakfast options were delicious. Nice plunge pool Very clean rooms with mossie net and tea and coffee Very comfortable bed

Such a lovely boutique hotel (they only have 5 rooms) We were the only guests, so we had a great service from the staff. The breakfast was the best we have had in Sri lanka during our 3 week stay. Very varied and delicious. We had dinner at the hotel a few nights and all food was excellent. The bed was super comfy as were the pillows. Access directly onto the beach which was clean. A short walk along the beach to a couple of beach bars. Lovely hotel garden with tree shade if required, with sunbeds and towels.
swimming pool is a little on the small side, more a plunge pool really. Big step down into the pool, which was fine for us, but might cause a problem for anyone with mobiity problems.

Lovely hotel with garden overlooking the sea. Really quiet and secluded. Staff really helpful and friendly, we had breakfast and dinner in the pagoda in the garden with the sound of the waves. Lovely room and bathroom, birds and monkeys to watch and the sea on our doorstep.

This place is a true oasis of luxurious calm set amidst the hustle and bustle of the local town. Damith (the manager) and his small but amazingly efficient team do everything to cater for your needs with the minimum of fuss. The whole place is kept spotlessly clean, the rooms are gorgeous and comfortable. The garden, which leads directly into a small beach, is picture perfect. I could genuinely write chapter and verse about the food - simply outstanding! Having the option to dine inside, outside on a shaded table or in the delightful gazebo that has uninterrupted views out to sea (idyllic) just somehow makes the food taste even better! As the place only operates 5 rooms, it feels like everything is a personal service which, to a large extent, it is! The decor is fresh and relaxing. There is a permanent Tuk Tuk driver outside the gates to ‘whisk’ you away to wherever you need to go and a Tuk Tuk is the only way to travel short distances in my opinion (<5 miles). I simply cannot fault this place and almost don’t want to recommend it in case it becomes too popular and I can’t get a room when I next need one! Having said that, I have never felt better relaxed after a trip (and I’ve travelled a lot) than having stayed here so unreservedly recommend this place if you are thinking Galle or Unawatuna for a holiday - AMAZING!
Absolutely nothing! If you forced my hand to come up with something, the pool could be bigger but that’s not enough to move away from a score of 10

It is no exaggeration to say this is possibly the best small hotel we have ever stayed in. Our room and terrace led on to an area of grass and trees in front of a fence overlooking the ocean. We ate at a table nearby, while cute palm squirrels played and monkeys visited above. The quality of the food was very high - notably the egg hoppers at breakfast. The manager and the other staff were all delightful and most helpful.

We loved our stay. The staff were wonderful and we ate supper there every night as the food was excellent. Best breakfast ever and best mango I have ever had and I’m old! Peaceful and beautiful. Wonderfully comfortable beds and pillows.

Beautiful calm hotel, lovely garden overlooking the sea. There are only a few rooms so it is quiet. We had breakfast at a table they arranged looking at the sea. The room was a good size with a big bathroom. Staff were very kind and helpful.
The pillows were not great. Nothing else negative to say at all.

We had the best stay of our holiday here. It was superb in every way. We had been non-stop prior to our arrival so we did nothing, but eat, sleep and relax here. The food was also some of the best we'd tasted while in Sri Lanka. Thank you.

Quite amazed by previous reviews, which to be fair was reason I booked, so I have included photos for you to make up own mind ! Swimming pool (pic attached) is not a swimming pool it’s plunge pool at best more of a pond in reality, but for me the owner allowing his many dogs to swim in the pool is not very hygienic and when challenged on this, he replied that it’s perfectly acceptable for dogs to be allowed in pool because he runs a boutique hotel! (I’m still trying to work that remark out) Pic of the pina colada is how it arrived I not drank any or touched it and they charge 12 usd for that, it was shocking! Pic shows the water (described sauce) my Spaghetti ragu was floating in. Not exactly welcoming or any information given on arrival, first impressions of outside is poor and it don’t get much better on inside….staff don’t appear to be very happy, (which was later confirmed) Rooms very tired and dated, as is the all the property Many Mozzies in rooms, to save cost the hotel turns of the plug in mozzie protection in rooms during the day! (Penny pinching in the extreme) Dined on New Years Eve at sister venue some 500 yards away, food was shocking, attached pic shows beef (claimed to be Wagyu) swimming in blood, Chef never heard or resting meat clearly! Charging 150 usd for bottle of cloudy bay white wine and 180 usd for bottle of tattinger that’s higher prices than Maldives who only charge 120 and 150 for same on 5 star resorts! New Years Eve eve dinner had no background music playing and was just dead with no ambiance at all, service was erratic and slow, nothing resembled menu the ol evening was all a sham and money making exercise ! I informed owner of all these problems, of course he did not like comments! But that’s another story but pictures attached confirm all the above, so make up own mind
Does not seem a happy venue like 99% of the places in Sri Lanka whatever the standard you choose to stay and Locals say it used to be good venue with previous lady British owner, but now run by Indian guy, it’s got many problems, but that’s just from locals speaking, make up your own mind at the standards of this venue by attached pictures

This wonderful oasis of a hotel might just top the list of the most memorable places we've ever stayed, not to mention eat. Every room and the entire garden looked fantastic with the most beautiful pool and direct access to the sea. Every day we enjoyed the fantastic food. The food is some of the best we have ever had. The quality and taste are amazing!! The staff did so much making our stay as best as possible. They were always sweet and ready to help and offer good advice, especially thanks to Damith. Thank you for an amazing stay! Without a doubt, we can highly recommend Satin Doll.
All good.

This boutique hotel is gorgeous!! The design, interior and surroundings are absolutely breathtaking. It is a perfect place to rest and feed your soul. The staff and service is impeccable and the food is delicious. It was by far the best place we have stayed at during our 3 month trip to Sri Lanka. I have shared it with all my friends and I cannot recommend this place enough!
Nothing. This place is well managed, clean and absolutely gorgeous.
