“Epic Unawatuna, tucked away on a quiet street a short walk from Unawatuna Beach, feels like a true Sri Lankan escape with its Dutch colonial style and garden views; the hotel makes it easy to explore with bicycle rentals and guided city tours. In my opinion, it's a smart pick for both couples and families with its spa, babysitting services, and relaxed vibe.”
