Mosvold Hotels luxury Beach Villas

  Wish we had an option to give more than 5 stars as Sundara by Mosvold really exceeded all our expectations. The hotel, we felt, was kept in immaculate condition and... read more the team has gone to great lengths to maintain the premises despite the lull in tourism due to Covid.

What made this place, even more special was the staff. From the Manager to the waiting staff all of whom were extremely attentive and were ready to oblige at all times. Hassan deserves special mention for his personal attention to detail and our comfort.
The weather wasn’t great but that didn’t deter the staff from trying. They did everything to arrange a meal on the beach but when it started raining, they made sure that everything was arranged indoors without any hesitation.
The food was excellent with the kitchen staff going to great lengths to ensure service on time without compromising on quality.

  We stayed at Sundara for 5 days and wished we could have extended it for longer. It was a wonderful experience from start to finish, and we are already... read more planning when we can come back. The service was astounding and the food was delicious (especially all the seafood and local cuisines). The hotel itself is beautiful, with a great atmosphere - one of the best aspects is how you can walk straight onto the beach to catch some spectacular sunsets. If you need a place to completely unwind and feel rejuvenated again, this is the hotel to stay at!

  Had a honeymoon stay here last week for three nights and couldn't have been happier. The staff were all very professional and the service was excellent. The rooms are lovely... read more and the space looking out onto the beach is beautiful. You won't be disappointed if you stay here.

Looks like I got exactly what I was after and then some. This perfectly manicured estate is great for those who are looking for that subtle refinement in the most picturesque of settings. I found the room rates to be extremely good value considering the level of property, service and rooms available. The moment you step foot on the premise you know you’re in for something rather special, with the beautiful entrance garden with fishes and full of colourful wild exotic flowers throughout.

The lobby is traditional yet elegant having unique local art pieces to marvel (my favourite being the masked sculptures by the entrance) with views to the star attraction the substantial green gardens with large swathing palm trees that Sri Lanka is so famous for and the most inviting pool taking center stage. The cute little outdoor dining spot has so many options yo choose from eastern to western, I tried a lot of the dishes and all very tasty, with the most notable for me being the tiger prawns!

What makes this place so special is the tranquility and privacy you get from staying here and the wonderfully friendly staff who are at your beckoning call whenever needed, without being intrusive. I even asked for king coconuts and they got them specially delivered in for me, just to make sure I was happy. Also try the mango and pineapple juice by the pool, perfectly chilled and all natural, so refreshing on those hot days. All the staff are great, Ishaan in particular though I really gelled with, he was super friendly and was always up for a chat as I was travelling solo, he even offered to take some pics for me, made me feel right at home.

My room was spacious with gorgeous views to the pool and sea, the sunsets right on your doorstep, they are some of the the most incredible I’ve ever come across on my travels, I’ve attached some pics to show you what I mean. The upstairs seating area is also another beautifully designed space curated to perfection and great for some nice pics! In fact the whole premise has ample opportunities for those perfect instagram worthy shots if you wish to do so!

If you’re after that top notch boutique hotel experience, with traditional Srilanka charm, hospitality and excellent food then look no further!

I was very sad to say goodbye to Sandara, but I’ll certainly be returning for longer next time too!!
