My favourite stay of our trip in Sri Lanka! An absolutely beautiful hotel immersed in nature. Right on the beach, you can walk from your room (we stayed in two of the beach tree houses) to the bar/restaurant area to the pool and to the beach. Shoes not required!

Great location and style of cabanas, with treehouses and lovely seating area. Gorgeous pool too! The thing that let it down was the very oily and buttery tasting food! I ordered a curry, but it just tasted of butter, and not a nice tasting butter. Far too rich. Not coconut milk. Really strange taste.

Since our first trip to Sri Lanka in 2012 we have kept returning to Cinnabar. Magical enviroment at one of the most beautiful beaches in the world. Fantastic bungalows and treehouses surronded by amazing rainforrest. Unmatched friendly staff that goes all the way to make your stay the best. And last but not least the best food you can imagine with a mix of traditional Sri Lankan food whith a luxury twist and Italian food as pasta and pizza. Go there you wont regret it.

Would highly recommend this hotel for anyone seeking a relaxing and laid back getaway. The food is delicious and freshly prepared, and the pool area is beautiful and very well maintained. One of the highlights is the beach, which feels almost private. We loved lounging on the bean bags while watching the sunset in the evenings. The staff are amazing, so friendly, attentive and always willing to go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable. For instance, when we were figuring out how to get to our next destination, they not only provided detailed bus information but also arranged a tuk-tuk spacious enough for our large bags and made sure we got on the right bus. While the rooms don’t have air conditioning due to their open-air design, they are equipped with fans and mosquito nets, making the nights comfortable.

had an amazing time at the cinnabar resort, a friend recommended I stay here and it was asome, We are a young couple in our 20s and had great time. It was by far the best hotel I have stayed in, with a unique location and amazing views, truly 5 star. It does have the price to match, but it my opinion it was worth it. Mainly for the immaculate grounds and unbeatable service. Good looking beverage and food menu also tasty, sunset cocktails was brilliant, beast seafood so far in Sri Lanka, thanks to Charlie for helping us, and he's very cute, when he was smile so handsome, we found very nice Tour driver in cinnabar, Nisal excellent driver, highly recommend him for tour around the island, thanks to all staff for wonderful service, definitely we will be back..

Best place in Sri Lanka so far! Overwhelmed by the quirky, beautifully designed accommodation on a stunning corner of Sri Lanka. You can choose from a treehouse, a clay hut or little apartments set amongst nature, but right on the beach. We were able to view all of them and choose. Cinnabar is a quiet, mellow place to stay but with a great atmosphere. The restaurant food is sooooo tasty and they can't do enough for you. Everything is kept really clean and tidy and the brothers who run it are super friendly, but in a nice subtle way. Never trying to sell you anything, like in some places. They just want you to enjoy your time in Sri Lanka and get to know you as friends. The best places I've stayed in,in 7 weeks of being in Sri Lanka. Great italiano wood oven pizzeria, seafood platter asome tosome, best fusion cocktails in sri lanka which i had whole trip. Owner kamal very Help Full and also he's ex.chef is master i guess, food and beverage menu was very Creative, better than any Where else in thangalla... Thanks chef again wonderful menu and delicious selection.. We highly recommend this place to anyone and wish the Cinnabar team all the luck in the world as they truly deserve it! We will be back! X

Visited Cinnabar just for lunch today. Prompt service and the food was excellent. Good portion size and very tasty. Lovely location on a pretty beach. The experience was a bit spoilt by being shortchanged by 500 LKR. It was rectified once we pointed it out.

Someone had a dream and made it come true. If you have also dreamed of spending your vacation in a tree house by the beach, there is probably no better place. In addition, great food and friendly service, a fantastic swimming pool. Not many places deserve 5, but I have no doubts about this place. Just remember that you are in the jungle and communing with nature.
