Santori

4.5(89 reviews)

About

Meet Santori, a local business in Sri Lanka. Its address on Devala Road, Yaddehimulla, places it in Unawatuna, on the island's southern coast. As a guest house, it offers rooms rather than full hotel service, and five photographs on the listing show the property and its setting.

Santori is known for its position near the beach at Unawatuna, with Galle and Mirissa along the same stretch of coast and Colombo, Negombo, Bentota, Kandy and Arugam Bay spread across the island. A 4.5 out of 5 average across 89 reviews reflects a strong following among travellers who stay here. First-time visitors should expect a small-scale guest house rather than a large resort, with the southern coastline and its towns within easy reach.

Sri Lanka's tropical climate brings two monsoon systems that deliver rain to different coasts at different times, so the southern shore has its own pattern. Sinhala and Tamil are the official languages, and English is widely used in administration and tourism, which helps visitors get around.

The island was known as Ceylon until 1972, gained independence in 1948, and holds ancient cities at Anuradhapura and Polonnaruwa. Tea and cinnamon are major crops, and Jaffna cooking uses its own blend of spices. Asian elephants, sloth bears and leopards live in national parks including Yala and Wilpattu, both within reach of the southern coast.
