Helis Place  

In the heart of Unawatuna, a five-minute walk from the beach and a short drive to Jungle Beach, Unawatuna Beach and the Japanese Peace Pagoda. Helis Place sits close to Yatagala Raja Maha Viharaya and the Galle district sights.

This small guesthouse has just five air-conditioned rooms with refrigerators, private bathrooms and separate sitting areas. Expect a relaxed, peaceful vibe, desks in-room, complimentary toiletries, slippers and limited housekeeping — wake up to sea-breeze mornings and easy beach access.

Take a dip in the outdoor pool, rent bicycles to explore the coastline, and get help planning local tours with on-site tour/ticket assistance. Complimentary wireless internet keeps you connected while you unwind.

Express check-in and check-out, a 24-hour front desk and laundry facilities make stays simple. Free self parking is available onsite and a roundtrip airport shuttle can be arranged for a surcharge; complimentary newspapers are provided in the lobby.

Room service is available during limited hours, and continental breakfasts are served daily from 7 AM to 11 AM for a fee — perfect fuel before a morning swim or a day exploring Galle.
