Polhena beach is an excellent place to have a safe swim for a traveller and can see turtles in the sea if you are lucky enough. And can visit Matara light house and Kudawalla water air hole by travelling a bit from Matara which has another nice beach.

Polhena is a nice village, Matara is a nice city with friendly people. There is lots to do in this area.
For example guided snorkling at Polhena Beach where you can really swim with the turtles, a boattrip on the Nilwala Ganga where you can see crocodiles.
Or visit the Starfort.
A great restaurant in Matara city is Dutchmanstreet restaurant. In Polhena i recommend eating at Sunil Rest, Blue Corals or Reef Edge restaurant.
Walking around at night in Polhena... take a stick and flash light with you, the street dogs just had puppys (cute) but their mother instinct gave me the creeps.

Matara is great transport hub, has fast bus connection with Colombo (via expressway). Also most buses on south pass through Matara. Though it's not a good place to stay longer - crowds, no good beaches, high prices.

We stayed at Turtle Eco Beach Hotel.
We stayed at Turtle Eco Beach Hotel. Olympic or near Olympic length pool, but only two lanes wide. Quite unique. The owners are French as are many of the guests. But so many languages can be heard there. Very family friendly!
We traveled back and forth to Polhena Beach (about 1.5 km to the south) for snorkeling daily. (Between 08:00 AM and noon, the water is the clearest.) Sadly, during our stay, the daily low tides coincided with - roughly - that same span of time, so we had to be extra careful to avoid getting scratched up by the coral reef.
Our stay was for three days from 15-18 January. We saw sea turtles every day and could even feed them "sea grass" by hand.
We ate near the hotel or near Polhena Beach and avoided going into town...
Huge family room with a large king bed and two singles, plus a balcony. Excellent air conditioning and fans, plus mosquito nets. Lovely pool and the bar and restaurant overlooking the sea was fantastic. Great food, fantastic views - we saw sea turtles from the bar area and got to swim with the turtles in nearby Polhena beach (although I think you could snorkel just next to the hotel and they were able to lend us snorkels). There are other restaurants nearby too within walking distance. Staff were so friendly and helpful. Lovely gift shop too!
Very spacious, our favorite spot was the terrace where we always had breakfast, Sri lankan breakfast was the best!
The host and his mother were amazing, helped us out with everything! So kind with children.
Very close walking distance to the surfers spot and also turtle watching. Also the supermarket was very close and the main road so very easy for us to visit nearby beaches like Mirissa and Coconut Hill.
Also they helped us out for the transfer to our next destination! So altogether great!! Thank you for everything :)
Everything was perfect and amazing. The boutique hotel was an exceptional place to relax and unwind. It offers great family entertainment such as pool facilities, free bicycles for anyone to have a relaxed ride around the area, delicious food to satisfy anyone's palette and taste and they arrange trips to the turtle farms, whale watching tours or anywhere you wish to visit during your stay. From the owner Dr Prasad to everyone there make sure that you are well looked after to the maximum.
The property is beautifully designed and the build quality of the villas and rooms is very high. It’s located on an uncrowded beach with few houses and great waves. The owners are the best and most experienced hosts we’ve ever had and made us feel at home and welcome from the first minute we arrived. The staff is super friendly and go above and beyond to make you feel in paradise. Bonus: a superb pool area and heavenly yet affordable massages and great food.
A gem on a beautiful surfer beach. Good WiFi, zoom-enabled, great rooms and fantastic modern architecture. A hotel with the standard in the price range is something very special compare to the quality price is very cheap. Clean and very nice service. Staff was super great. it has a very family atmosphere. We had a very nice modern kitchen in our room.beautiful balcony with sea view.beach is clean, relatively empty and swimming and surfing is possible
superfriendly hotel-team especially 'yaya' who has always an open eye and is a wonderful person

i loved it 🏝
One of the best place in Sri Lanka! Suits are very clean and cozy well arranged with furnitures and plants. Nice sea view from the apartment.
Rooftop was great! They have very good surf lessons. Airport taxi services are great and professional recommended!
I will back again for sure with my family.
Thank you for your great hospitality.
It was nice and clean. It's kind of between Hiriketiya Beach and Dickwella Beach, but it's on a hill, so just be prepared to be a little sweaty. 😉
The staff was very nice and there were almost no mosquitos in my room. The bed was comfy and there were plenty of plugs and light sources. Also a nice little patio to relax on outside.
1. For my wife - best hotel during our stay in Sri Lanka
2. Spacey and comfortable room
3. Calm and really nice view from terrace
4. Best garden with palm trees and big swimming pool
5. Sound of sea
6. Nice breakfast
7. Good service (special thanks for cleaning lady, that did laundry for us)
8. Dogs - my daughter loved them
Right on the beach road just steps away from the beach. Can't beat this location. Easy to walk everywhere. Room was very clean. Ac worked well. Just turn it on before you head out for dinner and it's perfect by the time you get back. Lovely host, sweet and friendly. Dining options right in front of you on the beach.
Sayuri Beach Hotel is a terrific option for travelers looking for an affordable beach stay at Polhena, Matara because it offers a great blend of comfort, affordability, great locations, and exceptional service. The host was amiable and made sure his visitors had a good time.
It is so peaceful and beautiful there! The outdoor swinging bed is heaven! The grounds are lovely and the pool is a perfect place to relax.
When the tide is out, there's also a small beach.
They offered to prepare fish for us on our first night- it was delicious!
Buddhika & his family are wonderful hosts, and went to great lengths to ensure I had a comfortable and safe stay. They were so welcoming, the breakfast was perfect, and sound of rain on the tin roof was quite relaxing. Nearby to Matara and good location. Thank you!
Nice starnad of the facilities, great breakfast (we asked for Sri Lanka specials), close to the beach and to bus stop. Clean rooms with all you would expect from a nice, budget hotel. Helpful owner and staff.
A great little hotel with friendly staff in an excellent location just a short walk from Madiha Beach. Pool is a nice feature and rooms are good size with nice ambient lighting. Would definitely stay again.
Nice place. lovely open rooms overlooking beach. good pool well kept. friendly, hospitable staff. location fabulous. tallala beach beautiful and unspoilt. easy access to other places along coast.
Legends everywhere. Amazing food, people and experiences surrounded by beach and jungle.
By far one of the best hostel/bars/ in sri lanka if not the world.
