About Sithu Guesthouse

Beside the Bentota River in the Alawthugoda area, Sithu Guesthouse is a family-run property offering direct beach access and a quieter alternative to the resort strip further along the coast. The Indian Ocean beach lies steps away, with loungers and umbrellas provided — well-suited to couples and families wanting a low-key Sri Lankan beach stay.

Activities run deep here: canoeing, diving, snorkeling, and fishing are all arranged on-site, alongside cooking classes and cultural walking tours. Massage treatments — back, foot, neck, and full-body — are available without leaving the property.

Rooms include balconies, bathrobes, and tea-making facilities; breakfast can be delivered to the room. Bicycle rental and car hire cover the short ride to Bentota town and the 90-minute coastal road to Colombo.
