TL;DR

In Unawatuna, beach sunbeds are increasingly charged separately even if you order food or drinks. A free sunbed with a purchase may still be available at a few venues, so ask about the policy before ordering.

What the community said

Recent experience suggests that many Unawatuna beachfront cafés charge separately for a sunbed, regardless of whether you order food or drinks.

The old arrangement of buying something and using a sunbed all day for free used to be common at beach cafés, but it should no longer be treated as the standard policy.

If a free sunbed is important, confirm the terms with staff before ordering; such deals may still exist but appear to be uncommon.
