Resorts With Private Cabins Instead Of Hotel Rooms?

So I may be interested in a trip to Sri Lanka, am looking for resorts that have private cabins near a beach instead of hotel rooms, I am fine with 1 - 3 star ratings because they'd usually be cheaper -- although I doubt it's true -- from what I've been led to believe.

Can you please provide me with any recommendations?

The closest beach area to Colombo is Negombo.

Negombo is just near the airport and what i would describe as a rather low grade beach strip with a string of hotels.

If your looking for something closer to Colombo look at something on the south west coast between Colombo and Galle. Galle is just an hours drive now on the new expressway!
