The staff were ridiculously nice, caring, and very genuine. The food was amazing - we loved the Sri Lankan food the most! The poolside bar has great service and food as well! Great location - right in front of surf and nearby shops.

It was well maintained and clean. The property is on the beach, which amazing views from the room balcony. The property is located very centrally and it’s just walking distance to Kurumba Beach Club and Kai Beach club. The rooms were cleaned everyday, new bedding, towels, it was like walking into a brand new room everyday. They left water, teabags and sugar. There was a bar fridge with soda and water - for convenience. The room furniture and decor was nice and esthetic, balcony was clean and you could sit with your tea or drinks and watch the sunset. The staff at the reception was extremely helpful, when I arrived they brought me coffee, when I was leaving they brought me some fresh juice, extremely tentative and paid attention to small details. The staff were friendly helpful and polite. I 10/10 recommend anyone staying here, it’s a new guesthouse, clean and safe.

Was a great spot to stay, beds were super comfy, rooms were spacious with a little private balcony and a shared large balcony and lounge room, shared kitchen to use too. Balcony overlooked the monkeys in the trees. Staff were super friendly and helped us with any questions we had. And so close to the beach

Mirissa in my opinion has a completely different vibe to the other beach areas I stayed at being Hiriketiyah and Unawatuna. While it does have attractions like Coconut Hill, it lacks the intimacy, character and ambience of the above mentioned beach areas and for that reason I would advise a shorter stay to experience Mirissa. One night was adequate for me.

Weligama is a truly charming coastal town that offers the perfect balance of natural beauty, relaxation, and local culture. The famous Weligama beach with its golden sands and gentle waves is ideal for swimming, surfing, and long peaceful walks, especially during sunset. The area has a calm and welcoming atmosphere, with friendly locals, excellent seafood, and a variety of cafes and restaurants to enjoy. Whether you are looking for adventure, wellness, or simply a quiet escape, Weligama provides a refreshing and memorable experience. Its scenic surroundings, lush greenery, and warm hospitality make Weligama a must-visit destination for anyone travelling to Sri Lanka.

Matara isn't a big town so it is relatively quick to get from A to B. The beach is beautiful. But there aren't that many restaurants in in the town. The Matara Rest House near the fort had good food and drinks and is one of the most worth it dining options nearby. Lemon is also a good option. There are restaurants closer to the touristy spots but those are on the pricier side. snorkeling with turtles is popular in Matara.

Hiriketiya Beach is a small, horseshoe-shaped bay with beautiful clear water, gentle rolling waves and scenic palm-fringed views. It’s known for its laid-back, beach-town feel — perfect for surf, chill days on the sand, and casual hangouts. It’s popular with surfers (beginners & intermediates) — especially during the dry season (Nov–Apr) when the waves are consistent and easier to ride. Outside of surf culture, many visitors simply relax, swim, or enjoy the scenery. Good for: Surfing Chill in beach Small cafés any kind of food, yoga, and relaxing stays Sunset views

Talalla beach is clean and not crowded like many on the South coast of Sri Lanka. Relax all day under the sun and take a dip in to the warm waters of the Indian Ocean. Not really a surfing beach but the right hand end in front of Talalla Retreat is safe for swimming. Friendly locals and a small supermarket nearby. Ate at all the local restaurants - they were all excellent, especially Manju Cinnamon Hut.

The hotel management are not good to deal with and I would not recommend this place at all. It looks pretty on the outside but full of problems and poor design, unsafe and unhygienic aspects that are a major concern. Hiring hot water shower that has no safety option even when it is not on high hot water setting, it can burn. The deluxe room we were offered has no windows at all and a dingy hole with no natural light or ventilation but advertised as having an outdoor dining room. It is falsely advertised to mislead people an we refused to stay in the room and had a mattress in the sea view room for which they charged us half the room rate when we didn’t even have a ton, just a mattress an they failed to even provide a towel. Their service is horrendous - stay away from this place and don’t be misled by the pretty photos like we’re. Even beach there not safe to swim and too far from Mirissa main beach so there is really nothing going for this place except the superficial looks.
