Nice and very modern rooms. Close to the beach and lots of restaurants. Don't let yourself be fooled by the picture of the garage door. It's not a garage at all but a proper hotel 😅

The breakfast was tasty, served with omlette and bread and coffee. The staffs were absolutely friendly, they helped me arranged everything, and helped me buying cigarettes because I don't know local languange and where is the cigarette shop. The resort was quite close to the beach, like 1 minute walking you can arriving the beach, the sunrise was definetely amazing coz the beach was facing east. Diving with shoy's diving center was also an amazing adventure, the owner and the staffs of shoy's diving center have a lof of diving experience, and also very friendly. On the last day of my stays, the resort arranged me a cab to the airport, the driver's name was ISHAM, who had a lovely heart, conversable and friendly. He showed me plenty of beautiful views on the way to the airport, leaded me to a Lake side and we had a cigarette together with a perfect lake view. I was on a bad mood actually, but I really found a little peace when I was sitting on the lake side and having the cigarette.

Amanda

From

I love coming here, this is my 3rd visit. I love the open space of the resort, the quite nature, the palm trees, the relaxed poolside, the beach views, the calm ocean is great for swimming. Everything about this resort is amazing for adults, this is my happy place to unwind and re-fill my cup. The staff are caring and kind, the food and cocktails at the beachside restaurant is delicious, we enjoyed beautiful soulful music by the very talented musician who plays multiple instruments. The buffet breakfast is to die for, so many delicious options and food choices. The rooms are simple, large and clean, with comfy beds and amazing views out to the pool / ocean. You can do as little or as much as you like, easy to ride into town and see the local sights or go snorkelling, diving or just relax.

FAQs about hotels in Nilaveli

What guests said about Nilaveli:

I liked the small hotel we stayed in on the beach front (...

I liked the small hotel we stayed in on the beach front (Mithra Paradise) and the semi-private beach. A real gem if you're looking for a quiet romantic place. Much better than the big faceless commercial hotels. I would recomemmend the small guest houses in the whole of SL for this reason as the service is exceptional and they are usually family-run so they put a lot of love and effort into pleasing their guests. No mosquitoes in July. Avoid the dolphin watching 'chasing' tours. Loads of boats making a big noise and running over the dolphins. Poor animals. You only glimpse them for a few seconds and the boat ride is hell on your back. Try the snorkelling instead.

A much more peaceful beach holiday that at neighbouring Uppaveli, so if you want to get away from the crowds, it’s a perfect spot. The surrounding countryside looks beautiful too - I wish we’d have had more time to explore. We ate at Sara’s fish restaurant, where the seafood kottu & prawn curry were delicious.

Nilaveli is the perfect beach if you want peace and quiet , not many shops or facilities about, a few ok restaurants near by some expensive for Sri Lanka even more pricey than England, would need to travel 15km by local Tuk Tuk to find a good choice in Trincomalee-Nilaveli-Pulmodai which around 2000 rupees each way

Very soft golden sand. Sea was not rough during our stay. Snorkeling trips are arranged by guides to nearby Pigeon Island. Pristine corrals and species. May be less restaurants along the beach, and not much of public facilities like toilets and wheelchair access etc

Nilaveli has a lot to offer.

Nilaveli has a lot to offer. The lower part of the beach closer to Trincomalee is very much like Bali or Goa with lots of accommodation including budget friendly options. It has many small cafes and restaurants right on the beach. There are also many dive shops offering diving experiences at Pigeon Island just off the coast. The upper end of the beach is more secluded and has fewer beach cafes and bars. This is where the larger more upmarket Nilaveli Beach Hotel is located.

We had a great time at the Nilaveli beach resort. The staff was really very nice. What is not said is that, on the beach, next to the resort, there is an exceptionnal spectacle every day: traditionnal fishing. Fishermen bring an enormous net with a boat, about 1 km away from the shore. The net is linked with 2 long ropes that 20 people pull up from the beach for about 2 hours. Estonishing to discover how many fishes they bring that way in their net!

Excellent. We were very well looked after by Eric and the team and particular mention should go to Kabi and Danu. The property is highly original and stylish; the food is delicious. We were able fully to relax on the small private beach area. There are no restaurants nearby, but a walk into north Nilaveli and a reservation (in advance) at 'My Kind of Place' is recommended - delicious fresh fish. A wonderful stay at C Beyond and very memorable.
