The hotel is stunning, it feels very luxurious for a reasonable price for european standards. The staff is super friendly and helpful, especially the manager Shyakthi. We ended up staying 2 more nights. The biggest highlight was the private beach, we were there alone most of the time and the sea is perfect for swimming. The beach is equipped with sun beds and a shower. The hotel offers 4 course dinner for 7000 rupees per person and ayurvedic massage for 35 dollars. It is the perfect place if you want to relax in a beach resort.

We had a fantastic stay at US Cabanas. The owner is incredibly friendly and always willing to help with anything we needed, which made the experience feel very welcoming. The pool is clean and perfect for relaxing, and the location couldn’t be better, just a short walk to the beach and restaurants. The real highlight, though, is the crocodile lake right outside the entrance. Only a few steps away, we were able to watch wild crocodiles and an amazing variety of birdlife. We also had a great sleep in the comfy beds, and the breakfast was very good. It’s a unique spot that combines comfort, convenience, and a touch of wild nature highly recommended!

First of all, this hotel is an absolute bargain and is priced too low. Everything is brand new, pool was perfectly nice, good temp and modern, room is spacious and super clean. We stayed at the most expensive hotels in Sri Lanka, and the AC here was newer and better. We also had a lovely spacious balcony. It’s a beautiful no frills hotel and for the price you pay, you can’t expect luxury and if you want more comfortable mattresses then go with a more expensive hotel. A tip about the wifi: if it doesn’t work anymore you just need to ask the receptionist to re-charge it for you.

FAQs about hotels in Nilaveli

What guests said about Nilaveli:

10

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.

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!

Lovely, friendly family, especially the mum who made a good breakfast. Great location very close to the beach. Nice to have a balcony in peaceful surroundings. It was great that we could easily organise our trip to pigeon island through the hotel. We really loved Nilaveli. It is a lot quieter and more authentic than other beach areas around here.

Boutique style hotel with a nice pool and direct access to the beach. Miran was great. He always had a smile, organised sun beds, and if you pre booked your food, he’d have it ready for you. Fresh fish available every night.
