Our stay here was one of the most memorable parts of our time in Sri Lanka. Right in front of the beach, this beautiful lodge was more than just a place to stay—it was a home, filled with warmth, good energy, and unforgettable people. From day one, Che Che and his amazing team made us feel like family. Always smiling, always ready with the best local recommendations, and so genuinely passionate about sharing the story of how he created the lodge—it was inspiring to hear and made our experience even more meaningful. Every detail, from the welcoming atmosphere to the peaceful beachside setting, was just perfect. We left with full hearts and can’t wait to return. Thank you, Che Che and all your team, for everything. We already miss it! From Marta & Sam

You have to stay here! Thilan and his family made us feel so welcome from the moment we arrived — greeted with flowers, garlands, and fresh watermelon juice. Our room was spacious, spotless, and beautifully decorated, with a comfy bed, great shower, and lovely balcony. The bed was huge, the bathroom lovely, and there was plenty of space (plus a drying rack for swimwear!). The shower takes a minute to heat up, but with the warm weather, it’s hardly needed. Rooms aren’t serviced daily unless requested, but Thilan is very responsive on WhatsApp for anything you need. Both breakfast and dinner were the best we had in Sri Lanka — fresh fruit, smoothies, and amazing Sri Lankan dishes made with spices and coconuts from their garden. Absolutely delicious! Thilan helped organise all our transfers, and the rooftop views and peaceful atmosphere made our stay perfect. It’s a short walk to the beach and felt very safe. Thilan also helped organise a mobile massage therapist so I was able yo have a massage on the rooftop, which was amazing with the sea breeze. We left feeling so cared for — this stay will always be a special memory. Thilan and his family went above and beyond to make our trip unforgettable. We left feeling like part of the family. Thank you for making our stay so memorable. Stay here, eat here, and you’ll see why everyone loves it!

We tried both rooms and had an excellent, restful experience at Ruvee Nature Rest. Everything is true to photos. The room is spacious, the furniture is beautiful, everything is clean, our warm & friendly host Dinu is also a WhatsApp text away if we needed anything. Beds were so comfortable and towels were soft & fluffy. Do remember to bring along your own shower gel & shampoo. Breakfast was delicious and of great value! There's also a self-catering area along the corridor with a stove, kettle, sink, etc. if you want to make a cup of tea and enjoy the view. Great location close to restaurants, supermarkets and Mirissa Beach, yet very quiet at night. Wished we could've stayed longer!

Extremely welcoming and helpful family. Lovely property with nice new fresh rooms. I was stuck with nowhere to stay due to a misunderstanding. They took me in late at night, I had no bags with me, they gave me PJ's which was honestly such a lovely lovely thing to do. The breakfast the next-day was gorgeous. Dhal, sambol, potato curry, hoppers, the lot!! 2 types of desert. Genuinely lovely people. AND THEIR DOG!!! omg, the cutest fluff Ball I've ever seen.

We had a surprising very good stay with Dayana and Neil and their children, the hosts of the guest house. Very quiet area for a good sleep, the jungle sounds wake you up in the morning. Nice beds with mosquito nets, a own kitchen to use if you want to, and otherwise some local and also fancy places around to find food and drinks. Would come definitely back to the house. Thank you
