Nice little Guest House near the beach - only across the railway. Was quite weird to cross the railway without any crossing path. Beach was full of people, restaurants on the beach a bit overpriced.

Amazing Place. Super clean - the cleanest place we stayed in Sri Lanka!! Hot showers, cold AC, comfortable beds. There is a kitchen with all of the facilities, tea and coffee was provided and the living room had a tv which we had to ourselves as we were the only guests! Location is a lovely quiet area, listening to the birds in the morning with a cup of tea was like heaven 😍 We also enjoyed watching the fish as there are 2 tanks and a fish pond, and there are some of the cutest dogs with the owners upstairs. The staff were fantastic. Wish we found this place earlier and booked a longer stay, but we are flying home today. Highly recommend this Guesthouse

We had an amazing stay here. The hosts, Sam and Steph, are the most kind, welcoming people you could meet. The staff are very helpful, nothing was a problem for them. The Sri Lankan omelette for breakfast was the best I'd had in the three weeks of travelling the country. Mount Bay Guest House rooms have all that you would expect at more expensive hotels. All the boxes are ticked. A very comfortable stay.
