Awesome and friendly staff, that make you feel like at home. They have been so kind to even organize a private yoga lesson for us. The accomodation is super comfortable and clean, surrounded by a jungle-like garden. Breakfast was rich, full of yummy fruits and more. Close to the beautiful jungle beach and 7 minutes tuk tuk to weligama.

Rumesh and staff are pleasant. There is an information booklet that they have curated with everything you'd need to know , from the restaurants and supermarkets to where to go if medical attention is required . It also has a contact number for a tuktuk which was very handy and which we used to get to dinner and back. Scooters are also available for hire if required. Loved that we had all the amenities in the bathroom specially bodywash,conditioner and shampoo in generous sizes.Our room was upstairs and had a balcony and I believe it is a bit more private than downstairs. Cleanliness was top.

Bakery family is super nice and helpful. We loved the hospitality with heart. We felt like a family member. When we came we got good homemade snack and tea. We rented a scooter at their place for a really good price. For breakfast we got their fresh baked bread every day and fresh fruit salad and other things. The location was calm, little out of loud and touristic road, which we liked, so we could get a good night sleep. It is a really good place for this price. We recommend highly.

We loved staying at Lavander. The family who hosted us was so kind and always available if needed! The house is located right in front of a beach where we got to swim with turtles. It’s very quiet, and we slept so well! There are shower gels and a hairdryer available if needed. We highly recommend it 100%. Also they can arrange a taxi to go to the airport if you need ! Thank you for these 3 wonderful days!

The family are delightful. So helpful and kind. The bed is comfortable, the room a little small for us but with plenty of storage. Very close to the beach. As it is off season, many of the restaurants were not operating, however, it was very easy and cheap to get a tuk tuk to restaurants. During peak season. There are many beach front restaurants to choose from. We had a beautiful Sri lankan breakfast cooked by our host, and good coffee.

The family running the hostel is really charming, always there and with an exceptional breakfast. Location is 10mins walking to the main beach and restaurants and the neighborhood is quiet and full of animals, and trees. Definitely if I come back to Mirissa I will stay in same place

Very charming with all the nature around. The host was very friendly and catered to my gluten free needs for breakfast. Not far to walk to the beach. It is up a hill but very manageable to walk and felt safe at night. There are 2 yoga shalas on either side of the guest house. Monkeys and squirrels playing in the trees just outside.

Lovely small hotel with great hosts and staff. Stylish rooms, with best view towards the pool and beach. We even got to see some baby turtles being released to the ocean. The breakfast is really nice with all sorts of fruits, fresh pancakes and eggs however you like them. Located in quiet Batheegama, only a quick 10 min tuktuk ride to Hiriketiya.
