A wonderfully peaceful place, a beautiful, spacious room with a huge bed and a balcony overlooking the trees and the monkeys that live there😍Very clean bathroom, hot water and toiletries. Very nice owners, very helpful. The whole building was calm and quiet. One of the best places I've been to during my trip to SriLanka. There is a restaurant next door, there are breakfasts and lunches. The restaurant is owned by the same owners. They also have a tuk tuk available so you can arrange a ride if you want to keep going. Highly recommended☺️And most importantly, opposite, just after crossing the street is the descent to the beach where you can admire the turtles and 3 minutes to Coconut Tree Hill. Beautiful place.

Fantastic time on superb location with most kind host family. It is situated just at the iconic Dondra Light house, next to the pleasant beach and has its own beach bar with hanging net over the water. Place is not hard to acces. The room is fresh and tasty, bed is comfy. Bathroom is clean, mine (upper apartment) had direct lighthouse view with amazing morning and evening parrot chirps. Room has beach and garden view. Hosts are heartwarmingly nice and will help you with every wish. They have cooked me delicious authentic Srilankan cuisine, breakfasts at the beach bar were unforgettable. Absolutely recommended and I wish I will come again.

The bedroom was nice and comfy, with a clean bathroom and with soap and shampoo. The breakfast were local and different every day so perfect, and the guy who runs it very helpful and friendly. We asked if they could put our waters in the fridge to have them cold the next day and they did. They even helped us contact a tuktuk to bring our bags without us to the next location.

A wonderful guesthouse! The staff is friendly and welcoming. The room is clean, bright, and free from any signs or smells of mold. The bed linens and towels are spotless, without any stains. The shared kitchen is well-equipped with a refrigerator, kettle, gas stove, and dishes. There are several dining options nearby, including an Italian restaurant, a cafe serving delicious European breakfasts, a couple of cafes with tasty local cuisine, and a burger joint. The beach is just a 7-10 minute walk away, as is the supermarket. Thanks to the host for their hospitality. If we find ourselves in Mirissa again, we will definitely stay here. And Huge thanks to the host, Heshan, for assisting us with an unforeseen room extension due to flight issues

This is such a cute cabin! You can see that the owners really put effort in making this cabin the home of everybody who stays there. All the amazing details: flowers by the sink, the little carpets, the hanging clothes rail, the small drawings, the beautiful towels... it adds up to a beautiful experience! The bed is a bit hard but pretty much like most sri Lankan beds of this budget. And it is also far from human noises at night.
