Ivory Resort Dikwella

10/10 Excellent

"Nestled in the heart of the city, this charming boutique hotel offers easy access to nearby restaurants and beaches. The friendly staff and owner made everyone feel welcome. We felt safe and well cared for and the food was excellent. The room was clean and spacious too. I highly recommend this place."

Coastline Mirissa Boutique hotel and spa

10/10 Excellent

"Absolutely fabulous hotel , by far the nicest and cleanest hotel during our 14 night stay in Sri Lanka . Would love to have stayed longer"

Neem Boutique Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"The property is stunning and beautifully crafted, every corner of the property was picture perfect and aesthetic. The staff were extremely friendly and the manager, Rohan was super helpful - he helped us book our safari and massages. The pool is beautiful and looks exactly like the photos and is clean. The breakfast being included was super helpful and was very yummy with a good selection and excellent ingredients. Neem is extremely peaceful and relaxing. The beach right outside the hotel is stunning but not the best place to swim so I would recommend either staying by the pool or venturing out to nearby spots such as welligama or mirissa if you want to swim or polhena beach for turtle snorkelling - all within 20 minutes of the hotel. Our stay was wonderful and I would recommend this hotel to anyone, it is perfect."

Randiya Sea View Hotel

8/10 Good

"The room was large and beds very comfortable. Staff were very helpful and beach was opposite with good independent restaurants ."

Beach & Bliss Mirissa

10/10 Excellent

"Really loved the staff. The hotel is in a great location. Private access to beach. Bueatiful scenery. The only thing that I did not like about this hotel is that the beds are unfortunately hard as a rock. I loved that they had netflix though!"

Weligama Bay Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Our stay in the garden villa was really great. It was clean and spacious with a semi outdoor bathroom. The pool area was straight in front of the ocean so you could watch the waves from your sunbed. Surf board hire was cheap with a large range of boards. Drinks were cheap and food yummy."

Southbeach Weligama

10/10 Excellent

"The ocean view was very nice. Our room was one of the best and very large, it accommodated 4 people. Everything was very nice we arrived in the low season yet we enjoyed our time. The staff were splendid. We ate all our meals at the hotel restaurant because it tasted so good and the staff were so helpful and friendly."
