Where do I start? I came here for two nights and stayed nearly a month. I plan to come back it was such a heart warming experience. It was truly my pleasure to have had the opportunity to stay at Muru's place. Actually, its taken me some time just to find the correct words to share as feeling of the wonderful stay here lives in my heart and isn't so easy to put to words. The owner: The owner keeps the accommodation clean, she is almost always around if something comes up, she goes out of her way to support each guest, and above all else my experience is that her and her family are lovely caring people. Things I would never of expected a home stay owner to she with she did and really helped me out in many ways :). The accommodation/area: Truly my favorite area in Sri Lanka so far. In a wonderful and green area just on the periphery and easily walk-able to Hiriketya beach (15-20 mins walk) and very close to Blue Beach (5 min walk). The perfect balance between local and tourist amenities. Local market and restaurants a few steps away (much cheaper than Hiri and delicious). The area is quiet, friendly and feels very safe. The rooms are spacious and well done- the beds are huge -even in the dorm. There is a near full kitchen (stove top) and fridge/freezer. Mosquito nets and wifi are great. Upstairs there is a beautiful patio area and in the main area by the kitchen a large kitchen table. The roof is also pitched and so the space feels very large and warm- a really great balance to have a nice place to have a coffee in the am or sit down for a nice meal.

I had a wonderful stay at HiriCurry Hostel during my visit to Hiriketiya, Sri Lanka. The room was very clean, and the staff were friendly and supportive The hostel provides great amenities like a shared fridge, free drinking water, and a relaxed atmosphere with plenty of hammocks and a few board games. Since I visited during the quieter off-season, the vibe was peaceful and perfect for relaxing. The location is ideal—just a short walk to the beautiful Hiriketiya Beach, and close to the main road, which made it easy to pick up supplies or grab a bite from nearby local food spots. Overall, HiriCurry is a great choice for both solo and couple travelers. I definitely recommend it if you're looking for a laid-back, clean, and convenient place to stay in Hiriketiya.

Great stay for Dickwella, with a nice garden! The rooms are big, beds very long/wide and comfortable. Also comfortable (hot water) shower. The staff is incredibly friendly/eager to help, and you can order food with them. From Tamarind Moon I could walk to Hummanaya Blow Hole & Kudawella Beach one way, and Blue Beach, Hiriketiya and Dickwella Beach the other way. Small stores for snacks/water near by. Place is also easy reachable from Dickwella Bus station. Just take line 11, 334/1(?) or probably any other bus taking the highway in north east direction from Dickwella (Rs. 40 one way).

Bappa's was incredible! We booked 2 nights, but ended up staying for 4 more days. The location is just removed from the beach in a quieter area, an easy walk. The rooms/ bathrooms and kitchen were so clean and comfortable! Some of the comfiest beds I have found in a hostel. The staff was great, helping us book the extra nights and do our laundry with ease. The yard had a bunch of different chairs to sit in while enjoying morning coffee.
