We walked by the hotel one day and looked it up on the internet. The hotel just opened but we booked a room for 3 nights. The owner, Enrico was the sweetest. Very good communication before we arrived at the hotel and also during our stay! The staff is very helpful! Everything is brand new. The rooms are very beautiful and the view on the rooftop is amazing. We recommend this hotel and are definitely coming back!

This place is the best in weligama. It is located 5 minutes walk from the main point and the centre of weligama and it is quiet and peaceful. You can get the getaway from the noise and still be very close to all that is good in weligama. The staff is super warm and welcoming and the rooms are spotless clean. We came to weligama mainly to surf and it was perfect for us. The hotel is located right on the beach but does not have a private beach but it is no problem as you can have so many beaches right next to it

We loved our stay here so much! The pool was fantastic and rooms were clean, comfy and had everything we needed. The food was also amazing. The highlight for us was the staff, they were all so beautiful. The owners were the friendliest hotel owners we have met. And the elder man who served us dinner/ Brekky was the sweetest, taking so much care into our meals, our stay, etc. We couldn’t recommend this place enough, and will be staying again for our next trip to Madiha 🥰🥰

It was simply precious. Private , secluded area. The owners picked us up with a jeep, organized a jungle tour for us and gave us a ride as well. The family is incredibly hard working and polite, they try their best to accommodate our wishes. The food is amazing. No AC but it wasn't necessary as it was pretty cool at night.

The room was huge and clean, the bath was big and nice aswell. And, after having spent 4 weeks in sri lanka, it is safe to say that Mzion has the best, most welcoming, friendliest and most helping personnel we've encountered. Welcome drinks, a fruit platter, organized trips, help with search for other hotels, bringing pool towels, a personal weather forecast each morning. They did it all! Plus, we could leave our luggage while on a 1 week trip AND it was the only hotel where everything in the minibar (drinks, snacks, beer) was free.

I recently stayed at Swell Shacks for one night and had an amazing experience. The hotel was exceptionally clean and well-maintained. The design of the hotel is simply stunning and perfectly complements the beautiful environment. I loved waking up to the sound of the ocean and having the beach right in front of our room. The bed was incredibly comfortable, ensuring a restful night's sleep. The breakfast provided was delicious and offered a variety of options. The view from the hotel is absolutely stunning, offering breathtaking sights. I had such a wonderful time that I will definitely be coming back in the future. I highly recommend Swell Shacks for anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable stay. Special mention for Gayantha and Madushanka, always smiling, very welcoming and helpful, they definitely make our stay even better 😃 !

There are many nice aspects about this place. It’s very quiet as it is not located near the main road. Clean spacious rooms with small kitchen. Good bed. Nice bathroom. Clean swimming pool and very relaxing garden. Yummie breakfast. Friendly staff. And all of this for a very reasonable price. Well done ! Would recommend it very much

Mirissa in my opinion has a completely different vibe to the other beach areas I stayed at being Hiriketiyah and Unawatuna. While it does have attractions like Coconut Hill, it lacks the intimacy, character and ambience of the above mentioned beach areas and for that reason I would advise a shorter stay to experience Mirissa. One night was adequate for me.

Weligama is a truly charming coastal town that offers the perfect balance of natural beauty, relaxation, and local culture. The famous Weligama beach with its golden sands and gentle waves is ideal for swimming, surfing, and long peaceful walks, especially during sunset. The area has a calm and welcoming atmosphere, with friendly locals, excellent seafood, and a variety of cafes and restaurants to enjoy. Whether you are looking for adventure, wellness, or simply a quiet escape, Weligama provides a refreshing and memorable experience. Its scenic surroundings, lush greenery, and warm hospitality make Weligama a must-visit destination for anyone travelling to Sri Lanka.

Matara isn't a big town so it is relatively quick to get from A to B. The beach is beautiful. But there aren't that many restaurants in in the town. The Matara Rest House near the fort had good food and drinks and is one of the most worth it dining options nearby. Lemon is also a good option. There are restaurants closer to the touristy spots but those are on the pricier side. snorkeling with turtles is popular in Matara.

Lovely quiet beach -large - next to its much smaller and busier little sister Hiriketiya You can have the best of both worlds if you stay in Dikwella as it is only a km walk ( pleasant ) to Hiriketiya Sunbeds are free if you if you buy a drink We particularly liked Freedom Place at far end by the trees

Talalla beach is clean and not crowded like many on the South coast of Sri Lanka. Relax all day under the sun and take a dip in to the warm waters of the Indian Ocean. Not really a surfing beach but the right hand end in front of Talalla Retreat is safe for swimming. Friendly locals and a small supermarket nearby. Ate at all the local restaurants - they were all excellent, especially Manju Cinnamon Hut.

The hotel management are not good to deal with and I would not recommend this place at all. It looks pretty on the outside but full of problems and poor design, unsafe and unhygienic aspects that are a major concern. Hiring hot water shower that has no safety option even when it is not on high hot water setting, it can burn. The deluxe room we were offered has no windows at all and a dingy hole with no natural light or ventilation but advertised as having an outdoor dining room. It is falsely advertised to mislead people an we refused to stay in the room and had a mattress in the sea view room for which they charged us half the room rate when we didn’t even have a ton, just a mattress an they failed to even provide a towel. Their service is horrendous - stay away from this place and don’t be misled by the pretty photos like we’re. Even beach there not safe to swim and too far from Mirissa main beach so there is really nothing going for this place except the superficial looks.
