We were very happy to stay in this beautiful hotel with a great staff. From check-in to check-out, everything was fine. The rooms are modern and offer a fantastic view. The area is very nice and clean. The food at the Welligama Kitchen is definitely a highlight, and we enjoyed the excellent food and service a lot. We would like to express a special thank you to our personal "assistant," Nishadi; she was very kind and helpful. We would also like to thank the great kitchen and service team, with a special mention to Nazmi, Thiruna, and Fayaz. They truly made a difference by doing a fantastic job in making us feel very welcome and providing a high-end service. In conclusion, our stay was nothing short of exceptional. The combination of outstanding service, luxurious accommodations, and culinary delights made it a truly memorable experience. Without a doubt, I will be recommending this hotel to friends and family, and I look forward to returning for another delightful stay in the future. BR, Denise and Glenn

+ Enrico and his enitre team were incredibly friendly and always happy to help with any request - we couldn’t have been more grateful. They go out of their way to make your stay as pleasant as possible and provide excellent tips and recommendations. + Our room was beautifully furnished, bright, modern, and very clean. Even without using the AC, the temperature was always comfortable, with a fan that provided exactly the right level of refreshment. + The property also features a stunning rooftop with a sea view, where a restaurant will be opening (which I am sure will be just as great as the hotel)!

The staff at the nine are incredible, every single person we met. I wish we had asked for more names, but every single person was AMAZING. So caring and attentive. Myself and my partner Haran, will be back and we will bring our Family and Friends. The location is amazing, the staff amazing, the food amazing. This place deserves the success it will get because everyone works so hard to make it special. We had regular sightings of Monkeys and Peacocks which just made it more special. Well done guys on such an amazing place and for giving us such special memories, see you next year!

Such a unique beautiful calming location. The family who run the hideaway are all attentive, generous and go above and beyond to make sure you have a memorable stay. I was able to swim in the river each day and eat delicious home cooked meals 3 times a day. I had not planned to visit the rainforest or this area of Sri Lanka and I ended up pivoting to find some solace for my final three nights and I'm so glad I did. Thank you to the property owners for looking after me. I'd love to stay again when I return to Sri Lanka.

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.

Hiriketiya Beach is a small, horseshoe-shaped bay with beautiful clear water, gentle rolling waves and scenic palm-fringed views. It’s known for its laid-back, beach-town feel — perfect for surf, chill days on the sand, and casual hangouts. It’s popular with surfers (beginners & intermediates) — especially during the dry season (Nov–Apr) when the waves are consistent and easier to ride. Outside of surf culture, many visitors simply relax, swim, or enjoy the scenery. Good for: Surfing Chill in beach Small cafés any kind of food, yoga, and relaxing stays Sunset views

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.
