Certain units in the guest house have private entrance and are equipped with desk and outdoor furniture. There is a private bathroom with bidet in some units, along with bathrobes, slippers and free toiletries. At the guest house, some units are soundproof. It was very clean and the beds were private - it felt that you have your own space. I went to different hostels in Hiriketiya, but this one is the best.

At the guest house, all units have a wardrobe. The units are equipped with a kettle, a private bathroom and free WiFi, while certain rooms here will provide you with a terrace and some have sea views. At the guest house, units are fitted with bed linen and towels. The Surf Lodge is beautifully decorated with a lot of love and taste. It offers amazing breakfast and a direct access to the beach. It is managed by the super kind Che who was always very attentive to help us organize a few things around the area. What we particularly loved about the hotel (apart from the amazing spacious rooms and the delicious (vegetarian) food) was that it is Che’s family home and has such a friendly and calming vibe :) it’s only a short walk to local restaurants and bars and Madiha’s main beach is also only a few minutes away. Thanks for having us :)

The units at the guest house feature private entrance and soundproofing so guests can enjoy a peaceful stay. There is a seating and a dining area in all units. All units at the guest house are fitted with a private bathroom and bed linen. Paba is a cool guy. He was very kind to us, allowing us to borrow and umbrella in the rain and letting us be late with the checkout due to a slow breakfast in town. Great space near both beaches and some nice restaurants. Would love to be back sometime.

Some units in the guest house have private entrance and are fitted with desk and wardrobe. Each unit includes a private bathroom, while certain rooms are equipped with a terrace and others also boast a sea view. At the guest house, certain units are equipped with a kettle and fruits. Great location, right by the beach! The beach is great for a swim and less than a 5min walk to Turtle point where you can snorkel and see fish and turtles! Great and varied breakfast with a view. The room is beautifully designed and was kept spotlessly clean throughout our stay!

The guest house will provide guests with air-conditioned units with a desk, a kettle, a fridge, a safety deposit box, a flat-screen TV and a private bathroom with a walk-in shower. All units have private entrance. At the guest house, each unit includes bed linen and towels. We stayed here for 3 nights off-season and we really happy that we booked this hotel. Because it’s one of the few places that we really enjoyed in Weligam in May. Nice location , clean rooms and polite staff. Special thanks to owners Mr. and Mrs. Dias, they were very nice to us.

Located within 200 metres of Mirissa Beach and 34 km of Galle International Cricket Stadium, The Wave's Guest House provides rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Mirissa. There is an on-site restaurant and free private parking. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available. We really enjoyed our stay at this small and cozy family hotel. The owners are incredibly warm and helpful people. The owner also has a tuk-tuk and took us wherever we wanted to go. He was always there to assist us and even arranged a wonderful lake tour for us, which was truly unforgettable. The breakfast was delicious and generous, with plenty of fresh fruits. If I visit Mirissa again, I will definitely stay here.
