    Sadly we arrived at a time they were make some refurbishment so it was very loud with construction everyday

    The staff were amazing, the hotel is set at the end of a busy stretch of beach bars overlooking the sea The food is incredible and the breakfast was outstanding

    and be prepared when you reach the property, the property name is also different called Solt Mirissa

    This is a guest house! The property is clean, and the staff were friendly and helpful throughout the stay. Both dinner and breakfast were absolutely delicious. Their à la carte menu offers a great variety of options, and the prices for dinner were very reasonable considering the quality of the food. The location is great, right at the beach However, what was really inappropriate is the way the property is advertised online. The photos posted in the ad are misleading and don’t accurately reflect the reality of the place. More honest and detailed images would help set better expectations for future guests. Overall, it's a good place to stay if you’re looking for good food, a clean environment, and a prime beachside location — just be prepared for a property that may not exactly match its promotional pictures.

    Small things. TV didn’t work but I guess no one comes to Mirissa to watch tv :). Bathroom could have had space for toiletries. Again a small thing.

    Right on the beach. Great staff. Great food at the restaurant. Spacious and clean room. Easy access to stores, coffee shops and atms.

    It’s not something they can do anything about, but we were woken up from outside noise every morning around 6 am.

    Nice location, right at the beach. The breakfast was also very good. The beds are comfortable.

    Nothing in particular that springs to mind. Everything was very easy and smooth during our stay. Great communication too.

    We stayed here for our honeymoon and they made our room beautiful for us. It is super clean, lovely and spacious and you couldn't have a better location right on the beach. Restaurant and drinks prices are about what you'd expect for the places along the beachfront. Everyone was very friendly and helpful as well.

    Room decor is a bit tired and in need of redecoration, linens and towels probably due replacement. As per other reviews, the area is lively at night so light sleepers would benefit from earplugs (we knew this before anyway) but it's the trade off for being right on the beautiful beach.

    Location cannot be beaten. Staff were friendly and welcoming. Food was well presented and reasonable price compared to other beachfront properties, with a wide choice. Beds were comfortable and well air-conditioned.

    The showers were cold. The bathroom smelt. There is no view. The patio area didn’t feel like a nice place to sit out.

    The location next to the beach is definitely the selling point of these rooms. The staff and food at the restaurant were nice.

    The restaurant staff were not at all attentive and their service was very poor... They even forgot to serve our breakfast properly... No bread and butter, no fruit plate or juice... Said they were busy and forgot about it...

    The food was very good and the front office staff were very kind... Rooms were good and very clean.

    Had to ask twice to get room cleaned on our first day. The bamboo blind on the front terrace was covered in black mould.

    Beachfront location, fantastic restaurant for breakfast , lunch and dinner. Plenty of beach lounges. Great location for walking along the beach and along the street to the shops.

    Serviced room earlier in the day, when requested (hotel only apx. 10 rooms on total).

    Amazing location. On, not at, the beach. Cabanas at night on sand replaced with dining tables. Very large serving & delicious breakfast. Room spacious & very clean. Had to give room staff a nudge to service, often still not done by mid a’noon.

    The resort needs some maintance and soe general work on the buildings and rooms, but nothing too major.

    I really enjoyed the fact that the resort/restaurant was on the beach. We were able to use the facilities and also be close to our rooms.

    Overpriced, we were Last Night on a five Star and Food was cheaper, but this is a Problem in all mirissa. The Room Need an urgent Renovation to remove all the mold that cause very Bad smell. No sea view in any room and the ones on the first floor have windows to a Garden corridor where all the people walk in, so no privacy and dark room cause you have to keep curtains closed. This Problem could only be fixed with the reubication of rooms. But the mold Problem and Bad smell in bathrooms is Not acceptable for the Price.

    Rooms were clean, beds were confortable, the staff was really Kind, nice restaurant, right in the beach, breakfast was amazing. Really really Kind staff always looking for you to be comfortable.
