    We really had a wonderful stay! The structure is amazing, quiet and so comfortable yet so close to the main street & the beach. The staff is so kind and helpful. We also enjoyed an outstanding massage in the secret root spa! we couldn’t be more happy about our stay!

    This hotel is incredible! It’s perfectly located and just stunning! I had a pool view room and the terrace was incredible. My only negative is that it’s so gorgeous that I felt bad leaving the hotel to go and see mirissa beach! Pool is wonderful and quiet, perfect for relaxing, which I’d did on my last day here whilst waiting for my Tuk Tuk!

    We stayed in many hotels in sri lanka, but price quality this one was the best. Thank you.

    Everything was simply amazing. Friendly people, not too commercial, just good hearted. We forgot something in our room, they sent it back to us. (So great!) Kitchen that you could use at any point. Great calme surrounding and very nice spa next to the guesthouse. A lot of space, good swimming pool, very central location. We loved it so much here, greatly recommended. Dont hesitate to book this!

    Beautiful room with facilities I was not expecting, for example, the kitchen. It had all kitchen tools and crockeries one could possibly need there. The patio with a kitchen was a wonderful spot to cook dinner and have a little party of your own. Also very thoughtful of the staff to leave two umbrellas in our room which we definitely needed.

    Amazing guesthouse! We didn’t realise we had booked the cabana and were blown away, everything has been considered to the last detail. Very comfortable and beautifully decorated. It also had an outdoor kitchen and sitting area, a private garden area and direct access to the spa. The pool area is very tranquil and comfortable. A short walk down a lane and you are in the centre of Marissa. We did not have breakfast included but found great places to eat nearby.
