I stayed at Costel Mirrisa twice and both experiences were absolutely wonderful. The place is extremely clean and well-maintained, and the staff are incredibly kind, friendly, and welcoming. What truly made my stay special was their hospitality — one morning they even brought me a homemade local breakfast from their own home, which was such a thoughtful gesture. They also gave me a handmade keychain as a gift, which I truly appreciated. I highly recommend this place if you're looking for a cozy, clean stay with warm and genuine hosts!

This place is awesome! I've stayed in 3-4 hostels across Sri Lanka, and this one stood out as the most pleasant. Located right next to the beach, the vibe is incredible. The staff are extremely friendly, welcoming, and responsive—they went out of their way to suggest some happening spots I would’ve missed otherwise. The property is new and has great potential to become even better as it grows. I highly recommend staying here for a relaxing and memorable experience. Cheers!

Looking for a hostel?

Budget travelers know there's no better way to make the most of their trip than by staying at a hostel: Save money for exploring during the day, and swap stories with fellow backpackers in the shared kitchen or bar in the evening. Dorm-style bedrooms with shared bathrooms are standard hostel fare, but private rooms are also available for those willing to pay a little more.
