We really enjoyed our stay at Poppies. It was fairly bare bones, but everything we needed. We mostly loved the location. It was just a very quick walk to the beach. Poppies also offered a lovely breakfast with a beautiful fruit plate. They also put us in contact with a spa where we had wonderful massages.
United States of AmericaNice balcony with good view over a nice garden, close to the beach (3-4 min walking) and supermarket (300m) good room size with close wardrobe, good water pressure, good breakfast, very friendly guys. Thanks! I have to say is a good value for the money, but if you choose without AC, is will be very humid inside
United Arab EmiratesBig 4 poster bed, nice balcony with a hammock and chairs. Air con good and quiet. Breakfast ok. Nice helpful staff.
United KingdomThe staff was friendly and helpful. The location was good and in the center of Mirissa, also not to close to the busy Main Street so it was silent at night.
ChinaThe location is convenient. Away from the noisy road and there’s a 24h operating grocery store. The staff is super nice and friendly. They can book a lot of things and advice.
KazakhstanNice Little hotel hidden away from the Main Street, but still very close to all you need.
DenmarkThe location is very near the beach and shops resturants and set back from the road that is very busy. I would recommend a room on the first floor with AC and a balcony. The manager Visal was very helpful and keen to ensure that our stay was comfortable and also help arranging transport at reasonable rates.
United KingdomRooms were comfortable and clean, the balcony even had a hammock. Just off the main sea road so quiet but an easy walk across the road to the beach.
United KingdomNice quiet, because it is not on the mainroad. We loved the yard/garden. Walking distance to Beach, restaurants, harbour, shops and everything.
DenmarkThis area is very accessible for whale watching tours and diving facilities so we were able to get around to the main attractions easily. Further it is near the beach but not on the beach so you can have fun and have a drink and return to a relatively quite location to sleep.
