What a wonderful stay! I'd struggled to decide where to stay in Hiriketiya, as the options were numerous, but I'm so happy we stayed at Father's Place. The highlights were the breakfast, the pool, and the staff! They must have taken feedback, because the breakfast was generous and delicious! Many options, which you selected via Whatsapp the evening before. The Sri Lanka dishes and fruit juice were particularly delicious. We had a room on the 2nd floor, which had 2 outdoor spaces, including a balcony that overlooked the pool. Room was large, shower was great. Room is simple and could have benefited from a place to put suitcases or store clothes, but there were several bedside tables and towel racks that made it workable and the design was beautiful. Loved being able to sit on the balcony and watch the peacocks and monkeys. The pool was delightfully refreshing after a hot day. And the staff was very friendly and welcoming, helping us get a tuktuk to the train station and chatting with us during breakfast. Location was great, next to several great restaurants and massage places, and a very short walk to Dickwalla beach for sunset and Hiriketiya beach for lounging. Everything was taken care of at Father's Place, making a relaxing and easy comfortable for our time in Sri Lanka! Wish we could have stayed longer.

From the moment we arrived, dripping wet due to a sudden downpour, we were welcomed. Towels were brought out to dry ourselves with a welcome drink. The check in was quick, the room was amazing, as were the views. The pool was amazing, clean, sunbeds, towels and smiles. Breakfast was a help yourself buffet with a nice selection, dinners seem to be mainly a small buffet style or there is an A la Carte menu. All the staff are polite and helpful especially Rigma.

It's the perfect place to stay! 3 minutes by tuktuk or scooter to Hiriketiya, you have a vast private beach to yourself, with the most amazing sunsets and perfect double bed sunbeds on the beach with plenty of shade. Those sunbeds are so good, we almost didn't want to get up and go to gorgeous Hiriketiya to eat / surf / swim. We booked for 2 nights and eventually stayed for 6. These are the kind of places you dream about when you think about the tropics: Not too much unnecessary luxury, but still a nice clean room, with a balcony overlooking the sea, good AC, decent shower, clean sheets, right on the beach (don't forget the beach bar of course), nice staff, and all this for such a low price!!! Amazing value.

The location was amazing. Just off of the beaten path. So close to the entertainment but quite if you wanted it to be. There is a great pool and small beach right out front. If you like to surf it’s a great spot to stay. I sat right out front and watched my husband surf with a drink in my hand. Great stay!

Guest review
Our stay at the Mirissa Spice House exceeded our expectations. We were two friends traveling together, and we like a little bit of luxury now and then. Based on the photos, we weren't quite sure what to expect, but we were pleasantly surprised when we arrived. It's a quiet oasis with a beautiful back garden and pool. You get a lovely personal welcome from the owner, and you see them from time to time throughout the stay. The room was great, space for us both, and we had a lovely balcony. Breakfast was a highlight, just enough to get us ready for the day. And we couldn't hear any noise at all from the nearby busy street. No idea how, but that was a pleasant surprise. I can't imagine staying anywhere else in Mirissa. We also miss Ginger the dog!

Loved my stay here, location was perfect, centrally located to weligama, mirissa and ahangama but off the main road so no noise and walking distance to jungle beach. The hotel is brand new, super clean, modern and beautifully designed. Stayed in the sea view suite and absolutely loved. The views from the rooftop were amazing to start your day watching the sunrise, having breakfast or just relaxing with a book. Enrico the owner was amazing, super sweet, helpful and generous. Great communication always with guests and giving so many recommendations all over the weligama area for dinner, drinks, sunset etc. really made it an amazing stay. His breakfast in the morning was a great way to start the morning. Super accommodating even letting me store bags and hang out before my later departure. Highly recommend, highlight of my trip!

It delivers what it promises. Very clean room with good AC and the staff is very friendly. Even thought it’s a hidden gem with a view to the tree tops it’s still very close to the ocean, about 5m walk. It’s located at the beach with the most beautiful sunset I’ve ever seen. There are many restaurants around that accept card payment, tuck tucks available all the time near the location and it’s from a walking distance from the main beach and also some convenience store. The breakfast is very simple and decent, it offers the essentials. Fruit platter, delicious omelet, toast, sweets platter and beverages. I would definitely stay again at this place.

We had the most wonderful stay at W15 in Weligama! From the moment we arrived, everything was absolutely fantastic. The hotel has a stunning beachfront location with breathtaking views, and the atmosphere is both vibrant and relaxing. The staff went above and beyond to make sure our experience was perfect – always warm, attentive, and welcoming. Our room was stylish, comfortable, and beautifully maintained, and every detail was thoughtfully taken care of. The food and cocktails were exceptional, with plenty of variety and fresh, delicious flavors. Whether lounging by the pool, enjoying the beach, or simply soaking up the lively yet laid-back vibe, we truly had the best time. W15 exceeded all expectations – it’s a place we’ll remember fondly and can’t wait to return to!

We loved our stay at Lakraj. The location is wonderful, easy walks to restaurants and The doctor's house. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. Our first room didn't have a TV so we were easily moved to a new room with wonderful sea and pool views 😀 We hired a scooter right across the road and they organized a driver for us for a safari tour at Udawalwe safari about an hour and half drive. The hotel pool was awesome, a natural sea pool. We saw turtles swimming right outside as well. All in all a wonderful experience

Pristine beaches and clean water!

Pristine beaches and clean water! There are so many amazing restaurants and cafes in the area. I can only imagine how things are during the peak seasons! there are tuks and buses available which will get you to most places. and there is plenty to do that is a walkable distance away too! from turtle watching, snorkeling, or surfing (in season). Smoke and bitters is super closeby, as are a number of highly rated bars, cafes and restaurants.

Weligama is a surf hub with lots of trendy spots for food. There are hidden beaches and family restaurant eats too. It can be a bit hectic and it was a bit disappointing that swimming at the main beach was not appealing but we overall enjoyed the stay as a hub for accessing other beaches including coconut, jungle and Mirissa.
