Everything has been amazing we truly enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The place is beautiful and the service was excellent. Just one thing to keep in mind: the floors can get very slippery when wet, so it’s important to be careful.

The name says it all - it is a few charming wooden houses by the river and waterfalls. Absolutely stunning, secluded location for those looking for eco experience far away from civilization! The host will help you organize all your trips around Sinharaja at a very good price. I couldn’t recommend this place more - you need to check it with your own eyes!

We recently had the pleasure of staying at Lakraj Heritage Hotel in Matara, Sri Lanka, and it exceeded all our expectations. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by the friendly staff, who made us feel right at home. The highlight of our stay was definitely the natural beach pool, which offered breathtaking views and a serene atmosphere. It was the perfect spot to unwind and enjoy the sea breeze while sipping on refreshing drinks from the poolside bar. The food at the hotel's restaurant was exceptional. We tried a variety of dishes, each bursting with flavor and made from fresh, locally sourced ingredients. The chefs truly outdid themselves, and we looked forward to every meal. Furthermore, we found the value for money to be excellent. Considering the luxurious amenities, impeccable service, and stunning location, the price we paid felt like a steal. Overall, our experience at Lakraj Heritage Hotel was nothing short of amazing. We highly recommend it to anyone looking for a memorable stay in Matara.

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!

My favorite spot was definitely the beachfront area right in front of Paradise Beach Club – calm waves, golden sand, and perfect sunsets. I also loved Coconut Hill, just a short walk away, with its panoramic view of the ocean and palm trees. Where I Ate- Most of my meals were at the Paradise Beach Club restaurant, which offered delicious Sri Lankan curries, fresh seafood, and good international choices. For variety, Mirissa has some great little cafés and beach shacks nearby – I especially liked the fresh juices and seafood BBQs along the beach. Mum's Kitchen, Big Belly & All you can eat were equally good. Mirissa is very easy to get around. Most places are within walking distance if you’re staying near the beach. For slightly farther spots like Weligama or Galle, tuk-tuks are everywhere and quite affordable. we booked our car for the entire trip. things to do- Whale watching tours Sunset at Coconut Hill Beach hopping Surfing

Matara isn't a big town so it is relatively quick to get from A to B. The beach is beautiful. But there aren't that many restaurants in in the town. The Matara Rest House near the fort had good food and drinks and is one of the most worth it dining options nearby. Lemon is also a good option. There are restaurants closer to the touristy spots but those are on the pricier side. snorkeling with turtles is popular in Matara.

Talalla beach is clean and not crowded like many on the South coast of Sri Lanka. Relax all day under the sun and take a dip in to the warm waters of the Indian Ocean. Not really a surfing beach but the right hand end in front of Talalla Retreat is safe for swimming. Friendly locals and a small supermarket nearby. Ate at all the local restaurants - they were all excellent, especially Manju Cinnamon Hut.

Mirissa is a popular tourist destination, and one where...

Mirissa is a popular tourist destination, and one where tourism income trumps everything else - usually at the expense of the environment. So, if you’re looking for an idyllic escape to a pristine, tropical paradise, you’ll need to lower your expectations quite a bit. Unfortunately, the businesses lining the beachfront have been allowed to attempt to artificially hold back the sea, by building awful sea walls, sandbagging, etc. This has resulted in far less beach than there would naturally be. The other inescapable truth is that it’s quite polluted - mainly with discarded plastics (bottles, drinking straws, bags, etc.) and other rubbish. It really is heartbreaking to see, and it’s everywhere. Picking up a few bags of it everyday on my walks didn’t even make a dent! (This problem isn’t limited to Mirissa, by the way. It’s everywhere in Sri Lanka. Substantial regulatory change and investment in education are needed - now!) As a visitor, do your part and at least set a good example by not discarding your rubbish. On the plus side, the people are very friendly and welcoming, and there are quite a few great places to eat and enjoy a cold drink. I found the better restaurants on the main road rather than the beach. There are also plenty of lovely, small, family-run restaurants throughout the back streets that are worth seeking out.
