Nothing.

Very Clean and comfortable Apartments, the price is really good for what you get. Quiet place in nature, not on the main road. Indika was the best host we could imagine, he helped us in any belongings and was so incredibly kind. We really like him and his family and we hopefully come back one time!

A bit too far to walk to town and beach. BUT, the tuk tuks are available at such a low price. And we just loved the family so we didnt care. Looking forward to see them again.

The family was AMAZING. So kind and so sweet. The dad, Indika, was such a good man. His wife is too sweet. They have a TUK TUK. They have alll types of trees in the yard. Monkeys come. Sweet place. The home.is beautiful. They also cook food. Upstairs rooms are larger with balconey. They took us to Galle. On way, Indika took us to many spots of beauty. And we also entered the Turtle Hospital( 2000 Rupees ) for a good cause. Well worth it.

Nothing at all - it was perfect!

We loved our stay! This was our last stop on our travels on Sri Lanka, and we could not have been happier with this place to end our amazing trip. - 10 minute walk to beach, and less to local restaurants and other businesses - peaceful, quiet area with beautiful garden & setting - 10/10 breakfast - so fresh and large portions - separate kitchen available - we availed of the offer for laundry (super helpful & quick!) - huge balcony (great for relaxing & you can chill and watch the monkeys!) - the bedroom was very large & spacious. Air conditioning + a fan. Comfy, large bed with mosquito net. - great hot shower available - incredible value for money - the host, Indika was very kind and helpful. It was lovely to meet this family! We also loved the dog, Siba! Indika shared helpful knowledge, and went above and beyond for anything we needed. We would loved to have stayed longer & would highly recommend to anyone!

The accommodation was located in a quiet and green area, but still a short walk from the centre and the beach. We also had a kitchenette and fridge, which is very handy in the heat. The room was clean and spacious we had both air conditioning and a fan. The host was very helpful and friendly. We took advantage of the laundry facilities and also ordered a delicious dinner and breakfast which was prepared by the hosts and it was very tasty indeed. :) We are glad we chose this accommodation option, we would do so again.

Very comfortable room and great location, easy to access the beach with a short walk. Indika and his family really took care of me during my stay and I would highly recommend staying here.

Indika and his family were such wonderful hosts. I booked for a week and ended up staying a whole month because I loved the place so much and was hosted by such lovely people. The property was located in the quieter area away from the busy area of Mirissa and Mirissa Beach but just a 15 minute walk or a few minutes by tuk tuk. It was easy to spend time on the beach while staying here. I stayed in two different apartments and they were both nice. I loved feeling like I was connected to nature while I stayed there. Indika gave me a nice tour of the garden. I could enjoy my daily yoga on property as well. Sometimes there were monkeys in the trees of the areas which was nice to see. The property's facilities were comfortable. I also ate many of my meals there and Manjula is such a great cook. I spent Sinhala New Years with the family and it was so lovely learning about their traditions and learning to cook some of their foods with them. I can't express how grateful I am to the family for their warmth and kindness during my stay. This has certainly been one of my best homestay experiences. I would happily stay with them again and look forward to returning with family and friends. I highly recommend Green Pepper Villa!

Great and friendly owner and family, large and very clean room and good authentic breakfast. Everything perfect. Location in the green nature but not too far away to walk to the beach.

Spacious and clean rooms with a welcoming host. The property is set in beautiful surroundings with fruit trees and animals, creating a peaceful atmosphere. It’s just a 12-minute walk to the beach and close to restaurants and the main area. Warm water available, but the WiFi could be improved.

This was by far the BEST stay I had in Sri Lanka, my hosts were so kind, gracious and welcoming and made me feel at home immediately. My room had all the necessities and the bathroom was spotless. Indika and his family went out of their way to assist me (massage and taxi booking) and Indika took me around on his Tuk tuk upon request. I absolutely loved the delicious BBQ grilled fish they served me for dinner and would recommend. I was spoilt with coconuts and lucky enough to receive a tour of their beautiful garden filled with an abundance of fruit and vegetables. Mirissa beach and several other local amenities are a short walk away. If you are looking for a hospitable environment on the south coast of the island, this is the place to be. Thank you to Indika and his family (and their friendly dog Shiba) for making the final days of my trip so memorable and wholesome.

This place was amazing! A hidden gem in the nature, but still close to the mainroad. The couple that owned the place was so kind and welcoming, and our room was very clean.

Out of the 18 properties we stayed in during our 2 months stay in Sri Lanka this was by far the best. We booked 4 nights initially and ended up staying 8. The rooms were spotlessly clean, very spacious and exactly as shown in the pictures. The communal kitchen was very well equipped with everything and a good sized fridge. The balcony was huge and a great place to sit out in the evening and play games. The whole place was very light and airy. The hosts were super friendly and provided good information on places to visit. We ate the homemade vegetarian soup two nights running, which was delicious and our friends had barbecued fish. The pictures are accurate.

Quite a few mosquito in the room already inside the mosquito net when we arrived . Lots of mosquito outside so we didn't sit on the terrace at night.

Lovely friendly couple run the homestay and let us store luggage as we were early. Nice big clean room and bathroom, very modern and big area outside to sit. Use of shared kitchen was handy. The monkeys will come visit you and steal your food if not careful 🙊😂

I liked everything ☺️

I LOVED my stay at Green Pepper! It is a beautiful property, built to very high standards, huge rooms, lovely terrace, excellent kitchen, surrounded by the jungle but only a 10 minute walk to the main road with beach access. Indika and his family are wonderful hosts, including Seeba the cute dog, who will tell you when the monkeys are approaching so you can come to the terrace to see them. I truly recommend this wonderful property and kind hosts to anyone!

The Wifi drops sometimes after 20.00. Make sure that you have some data on your phone if you work online.

This was one of my favorite places during my 1 month trip in Sri Lanka. It is surrounded by the jungle and you can see beautiful colorful birds. The owners are so lovely people and always have a big smile at their face. They are very kind and helpful. They offer an amazing breakfast that you should definitely order. Plus check out the papaya juice as they use fruits from their garden. There is also a lovely dog called Simba that I loved spending time with. The room was very spacious and clean. There is a shared kitchen that makes the difference when you travel long term. Thank you so much for everything!

Indika and his family are wonderful hosts. They can't do enough to ensure you have a pleasant, comfortable stay. The villa is new and modern. The whole top floor is devoted to two rooms, shared kitchen and terrace. The terrace is gorgeously decorated and surrounded by rainforest and birds. If you're lucky, Indika will take you on a tour of all the fruits and herbs in the garden - ranging from bananas, to pepper, to pineapples, to chillis. And if you like dogs, you'll also get to meet Simba who is super cute. The villa is about 12 minutes from the high street so it is nice and quiet. I liked the fact they could organise services easily - from moped, to laundry, to tuk tuk (driven by Indika). 10 out of 10.

We stayed in many places in Sri Lanka, but this one quickly became our favorite. The property is newly built and exceptionally clean. The room is spacious with a beautiful view through the window. Located on the second floor, it features a veranda offering stunning views of the garden and jungle while maintaining a sense of privacy. This view was a highlight of our stay, as we often spotted various animals and birds. The room includes a desk, and the Wi-Fi is reliable, making it a great spot for remote work. There is a clean, fully equipped shared kitchen available, so you can drink tea or eat meals to enjoy while taking in the jungle view. The location is within walking distance of the town center, but you can also rent a scooter from the owner at a very reasonable price. Highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a peaceful and comfortable stay!

The room is super spacious and the terrace wonderfully located between mango, cashew, avocado and lychee trees. It feels like being in the jungle and we were lucky enough to see monkeys playing in the trees while having breakfast. Everything is super new and clean and you can rent a scooter for a very reasonable price. Don't miss out on trying the homemade breakfast, lunch or dinner, it was the best Sri Lankan food we had. The host mum even taught us the craft of preparing Sri Lankan String Hoppers in a personal cooking class. We loved it! Having said all of that, what really made our stay the most memorable was Indika, Manjul and their wonderful family (including their dog Ciba). After staying with them for one week, we felt like home and didn't want to leave. We hope to come back!

Wonderful place to stay. You have the whole upstairs of the villa. That includes huge terrace with the table that could work as a dining table or as an excellent working space, equipped new kitchen, and your own spacious room. Family members living downstairs are adorable and helpful. I enjoy petting their dog Simba. The place is located in quite hidden but very easily accessible street, giving you comfort of quiet local family living and at the same time being 2 min scooter drive from main Mirissa street. Quiet, safe, private and close to main facilities. Good value for money, bed was very comfortable, terrace is perfect for morning yoga overlooking exotic birds at nearby trees.

it is new and clean, on a quiet street near the jungle and still walking distance to the beach and shops. it has a big terrace surrounded by greenery. the room doesn’t get too hot during the day and has a nice breeze through the windows. i felt safe staying with this famile and they were always on top of cleaning and helping. the father is also tuk tuk driver, so he can take you places which is very convenient.
