The Surf Lodge is beautifully decorated with a lot of love and taste. It offers amazing breakfast and a direct access to the beach. It is managed by the super kind Che who was always very attentive to help us organize a few things around the area. What we particularly loved about the hotel (apart from the amazing spacious rooms and the delicious (vegetarian) food) was that it is Che’s family home and has such a friendly and calming vibe :) it’s only a short walk to local restaurants and bars and Madiha’s main beach is also only a few minutes away. Thanks for having us :)

Amazing place! The best place to relax and enjoy the nature in a little paradise. The whole area is so nice and pretty - the pool is great, the rooms are modern with anti-mosquito nets over the bed. They have their own little beach but Polhena beach was very close. They also offered complimentary bikes to go to the restaurants, beach or town. Breakfast was great! There were also super cute little puppies who turned out to be great companions during our visit.

Welcoming hosts made us feel at home from the moment we walked through the gate. The room is clean, the bed is very comfortable, with extra pillows and blankets, cold AC, and is a decent size. The bathroom is also very clean with a good shower and plenty of water pressure. It's convenient to the train station (maybe a ten minute walk) and to shopping. We had to leave very early in the morning, and the hosts were up, with tea, waiting to wish us well and off a ride to the train station. Very lovely stay!

    Very nice place and clean. It's only walking distance to the beach. Vidu and his family welcomed us with king coconuts. Beautiful place and it has a cool bedroom, balcony, bathroom, living room and a little kitchen. you can see monkeys anytime in outside. The balcony is the best place to have your meals. you can try delicious breakfast here. Very kind hosts and they always keep our privacy.

    I enjoyed my stay so much! The apartment is very spacious, it also has a private balcony with a nice view to the jungle full of monkeys, squirrels and birds. Vinu's Place is little bit remote from the busiest part of the town - I was surprised at the beginning, but then it made our stay even better. The hosting family is extremely hospitable and caring. Highly recommended!

    Wonderful family hosts so helpful and friendly. Location was away from the busy streets with views over gardens not other buildings. There are only two rooms here, upstairs is spacious with lounge area, kitchen and balcony. Downstairs is smaller and has a patio with small kitchen and breakfast bar, both rooms with fans which is adequate. Dinner and breakfast were both high quality local food.

    Fantastic place to stay, beautiful, spacious and clean rooms. Delicious breakfast on a beautiful terrace with green and flowery surroundings. Perfect location, out of all busyness.If you like to hike, you can walk from Coconut Tree Hill, which is just a few min away, to Mirissa beach, it will take you around 25 min, we did it every morning and evening, with a pleasure, otherwise take a tuk tuk. Big compliments to the host family, very sweet and helpful people, all the best for them.

    We loved everything about our stay. We had the upper room with a balcony, it was spacious and very comfortable! The access to the kitchen and the fridge was super handy but the breakfast prepared by the owner was a real gem! Delicious, huge portions and everyday something different so no boredom! The monkeys on the tees doing a performance every morning was something we didn’t experienced anywhere else. It’s like living in the jungle but still 10 walk to the beach. Totally recommend!

    Super nice family, spacious and clean apartment, the highlight is the bedroom with it's big cozy bed - we had a very good night sleep! We also enjoyed sitting on the balcony during the day and at night and got an awesome and very filling breakfast in the mornings - it was different every day during our 4-day stay (we extended!) Location is a bit up the hill tucked away from the more busy Hiriketya streets. Watch out for the banana thieves! 🐒
