We had an amazing stay at Coastline Mirissa. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed by Kaushi and another friendly receptionist, making us feel right at home. When the other staff were busy, Kaushi herself, along with another staff member, kindly brought our luggage to the room — such a thoughtful gesture. Chaminda, the manager, went above and beyond to make sure we were super comfortable throughout our stay. The owner was so down to earth, even working alongside the staff, which truly impressed us. The room was nice, the atmosphere was relaxing, and the ambience was stunning. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Mirissa! Thank you Guys

Stayed with our family for a few nights to visit Mirissa. The room was spacious and had everything we needed. The location was great — close enough to walk to the main strip where there are some good restaurants. We had breakfast at the property, which was lovely. There’s also a great rotti shop and Milky Wave café nearby. We would stay here again when visiting. The staff were friendly and accommodating throughout our stay.

We had the most memorable 3-night stay at La Playa - a place that felt like we were in actual heaven every single day. La Playa is truly the all-round winner of hotels and beach clubs in Hiriketiya and I was very very happy we chose this for our stay. The rooms were incredible and oversaw the most idyllic beach, with crashing waves putting you to sleep every night. The whole place is designed to aesthetic perfection. Coffee is very important to me and the iced lattes as well as the in-room coffee was simply perfect. Their fresh juices tasted like sunshine and they also offered fresh king coconut for $1! We also enjoyed their wine list which featured some great wines from Australia and Europe. The service was 5* - laid back environment but quick and helpful. The staff was all great but big big thank you to Laksha who made our stay so special and took such great care of us during our stay. 🌊🫶🏻🐚🧉

    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.

    Matara, was a good place for me.I stayed at La Polena,for 12 nights.The breakfast was excellent and the lady that made it changed the sheets and cleaned my room twice.I do think that they could give visitors a bottle of water daily.Also a jug to make a cup of tea in each room.Very little money is spend on maintaining the place.Also a sign with numbers for hiring Tuk-Tuk drivers would help.The manager is nice ,but a little slow in offering advice. Island rsetuarant past the Doctors had teh best food.I also needed more veg.So bought carrots,tomatoes and cucumber for myself.Also egg,roll in town. Restaurants at the beach are a rip off.10% added for tax.This is nonsense.Tuk driver from the Railway station to hotel.600 rup The one Hotel to Trainstation 800 the train from Matara.4 -5 hours 600rph.?

    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.

    I spent one night at a Coastal Villa in Mirissa, and it was one of my best experiences in Sri Lanka. The villa is situated in a calm and quiet area, yet it is within walking distance to both the town and the beach. The rooms are spacious, and the beds were clean and comfortable. The air conditioner functioned well during the extremely hot weather, and the staff were very helpful. Initially, we did not book the room with a meal included, but the staff were accommodating and provided a variety of delicious Sri Lankan dishes on short notice. I decided to extend my stay, and the villa staff easily fulfilled my request. I recommend Coastal Villa to anyone seeking a place to stay in Mirissa.

    We were there 4 nights during off season. There is not much to do there in July. Especially with kids. Since the sea was to rough to swim in! Lots of wind and felt a bit like a ghost town to us. Every restaurant we went to we were the only ones! I think 2 nights would have been more than enough
