Eco Garden Hiriketiya

The hosts at Eco Garden are some of the warmest, most genuine people we've met on our Sri Lankan travels. From welcome drinks to delicious feasts for breakfast, we felt very looked after. Our room was clean, beds comfy, and whilst it didn't have a fridge in the room we were able to use the main one in the kitchen for cold drinks etc. We overlooked that the bathroom was shared when we booked, but actually this wasn't a problem at all, with only one other room to share with, which wasn't occupied for one of the nights we stayed anyhow. Hiriketiya is a gem, and the property is just a few short minutes to the beach, restaurants etc. The views of nature from the property are beautiful, and the local monkeys kept our children entertained too!

The only negative I'd mention is the ants in the bathroom; it's not a major thing, and having lived in hot countries appreciate that insects inside are part and parcel, but there were many! The property is also up quite a steep, uneven drive; this wasn't a problem for us - it certainly got our leg muscles working, but worth noting for anyone less mobile.

the hostel and breakfest was absolutly amazing. it is close to the Surf beach - 3 minut by walk ! Friendly place with a lot of smile ..

Great location, very nice and kind host, breakfast was very extensive and nice. Would definitely recommend!

No musquito net and little ants on the walls

Beautiful little guesthouse run by an amazingly welcoming family. Great location and an amazing breakfast included!

The fresh air in the private garden, open space house, clean and excellent hospitality and traditional breakfast.

nothing to declare

The host, location and breakfast were all amazing!

There is no phone signal in the property and the WiFi didn’t work (not a huge issue though and seems)

huge, beautiful property, spotlessly clean. Host super welcoming and friendly and the best breakfast ever!

nothing

What a gem in Hiriketiya! A true homestay. The rooms were spacious, clean and quiet, and we loved feeling like a part of the family. The host was so friendly and saw to our every need, and the breakfast was INCREDIBLE! The location is also perfect - a five minute walk to the beach but away from the main road and with the garden you feel like you are in then jungle.

It is beyond peaceful here!! Tucked away from the main road, with only bird song to be heard but still only walking distance from the beach, restaurants and yoga studios.The family are so warm and welcoming, plus the breakfast is amazing!!! The room was clean and comfortable. I would highly recommend staying here :)

Nothing - everything was perfect!
