Guest Reviews
- Şerif (6/5): According to price it was ok - İt was close to centre and beach İt was need to renovation
- Vivien (10/5): - The room was really clean and comfortable. The hosts were really nice and welcoming
- Tristan (9/5): -
- Rameshwar (10/5): Exceptional - The Property was good
- Mohamed (9/5): Superb - Property charged me Rs. 400 more than the value shown on booking.com
- Ali (5/5): Clean rooms, but a noisy environment and unexpected price difference made it an uncomfortable stay. - The rooms were clean and the air conditioning provided comfort. However, although I booked the room for $36 via Booking, I was charged $40 in cash at the property. Additionally, a broken sound system plays loud Buddhist chants 24/7 inside the property, making it nearly impossible to rest or sleep. Not ideal for travelers seeking peace and quiet.
- Md (8/5): Very good -
- Petar (10/5): Exceptional - I'll never forget Ranya's fruit salad, the warmth and the hospitality! Lovely stay, highly recommend and much appreciated! Kind regards, Geri
- Maksim (10/5): All is good - Nice location and very friendly hosts
- Aisling (10/5): Great place to stay! - Such a lovely place to stay in Mirissa, less than 5 minutes walk to the beach and very close to some nice restaurants and the main street with shops, bars, restaurants etc. but far enough away that it is very peaceful and quiet.
I booked a room with Aircon and the room was very spacious, comfortable bed with clean sheets and good mosquito net. The room and bathroom were both very clean and the shower was hot! You can order food to eat there and there is also a small shop in the front garden for buying drinks and snacks which is very convenient.
A very enjoyable stay here, good value for money, the host is lovely and very kind and I would recommend it to anyone staying in Mirissa 😊
- Pawan (1/5): Bad - The lady here took more money from us and there is a rule to leave the slippers outside. When we checked out, my slippers were missing and when I asked about it, the staff spoke in a rude manner.i will never go there
- Mohammed (10/5): Surrounded by nature and close to the beach - We reserved the room only a couple minutes ahead cuz of the mixup in another place. The hostess was really welcoming and we got a beautiful room.
Almost every day we saw a peacock on the neighbour house roof. Sometimes there were also monkeys.
There were beautiful nature sounds and it made it super relaxing to stay there.
In the enterance they also have a koi pond with beautiful details of ducks and such.
There also a tiny store downstairs. Super convenient.
Overall perfect place and would go again Everything was perfect
- Fateme (10/5): Exceptional - I liked everything about this place. The room was big and clean. it was about 30 minutes walk to secret beach.
- Mohammed (10/5): Exceptional -
- Hone (10/5): Nice people. - Very nice people, they agreed to look after my bag for me while I travelled around Sri Lanka!
- Vikas (10/5): Stay in Mirissa - The stay was very comfortable, ended up extending the stay by 1 day. The host family is very hospitable and helpful. Walkable distance from Mirissa beach. Throughly enjoyed the stay, will definitely return when next time in Mirissa.
- Vikas (10/5): Very comfortable stay - The location of the property is walkabke distance from the beach. The rooms are spacious and very clean. The host family is very friendly and helpful. Really tasty breakfast, lunch/dinner is availabe on request.
- Silviu (8/5): Very good - House is nice, room is ok. The ceiling fan was driving us crazy, was oscillating making a bad noise, hard to sleep with it. But turning it off would not be an option because of the humidity and temperature.
Air-conditioning had also some problems with the display.
- Tiina (10/5): Exceptional -
- Isac (8/5): Very good - Near the beach Bathroom facilities
- Ольга (10/5): Exceptional - A wonderful place, wonderful mistress.
The price, place is location, the ability to order breakfast, lunch or dinner at a good price.
I lived in three places in Mirissa at about the same prices and this guest house left the best impressions!
There are air conditioning, numbers with and without a balcony, I lived in two versions.
If I am still in these parts, I will definitely return to this guest house!
- Thomas (1/5): Bad - There wouldn't be enough space here to list everything that's bad about this accommodation. But by far the worst is the terrible hostess, who ruined our entire stay.
- Alixandra (8/5): Comfy beds, good location - Very comfortable beds, large rooms. We had breakfast one morning and it took a while but was very tasty! Also very handy that they have a little shop at the end of the driveway . Perfect for water purchases and the ice cream treat. They offered a laundry service
They charge more than anywhere else , it took two days to get back and it came back smelling of mould. So I wouldn’t bother with that.
- Ruth (10/5): Exceptional - I recently had the pleasure of staying here and it was an unforgettable experience! From the moment I arrived, I was welcomed with warm hospitality and felt right at home.
The room was clean, cozy, and beautifully decorated, making it the perfect place to relax after a day of exploring. The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful. The location was walking distance from Mirissa beach and many restaurants nearby.
- Kateryna (10/5): Clean, cozy and quite - If I ever travel to Mirissa again, I will definitely book this place. It’s what you need to relax and a enjoy quite area. The location is super comfortable. Close to the beach, with all the restaurants and cafes around. Nothing
- Monideepa (2/5): Very poor - I had a disappointing experience at this guest house due to multiple issues that made my stay frustrating.
First, the **room service policy** was unreasonable. I was told that rooms are cleaned **only once every five days**. Basic hygiene and upkeep should not be such a struggle for guests.
Second, **payment hassles** were unnecessary and unprofessional. The management **agreed to accept dollars**, but upon receiving $10 & 20 bills, they suddenly **changed their stance**, saying only $100 bills would do or that I should **exchange it for Sri Lankan Rupees**. This wasted **45 minutes of my time** just trying to find a currency exchange, which could have been avoided with proper clarity upfront.
The experience felt like a **bait-and-switch**, where what was **promised did not match what was delivered**. It was frustrating to deal with inconsistent information and inconvenient policies.
The **only saving grace** was the **fresh food**, which was probably the only thing done right. However, given the overall experience, I would not recommend staying here unless these issues are addressed.

- Shreya (8/5): Very good - The couple hosting were very friendly and responded to my queries immediately. Budget friendly and close to Mirissa Beach
- James (10/5): Exceptional - The room was very spacious with air conditioning, Bathroom was good too with hot water system. All our requests were adhered too. Good staff and good food portions too! -
- Emma (10/5): Friendly local family run - Friendly, local family run this guest house. Great location near beach and shops/eateries. The food they offer here is also very tasty & reasonably priced.
- Varun (9/5): Best budget yet clean n comfortable stay. - Best possible clean rooms for the price 3700/-.
- Pei (10/5): Exceptional - Thanks to the enthusiastic hostess
- Sally (7/5): Some good and some not so good points - Comfortable bed, Aircon, breakfasts
Handy shop, run by cheerful husband, at the entrance to the garden. Power sockets - only one UK style socket dangerously-placed in the bathroom! Other types of socket, unusable, behind bed head which was too heavy to move.
We would have appreciated a larger/extra shelf in the bathroom.
For us (70 years old, but fit and strong), too far to comfortably walk twice a day to/from beaches/restaurants in the heat.
- Muhammad (10/5): Exceptional - The place is very close to the beach. My room was very clean and well furnished, even the washroom was well modernised, considering I probably booked the cheapest room in town. I am also very impressed by the positive and kind attitude of the family running it, I was treated very well, which was beyond expectation.
- Mikalai (10/5): Exceptional - Great place to stay in Mirissa. It has great price-to-value relation.
Room was clean and nice.
This place has a small restaurant and a shop.
The food is not the best but still OK.
- Railia (10/5): Exceptional - Very good guesthouse! Everything is clean, the room has everything you need, there is AC and a fan, even a mirror, plenty of space to hang things. The toilet, like in a good hotel, is clean, in general the bathroom is very good, clean. There is hot water, but only a solar system. The common areas are also very beautiful, very well maintained, plenty of space to sit. They have a cafe right there, the hostess cooks different dishes. They also have a shop where they sell everything you need, snacks, buns, water, ice cream. The guesthouse is reasonably priced. Located close to the beach and the center. There are many cafes along the street. There is a pond nearby, trees grow, peacocks, monkeys and many different birds. I think that such a ratio of price, quality, amenities, beauty and location is difficult to find in Sri Lanka. I highly recommend! Nothing
- Amr (1/5): Bad - I haven’t stayed there! upon arrival they said they are overbooked and they cannot accommodate me because a guest extended the reservation.
- Stuart (9/5): Quiet place to stay - The husband and wife that own the property were very caring and were very helpful in explaining about any questions I asked about
Room was very clean with good air conditioner nice small sitting area out side my front door views not great from my room but that didn’t bother me!
Plenty of tuk tuks driving up and down the road that you can catch for a lift cost 300 to go to the end of road and the same to go to beach
Would highly recommended staying here The only thing the bathroom towel had a hole and was a bit thin, needs replacing but was clean
- Matej (10/5): Exceptional - Really nice place
Great location
Super clean
Great host
Very good value
- Lili (5/5): Passable - It was clean and the location was good The host's behavior of cancelling my booking at first and trying to sell me tours or stuffs bothered me. the internet needed to be recharged and it took like two hours for her to do it. The most important thing is that in Google map you find this property with another name which was confusing and i asked her before going in booking and she didn't reply me so I went there by comparing t the pictures of google map and booking.
- Nadira (8/5): Very good -
- William (10/5): Exceptional - The most beautiful and accomodating host.
Amazing location and a beautiful house.
100% will be staying here if I visit Marissa again
- Jiřina (10/5): Exceptional - The best accommodation we had, very nice and friendly home, clean and beautiful room. A quiet and peaceful place. I highly recommend this accommodation.
- George (3/5): Poor - Two hours before the check-in time, the hotel told me that accommodation was not available in spite of me having a confirmation one month in advance. I had to book an alternate accommodation at the last minute.
- Magdalena (10/5): Exceptional - Great hosts, amazing food. The room was big and comfy. Overall had a great time there. Totally recommend it. 👌
- Prashant (9/5): Superb -
- Emma (10/5): Beautiful stay in Mirissa with very kind friendly hosts! - We only stayed one night here but it was the perfect place to stay in Mirissa! Run by a lovely, kind family who made us feel very at home. The lady was so smiley and friendly and offered us dinner, breakfast and whale watching if we wanted it. There is a little shop right outside which is perfect for snacks. Location is also ideal, walking distance from everything. Thanks so much!!
- Malecki (10/5): Exceptional - The family in NH rest house was extremely polite and generous. Place is close to the beaches and attractions and the rooms are clean and comfortable. I recommend it to all my friends ;)
- Josefine (7/5): Good - Good location, Clean room with aircon and mosquito net, easy parking space for the TukTuk, Kiosk out front and nice food cooked by host available (dinner and breakfast).
Laundry service was great, but a bit pricy.
Accommodation was good value for price though. -24€ for two nights Bathroom started to smell heavily overnight, WiFi did not work, we had to ask for towels and toilet paper.
- Izabela (8/5): Good option for a short stay - Efficient and polite service at short notice. Location near to the harbour. WiFi didn't work (advertised free WiFi) and the shower was impossible to figure out, either running much too hot or too cold.
- Matt (10/5): Great location and kind family - Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner are available and were excellent. The price was cheaper than any other places I found, and its a very peaceful beautiful home, with separate rooms upstairs. The room with attached bathroom was even bigger than I needed. Also, there is a small store on the compound that made getting drinks and snacks super easy. Its a good location, and within walking distance to everything you need. Very helpful and kind family running the guest house. Nothing, I ended up staying more days...
