Guest Reviews
- Alwin (9/5): Good value for money with an exceptional host. - The place is a nice mix of private rooms and dormitories. Great to meet other people and still have some privacy.
By far the most comfortable bed I had in three weeks travelling through Sri Lanka. Spacious and clean bathroom. A place to hang close in the room, mosquito net over the bed and free drinking water. The airconditioning wasn't fantastic, but it did the job.
Host Oscar is an absolute gem. Somewhat forgetful at times, but a heart of gold and eager to please. You might have to temper his persuasive character a bit sometimes. But he is willing to provide nothing less than the best for you, knows exactly what fair prices are for all the things you might want and helps you to get those.
A bit further away from the busy area, but that makes it relatively quiet and it's only a small walk to many different beaches. Lovely family-run restaurants just around the corner.
Highly recommend! Breakfast is not available by default. But if you ask Oscar kindly, he will probably help.you out. Also the amount of flies and mosquitos when sitting on the porch.

- Clara (10/5): Top ! - Personnel plus que charmant et aux petits soins. Ils proposent extras comme laverie ou pour les activités. Super bon petit déjeuner. Chambre très correct, lit confortable, propreté rien à dire. Nous avons apprécier passé deux nuits dans cet établissement. Localisation pratique. Isolement fenêtre peut être un peu juste

- Tine Meidahl (10/5): Great stay with nice breakfast - I had a really great time at Costello Mirissa. I got upgraded to a double room due to some issues in the dorm room. Breakfast was good. I had nice conversations with Oscar and he recommended the secret beach.

- Lucie (9/5): - Clean room, comfortable bed.
Walkable distance to beach, big grocery shop cca 800m. Calm area. Good breakfast.
Laundry service 600lkr per kilo till the other day.
Good value for money, would recommend.
The owners helped us to get a tuktuk Noisy AC
Its harder to get a tuktuk via Pick me in this area, but the owners will help.

- Anna (9/5): Estuvimos cómodos y a gusto en el Costels Mirissa. - Alojamiento confortable, cerca de los servicios y restaurantes. Personal muy atento y amable. El desayuno es diferente al de la foto.
- Guest (10/5): - Muy buena ubicacion, cerca de la playa y restaurantes. El dueño es super agradable y atento. Recomendadisimo
- laura (8/5): - Desayuno y personal amable Un poquito lejos del la calle principal pero muy cerca a secret beach
- Dayle (10/5): - My friend and I loved our stay here so much so that we extended for an extra 4 nights. It is a super comfortable and homely space. The breakfast is amazing and it differs day to day which is as great. The staff were AMAZING - we spent time over meals getting to know them and their families. There is an outside area with plugs and a hammock to work at as well as the breakfast area. It’s super close to the secret beach and within walking distance to shops and restaurants. We loved it here and really didn’t want to leave!
- Guest (10/5): -
- Iratxe (4/5): - La ubicación. Habitación incomoda, no había apenas espacio para acceder al otro lado de la cama. La "terraza" daba a un muro, y la otra ventana daba a una zona común por lo que había que estar con las cortinas cerradas.
El baño olía mal.
El personal fue muy desagradable, apenas saludaban. No transmitieron cercanía alguna, no sentimos confianza de dejarles las maletas el día del check out. El desayuno era en una sala oscura y desagradable.

- Juan (9/5): Correctísimo - Es un lugar con buen ambiente y cerca de todo lo que se cuece por allí en temporada alta. El precio es razonable al igual que si te hacen la colada. Desayuno ok. -
- Guest (10/5): - It was nice specially breakfast
- Guest (10/5): - 价格实惠,地理位置优越
- Julia (10/5): - Clean and spacious room. Staff were helpful helping with finding tuk tuk drivers. Nice breakfast.
- Michaela (10/5): - Comfortable room and bed and SUPER close to the beach (less than 5 min walking). View is kind of blocked by another building.

- Kishore (9/5): -
- Montserrat (9/5): - Good quality new hotel. Beds are comfortable. Breakfast is good. There is a very clean kitchen if you want to cook and a terrace with a hammock. Staff is very nice and helpful. It is a five minute walk from the beach.
- Patrick (8/5): - Gemütlich Betten, gute Lage, sauber... in jedem Fall empfehlenswert.
- ChenChiuYen (10/5): CP值高,老闆樂於助人 - 就在港口旁,搭船賞鯨方便。老闆提供很多協助,有問題都可以詢問。房間空間大,空調強,環境乾淨,CP值高。 早餐普通,用餐區蒼蠅很多。家庭房的單人床床墊已塌陷,不適合再使用。
- Cristina (9/5): -
- George (2/5): Dirty room and misleading room advertisement - Not much. I changed my booking to one night only and left because it was disgusting. The place was filthy. Especially the bathroom which clearly had not been cleaned since the last person. Flies everywhere. Advertised as a garden view room but it faced a wall. Kind of sketchy area as well.
- Maria (9/5): A pleasant stay with friendly hosts and a comfortable room, with just a small improvement needed for luggage storage. - The hosts were very kind, friendly, and helpful, making us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The location was convenient, and the room was clean and comfortable. It would have been great to have an extra stand or shelf for placing our luggage and belongings.
- venu (10/5): - Location and cleaning
- Loïc (6/5): It was realy dirty in the kitchen. -
- Nicolette (10/5): - Clean and spacious room and bathroom.
Friendly staff.
Breakfast change day by day.
Close to Mirissa Beach, Secret beach You need to take off your shoes before entering the property.
- Guest (10/5): amazing stay - Well maintained property and wonderful staff It's low season
- Guest (10/5): -
- Marta (10/5): - La habitación amplia y nueva, la cama cómoda. El desayuno estaba bien. Las personas que lo llevaban muy amables. Buena ubicación. Lugar tranquilo Recomendación: Pondría algún colgador en la habitación para dejar las cosas mojadas, y en vez de manta pondría sábana en la cama. Nos quedamos 5 noches.
- Van Den Akker (9/5): - Good service and nice hosts. Bed was comfortable and it was only 15 min walk to the beach.
- Guest (10/5): - Frühstück und Lage sehr gut
Das Zimmer ist sauber, aber wegen der Nebensaison nicht sehr gut besucht
- Guest (10/5): - Nice and comfortable
- Shafali (7/5): - Staff is really nice, they are polite and listen to your queries. Facilities are good. Good common area with games etc. Really good vibes, location is good too. Common areas were kept clean but the dorms were not getting clean. They clean it only when new guest arrive, after that they don't care about rooms and bathrooms.
- MeeraSayabu (10/5): Good stay. Great property for this cost. - They can fix the shower. The shower was very slow in pour. Apart from this, everything is exceptionally good.
- Zoe (7/5): - - emplacement proche de la plage, assez rapidement dans le centre et au calme
- petit déjeuner inclus bien que très simple
- personnel flexible et arrangeant - douche sale

- Vinod (9/5): Very good stay in Mirissa - Very nice location..100m to coral beach and around 400m to Mirissa Beach. And 6km to weligama beach..The staff especially manager Mr Vihiga was very helpful and kind and the morning breakfast was very good Nothing
- rozc (10/5): Friendly staff and a clean place for families who are looking for an affordable price. - Booked the place very short period. Until we visited the place, we had no clue about the property. But, surprisingly, our children become more comfortable and enjoy staying there. Friendly staff and a clean place for families who are looking for an affordable price.
- Aashish (9/5): Awesome - Incredible place. Super clean, met two amazing fellow solo travellers there. Near the main road and the beach as well. Nothing.
- Misao (10/5): kitchen - good breakfast..
staffs.. nothing...
- Guest (8/5): -
- Victoria (9/5): Good place to stay - The staff were friendly and helped us whenever we needed it. We stayed at a double room, it was clean, had all the necessities. Bed was comfortable. Bathroom was clean. Breakfast was included, and it was also very good. The location is fine, maybe about 10-15 mins walk to Cargills. Very close to the beach.
My only advice would be to pay more attention to the outdoor sitting area on the 2nd floor - it’s a nice place but a bit messy, not great impression. And kitchen.
- Rigby (10/5): - Great value, quiet due to low season, great location, staff were amazing very very helpful.
- ruth (5/5): Meh, bien si no hay otra cosa con aire. - Tiene aire acondicionado, y está bien ubicado, habitación amplia. El personal es bastante pasota, no está muy atento. En el desayuno, que fue el más escaso de todo nuestro viaje (dos tostadas y unos huevos revueltos con mitad de un plátano), tuvimos que pedirle ambos días si podía ponernos un poco de te o café. A la hora de pagar, tampoco se interesó por ver cuánto debíamos ni hacer el cambio, pero si que dudó de si le estaba pagando lo suficiente por dos noches.

- Alex (9/5): Nice hostel with good location - Location was good, short walk to the main beach, secret beach and the main high street.
We had the private room which was really nice, clean, spacious and with a big bed and en-suite bathroom. There was no hot water but otherwise the facilities were good, they provided towels, soap and toothbrush set.
Breakfast was okay, we were given toast and eggs and fruit. There were no free water refills which some hostels do offer.
It wasn’t a sociable hostel but it was also off season so there were generally fewer people around.
- anna (10/5): -
- Sarah (5/5): Schlechtester Aufenthalt in Sri Lanka, sehr schlechtes Preis-Leistungsverhältnis - Die Unterkunft war zentral gelegene und man ist in nur wenigen Minuten am Strand. Es gibt viele Restaurants in der Umgebung. Wir hatten das Deluxe Zimmer mit Balkon gebucht. Direkt vorm Balkon war allerdings eine Baustelle, so dass wir diesen nicht nutzen konnten. Außerdem hat das Wifi nicht bis ins Zimmer gereicht. Wir haben das dem Personal gesagt, aber das war dem egal.
Das Frühstück war das schlechteste was wir in Sri Lanka hatten. Es gab vollkommen übersüßtes matschiges Toast, was man nicht essen konnte. Als ich nach was anderem gefragt habe, habe ich Toast mit Butter bekommen ohne jeglichen Aufschnitt. Kann nicht empfehlen Frühstück dazu zu buchen!
- Quiterie (8/5): - Très bon petit dej et hôte très sympa. La salle de bain du dortoir est très salle.
- Thinzar (3/5): - Cleanliness
- Akshay (9/5): it was really good - staff was really helpful. location was good you can get to the beaches in 5-10 min walk. rooms were clean and bed was comfy. breakfast was good too ( traditional) na
- Gal (1/5): - Somebody got into my room, and open my bag and stole my photography equipment. Ives tried to ask the staff that work there to show me the security camera, but apparently it wasn’t working and it
Was difficult to convince them to get someone that will make it work. And when I asked them to call the police, they refused because “ it will ruin the reputation of the hotel”
I was very disappointed this was very expensive and I need this equipment for my job.
I would expect a better behavior this situation.

- Srish (9/5): -
- Aurel (8/5): Good breakfast, Overcharging when paying at the desk. - Had been checked in straightforward and the room was given in less than a minute. All the basics are there. It was a good and kind breakfast. The boss talks to the staff woman through the phone. Told to charge me 2000 instead of 1800 per night. I had literally had to send a photo of my booking and negotiate it back and forth through her phone, to pay what is right. The woman said that it is too cheap with the breakfast. I would say put the price you need beforehand and then charge what i book and no more than what i agreed with.
- Lord RC Twisty (9/5): Super Awesome - Everything Air Conditioning was some issues at lower temperature 🌡️
- hannah (10/5): -
- Vazza (7/5): Posto ideale per vedere le balene - La posizione vicina ad una bella spiaggia La perdita di acqua da un tubo in bagno
- Siobhan (10/5): Highly recommended - Great team of staff. I found it hard to leave. Highly recommended for a value backpackers in Mirissa. WiFi didn’t work inside the private room but worked outside on the rooftop.
- Davide (8/5): - Posizione comoda per raggiungere il mare ed il porto. Colazione. In camera non c'era la possibilità di sistemare valigie e vestiti.
Pagamento esclusivamente in contanti.
