This was the best place to stay in Hiri. Fantastic house. Super nice rooms. Great hosts. Paradise. Better to hire a scooter as it is a 4 min scooter ride to the centre.

I would write a poem to this place if I could! This hotel, its owners Jeremy and Julia and the team made our holiday. We planned to spend there 4 nights and go further, but everything was so good, and we decided to spend here the rest of our holiday. Everything was spotless: room, team, breakfast, swimming pool, beach, ocean — just everything. Two things that you should know. First: there are many nice restaurants around, though there is nothing on google maps. Second: you definitely have to see the shop on the second floor, because Julia creates amazing clothes. Thank you, Jeremy and Julia! We wish you and your team all the best!

A wonderfully peaceful place, a beautiful, spacious room with a huge bed and a balcony overlooking the trees and the monkeys that live there😍Very clean bathroom, hot water and toiletries. Very nice owners, very helpful. The whole building was calm and quiet. One of the best places I've been to during my trip to SriLanka. There is a restaurant next door, there are breakfasts and lunches. The restaurant is owned by the same owners. They also have a tuk tuk available so you can arrange a ride if you want to keep going. Highly recommended☺️And most importantly, opposite, just after crossing the street is the descent to the beach where you can admire the turtles and 3 minutes to Coconut Tree Hill. Beautiful place.

The family are delightful. So helpful and kind. The bed is comfortable, the room a little small for us but with plenty of storage. Very close to the beach. As it is off season, many of the restaurants were not operating, however, it was very easy and cheap to get a tuk tuk to restaurants. During peak season. There are many beach front restaurants to choose from. We had a beautiful Sri lankan breakfast cooked by our host, and good coffee.

best place to be! great location for those who want quiet, highly maintained accommodation at reasonable prices. the breakfast was amazing every day, was diverse and I think it was the best dishes and local food i have eaten in sri Lanka. the host family was super nice and even taught me how to make Sri Lankan food. the view is so beautiful and there is a beautiful garden where they bring the mangoes for breakfast. thank you so much

The family running the hostel is really charming, always there and with an exceptional breakfast. Location is 10mins walking to the main beach and restaurants and the neighborhood is quiet and full of animals, and trees. Definitely if I come back to Mirissa I will stay in same place

Very charming with all the nature around. The host was very friendly and catered to my gluten free needs for breakfast. Not far to walk to the beach. It is up a hill but very manageable to walk and felt safe at night. There are 2 yoga shalas on either side of the guest house. Monkeys and squirrels playing in the trees just outside.

Lovely small hotel with great hosts and staff. Stylish rooms, with best view towards the pool and beach. We even got to see some baby turtles being released to the ocean. The breakfast is really nice with all sorts of fruits, fresh pancakes and eggs however you like them. Located in quiet Batheegama, only a quick 10 min tuktuk ride to Hiriketiya.
