This place is a little paradise! You wake up directly at your private beach. The room is big, the bed is comfortable, the bathroom is clean and there's air condition. The house itself is so pretty and decorated beautifully. It looks just like the pictures, or even better:) Mandy, the host, is such a sweetheart and gave us so many tips. They organized a privat boat pick-up to pigeon Island and borrowed us snorkeling equipment. The food they offer (besides breakfast you can order lunch/dinner/snacks/dessert anytime) is freshly home cooked and very delicious. So you don't even have to leave the place to look for food, which we really enjoyed since we visited in December (which is not season). We even had a little candlelight dinner right on the beach, which was so romantic and nice. Would highly recommend going there, if you are looking want some relaxing beach days!

this place is THE place to stay in Nilaveli or trincomalee area. Even though the area is very hot, this felt like a cool oasis. lots of space to chill, do yoga or read. The rooms are also big, not too hot and shower has a great preassure! The owners are amazing hosts, super friendly, we enjoyed the conversations. Thank you! ☀️

We came here for 5 days but ended up staying 10. You get good coffee, homemade bread and waffles for breakfast. Not to mention a good chat with the owner Mr. Seran, who really makes you feel welcome. He even brought pretty cakes from Trincomalee to celebrate the birthday of my twin girls. Rooms are clean and convinient and you are only 2 minutes from the beach. If you like diving, Pearl Divers are really close. And on the beach you find plenty of boats that can take you whale-watching or snorkelling. We are coming back!

This is the best place we stayed in Sri Lanka on our one month long trip! Gorgeous beach, the kindest owner, great wifi, clean and the most relaxing, beautiful hut! They also have someone offering snorkelling trips to pigeon island who is the kindest guide and I would 100% recommend doing! This hotel is slightly more pricey, but absolutely worth it! We will definitely come back 😊
