“Cozy, quaint and warm”
It was quaint and the hosts were extremely hospitable. They checked in on us regularly and were also helpful with our queries. The place is not far away from the main road - just enough to not be crowded and loud. They also cooked lunch for extra cost on request.

“Lovely place and hosts”
We stayed at Girilena Guesthouse for four nights in total (even extended) and it was the best place for us in Sri Lanka so far! The family is really lovely and helpful, but you will have as much privacy as you want. The apartment is really good equipped with everything you need: Washing Machine, kitchen, mosquito net, you even have an outside place to sit. The neighborhood is quiet and Lots of nature, its about 1 km to the main road, which we really loved (rented a scooter). We really felt at home and would love to come back!

The best place in Sri Lanka 🔥 7 min walk to the sea and shops in a straight line, the beach is very clean and uncrowded Nilaksha and his family are the nicest and most hospitable people, they treated us to breakfast and delicious fresh mango juice, gave us coconuts, always helped us with everything, provided us with a grill and firewood and helped to light the fire. The hotel area is large and very beautiful, all green and palm trees. Each room has its own private area, so it feels like you are alone in your own area We rented a room on the first floor, the room was very clean, there was everything you needed: air conditioning, fan, hot shower. large kitchen with everything you need and a mechanical washing machine. the most comfortable accommodation and bright nice people. Thank you!

“The apartment was super clean with cooking/washing facilities.Best price in the area. 100% recommend”
The apartment was super clean with cooking/washing facilities. They offered amaizing vegan breakfast. Very good location only 400m from the beach and 5 minutes walk from the supermarket. Dushani and her family are looking after you 24 hours for your needs. They are super good hosts and really nice persons. I recommend to everyone to stay in this beautiful place. Best price in the area.

The best place I stayed in Hikkaduwa. Very peaceful and beautiful location, far away from cars and train noises. The room is very comfortable, equipped with all needed, you can cook everything in the kitchen and store food in the big fridge what is super comfortable. You can even make a barbecue. Hosts are very friendly and ready to help anytime. The supermarket is in 5 min, beach on 7-10 min on foot. I highly reconnect the guest house for staying.
