“Wonderful stay in Tangalle!”
The kindest & most helpful host you can imagine! We had wonderful time in Tangalle, rooms are comfy, with great beds, no AC though so it is a bit hot in the evening. Tasty breakfast, everything super clean and well maintained. Close to beautiful beaches and many cafes. We stayed for 4 nights with our family of 5 and would definitely come back again 🙏ps cute bar next door YUM serves best piñacoladas EVER!

The house is very beautiful and so are the rooms. We loved the big and comfortable bed. You can sit on the balcony which is very nice but there is a lot of burning in the area everyday so you will smell it outside. Some of the rooms have open parts in the windows but there is a nice mosquito net. The breakfast was lovely and the owner and his family are very sweet.

Basu is a really nice guy, that helped us with everything and was always friendly and smiling. The room ist very spacious and clean. The bed is comfy as well. The beach and a lot of diffrent restaurants are reachable within a few minutes walk. The centre of Tangalle is only a 15 min walk away, where you can find ATMs and also restaurants or supermarkets. We can highly recommend this accomodation.
