Had a smooth and easy check-in experience. Everything was ready when we arrived, and the room was prepared in advance, which made things hassle-free. The location is great, and the atmosphere at night had a nice, laid-back vibe. The place is simple, but it covers all the essentials and does the job well. The host was nice. Just a heads-up: the photos were taken right before checking out, so it might not look as fresh as when we arrived. Overall, a good stay in a convenient spot.

This was our best stay in Sri Lanka so far. Very attentive staff, rooms are new, huge, comfy and clean. During our stay, we decided to stay longer as we really liked it there. The bathroom is new and also there is a hot water which I consider as a huge plus. The design of the place is great, the garden is well maintained. The service is perfect and they even try to improve it. Breakfasts are local and very delicious, every day we ate something new. We are 100% recommending this place as it was very pleasant. Everything was perfect, no complaints :)

Had an absolutely wonderful stay at the hotel! We had a few minor hiccups at the start, but the way the team addressed our concerns was truly commendable. The resort is beautifully located — a must-stay if you’re visiting Trinco.

Just in the second row behind the beach front, we had calm and restful nights in our lovely hut just 5 minutes from the vibrant beach. We can definitely recommend these Cabanas!

First of all, I have to praise the manager of the hotel. He always helped us with anything we needed, from checking us in early to organizing breakfast, booking activities and arranging transport. He also gave us tips for great snorkeling spots and good restaurants and made it possible for us to have rice and curry for breakfast instead of the usual choices. The hotel itself was also great. Just a few minutes from the beach and close to a variety of good restaurants. It was very clean and very well maintained. We felt very comfortable the whole 9 days we were there! It happened more than once that we met other tourists in town who were unhappy with their accommodation, but as for my boyfriend and I, we can wholeheartedly recommend this hotel!

I loved the design and decor, very close to nature around it. The hosts are great. Very well informed and accommodating. They were able to prepare packed breakfast for me during my stay as I was leaving the property very early. The animals are also very docile and friendly. I also walked away with a bunch of plant cuttings and a recipe for deviled calamari!

An exceptional lovely and sweet home stay close to Nilaveli beach (3 minutes walk). The family is so attentive and helpful, especially the mother Malika (hope I spelled it right). Very tasty Sri Lankan breakfast served when it suits you, and she offers you coffee/tea in the evenings. Anything you need, the family will help you (tuk tuk, boat trips, tips on how much to pay etc). I loved spending three nights here, relaxing on the porch in the evening, chatting with the family and their two cats (and kittens!). If I come back to Nilaveli I will definitely stay here again. If you want an authentic stay and want to feel at home, I can recommend staying here.
