The hotel is absolutely beautiful, spotlessly clean, with delicious breakfasts and extremely friendly staff. Upon arrival, we were welcomed with a shot of local coconut arrack, fresh papaya juice, and a cold wet towel for refreshment — a lovely touch. Our room was spacious and even had a second exit to a terrace just a few meters from the stunning pool, where pool towels were always available. Every morning, after enjoying a fantastic serving of curd with honey and a fresh fruit platter, we were offered a choice between a traditional Sri Lankan breakfast or a Western-style breakfast — all beautifully prepared and delicious. Every day, we were provided with one liter of water per person and a fresh king coconut each. The staff checked daily if we wanted our room cleaned, fresh towels, extra toilet paper, shower gel, shampoo, and conditioner — amazing care for guests. The hotel also has a private gated parking area where we safely parked our tuk-tuk, and there’s even a professional massage chair available for everyone in the common area. Highly recommended — we would definitely stay here again!

Everything!! Really nice room and bathroom, everything was very clean. There are only 4 rooms so we enjoyed the quietness of the place which is a rare find in Hiriketiya! The pool was amazing, with nice sun beds and umbrellas to enjoy it anytime of day! The owners are also really kind people, who were welcoming, and gave us great advices about where to eat and what to do. The breakfast was also very nice, they asked us every day if what they were offering was suitable for us which was a very nice consideration. If you are in Hiriketiya, I couldn’t think of a better place to stay! Little hidden paradise. And finally, we could see monkeys from the swimming pool playing in the trees which made us really feel like we were in the middle of the jungle! We loved this place.

We walked by the hotel one day and looked it up on the internet. The hotel just opened but we booked a room for 3 nights. The owner, Enrico was the sweetest. Very good communication before we arrived at the hotel and also during our stay! The staff is very helpful! Everything is brand new. The rooms are very beautiful and the view on the rooftop is amazing. We recommend this hotel and are definitely coming back!

It was one of the best hotels we have ever stayed. Starting with super welcoming people and staff, you suddenly find yourself in a cosy, yet modern villa that feels like home. The rooms are just awesome, amazing view and not only the view of village and the Weligama bay, but you can also see jungle monkeys living their best life from your own room. Great pool side and super clean environment. Location is close to different beaches and the cute streets of Mirissa village. On top of the experience of the Nine Mirissa is the chef, Chandana, who makes you the most delicious meals - we had our best Sri Lankan meals there. They also help out with taxi and transfer, tours etc. Simply the most amazing stay!

The pictures don't do justice to the entire experience we had here. It's a brilliant property in a brilliant location. Such good vibes and energy. Lovely staff, very friendly. Their cafe is so good and it's right on the beach 😍 I am definitely coming back! They also have a super cute Rottweiler. Extremely friendly and goofy. 🥰

Perfect hotel, perfect location on a cliff above the ocean. The pool is huge. The food is very varied and delicious. The beach below the hotel is good for kids, natural pools form the rocks and sea turtles come there. The entertainment man named Ajantha kept the kids busy with pool games and was very kind.

Great location right on the beach. Lounge chairs and table chairs available to use on the beach. Yummy breakfast included. Very welcoming, friendly and helpful staff. Easy check-in and check-out. My room was spacious with high ceiling, balcony, great aircon/fan, balcony.and quality furniture. Bed and pillows are very comfortable. Electric kettle was very useful for making tea/coffee and instant noodles.

Had a wonderful relaxing weekend here. Beautiful view of the sea in the room, which had a gorgeous bathroom. Amazed by the extraordinary architecture of the house. The breakfast was exceptional, one of the best I've had in SL. There is also a little shop in the building for luxury linen items. You are right on the beach and walkable to the nearby turtle bay, and close to dickwella and hiriketiya.

The family room was a perfect size for us. The hotel is located right on the beach, and you can swim In the ocean or go next door and order a couple of beers from the bar and use their pool. Central Weligama & Marissa are only a short tuk tuk ride away.
