Close to the Beach and next to the best Restaurant Mom's Kitchen, this place is a real gem. Rooms are super clean, good bed, good working shower and AC. The owner Prasanth is super friendly and takes such good care of all the stray cats and dogs in the area. He made it his life goal to take care for the animals nobody else is looking after, which makes him a true hero! At the place itself, there also are super cute dogs and cats that live there and it was a pleasure spending time with them. We hope to come back soon and would recommend everyone who comes to Trincomalee to spend your time here, you won't regret it! Ps: almost everything he earns he will use it to take stray animals to the vet, for food & medicine for the cats and dogs... So if you can, give him a nice tip so he can continue doing such beautiful work! ♥️

We had another booking in Trinco but some unexpected events in our previous accommodation forced us to find something new. Sunbreeze was even better than our previous one. The family was really nice and welcoming asking about everything we need and taking care of us. There is such a nice and family atmosphere :). You have AC in your room, you can use balcony and common terrace. Room was very clean with enough places to leave your things. The owner is also renting scooters for such a fair price which we used. Thank you very much

Excellent value for money. Newly built (it only opened in March). It’s clean, comfortable, quiet and has excellent wifi. There are only three rooms. The owner lives nearby, is friendly and always very quick to answer WhatsApp messages. It’s basic and no frills but for such a cheap price a really good place.

    Our room was extremely comfortable and well air-conned. Our lovely host was extremely accommodating and kind throughout our stay. He brought us tea whenever we asked as well as helped us arrange a snorkelling trip. We also loved the cats! There were many cats to play with, all extremely friendly and adorable. We wish the host all the best with rescuing more cats and dogs.

    The host and his family are super friendly and helpful. They allowed us to check in earlier than expected and provided us with a lovely cup of coffee on arrival. We really got the feel of a home stay. The back of the property enters right onto the beach. The beach where the property is situated is private and private. Perfect for relaxation after busy days. We stayed for 3 nights and it was perfect for this length.
