Great hotel with a beautiful garden and fantastic access to the sea. The beach was very quiet and offered great space to switch off. The staff were very courteous and professional - thanks again to Nathas and Sanju! The pizza that you can get in the in-house pizzeria is world class :) Highly recommended.

This is an excellent value-for-money establishment. What WOWED us immediately upon arrival was how close the beach and the sea was to us! Literally toe-touching distance! We spent two days here and fully enjoyed the sea, the sand and all the Southern Comforts offered to us. Miss Kumari's cooking is beyond excellence and Miss Kavindya and Mr. Nuwan are extremely friendly and helpful hosts. Good Job, Guys! We will be revisiting this lovely hotel in the near future. That's a promise.

MMENGZHUThere is a mini beach near the hotel, about 5 minutes walk, more than one kilometer to the main beach, or take a sudden car, the room is not small, you can really see the sea view, health, in a few days in Sri Lanka, I am used to it. Breakfast is fruit bread and the like. I go to eat around ten o'clock. I don't even have an omelette. I don't know if it is late, and many ants crawl on the dining table. It is a bit scary, and don't want to Coffee, really the most difficult coffee I have ever tried.

TTraveling TanI enjoyed my time at Ara Beach Resort, thanks to its excellent location and the fabulous pool. The staff were friendly and added to the resort's pleasant atmosphere. However, I'd suggest a little more focus on cleaning and keeping the buffet breakfast items hot. The food was delicious but consistently served cold. With these small changes, Ara Beach Resort could be even more wonderful.

GGuest UserCentral Beach Inn has a bunch of different room types at different price points. We stayed in the deluxe balcony with AC. Overall the room was ok and a decent size. My friend had issues with the bathroom door since it is very short and he is 6’1” (he hit his head several times). The room has a sort of colonial romantic feel with dark wood furniture and a four-poster bed with white mosquito netting. Standard amenities – WiFi, safe, small fridge, overhead fan, mini bar (electric kettle and coffee/tea), and toiletries. The steps to the balcony were very steep with a higher than normal rise and were shared with one other unit. A basin with water was on the landing for the stairs so that you could wash off sand from your feet. A gate was at base of the stairs. Breakfast was not included, and we did not eat at the restaurant. We did not have the room serviced while there by choice, but I think you have to ask if you want it cleaned. Comparison time: We stayed at two places in Mirissa Beach – Central Beach and Dream Palace. The two hotels are back-to-back with Central taking the beachfront and Dream Palace taking the street front. They both have their pros and cons. The rooms were significantly nicer and cleaner at Dream Palace, but I liked mattress better at Central as it was a little less hard. Both places had the same room amenities. You hear the music from the beach nightclubs at Central whereas you get the early morning beeping and bread-tuk tuk music from the street at Dream Palace (although the rear rooms are much quieter). Central is beach front and Dream Palace means that you walk through another hotel, for which the gates may all be locked after 1:00 am (be warned!). You will have to climb stairs at Dream Palace, but you can get a ground level room at Central. The service was significantly better and much more friendly at Dream Palace (family run) compared to the more business feel of Central. Central has a full restaurant and Dream Palace does not. The WiFi was somewhat stronger at Central and allowed for internet phone calls. Dream Palace is more budget friendly since it is not beachfront. As for Mirissa Beach itself, the beach is beautiful! The waves are very large and consistently frequent which means they may not be good for children or those who do not like to get batted around by waves. However, there is an area at the end of the beach by Parrot Rock with very gentle small waves that is good for kids. The beach is very busy all of the time and people come here for the nightlife. At least one restaurant a night turns into a club with a dj (until 3 or 4 am). At one end of the beach, they will put out these lit up frames that kind of look like giant eggbeaters out front of the bar that will be the club that night. They also have live music earlier in the evening at some of the other places. Mirissa Beach is a good central location on the south shore to make quick trips to Weligama (surfing) and Matara (city), and longer trips to Unawatuna

VViktoriya_051087Самое лучшее расположение, прям на берегу океана в удаленном от трассы и шума месте. Отель выбирали по приезду, не бронируя. Просмотрели очень много. Остановились на этом, учитывая адекватную стоимость, расположение, шикарный вид из окна и просторные номера. Персонал вежливый, выполняли все наши просьбы. Учитывая то, что сервис в Шри Ланке ниже среднего, в номерах не убирают, только по нашей просьбе, но так практически во всех отелях. О номере: очень большой, светлый, с панорамными шумоизоляционными окнами, с огромной удобной кроватью и балконом. Мебель не первой свежести. Интерьер обычный. Завтраки однообразные (яйца, фруктовый салат, фрэш, тосты, чай, кофе), но можно заказать за доп. плату по меню, готовят вкусно, но дороговато по сравнению с другими кафе. Мы ходили ужинать в Пети-Пети и Зефир (там очень вкусно), в Папа Манго. Радом с отелем в 2х минутах расположен Coconut tree hill. Отель расположен на замечательном черепаховый пляже, волны не большие, людей мало, очень комфортно, удобно с детьми. До главного пляжа Мириссы 20 мин вдоль пляжа пешком, но там большие волны, подходит серферам, плавать не комфортно, мы туда ходили только вечером в кафе. Мы отдыхали большой группой из 25 человек. Все были в разных отелях. Но Seastar мне понравился больше всего. Если не сильно привередливы к сервису и интерьеру, могу смело рекомендовать!

GGuest Uservery outdated, terrabale place, there is no connection between the pictures and reality, the hotel area looks like a garage floor, the pool area is neglected and outdated, furniture in the rooms is outdated and worn but the room is large, ants in the room and when we arrived the sheets were dirty. No hot water on rainy days. Located above a gas station . The only advantage is a location close to the beach and the center and the employee at the place was nice to us. The owner of the place charged an advance payment for two nights, the weather was stormy and we asked to leave early, I was told that the policy is not to refund, I accepted with understanding, but after in the evening it became clear that there was no hot water and I had no possibility of getting breakfast at an early hour, I again demanded that the difference for the night be returned to me The second one I will not use and the owner of the place did not show any flexibility and emphasized again that there is a policy. We must have been the only prairies who chose this wretched place

Whale watching Mirissa with Geeth

MM26***81I went there expecting to see nothing, because it felt like looking for a needle in a haystack. In the end, I was especially grateful to the captain for his perseverance. I saw hundreds of dolphins returning. The crew kept looking for whales in the vast ocean. Everyone thought there was no hope today, but they found a group of whales and the ethereal sound of whales that can only be seen in documentaries. It was a pity that I didn't take a photo. It was an amazing day! It was worth it!

Mirissa Tours

SSmadOne of the most famous beaches in Sri Lanka. Not only can you surf🏄🏻 and swim here, but you can also go out to sea to watch whales. We went out to sea from Mirissa. Although we only saw the tail of the whale, it was still a very good experience.

Coconut Tree Hill

开开麻麻🌸Coconut Hill is located east of Mirissa, far from the beach. It is a cape where the land extends into the Indian Ocean. It is famous for its coconut trees. I don't know who discovered it first, but because of the beautiful scenery here, it quickly became a popular tourist attraction and appeared on various social platforms or websites. It is indeed beautiful for taking pictures. [Scenery]
