I recently stayed at the Giman Free Hotel and had a unique experience. This hotel is truly isolated, far away from civilization, making it a perfect spot for introverts or those looking for solitude.
While the hotel itself is clean, it is clear that some renovations are needed to update the facilities. However, the staff more than makes up for any shortcomings with their friendliness and willingness to accommodate guests.
The restaurant at the hotel surprised me with its delicious food, which I found to be better than what I have experienced at some five-star hotels in Sri Lanka. The beach near the hotel is clean.
However, the downside of the beach which is very wild and long is the amount of garbage and plastic that washes up on the shore. Since the beach is deserted it was disheartening to see all the pollution scattered along the shoreline.
Overall, if you are seeking a quiet retreat away from the hustle and bustle of city life, the Giman Free Hotel is a great option. Just be prepared for a bit of roughness around the edges of the beach.

"Giman Free Beach Resort is a hidden gem! The untouched beauty of the location, with its coral reefs and shallow waters, is breathtaking. The rooms are cozy and well-maintained, and the staff go out of their way to make you feel welcome. The beach is perfect for swimming and snorkeling, and we had an amazing time exploring the underwater world. The food was delicious, and the overall experience was unforgettable

Nice Eco Resort with safe beach for a bath.Very comfortable beds, with large washing areas. Its in the middle of the jungle with lots of nature. Great seafood, fresh days catch is served according to your wish. We liked the Jaffna crab curry that we got for us. Ideal location for nature lovers, photography and underwater lovers. One of the best places to relax, no one to bother you on the beach. Long beach walks and trekking at your will.

Beautifully located hotel on the beach in a quiet location. Clean, spacious rooms with a sea view. Staff goes out of their way to make you feel comfortable. Food was good and available to order at any time. Swimming pool is big and clean. The only drawback is that there is a lot of washed up plastic on the beach

Best thing about the hotel is the location. Nature lovers and people who like peaceful places must book this hotel only. And book it on full moon night. You will never regret. It will be a lifetime experience. Extremely extremely fantabulous moonlit night stay it will be for the nature loving people. Totally satisfied with the hotel stay. Clean rooms , Clean bathroom with bath tub , clean swimming pool , Moonlit beach experience. Beach is just 5 steps away from the hotel. Everything about the hotel is just 10/10. The staffs will make sure that you enjoy your stay completely. Babu supervisor , Ajeeth manager , Pavi cook + auto driver , Neroshan helper , Darshini and Ronshini cleaners..all of them did an amazing job to make our stay enjoyable. All of them are very very helpful , cooperative, supportive and hospitable. 10/10 Pavi makes very delicious food for the guest. Indian, Sri Lankan, English breakfast options are available. A la carte menu is available for lunch dinner snacks. Alcoholic drinks are also available. Food quantity is more than enough. One person cannot finish the food, they give huge quantity. We witnessed fresh fish buying from the beach fishermen. You may buy fresh fish from there and ask the restaurant staff to cook it for you. No disturbance, Only Peace and Enjoyment.
