Mirissa Hills Resort

We stayed here for 2 nights, with dinner and breakfast option, what can I say? A place we would never have expected. Located on a hill, surrounded by the forest, it is a corner of absolute peace, in a rustic, but very well-kept and elegant environment. The sounds of nature are the only noises you hear, a place that is good for the soul. The food is spectacular, all made on the spot and always plentiful. The thing I loved most is the infinity pool, overlooking the forest, there are lots of monkeys, squirrels and an infinite variety of birds. If you want to relax and connect with nature, this is the ideal place.

The hotel has a beautiful and quiet environment, and the decoration design is very textured. The view of the mountain is very beautiful. It is not far from the beach and the bustling town. The geographical location can be said to be quite excellent. However, since the hotel is located on the top of a hill, the road up and down the mountain is very narrow and muddy, making it difficult for vehicles to go up and down the mountain. When we finally reached the top of the mountain and discussed check-out with the hotel staff, we asked them to use the hotel's tuktuk to help us take our luggage down the mountain. (We had booked 5 rooms for several families that night, so you can imagine how much luggage we had.) But they refused. Even when I offered to give them a certain tip, they didn't agree. It was amazing! It’s OK for us to walk up and down the mountain normally, but how can we carry so much luggage? It's really too much that the hotel doesn't even consider this for its guests. Even our driver, a local Sri Lankan, criticized the hotel for its poor service. Fortunately, our driver was helpful and contacted the hotel manager through an acquaintance. He then arranged for a service staff to take our luggage downstairs and received a tip of 2,000 rupees. But the bad service experience still left us with a bad impression.
