Ocean Bliss by Sugar Coliving
"Beautiful beachfront property. You can see the ocean while you are in bed because the rooms are elevated, giving you a beautiful view of the cliff, tropical surroundings, and ocean. The rooms are boho-inspired ocean-view rooms. My rooms also have an outdoor bathtub with an ocean view. It was worth the money, especially as we stayed during the off-season. The room was clean and the staff were very friendly. The only noise you hear is the sound of the beach waves, which is exactly why we came. Amenities are limited because this is a co-living concept, but you still have everything you need for a long stay: a shared kitchen, washing machine, working desk, high-back chair for work, a small shop inside, and a good coffee machine."
AWON HOTEL MIRISSA
"Our stay at Awon Hotel was really good! The rooms were decent and comfortable, and the hygiene and cleanliness were excellent. The best part is the location, it is very close to the beach and most of the main attractions in Mirissa. Most importantly, the owner was incredibly friendly and helpful with everything, especially when it came to arranging transport and other activities. I highly recommend choosing Awon Hotel if you are visiting Mirissa"
Dickwella Resort and Spa
"Nice place"
Ayurvie Weligama - Ayurvedic Retreat - Thema Collection
"Fantastic resort hotel with a good price point. The staff were fantastic and really helpful. Close by to Weligama’s restaurants and cafes."
Randiya Sea View Hotel
"Excellent hotel, newly renovated! Gorgeous sea view! Clean pool! Excellent restaurant! The room has everything you need: kettle, coffee, towels!!!"
Outpost Weligama Beachfront
"Outpost Weligama exceeded my expectations. The facilities and staff were top notch and professionally run. The common areas, including the rooms were immaculate. Everyone was super friendly and attentive to my requirements, from check-in to food to booking taxis. Two things that really stand out were the quality of food at the rootop restaurant and the drinks prepared by their bartender Lahiru. In describing the former, the quality of food was beyond what I expected for a hostel/co-working space. The Head Chef worked in several resorts in the Maldives and in Dubai, which explained the exquisiteness of the food and the presentation. I couldn't believe the quality of the produce, size, flavour and presentation of the meals. The meals I had everyday and on New Years Eve 2024 were equivalent to what you'd expect at fine-dining restaurant in Melbourne, Sydney or Auckland. This was also the same with the cafe. Bartender Lahiru and his team made me and my friend feel very welcome. The drinks he prepared were sublime and matched the quality you'd expect at top bars around the world! I will definitely return to Outpost Weligama in the future!"
NiiRA Mirissa
"I had a truly comfortable and peaceful stay at Niire Hotel Mirissa last night. The friendly and welcoming staff made the experience even more special with their excellent hospitality and attentive service. Everything from the accommodation, food, and overall service was outstanding. The location is perfect, creating a relaxing and memorable atmosphere for guests visiting the southern coast. A special mention to the Area and Terras Restaurants for their delicious food and wonderful dining experience. Every meal was flavorful and beautifully prepared. I strongly recommend all down south travelers to visit and experience the wonderful stay at Niire Hotel Mirissa. It is truly a memorable place to relax, enjoy, and create beautiful memories."
We Are Surfers hotel
"This is a paradise for surfers and those seeking solitude! I stayed in this atmospheric hotel right by the ocean – and it's the best spot for beginners in Sri Lanka! Cozy rooms with endless ocean views, a private beach to chill on after surfing, and the staff are simply legends – always positive and ready to help with anything from a surfboard to a minor issue. The attention to detail is pro-level: from the delightful lemongrass shower gel to the designer hangers that perfectly dry your wet clothes. And the coffee? The best on the whole island! I'll be back 100%, 🏄♂️☕ 5/5. If you want to learn to surf, definitely sign up for their surf school – it's amazing! I'd also like to give a special shout-out to the school itself and a huge thank you to Kolya and Asanka. They get you up on the board in no time; it's not just "paddle, stand up," they explain everything so clearly that you have no questions left. These guys know their stuff 1000% – technique, wind, tides, all by the book, but with fun and humor. After just 3 lessons, I was already catching my own waves confidently! Perfect for beginners and those looking to upgrade. I recommend it to everyone."
Smeralda Beach Hotel Dikwella
"We ate twice at the restaurant here. Both times they set up a table on the beach. The food and service were very good. As it was the birthday of one of our party they decorated our table and got a special birthday cake for us which was delicious. Prices are slightly higher than average Sri Lankan restaurants but not excessively and the service makes up for this!"

Sailors Mirissa
"Loved my stay at this hotel in Sri Lanka! 🏨✨ Service was top-notch, and the staff were very friendly and welcoming. Would definitely love to come back again.”"
Handagedara Resort & Spa
"It was a clean and comfortable environment. The beach is also close, and there is also a fishing port if you walk a little. We have everything we need."
Triple O Six
"Loved the service and our stay"
Riverside Cabanas
"Proper boutique joint with stacks of character! The Good Oil: Heaps of colour – peacocks strutting about, monkeys chillin' in the distance. Aircon's a ripper – saved our bacon in the heat. Brekkie (fresh fruit + omelette) was bonza. Absolute legend Danush sorted us a whale-watching tour – bloody tops! The Downsides: Wi-Fi's cactus outside the lobby, prices sting a bit (not exactly cheap as chips). Pool's a bit pokey but sparklin' clean. River view? Yeah... nah. More like a prison vibe through the pool fence mesh. All things considered? Solid 4/5 for the spot. Does the job with flair!"

"Fantastic hotel in front of surf beach."
