The breakfast was tasty, served with omlette and bread and coffee. The staffs were absolutely friendly, they helped me arranged everything, and helped me buying cigarettes because I don't know local languange and where is the cigarette shop. The resort was quite close to the beach, like 1 minute walking you can arriving the beach, the sunrise was definetely amazing coz the beach was facing east. Diving with shoy's diving center was also an amazing adventure, the owner and the staffs of shoy's diving center have a lof of diving experience, and also very friendly. On the last day of my stays, the resort arranged me a cab to the airport, the driver's name was ISHAM, who had a lovely heart, conversable and friendly. He showed me plenty of beautiful views on the way to the airport, leaded me to a Lake side and we had a cigarette together with a perfect lake view. I was on a bad mood actually, but I really found a little peace when I was sitting on the lake side and having the cigarette.

    I liked the small hotel we stayed in on the beach front (Mithra Paradise) and the semi-private beach. A real gem if you're looking for a quiet romantic place. Much better than the big faceless commercial hotels. I would recomemmend the small guest houses in the whole of SL for this reason as the service is exceptional and they are usually family-run so they put a lot of love and effort into pleasing their guests. No mosquitoes in July. Avoid the dolphin watching 'chasing' tours. Loads of boats making a big noise and running over the dolphins. Poor animals. You only glimpse them for a few seconds and the boat ride is hell on your back. Try the snorkelling instead.

    A much more peaceful beach holiday that at neighbouring Uppaveli, so if you want to get away from the crowds, it’s a perfect spot. The surrounding countryside looks beautiful too - I wish we’d have had more time to explore. We ate at Sara’s fish restaurant, where the seafood kottu & prawn curry were delicious.

    Nilaveli is the perfect beach if you want peace and quiet , not many shops or facilities about, a few ok restaurants near by some expensive for Sri Lanka even more pricey than England, would need to travel 15km by local Tuk Tuk to find a good choice in Trincomalee-Nilaveli-Pulmodai which around 2000 rupees each way

    Very soft golden sand. Sea was not rough during our stay. Snorkeling trips are arranged by guides to nearby Pigeon Island. Pristine corrals and species. May be less restaurants along the beach, and not much of public facilities like toilets and wheelchair access etc

    Nilaveli has a lot to offer.

    Nilaveli has a lot to offer. The lower part of the beach closer to Trincomalee is very much like Bali or Goa with lots of accommodation including budget friendly options. It has many small cafes and restaurants right on the beach. There are also many dive shops offering diving experiences at Pigeon Island just off the coast. The upper end of the beach is more secluded and has fewer beach cafes and bars. This is where the larger more upmarket Nilaveli Beach Hotel is located.

    If you are going to Trincomalee, you have to stay at Memo’s! You pay a bit extra but you get a lot in return: great food, beautiful beach, amazing staff, and the best coffee in town. It is of course tricky to order Italian food abroad but their pastas and pizzas are delicious. My boyfriend turned 30 here and after asking the staff to arrange a small surprise for him, they went out of their way to create a romantic dinner on the beach. They also arranged a trip to Pigeon Island and train tickets for us. Many thanks to them!

    Excellent. We were very well looked after by Eric and the team and particular mention should go to Kabi and Danu. The property is highly original and stylish; the food is delicious. We were able fully to relax on the small private beach area. There are no restaurants nearby, but a walk into north Nilaveli and a reservation (in advance) at 'My Kind of Place' is recommended - delicious fresh fish. A wonderful stay at C Beyond and very memorable.

    The owner was nice, very welcoming. He arranged a transport from Trincomalee for a reasonable price. We were offered tea. We had towels and we had a good WiFi. The house is a few minutes walk from the beach, very reasonable. The owner said he had a boat and could arrange a trip to Pigeon island, but finally we didn't go and we stayed on the beach in Nilaveli.
