- the manager and staff are the most helpful and friendly people. Eric was the best host, really making us feel at home and arranging all our activities and food - the food was simply amazing. Breakfast was local and surprising, and the two morning we were there they made something entirely different for us. The crab rice and curry for lunch was simply amazing and the pastas for dinner were also superb. - the place and view are breathtaking and so relaxing. the best place to relax yourself 😊 - the rooms are really clean, big and beautiful

    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.

    The location of this hotel on Nilaveli beach cannot be beaten. It is 100m down from the louder beach bars area - with all the local fishing boats in between. The pool is clean and large and the shaded palm tree area beside it is a beautiful place to sit in a hammock. The attractive huts on the hotels’ private beach area provide shade for the sun beds - the beach is clean and the sea great for body boarding (July). The staff are all friendly and some of them had a pro-active approach to the guests.
