We stayed three nights at Nature Beach Huts and from the moment of the booking to our leave everything was fantastic! Brenda took so good care of us! We got the best route to get to the hotel via WhatsApp, got sight-seeing suggestions and Brenda was open for all of our questions. The Huts are made with so much love for detail. The close by beach is small but the water is wonderful. Separated from the oceans by a ring of stones, the laguna is 60 cm deep max and it’s so warm! Brenda is a fantastic cook. We stayed in for breakfast and dinner. We did a tour through Trincomalee with her brother as well as a nightly jungle walk. Both was really interesting and he explained a lot about Hindu temples and the wildlife.

Nice place—good value for the price. The family running it is very welcoming, kind, and decent, which made the stay feel comfortable. It’s just about 50m to the beach, so the location is also ideal. There are also some nice restaurants nearby if you want to try something different. Overall, a great stay!

The owner is very friendly and prepared a very nice seafood dinner!! I arrived trinco at 10pm and I worry I cannot get a driver from bus station to the hostel, I texted the owner(Rangan), he is so helpful to ask me try to get a tuk tuk first, if can’t he will pick me up at the bus station.

Pleasant Park Holiday Inn was exactly that - pleasant! The room was even better than in the pictures and I was surprised with the cleanliness of it. The staff was very approachable and not obtrusive. The owner was very fun to talk to as he has interesting stories from all over the world. I would gladly recommend this stay!

Location was perfect (close to beach and amazing restaurants), staff were incredibly helpful, whole place was super clean and exceptional value for money. All quite basic, but it had everything we needed. The shared kitchen and fridge is also very useful… all in all a great place for a beach holiday!

A perfect couple of days staying at this wonderful new property in Uppeveli. The room was very spacious and light, the mattress and bed were really comfortable, the bathroom is also wonderfully soacious with 2 very good showers. Beyond the bedrooms, there are plenty of more communal spaces (currently no seating, but you can easily take the chair from your bedroom out here) and a wonderful veranda surrounding the whole of the 1st floor. The host is incredibly kind and helpful, and is able to arrange tours with his contacts if you would like. Location wise, it is down a quiet lane just off the main road, making it easy to access yet remarkably peaceful. You can access the beach a 5 minute walk away, which is perfectly okay if you would like to go for a beach walk or watch a gorgeous sunrise with the locals out on their finishing boats. Beyond that, just a 5 minute Tuktuk ride away is Fernando’s bar, which has a lively beach bar feel, catering for any kind of food, with hammocks and sun loungers under the palms, and beach parties every night. 5 minutes in the other direction from the hotel is Trincomalee, allowing you to see the more cultural side of the area. All in all, this great new property is great value, in the ideal location to explore the areas easily, and with a host who bends over backwards to accommodate you- if you are looking for a place to stay near Trincomalee, this is the place to go.

    Our room was extremely comfortable and well air-conned. Our lovely host was extremely accommodating and kind throughout our stay. He brought us tea whenever we asked as well as helped us arrange a snorkelling trip. We also loved the cats! There were many cats to play with, all extremely friendly and adorable. We wish the host all the best with rescuing more cats and dogs.

    The host and his family are super friendly and helpful. They allowed us to check in earlier than expected and provided us with a lovely cup of coffee on arrival. We really got the feel of a home stay. The back of the property enters right onto the beach. The beach where the property is situated is private and private. Perfect for relaxation after busy days. We stayed for 3 nights and it was perfect for this length.
