700 metres from Hiriketiya Beach, Painkiller Hiriketiya is a recently renovated property located in Dickwella and provides air-conditioned rooms with free WiFi and private parking. There is a private entrance at the homestay for the convenience of those who stay. The accommodation offers a 24-hour front desk and parking on-site. The location was perfect, very close to the beach, shops, restaurants and more. The breakfast made by the owner and his family was stellar as well. It was one of the best ones we have eaten in Sri Lanka. It is optional though, so you can opt out, but you would be missing out!! We met some great people as well during breakfast, which gave a bit of a homely feeling, this was perfect. The room was super clean, the airconditioning cold, and the stay was just about perfect. We miss it already!

Staff all super friendly and smiling all the time. Breakfast, Sri lankan or western, was very good too. I had sri lankan each day which was always delicious. Free purified water on tap in the communal area. You can walk into Mirissa around 15 mins along a busy ish road, or grab a tuk, there's plenty of them. Best stay I had in 3 weeks, and very reasonable price. I would definitely stay here again travelling solo or with a partner.

This property offers access to a balcony and free private parking. The homestay features family rooms. We had a great stay at the ED Corner. We were given a delicious welcome drink on arrival. The room was lovely with a comfortable bed that had a mosquito net. The bathroom was very cool with an open roof and palm tree in the middle. The wifi and air conditioning worked well. The location was close to restaurants, walking distance to Hiriketiya beach and Dickwella beach and ATMs. Also the bus stop was close by too. The man who runs this hotel was super helpful. We enjoyed our stay so much here we decided to extend for an extra night.

Situated just 1.3 km from Abimanagama Beach, Freedom192 features accommodation in Weligama with access to a garden, a terrace, as well as a 24-hour front desk. There is a private entrance at the guest house for the convenience of those who stay. Boasting family rooms, this property also provides guests with an outdoor fireplace. Everything! We stayed in the small room attached to the main house; it was perfect for us! The bathroom was sooo beautiful haha it was like an outdoor shower surrounded by rocks (pictures on the listing don’t do it justice!!). The bed was super comfy and the AC worked great! It was so nice to come back to the cool space after a day in the heat. Make sure you keep the bathroom door closed or else the mosquitoes will find their way in! The kitchen we were able to use was great and had everything we needed. Lovely family running the place as well. Location was also really nice, jungle beach is close and there’s a nice restaurant next door. Would definitely recommend!!
