Bird House Mirissa is a unique, hand-built wooden homestay tucked away from the busy streets, yet just a short walk to the beach and fishing harbour. Nestled in a calm local neighbourhood and surrounded by trees, it offers a peaceful stay with visits from peacocks, monkeys, and other wildlife—often visible right from your balcony. Experience authentic Sri Lankan life with a rustic, homey atmosphere and warm hosting by Ishan and his family. Don’t miss the delicious traditional meals prepared by Ishan’s mother on-site. Please note: As part of the natural treehouse charm, you might occasionally spot harmless frogs, geckos, or bugs. If needed, the hosts are always happy to help!
I'm here to make sure you have a comfortable and memorable stay at Bird House. Whether you need help arranging a taxi, booking a tour, or finding the best things to do in Mirissa and nearby villages, I'm happy to assist. We have just one special room, so it books up quickly—don’t hesitate to reserve your stay! Looking forward to welcoming you to Bird House! Sunny wishes, Ishan 🌞
