Zeker geld niet waard
Pros:

De ligging aan het strand is geweldig

Cons:

De kamers zijn niet hygiënisch, badkamer beschimmeld en kakkerlakken
Er worden geur verfrissers gehangen om de geur te verdoezelen
Kamers worden veel duurder verkocht op Booking dan ze adverteren aan de deur

Pros:

Ubytování na přímo na pláži. Velmi dobrá jídla v restauraci.

Cons:

Hotel by potřeboval kompletní rekonstrukci , ušmudlané pokoje. Na to v jakém byl hotel stavu byl pobyt předražený. Za mě velké zklamání. Nejhorší ubytování na Sri Lance. Pobyt jsem zkrátil o 3 noci

Pros:

We visited Fresh Wave Mirissa in February 2026, and it turned out to be one of the best travel experiences we’ve had. The rooms were exceptionally clean, comfortable, and well-maintained, and the food was consistently delicious.
What truly sets this hotel apart is its stunning location—it opens directly onto the beach, making the entire property feel serene and beautiful. The evening vibe is especially memorable. The hotel has its own restaurant where you can personally pick your fresh fish and seafood before it’s cooked, which made dining there a unique and enjoyable experience every night.
The highlight of our stay, however, was the staff. In all our travels, we have rarely encountered a team that is this well-trained, warm, and genuinely friendly. They were incredibly accommodating, always ready to help, and went out of their way to assist us in planning activities and getting around the area smoothly.
Another big advantage is the location—the hotel is conveniently close to all the major hotspots in and around Mirissa, making it easy to explore without hassle.
100 percent recommended for anyone looking for a beautiful beachfront stay with outstanding hospitality. We would absolutely stay here again

I highly do NOT recommend this place.
Pros:

The beach it’s located on is literally the only highlight of the property.

Cons:

My friend and i had THE most unpleasant experience at fresh wave. Day 1 we asked for a simple adapter and even that wasn’t handed over to us till the last day. The staff lacks basic hospitality. Our bathroom vent was literally open allowing SO many mosquitoes and you can literally peep inside. When we raised an issue regarding this their solution was to cover it with a makeshift newspaper. The breakfast was below average. As a vegetarian i accidentally almost ate fish because there was no tag mentions of the food. As two female travellers we obviously went to see the night life and would arrive late only to find the shutter of the resort closed. It’s extremely scary for 2 women visiting an unknown country. We even raised a concern about this only for it to happen to us again. We had to walk ALL ALONE and find our way to the hostel from the beach. The manager there is extremely ill mannered and so is the female staff. One of the female staff was also allegedly taking a video of us and as soon as we mentioned women’s safety she laughed and when we caught her she put her phone down. We also decided to speak to the owner regarding this and his solution was to give a 5% off on our stay and free breakfast. The owner did not take our concerns seriously at all and that’s when we realised no wonder the staff is like this. I do NOT recommend this place at all, you will find better (and much much cheaper options). One of the staff tried to charge us 500 LKR for a towel when he knew we were staying there. When we raised this concern as well, their solution was “we will pay you back the 500 LKR”
Horrible horrible experience.

OK for a short holiday
Pros:

Location is good on the beach, staff are very good.

Cons:

My room was on ground floor next the partway from Beach/restaurant. So it was very noisy . Could not sleep till well past midnight. The restaurant played some recorded music, but a very poor system. They could improve it

Pros:

Struttura carina, tuttavia meriterebbe di lavori di ammodernamento per quel che concerne soprattutto i bagni. Si trova di fronte alla spiaggia, dove la sera si può mangiare in riva al mare a prezzi modici. Il personale è gentile e disponibile, anche se non molto espansivo. La camera è pulita, con balcone, letti abbastanza comodi. Nelle immediate vicinanze c'è una via molto trafficata, con numerosi negozi, dove si può fare shopping. Nella struttura si può pagare solo in contati, tenetelo a mente.

Cons:

Location was amazing but for 565 USD I think I can get much better service
Pros:

Location

Cons:

Rude staff
Tried to charge extra by doing dubious calculations when we were paying cash
Did not clean our room
Breakfast was good but they were not serving properly. E.g) When we asked for eggs they said they are paid, and once confronted they said only one per person.
Staff didn’t even care when we said that the service is not good.

Helt ok
Pros:

Ligger flott til ved stranden med alt innenfor kort gå avstand. Behagelige senger og puter

Cons:

Var kakerlakker på rommet flere ganger enda vi ga beskjed og de mente de hadde sprayet rommet. Til og være et fire stjerners hotell syntes jeg renhold var dårlig da de ikke gjorde renhold på rommet vårt og vi måtte selv etterspørre rene håndklær. Det så også ut som det vokser svart mugg på badet.
