The perfect sunny hideaway
Pros:

Very friendly hosts and perfect location

Cons:

Because it was low season, food wasn’t an option although the hosts did offer to arrange for us but we decided to eat out.

Un séjour au calme dans un endroit paradisiaque
Pros:

Les repas étaient succulents, la décoration superbe, le confort des chambres et l'accueil étaient chaleureux. Vous pouvez vivre le Sri Lanka paisiblement dans cet endroit avec beaucoup de faune et de flore autour de vous.

Un alojamiento en una casa en una calita escondida preciosa. La habitación super limpia y comoda, con un balcón con vistas al mar. También tienen un pequeño restaurante donde hemos cenado y desayunado de maravilla sobre el agua. La familia majisimos! Un lugar estupendo.

Pros:

Ubytování v malé rybářské vesničce přímo pod majákem, který je nejjižnějším místem Sri Lanky. K dispozici jsme měli kuchyňku i lednici a mají přímo i restauraci a vaří dobře, takže vlastně vše na jednom místě. Večer klid a romatika. Oddělené posezení pro hosty a návštěvníky restaurace.

Cons:

Není co

Just blissful!
Pros:

We were so delighted with our stay here and it was hard to leave. The location on the lighthouse peninsula was gorgeous with a sea breeze that kept the mosquitos away. We loved the wooden decks out over the water to eat our delicious meals. The beds were comfortable and rooms look out into the water. The ac did a good job in the heat. Dilanga was attentive, knowledgeable and friendly. We honestly couldn’t fault it and would love to come back again.

Cons:

I shared that a water cooler instead of bottled water would help to reduce plastic waste. But otherwise there was zero negatives and this wonderful guest house.

Pros:

Prachtig, sfeervol hotelletje aan mooie rustige baai. Hier geen ligbedjes maar vissersboten, dus heel weinig toeristen.

Eine tolle Lage ist noch nicht alles...
Pros:

Wir hatten unsere Aufenthaltslänge geändert und waren dadurch eine Nacht weniger da. Dementsprechend ist man uns auch gegenübergetreten.

Cons:

Mit dem Hühnchen und dem Thunfisch hätte man Fensterscheiben einwerfen können, so trocken war es.
Ich hasse es normalerweise schlechte Bewertungen abzugeben ohne mit den Verantwortlichen darüber gesprochen zu haben.
Wir wurden jedoch weder nach der Qualität des Essens noch unserer Zufriedenheit gefragt, nach dem Servieren hat sich einfach keiner mehr blicken lassen.
Auf der Endabrechnung war es dennoch sorgfältig aufgeführt.
Das Restaurant nebenan hat zwei Abende sehr sehr laute Musik bis in die Nacht hinein gespielt.

Tolle Lage, tolle Aussicht in die Bucht, nahezu direkt am Leuchtturm, familiär geführt, aufmerksam aber nicht aufdringlich, wunderschöner Aufenthaltsbereich direkt an der Bucht, hilfsbereites Personal, touristisch nicht überfüllt, zweckmäßiges Zimmer mit guter Klimaanlage und zusätzlichem Ventilator. Empfehlenswert 👍🏼

Pros:

Super emplacement avec une plage presque privée fréquentée uniquement par les locaux :) ! Parfait pour ceux qui souhaitent être loin de l’animation et des villes touristiques

Lit confortable, climatisation, très propre

Et le bar/restaurant est incroyable !!

Les hôtes sont extrêmement gentils :)! Vous vous sentez comme chez vous. Ils nous ont proposé de participer à une cérémonie organisée chez eux, nous n’avions malheureusement pas le temps car nous devions nous rendre à l’aéroport mais nous aurions adoré !!

Merci 😍

Cons:

Douche froide, c’était le seul point négatif :)
