Pros:

De locatie is fijn, alles is op loopafstand
Basic kamer maar heeft alles wat je nodig hebt aangezien we overdag toch vooral op het strand waren.

Cons:

Nos dieron otra habitación porque el hotel esta en construcción. Todo esta lleno de polvo. Nos dio las llaves un niño, no vimos al dueño y no nos explicó nada de la zona como en otros hoteles.

Una estancia que recordaré por la amabilidad y humanidad recibida.
Pros:

La habitación era muy espaciosa, el lugar estaba muy limpio y muy bien situado, pero lo que más valoro fue, sin duda, el trato recibido. Durante mi estancia me puse enferma y, encontrándome sola en el país, tanto el propietario como su hijo se portaron conmigo excepcionalmente bien. Me acompañaron al hospital y me ofrecieron toda la ayuda que necesitaba, estando pendientes de mí en todo momento. Estoy enormemente agradecida de que, en unas circunstancias así y estando sola, me acogieran con tanta atención, amabilidad y humanidad. Sin duda, es algo que recordaré siempre.

Cons:

Todo fue muy positivo.

Séjour Exceptionnel !
Pros:

D’abord merci à notre hôte , d’une gentillesse incroyable, il nous a déposé a mirissa à la fin de notre séjour à un prix plus qu’abordable !
Nous avons pu profiter de plusieurs thés et cafés offerts durant notre séjour, toujours au petit soin pour nous. La chambre était super propre et grande.
La situation géographique était parfait puisque nous étions à coté de la plage et à 2 pas des restaurants et petits magasins.

Comme promis, si nous revenons à Hiriketiya, ça sera à cet endroit les yeux fermés ! ✨

A unique Sri Lankan experience with a wonderful family.

The family who run the property are truly special. They welcomed me as one of their own and I left feeling very grateful to have met them. The property itself is great, simple but comfortable and very clean. Great location too.
