Pros:

Local hotel run by lovely family. Room was spacious with walk in shower. Breakfast was breads, jam/relish and omelet with fresh fruit juice and coffee. Patchy wifi provided welcome relief from internet. Short walk to beach

A wonderful stay with warm family hospitality.
Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at Hotel Tobiko. This family-owned hotel made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. The family is incredibly kind, friendly, and always willing to help with anything we needed.

Our room was spacious, very clean, and comfortable, making it easy to relax after a day of exploring. The warm hospitality and personal attention truly made our stay special.

If you're looking for a peaceful place with excellent service and genuine family hospitality, I highly recommend Hotel Tobiko. We would happily stay here again!

Fantastický pobyt
Pros:

Ďakujem Jacobovi a jeho rodine za starostlivosť, super jedlo, útulnú a čistú izbu.
Sú to neskutočne milí ľudia a cítila som sa tu ako doma.
Poloha je ideálna, len na skok od pláže Uppuveli 🌴
Vybrala by som si TOBIKO opäť 👌

Prajem veľa spokojných hostí a všetko dobré 🤍

Pros:

De mensen zijn heel vriendelijk en zorgen voor een fijn verblijf. Het ontbijt was heel lekker. Ze hebben een hondje, daar speelden onze kinderen heel veel mee. De kamers zijn prima. Het is dichtbij het strand. We zagen daar de locals vis binnen halen, leuk om te zien. Iets verder van het centrum, maar met tuktuk goed te doen. Wij hebben hier 3 fijne nachten gehad.

Pros:

Velmi milý pan majitel, který nás zavezl kamkoliv jsme chtěli. Pomohl nám zařídit výlet za delfíny a šnorchlováním přes jeho kamaráda. Jeho paní nám uvařila výbornou večeři. Snídaně byla chutná a bohatá. Naproti hotelu prodávali pivo, které si člověk mohl odnést na pláž a vychutnávat šumění oceánu. Kdybych měla cestu kolem vrátila bych se :-)

We enjoyed our stay, felt welcomed, cared for, slept well and felt at home. Thank you very much!
Pros:

Perfect for our needs as we arrived by night train from Colombo to meet friends the following days. Our hosts were very welcoming, kind and attended to all our needs whenever we asked. They waited for us to return “home” in the evening and it really did feel like home away from home. We felt very safe and cared for.The value for money was extraordinarily good.

Great people, perfect location, and they even have a beautiful dog that adds to the welcoming atmosphere!
Pros:

I had a fantastic stay at this hotel. The value for money is outstanding.

The hosts were incredibly welcoming and made me feel right at home from arrival. They were genuinely friendly, helpful with recommendations, and went above and beyond to ensure my comfort throughout my stay.

The breakfast was delicious with a great variety of freshly prepared options. Everything was high quality and it was the perfect way to start each day.
Between the great value, exceptional hosts, and outstanding breakfast, I highly recommend this hotel and would definitely return and it’s right next to a beach.
