Hotels in Whale Watching Mirissa, Mirissa

Our stay at this hotel was absolutely wonderful! The rooms were spotless and equipped with both A/C and a fan, ensuring comfort in every season. Given Sri Lanka’s electricity shortages, it's advisable to switch these off when leaving the room. The hotel itself is beautifully designed, and every member of the staff was exceptionally attentive and friendly, making us feel truly welcomed. The pool may not be large, but it’s perfect for a refreshing dip. There are six sun loungers, three or four of which are covered, providing a great spot to relax even if it rains. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a welcome drink and a shot, a thoughtful touch to start our stay on a high note. Breakfast offered a choice between Western and Sri Lankan dishes, with the local options changing daily. Each day, we received a complimentary 1-liter bottle of water per person and a coconut, which was thoughtfully brought to us by the pool without even needing to ask. Pool towels were provided, though you’ll need to bring your own beach towels if heading to the shore. On our last evening, the hotel treated us to a complimentary dinner—a gesture that truly showcases their exceptional service! The location is also fantastic. Both Secret Beach (which is becoming a bit touristy) and Mirissa Beach are just a 5-minute walk away. Whale-watching operators are also within a 5-minute stroll, and the main street is about 10 minutes on foot. We were delighted to see plenty of wildlife around the hotel, including peacocks, various birds, a snake, and even monkeys. Overall, our stay was fabulous! I highly recommend this hotel to anyone and would return for another memorable vacation.

The location is amazing; we tended to walk down the hill to Mirissa which is maybe a 15-20 minute walk and a tuk-tuk back as the hill is not something we wanted to attempt :). You are made to feel like nothing is too much trouble and everything was absolute on point and as our first accommodation in Sri Lanka we didn’t know what to expect but it far exceeded all expectations! Amazing *****

The host was great, very friendly and helpful. I was in the big room with the kitchen which allowed me to make food for myself and save money. It was clean and had lots of light and a fridge. I loved the wildlife around and its very close to a few well rated bars and restaurants and 1mon from the beach. I really enjoyed my stay.

For the prize it was perfect. The staff and manager were extremely helpful. And the location is amazing

The deluxe double room was amazing I could hardly believe the value for money.

Best location in Mirissa you can find! If you dont like to stay in the middle of the touristic town, and love a more private place with a view. Then you will love the London Villa. The location and the view are stunning, and the villa is just 3 minutes walk from "secret beach", which is a true gem of a beach. The villa is a few minutes uphill, but with a scooter or tuktuk easy to reach. And you won't feel like you are in a touristic busy place at all. The villas location is calm and serene. The place is brand new, and only has 2 rooms, which are simple but clean and functional. The owner is amazing and super helpful to show you places, help you get around, find you the best local food, etc. he is a wonderful and proud host. Definitely recommend this place!

The host was really friendly and welcoming. To anyone looking for a place to stay - this is it. A very pleasing place to stay in. One added advantage is that this place is just 100 meters away from the whale watching site. And also this property can access the beach . (100% recommended)

The room is very modest and simple, but you won’t need more than that! There’s a cute balcony with a table, where I enjoyed both an amazing dinner cooked by the mum and the wife of Chanaka and the breakfast. I loved being slightly outside Mirissa centre and the perks of being on a tree house are that you hear birds in the night and early morning instead of cars!

Brave Resort was excellent, close enough to the beach and food, but far enough that it was quiet and peaceful. Rangana and his wife were super accommodating and helpful, arranging tuktuks, snorkel trips, and even helped us with our souvenir shopping. Breakfast was really good as well. We would definitely stay again!

Great buffet for breakfast and dinner. Room was very big and comfortable with sea view. They have sunbeds in price, so you can lie on beach.
