Where do I even begin? This might be a long post 🙂 This was hands down one of the best places my wife and I have ever stayed at—and we’ve traveled quite a lot. I had planned a 5-day trip to Sri Lanka for my wife’s birthday, with the idea of staying here for 2 nights and then moving to Colombo for the rest. But we ended up staying here for 4 nights straight, simply because it was that blissful. I can’t point to just one reason—we loved everything. Here are a few highlights: 1. The Location Perched on the highest point in Mirissa, this place offers the best view in town. You don’t need to go anywhere else for the sunset—just grab a drink, head up to their terrace, and enjoy. Plus, it’s only a 5-minute walk to Mirissa Beach. 2. The Food Unlike other hotels, there are no standard buffets here. Instead, a thoughtfully curated menu of Sri Lankan and European dishes. The food was absolutely outstanding—simple, fresh, and delicious. I’m a vegetarian, while my wife eats chicken, and both of us loved every meal. 3. The Rooms & Facilities We stayed in a double room—spacious, spotless, and perfect. The property has two swimming pools, one at the top with breathtaking views. What stood out was how well-maintained they were, with little to no chlorine, so no itchy eyes—such a thoughtful detail. 4. The Hospitality One word: Finest. From the receptionist to the GM to the owner, every single person radiated warmth and positivity. When I had an issue with my Forex card, they went out of their way to help. They surprised my wife with a birthday cake and even gifted us souvenirs. Honestly, they made us feel like family. “It felt like home away from home.” We’re already planning to return, this time with more family, just to experience it all over again.

Incredible hotel - everything is beautifully designed and very comfortable. Thoughtful and caring customer service and amazing food at the hotel. There are only 9 rooms at this property, so the care feels very personal and staff are there 24/7. The location is very close to secret beach which is one of the best beaches in Mirissa. The pool is also very nice and enjoyable views around the property. Highly recommend!

Fabulous boutique hotel with a great location right on the beach. Beautiful rooms , lovely pool and great staff everyone made our stay magical. Shout out to Roshan the chef, amazing food from breakfast to the dinners. We only had dinner once but they went out of the way to make sure as vegetarians we were well taken care of. Nihal the manager also made sure our stay was just perfect.

    Very clean and modern hostel. Offers a big common area with a nice pool and ping pong table. Beds are comfortable and offer privacy. Breakfast consists of different fruits with oats, eggs or hoppers and is a welcomed variation to dhal curry. Service was good (information and scooter rental) but probably due to low occupancy at our time the reception time was limited.

    Everything was perfect! Lolo and Supun are amazing hosts who help with everything. Breakfast was tasty and the kitchen was fully equipped to cook meals by ourselves as well. The location was ideal and close to both Madiha and Polhena beaches. The environment was really quiet at night. And on top of all were the pool with really warm water and long enough for proper swimming, and the rooftop which had amazing view to all directions and was great to share some beers at night

    Forget generic resorts! Lolo & Supun's beach haven is pure Sri Lankan magic. Steps from turquoise waves, wake to epic breakfasts & explore coral reefs with Supun. Lolo crafts your day trips, from hidden spots to whale whispers. Poolside sunsets & starlit chats seal the deal. Paradise found, we will definitely come back!

    The place was perfect for me. Staff were all very welcoming and friendly and my room was spotless. They’ve done a great job building the place and the skatepark next door. Lots of spaces to chill with friends or have some peace and quiet alone, was nice to be able to have a swim as well. Breakfast was really good, passion fruit jam blew my mind!
