Just in the second row behind the beach front, we had calm and restful nights in our lovely hut just 5 minutes from the vibrant beach. We can definitely recommend these Cabanas!

Very beautiful bungalow, the room is big, clean and new. There is a big garden very well cared for. Breakfast and dinner are tasty, and they have been served on the tables in the garden which was very nice and cozy. There is a beach immediately on the left, near a cemetery, empty, and very beautiful. They have their own sunbeds for the guests. It was really beautiful to see the sunset and sunrise from there. For the next visitors: if you come to these beautiful parts, unfortunately the dogs situation in Trincomalee is quite sad. Please, bring some food with you. Next to the hotel there are two sweet dogs that would love some cuddles and food.

Owner and his family are just adorable family, hospitable, genuinely interested in their guests and their needs! The owner, who is the chef of the embedded small restaurant, prepared for us three meals of a barracuda I've caught. It was the most scrumptious barracuda we've ever eaten in our lives! Sri Lankan breakfast was great, too! Even if it is a small hotel, there was someone their to take care of guests 24/7. We had a couple of very nice conversation and discussions with the owner! Beach is very near! You can see fishermen nets pulled out a couple of times a day. A couple of small shops and a barber are only some 150 - 200 m away, bigger shops and a number of stalls only some 10 minutes walk away.

Location was perfect (close to beach and amazing restaurants), staff were incredibly helpful, whole place was super clean and exceptional value for money. All quite basic, but it had everything we needed. The shared kitchen and fridge is also very useful… all in all a great place for a beach holiday!

    The location next to the beach was ideal plus we enjoyed using their beachside restaurant and bar. The staff couldn’t have been more helpful and even arranged a birthday cake for my daughter’s birthday. Would highly recommend staying here if you can get a room (as I think they book up quickly).

    We had a wonderful one-night stay at this hotel. The white sandy beach is just a short 100m walk away, making it an ideal location. The rooms were very clean and decent, and the WiFi was super fast, perfect for staying connected. There are plenty of good restaurants nearby, adding to the convenience. Overall, a great place to stay at a reasonable price.

    Highlight of the hotel for me was the pool. It was a great size and very clean and well maintained. The hotel overall was spotless and the staff did everything to make our stay comfortable and memorable. The location was great for access to the beach and the best of the beachfront restaurants. Well worth a visit

    Location to the beach was brilliant, about a 30 minute stroll to uppuveli beach, where nice cheap restaurants can be found for both lunch and dinner. The view from the balcony over the sea is wonderful. The rooms were very clean and the bed was very comfortable. The staff were very friendly and helpful when planning excursions such as whale watching and Pigeon Island. They also organise tuk tuks where you get the most fantastic driver in Kumar, who will chat to you and offer to take you whenever you want to go (even at 5am).
