We just checked out and my son is asking when to return back. Simply one of the best hotels in Srilanka that we have been to so far. Ronson; Reception Manager is very welcoming and fretted us with lots of positive vibes, Pandulla the receptionist is extremely welcoming and showed us the ground and the room. Room is extremely spacious, well stocked with all what we wanted including robes and flip flops, very clean and we had a private pool which again was good sized and clean. We had dinner and breakfast at the property, Good selection and well planned tasty menu options. Prashanth from food and Beverage was very approachable friendly helpful and looked after us well. Praveen one of the checkout staff was again extremely helpful during checkout with heavy bags.

Wonderful stay – felt like home! I had a lovely, clean room with a fan and felt comfortable right away. The owner is incredibly kind, always available, super helpful and truly dedicated – you can tell he really cares about his guests. I felt well looked after and almost like at home. There’s also a small kitchen with everything you need, which was very convenient. I asked about renting a scooter and he organized one for me at a great price and even had it delivered straight to the hotel – that saved me time and transport costs. The location is great too, and I liked it so much that I ended up extending my stay by another night. Highly recommended – I would definitely come back!

It was exactly what I expected and exactly what I wanted, something unique and different. A tropical beach garden vibe. There are only 5 units and so it was quiet. An older property that has been carefully renovated. The common area has a "beachcomber" feel, funky in a good way, with lots of plants and palms everywhere. Each unit has a covered terrace with chairs and a low table and is surrounded in greenery. I really liked the fact that the rooms are quirky and fun and refreshingly different from most accommodation. Only 1 small window in each unit but Elena has cleverly got around this by painting the walls bright white with colourful murals and linens and excellent lighting which made the whole room light and bright and full of colour. New floor tiles. The room had this unique fresh feel. There was ample furniture in the room to put things on. Fresh linens and plenty of towels. Strong fan and good A/C. The big bathroom had been modernised, and had both a cool shower and a hot shower with instant hot water and good water pressure. There was a small unit of shelves to put bathroom things on. Very clean. There is a small above ground plunge pool but it wasn't operating when I was there. But that doesn't matter at all as the ocean is only a stone's throw away. Plenty of parking for my motorbike. The property is safe & secure. Excellent location as it's a very short stroll to Upuvelli beach which is a wide beach with clean sand and a few cafes and restaurants. The beach slopes gently into the water, stays shallow for a little distance, and only had low waves which makes it ideal for families to swim in. Elena is very helpful and arranged snorkeling and an exceptional Ayurvedic massage, both at a discount. The property is quiet. I found the other guests friendly and Elena has created a happy, social place. No parties, no karaoke and so you can really relax here. It is an excellent price considering its proximity to the beach.

This location was absolutely beautiful.

This location was absolutely beautiful. There's lots to see and do and 3 nights wasn't enough to fully enjoy the setting. Yes you can spend time at the beach and go snorkeling, but you can also visit the Thiruskoneswaram temple and eat delicious food on Sarvodaya Road. We highly recommend Rice 'n' Curry Restaurant. As well as The White House for Accommodation and Rangan Snorkeling

Trincomalee is a beautiful beach town, the beaches are amazing, lots of cultural things to do if you want, as well as lots of relaxation. Some great restaurants on the beach and in the town. The only draw back is it takes quite along time to get to (depending on where you are coming from) but that is the same across most of Sri Lanka

We absolutely love this area, by far one of the best places in Sri Lanka. After travelling around the island, we decided just to completely chill and not check out the other beaches. We will definitely go back again and check out a few of the other beaches along that coastline. Food is fantastic and the people are very friendly! When we read up about the island, they said that this was the less developed area, but as far as I could see it was the same as most other places. Definitely has everything you need and one of the best places to completely unwind.

I went to Trincomalee for a family occasion, so I didnt have so much time to explore the area. I found a lovely beach not far away from J7 Villaj Resort and I got the imperssion, there are not so many tourist in the area. There is a lot of activities around Trincomalee, if you like wateractivities, you find them on internet, what to do in Trincomalee...... There are local restaurants serving fresh seafood - from sea daily. Its easy to find a tuktuk or use the app pickme (works in all Sri Lanka). I wish I had more time in Trincomalee after I found the beach, but for sure I will go back and stay there for a longer period. Just take the night train from Colombo (from 11 Eur - first class) or reverse. Its a good place to relax and finish your trip after exploring historical places Sri Lanka.

I wanted to go to Trincomalee for personal reasons but also because the beach and the hotel looked good. If you want only a beach holiday, then it’s great but if you want to sightsee, you might enjoy central Sri Lanka a bit more. We loved the chance to see a local community. We enjoyed the hotel, so could have stayed a night or two longer but we like Sri Lanka for its rich history and sight seeing opportunities too.

Right next to the beach, which was much appreciated relaxation for us after a long trip of sight-seeing. The accommodation itself has 4 rooms, which gave the place a private and quiet vibe to chill and relax. A very clean and comfortable place with great air-conditioning, which made a massive difference against the heat and humid of Trincomalee. The owner was especially commendable, giving us honest guidance regarding diving facilities and places to see in Trincomalee/Nilaveli.

The vibe at this cabana was really nice! Also the host and all the staff was very friendly and helped out with anything we needed (scooter rent, snorkeling trip etc). Our AC was not real working in the first room but it was no problem to change the room. The host took care of the broken AC immediately. The Sri Lankan breakfast was delicious and a lot! We liked the place as it was close to Trincomalee city as well as uppuveli + nilaveli. We def recommend this stay!
