Company information

We are a Sri Lankan Scottish couple who love to share the wonders of our seaside village and Sri Lanka with others. Indika's family started the guesthouse over 30 years ago and we have slowly expanded it to what it is today. Having spent his whole life in Madiha Indika has a wealth of local knowledge on the area, especially the ocean as he is a trained PADI diving instructor. Fiona first came to Sri Lanka in 2003 as part of a volunteer program working in children's homes for 6 months. She returned every year and after getting married in 2013 joined the Beach Inns family. We enjoying meeting people and helping make your holiday the best it can be.
