“A Perfect priceless Stay”
+We were really looking forward to going to Hiriketiya Beach, we were looking for a place to stay without any hustle and bustle and we found this place, it was more than we expected, they welcomed us warmly, gave us fruit drinks as soon as we arrived and were very friendly. We enjoyed the delicious Sri Lankan food for breakfast. Even though the owners were with us, they were very considerate and made sure not to disturb us at any time and asked about our needs. The room we were in was air conditioned and the bathroom had heating facilities. The beach is easily accessible by foot from this place. We really enjoyed the Hiriketiya Beach, and they were very willing to give us free coffee or tea with biscuits or cheese in the afternoon. The owner's little daughter, Tiley, was very sweet and welcoming. We look forward to coming to Hiriketiya again and staying at this place. We would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

“A wonderful holiday”
+The accommodation is located on a quiet street, where you cannot hear the sounds of the road or music from restaurants in the evenings. The hosts are very hospitable and care about your comfort. There is a cozy veranda from where monkeys can sometimes be seen. This place is close to beaches and cafés, but it is very cozy and relaxing.

“Beautiful family, small room, clean, lovely outdoor area.”
+A compact room, all you needed. Nice outdoor area.
−Being a solo woman traveller I felt a bit isolated and didn’t feel comfortable walking home in the dark. There was also building work going on although a lot of places in Hiriketiya have building work around them

“Excellent homestay in beautiful Hiriketiya”
+Really cute homestay with a private patio/dining area which we loved. The hosts were very friendly and happily did our laundry for a good price. Excellent location being only a short walk to the beach, but very peaceful and quiet.
−No AC, only a fan - this was fine for me but my partner did struggle with the heat which kept him up at night.

“Highly recommend the Venora. Quiet, friendly, close to shops, bars etc but tucked away.”
+Tucked away, in a quiet road close to Hiriketiya Beach, this lovely, tiny, family run guest house is a real gem. Dileka & her family have created a friendly, comfortable room, with small private outside area. There’s no air con, but there’s a fan& barred window to open at night. Good mozzie net, tho saw v few! Good shower. Lovely Sri Lankan breakfast included & a fridge to use. Nearby (10 mins walk) are the beach side bars & there are a couple of great eating places nearby.( lemon grass & garlic cafe)
−Nothing

“Exceptional”
+Very clean. The outdoor area is very private, you have it all to yourself, so it's a nice place to relax. You have a fridge so you can keep some drinks or food cold. The family was accommodating and made my breakfast early so I could surf. The food was very tasty. Location is a close walk to the beach.

“The hospitality was impeccable and the stay was very enjoyable.”
+The private patio is beautiful and tranquil.
−While the location is a little way from the beach, it feels like you’re in the middle of the jungle.
