The units at the guest house feature private entrance and soundproofing so guests can enjoy a peaceful stay. Each unit is fitted with a kettle and a private bathroom with a bidet and free toiletries, while some rooms have a fully equipped kitchenette fitted with an oven. At the guest house, all units include bed linen and towels.

The rooms were very clean and tidy. The view and location are exceptional. It's directly at the beach and there are palm trees right at the property. Also, Viraj offered to prepare breakfast for us. You should definitely go with the Sri Lankan style breakfast. Each day we got something different (eg. egg hoppers, string hoppers, dal, some kind of coconut milk rice and more). And a fresh fruit platter was part of it each day. Viraj and his family are very kind and helpful people. They will make your stay unforgettable.

Popular points of interest near the guest house include Hikkaduwa Beach, Hikkaduwa Coral Reef and Hikkaduwa Bus Stand. The nearest airport is Koggala, 30 km from Alvas house, and the property offers a paid airport shuttle service.

Susanna and Tusharo (please excuse me if I’m misspelling the names :) were wonderful hosts. Welcoming and informative. It really felt like our own house. Spotless clean, equipped with everything a traveler needs, beautiful nature around, a garden well kept. Another great thing is the hosts really care about animals and Tusharo shared fascinating information about the connection local people share with the sea turtles (we got lucky and swam with them). The beach has some great surf. Would love to come back and stay more.

Boasting pool views, Villa Kaya Guest House features accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, a garden and a terrace, around 500 metres from Hikkaduwa Beach. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking and free WiFi. Outdoor dining is also possible at the guest house.

I cannot recommend this place enough! I had such a great stay here. The property is beautiful: the rooms are cute, comfortable, and clean. The staff is incredibly welcoming and friendly. Breakfast is delicious and included tea or coffee, fresh juice, yogurt, fresh fruit, eggs your way, and toast with butter and jam. The pool is clean and, somehow, despite the heat, the water remains refreshing. The location is in a quiet place (aside from a train track but the trains only last a few seconds and did not affect my stay at all), yet near to restaurants and bars and salons and tour agencies and souvenir shops. Amazing place! Would definitely stay again!

Certain units in the guest house have private entrance and are equipped with desk and wardrobe. A balcony with sea view, a satellite flat-screen TV and air conditioning are featured in some units. At the guest house, some units are fitted with a kettle and fruits.

The hotel was very very clean, the rooms, the bathroom and the common space. Also, i recommend to try breakfast because they has some nice local food cooked ans served for you (you order one day before, no buffet) which was interesting, fresh and tasty. (I loved your pancakes with coconut). The hotel is next to the turtle beach and all the shops, restaurants etc. We rent a tuktuk and they offered us a parking place right next to the hotel.

At the guest house, units come with a desk. The units include a kettle, a private bathroom and free WiFi, while selected rooms also offer a terrace and some have sea views. At the guest house, all units have bed linen and towels.

It is a perfect and quiet place which is not so crowded as the first line. The hotel has a very nice midsize pool and also space to practice yoga or any sport. Our cabana was very good equipped and clean, it has everything needed. Also the good thing is that it is quite at night so you can rest very well there. Highly recommended and we will come again for sure!

Weleges Place is a small hotel situated in the famous Hikkaduwa Beach Resort. The popular Hikkaduwa Marine Park where snorkeling among the coral reefs teeming with colorful fish & turtles is just 200 m away from the hotel.

Excellent rooms that were very well maintained. The daily cleaning was a great bonus after coming and going from the beach and being sandy. The staff were excellent too, always friendly and helpful.

    Great Location, Great View from the seaview rooms, Decent free sunbeds on the beach and clean beach towels provided, Breakfast was an added bonus, not western style but they happily made you great toast if you asked. and you had fresh fruit tea coffee juice as well as sri lankan breakfast offerings. Drinks also where slightly cheaper than the surrounding beach bars

    We had the most amazing stay at 4 Seasons guesthouse. Lovely plentiful breakfasts. Great hosts & their son Bodhi went above & beyond to make our 2 day stay in Hikkaduwa so Special. He took us snorkelling with turtles, we went to the Tsunami museum & he even took us to the train station & made sure we were safe on the train for our trip to Bentota. This was all free of charge such a kind caring person. Would highly recommend staying at 4 Seasons guest house. We would definitely stay again when we next visit Hikkaduwa.

    The house was at a lovely quiet end of the beach with a short 10min walk along the beautiful beach to the main surf break and an easy walk to lovely bars and restaurants. The house was great with aircon and very comfy beds. Nuwan was a great host and we would highly recommend his property to others.

    Great location and value for money! The beach is extremely clean in front of the Villa and the Villa itself is quite beautiful. Had a wonderful time staying here. Nirasha, the property owner, helped us with transport from the airport and was a lovely host! The property is 10 mins from Hikkaduwa centre. Tuk tuks are easily available from the main road to the city centre.

    Great location up the quieter side of the beach, next door to the left was a great beachside restaurant the best food by far. The beach was ideal for walking to get the steps in. Nice to get a bike and explore Hikaduwa. Thanks to great hosts they were very attentive.
