Probably the best value for the money we got in Sri Lanka. The property is brand new, the rooms look like in a good 4+ star hotel (photos on the site don’t lie). Only a pool is missing, but there wasn’t much of a problem as the Nilaveli beach is only 5 minutes away on foot. The staff is super helpful and nice, the manager is always smiley!

A new hotel, opened six months ago. The rooms are very spacious, independent cottages, beautifully decorated, and the beds are super comfortable. The infinity pool is right on the beach, which is very flat, perfect for swimming in the sea. As for the buffet, both for breakfast and for lunch at the hotel if you're so inclined, it's spectacular, very varied, and of high quality (I counted more than 30 different desserts!). Special mention should be made of the level of service, superior to many 5-star hotels I've stayed at, both in Europe and Asia: room cleaning, tea and coffee service, twice-daily towel and amenities change, fast and impeccable room service, etc. And of course, the attention and friendliness of all the staff is extraordinary. In short, a truly five-star hotel with a quality/price ratio that's hard to beat.

I am writing this review out of the pure joy I have revived by staying this place. This is a newly opened Cabana style hotel situated right next to the Trincomalee beach (2 min walking). The cabana has all amenities including WiFi, a nice place to sit outside every room which is perfect to sit back, relax and have a coffee/tea. It was a great convenience to have our tea bags and coffee pouches in the room along with water and a kettle so we could prepare ourselves a cup of coffee anytime we liked. The people who run the Cabana are incredibly nice and very helpful and are always available to help out. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a great place to stay near the beach at a great price!

We were their first guests. The staff is super friendly and they always wanted to help us with arranging a snorkeling tour or other plans. The rooms are very clean and the bathroom too ! They have a very nice balcony for chilling that they will convert to a dining area later. I would definitely recommend this place !!

    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.

    The owner was very thoughtful and helpful from the beginning. He arranged both whale and dolphin watching, as well as snorkeling at Pigeon Island, all for a very good price. The breakfast is excellent too, and you can try authentic Sri Lankan food. Their coconut hoppers were the best we had during our trip. The location is also great: it’s on a main road, but quiet at night. You can easily take a tuk-tuk to Trincomalee or to a nice beach area near Fernando's Bar. Definitely a family-style place where you’ll feel at home.

    This is a lovely little hotel right on the beach front on Trincomalee with lovely little huts to chill out in during the day. It’s rustic and charming and the staff (especially Elil) are very kind, helpful and hospitable. We loved the views and being so close to the ocean and found our stay very comfortable. It’s got an absolutely incredible location.

    It was so nice to stay there. The distance between the beach and my room was about 1 1/2 minutes walk! The best thing was I could go back even at midnight because it was 150 meters walk! The hotel area is so safe, the staff is very nice and helpful and you can talk with them if you want. It is the best area in Trincomalee to sleep in!
