“Have added this spot to one of my favourite places in my travels”

The highlight of this place is its seclusion and Sanjeev’s genuine hospitality. I wanted the last 24 hours in Sri Lanka to be quiet and peaceful, and that’s exactly what I got. I spent a good portion of that time chatting with Sanjeev about life, farming, rice, palmyra, and politics. He cared about every detail of my stay, not like some guest houses that treat guests as captured customers, but as a host who truly wants his guests to enjoy. If you meet anyone on the small holding, make sure you talk to them – every person I met was special, from the little girl Sanjeev tutors to his best friend who wanted to do his accounts in the peace of the grounds, to the sweet tuktuk driver from the same village. Muppet accidentally booked my taxi for the wrong day, but Sanjeev rescued me and found a local willing to take on the same fare for a 10‑hour round‑trip drive. The place is spotlessly clean, but the interior of the building might look a little tatty for some. Expect a basic guest house with good water pressure and air‑con, but not a five‑star resort. The beach has some plastic, but it’s public/gov property and, compared to the beach near Trinco where I stayed, this one was absolutely spotless.

“Ráj na zemi 🏝️”

A climate‑controlled paradise on earth with access to an almost private beach. No one else was there—just us, the house, a small kitchen, and everything in a pure paradise away from tourism. The main class of restaurants is within a 5‑minute TukTuk ride. All possible excursions, not just to Pigeon Island but also to other beautiful snorkeling spots, a crocodile “farm”, a deer farm, a historic site, and temples… We had planned to stay one night, stayed three, and now we know that if we visit Sri Lanka again, we will definitely return here and explore other beaches (we stayed only on ours because it was a paradise on earth and no one else was there). Thank you. The accommodation is 10/10. The only improvement could be that every morning you need to pick up the garbage left by rooks and other birds that spread across the yard and the beach in front of the house; it takes a few minutes. But that’s just nature.

Excellent location right on the sea, a Spartan cottage with a private bathroom and an outdoor kitchen, equipped with all necessary services, and there’s also an outdoor shower where you can cool off directly on the beach and lovely huts to lie on facing the sea. The owner is super helpful and kind, always ready to help and try to satisfy every request. One of the most beautiful people I have ever met.

A wild beach all to yourselves! We spent three nights here and would gladly stay again! If you’re looking for a quiet spot, run by very kind people, 5 minutes by TukTuk from Trinco’s center, you’ve found your place! The resort owner can prepare breakfast and even a fish barbecue on the beach! Otherwise there are three nearby resorts where you can eat without going to town. A couple of mini‑markets are within walking distance for crackers, biscuits, and fruit. The room is simple but well cared for, and beach towels are provided. The building was an old English radio base and has kept the aesthetic with small red bricks, very nice! There is definitely hot water in the bathroom (though, as someone else wrote, it’s really not necessary) and a very convenient outdoor shower after the bath. A line for hanging swimsuits and towels and a beautiful patio. Leaving the room and going straight to swim in a deserted beach, then having breakfast with your feet in the sand, was the best way to finish our trip in Sri Lanka. I don’t think this wonderful beach will stay a secret for much longer, take advantage of it!!!
