We had a great stay in this hostel. We felt very welcomed since our arrival. Our room was big enough, clean and well equiped. The atmosphere with the other guests is very nice. We felt so good there that we decided to extend our stay, as Galle, Unawatuna and other cities are easy to reach by bus from Mirissa. We definitely recommend this place to stay in this city!

Magical, Comfy, Clean place with facilities of comfort: AC, Hot shower, Kitchen and nearby everythin

Cozy, comfy and clean guesthouse, and easy walking distance to everywhere ,beach , shops , bus station the guest house has total of 5 private rooms with clean private bathroom, and 1 room which is a hostel has 2 bed only, all rooms have AC (powerful one ) during our stay we had access to 2 kitchens, first floor kitchen well equipped for cooking big and small meals, then second kitchen small for making tea, coffee and small snacks, The chilling area has beautiful decorations with nature elements and has a hammock, also we found a nice collection of books with different languages, along with game cards such as Uno ..., little guitar 🎸 available for all guests for free. Kerry the owner of the place has welcomed me with her big smile and she was more than helpful with everything I needed during my stay, restaurants, places to go, best surfing spots, renting a bike, she is also a traveller a young and beautiful soul, thus she feels the pain of travellers and she does more than her best to offer all the support and help to her guests, I really loved to hang out with her like everyone else from the guests.

Loved staying here and would have stayed longer had I had the time to spare! Mirissa is lovely and the hostel was in a great location. The host Kerry is fab and I'm really glad I got to meet her and spend time with her! My room was really nice and big and the bathroom was lush. The common area was super cute and comfortable with lots of cushions and plants all around you. Great place to meet other people who were all really lovely and cured my lonelyness at travelling on my own!

Overall, I’d love to come again!

The host, Kerry, is amazing and very helpful. It was my second time in this hostel and I will come again! It is beautiful and I felt immediately comfortable! Theres a kitchen and a wonderful common „room“ to hang out.

Nothing! Everything can be talked about with Kerry and she’s eager to find a solution for all questions.

Best hostel in Mirissa

Loved everything about this hostel! Small and cosy dorm rooms, with comfortable beds, and a clean bathroom. There's air conditioning and a fan so it's never too hot. Kerry is super helpful. The vibe of the place is very friendly and chill and it's a great place to hang out and meet other travellers / guests. Definitely coming back here next time!
