Best guest house I stayed at in Sri Lanka so far. Probably the best place to stay in Trincomalee. Excellent value. The whole place is incredibly clean, tidy and hygienic. 10 second walk to a beautiful beach. The room is spacious enough to practice yoga/ exercise. The family owners are very kind, relaxed and accommodating. I felt really good here and wish I could have stayed longer. Rent your moto here, I didn’t even ask the price because I instantly trusted the owner when I met him and was given a fair rate when I checked out. I would come back here without a doubt. 100% book this place if you come to trincomalee.

Had a lovely time with family and friends at the Nature Beach Huts. I saw all the reviews and booked this place and all the reviews were actually true. The beautiful coral beach is in walking distance. I highly recommend this place for nature lovers and for the people going on vacation with friends/family to have some quality time. Staff were really friendly and gave us a lot of information on places to visit.

We had the best experience here because the owner is absolutely lovely! He is so nice, can arrange everthing for you and he is an amazing cook! Every morning we had the Sri Lankan breakfast because this was so delicious and every evening we also ate at the hotel because we loved the food the owner made for us! Tip: you should ask for the ‘Kothu Roti’, he makes this so good!

Pleasant Park Holiday Inn was exactly that - pleasant! The room was even better than in the pictures and I was surprised with the cleanliness of it. The staff was very approachable and not obtrusive. The owner was very fun to talk to as he has interesting stories from all over the world. I would gladly recommend this stay!

So pleased to have stumbled on to this place. It's newly set up, quiet and yet right in the midst of things. Only a short walk to the beach and many great eating places so close by and yet such a relaxing peaceful place. A welcoming family who are very helpful in organising anything you need. The place is very clean, rooms and bathrooms well thought out, great aircon, good soundproofing. What I particularly liked was the sitting area outside the rooms open to the sun but well fanned and super comfy sofas. The many plants and pictures add the relaxing atmosphere. There is also tea and coffee making facilities in this space. This place is a great find, suits young and older couples well. Sunbreeze deserves every success.

    Nice hotel, clean, comfortable, great location - practically on the beach. The owner is a great host, super helpful and responsive on WhatsApp. Scooter rental available at the property. On our last evening we took a cooking class with the owners wife which was great. The food was tasty. Very good price as well. The owner also kindly arranged a taxi back to Negombo for us for an unbeatable price. Recommended.
