Boasting full-day security, this property also provides guests with a year-round outdoor pool. There is free private parking and the property features paid airport shuttle service. We had a truly lovely stay! The room was cozy, the food was delicious, and the pool was exactly what we needed to relax. But the highlight was definitely our amazing host – so kind, helpful and always smiling. He really made us feel at home, and went above and beyond with every little request. We’ll always remember his warm energy – thank you so much! Highly recommended to anyone looking for a welcoming and comfortable place to stay.

Offering a garden and garden view, Maritime Nest Cabanas is located in Tangalle, 400 metres from Tangalle Beach and 23 km from Hummanaya Blow Hole. This property offers access to a balcony, free private parking and free WiFi. Featuring family rooms, this property also provides guests with a year-round outdoor pool. This hotel was simply the best stay ever! From the moment we arrived, everything was beyond amazing. The hotel is brand new, spotlessly clean, and beautifully designed, with modern, stylish rooms and pristine bathrooms. We had a room right next to the pool (yes, there are actually two pools!), making it feel like a private paradise. One of the biggest highlights was the breakfast – hands down the best on Earth. Every single day, we were treated to a different, incredibly delicious, and rich selection of food, showcasing a mix of local and international flavors. We couldn’t get enough! The owners are absolutely wonderful. The host is super friendly, and his wife is the sweetest person ever. She even made us healthy cocktails and packed a homemade lunch for our long journey, which was such a thoughtful touch. Their kindness made the experience even more special. The location is peaceful and stunning, tucked away in a quiet, lush area. However, it’s very easy to reach the beautiful beaches of Tangalle with a quick tuk-tuk ride or by renting a scooter (which we did, and it was so much fun exploring the area!). Even though we skipped the touristy turtle-watching tours, we were lucky enough to see a baby turtle hatching and making its way to the sea while on a walk – such a magical moment! The bed was super comfy, the AC worked perfectly, and we loved relaxing on the private terrace attached to our room. Every single detail was carefully thought out to create an unforgettable experience. If you’re looking for an amazing stay with warm hospitality, the most incredible food, and a perfect location, look no further. I 100% recommend this place and would come back in a heartbeat!

At the homestay, all units are fitted with a terrace. Each unit comes with a kettle and a private bathroom with a bidet and free toiletries, while certain rooms will provide you with a fully equipped kitchen equipped with an oven. At the homestay, the units have bed linen and towels. The room was great and modern. A bit out of the centre, so quiet but you need to walk or take the bus/tuktuk to eat or go shopping. The host was very nice and helpful. We didnt had the chance to check the beach near by because of the weather but apparently its beautiful. Good wifi and aircon.
