Susanna and Tusharo (please excuse me if I’m misspelling the names :) were wonderful hosts. Welcoming and informative. It really felt like our own house. Spotless clean, equipped with everything a traveler needs, beautiful nature around, a garden well kept. Another great thing is the hosts really care about animals and Tusharo shared fascinating information about the connection local people share with the sea turtles (we got lucky and swam with them). The beach has some great surf. Would love to come back and stay more.

Weleges Place is a small hotel situated in the famous Hikkaduwa Beach Resort. The popular Hikkaduwa Marine Park where snorkeling among the coral reefs teeming with colorful fish & turtles is just 200 m away from the hotel.

Very clean, housekeeping every day if you want. Staff is really nice always offering to help. Bed was super comfortable, had a nice outside area and short distance walk from the main road just made it more perfect. We will go back.

The property features garden views and is 2.5 km from Seenigama Beach and 18 km from Galle International Cricket Stadium. There is free private parking and the property offers paid airport shuttle service.

The gardens are lovely- by day filled with chirping birds, and by night flitting fireflies and the sound of owls. The snorkelling trips offered by Bodie are amazing- they were much appreciated and enjoyed. The family goes out of their way to make you welcome and to make sure you are comfortable. Breakfast was delicious, plentiful and served with homemade jam. They provided me with a kettle so i could have water for tea and drinking. I carry a water bottle and thermos so i do not use plastic so much appreciated.

    We had the most amazing stay at 4 Seasons guesthouse. Lovely plentiful breakfasts. Great hosts & their son Bodhi went above & beyond to make our 2 day stay in Hikkaduwa so Special. He took us snorkelling with turtles, we went to the Tsunami museum & he even took us to the train station & made sure we were safe on the train for our trip to Bentota. This was all free of charge such a kind caring person. Would highly recommend staying at 4 Seasons guest house. We would definitely stay again when we next visit Hikkaduwa.

    The house was at a lovely quiet end of the beach with a short 10min walk along the beautiful beach to the main surf break and an easy walk to lovely bars and restaurants. The house was great with aircon and very comfy beds. Nuwan was a great host and we would highly recommend his property to others.

    Great location and value for money! The beach is extremely clean in front of the Villa and the Villa itself is quite beautiful. Had a wonderful time staying here. Nirasha, the property owner, helped us with transport from the airport and was a lovely host! The property is 10 mins from Hikkaduwa centre. Tuk tuks are easily available from the main road to the city centre.

    Great location for quiet introverts. Wonderful intelligent host family, who imperceptibly make your vacation perfect. Beautiful and tasty breakfast serving. Kitchen have all necessary equipment, Wi-Fi and A/C works good - just remember that you are on the island, and consume water and electricity responsibly. Considering that is 2nd line, you can hear a lot of natural and artificial sounds, like waves, buses, trains and sometimes crazy chipmunks on the roof =) But you'll be used to it in two days.

    Great location up the quieter side of the beach, next door to the left was a great beachside restaurant the best food by far. The beach was ideal for walking to get the steps in. Nice to get a bike and explore Hikaduwa. Thanks to great hosts they were very attentive.
