Located within 500 metres of Mirissa Beach and 34 km of Galle International Cricket Stadium, Mimoza Mirissa provides rooms with air conditioning and a private bathroom in Mirissa. This bed and breakfast features a rooftop pool, a garden and free private parking. The accommodation features airport transfers, while a bicycle rental service is also available. Our stay at this hotel was absolutely wonderful! The rooms were spotless and equipped with both A/C and a fan, ensuring comfort in every season. Given Sri Lanka’s electricity shortages, it's advisable to switch these off when leaving the room. The hotel itself is beautifully designed, and every member of the staff was exceptionally attentive and friendly, making us feel truly welcomed. The pool may not be large, but it’s perfect for a refreshing dip. There are six sun loungers, three or four of which are covered, providing a great spot to relax even if it rains. Upon arrival, we were greeted with a welcome drink and a shot, a thoughtful touch to start our stay on a high note. Breakfast offered a choice between Western and Sri Lankan dishes, with the local options changing daily. Each day, we received a complimentary 1-liter bottle of water per person and a coconut, which was thoughtfully brought to us by the pool without even needing to ask. Pool towels were provided, though you’ll need to bring your own beach towels if heading to the shore. On our last evening, the hotel treated us to a complimentary dinner—a gesture that truly showcases their exceptional service! The location is also fantastic. Both Secret Beach (which is becoming a bit touristy) and Mirissa Beach are just a 5-minute walk away. Whale-watching operators are also within a 5-minute stroll, and the main street is about 10 minutes on foot. We were delighted to see plenty of wildlife around the hotel, including peacocks, various birds, a snake, and even monkeys. Overall, our stay was fabulous! I highly recommend this hotel to anyone and would return for another memorable vacation.
