This is a great stay if you are visiting Jaffna! Both Sudak and Mathu are really nice guys who speak English very good as well. They can tell you a lot about any Sri Lankan things you want to know and arranged a lot of stuff we requested; breakfast, diner, scooter renting, sending a package over to Holland, a TukTuk when we needed one really early in the morning (we did not want to risk PickMe not being available, we were visiting a wedding). The rooms are clean and have all facilities you need. Nice addition is they have a swimming pool which is really nice on hot Sri Lankan days. Definitely recommend this place! 👌

We loved the location, with its easy walk to the temple and proximity to town. However, the highlight of our stay was undoubtedly Mr. Haran's exceptional hospitality. It was truly like visiting relatives.

Excellent Hospitality!! Iresha & Dishtha made our stay more lovable… kudos to whole team for maintaining the property to its best!!! We had a wonderful experience at The Thinnai Hotel.

The property is serene and beautifully maintained, offering a perfect blend of traditional charm and modern comfort. The restaurant served amazing tasty food! Worth every $!!

The huts right on the coast of Mandaitivu were a dream! The huts were decorated with great attention to detail, equipped with everything you need, and the restaurant, hammocks and volleyball net made the stay perfect. The staff was very helpful and very friendly - you can feel their warmth. The dinner and breakfast were delicious. If you enjoy the peace and quiet and to cool off with the breeze, this is the perfect place to be.
