A lovely warm welcome from the hosts to their pretty little garden with a gate straight on to a wide expanse of golden and almost empty beach. The food is Sri Lankan buffet style and beer is available. Toasted sandwiches and soft drinks are also available. The breakfast is very good. The rooms are clean with attached bath, although not...

We stopped in this place for 1 night, travelling from Colombo to Unawatuna, wishing to visit the Kosgoda turtle hatcheries. The friendly owners proved to be among the most hospitable people we came across in Sri Lanka and their beach cottage is just amazing. Its secluded part of the beach allows you to enjoy the sea almost isolated - also... More

Long Beach Cottage has 5 double rooms all facing the sea. I stayed upstairs in the first room with a huge mosquito net and long beds, where I could comfortably stretch out my legs. I met some other travelers too and we discussed our future routes. The hosts were very helpful with information about the country and the different possibilities... More

A small, excellent value, family run Guest House on a beautiful beach in Induruwa. We spent our last five days in Sri Lanka relaxing in this idyllic little place run by Pincho and Hanni. The neach location is superb and food is also a highlight; evening meals of Sri Lankan origin were always available and there are other menu options... More

During our stay we found always very welcomed by the owners and staff. Although the rooms could receive a little updating, they offer everything you need and can expect at this price. The only downside was, as mentioned by other visitors, that it is located quite close to the main road and having an upstairs room, the night ends at... More

We have stayed at Long Beach Cottage 6 times for extended stopovers since 1996. On each occasion we meet up with other friendly residents, some of whom have been using the guest house for 25 years and more. Nothing is too much trouble for the owners, they will organise anything you wish, they serve excellent meals but will always cook... More

Having travelled all around Sri Lanka , I finally found my spot to relax at Long Beach Cottage in Induruwa. This small guesthouse was really great comparing with some of the other posh ,and expensive places. You really get value for your money. Besides, the hosts, a German-Sri Lankan couple, gave me lots of valuable information, took me along in... More

My driver stopped at the gates . I had enquired about this place a few weeks earlier. We peared through the gates at what appeared to be a place in the process of dereliction. several yapping dachsunds growled at the doorbell and a scruffy looking person approached the gate. At this point my driver said we should leave! Next door... More
