I stayed during the off season and it was very, very quiet. I took a room with a fan which was absolutely fine. The fan was a little noisy and the room a little warm but I couldn't complain for the price and location. What is a real treat though is the service. Nothing is a problem, I was treated... More

I stayed at Neela's Guesthouse for just under a fortnight, in March 2013, with my girlfriend. My girlfriend booked our stay via the website and I'm told the experience was effortless, communication polite and all that. We also organised a transfer from the airport via Chamara, which was comfortable, air-conditioned and driven by an enthusiastic local guide (Chamindra) who shared... More

I went here at the end of the season so Hikka was less busy than usual. The staff did everything to make me feel welcome and i was very impressed by the clean rooms and pretty veranda. The food was good and the breakfast reasonable (although like most places in SL the coffeee could ahave been a little stronger).

I have been to Hikkaduwa 5 times now and will return again. Neela's is always a regular destination for me at breakfast, dinner or tea. The menu is varied and everything is cooked to a very high standard. In particular try the tiger prawns! The rooms are beautiful. I couldn't advocate the place more.

We put off booking our room until the day before because of lack of internet on a remote island, we were only able to send a last minute email requiring an airport pickup and 2 nights at the hotel. Luckily, Neela booked us a... More

The location is great, They will do any thing to make you happy

I have visited Sri Lanka on two occasions. In total I have stayed in about 15 hotels/b&b and eaten in about 30 restaurants. Neelas is the best by a country mile. As far as rooms go you will not find a better location, just off the beach front. Inside all the rooms are immaculate and the nightly rate is fantastic... More

First and foremost, THANK YOU! This is my second time to Neela's and it was just as wonderful if not more than the first! Always a pleasure to stay with you. The rooms are clean and spacious with excellent fan and shower. You sleep like a log at night. The people are incredibly friendly and will go out of their... More
