fantastic
This is a lovely family owned guest house with clean rooms, good food, and amazing hosts. They go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and welcomed. I am frequently in Hikkaduwa and every time I book here without hesitation. Highly recommend it.
The only downside is it is right near the train tracks and you will be waken in the morning by the whistles and rush of the train going by- but if you're an early bird or get back to sleep it's totally worth it.

Sehr gute Lage abseits der Hauptstraße und in der Nähe des Strandes. Sehr freundliche und hilfsbereite Gastgeber. Zimmer absolut sauber. Leckeres Frühstück. Gelegentlich etwas lauter durch vorbeifahrende Züge.
