The hotel is not big, with only a dozen rooms, but it is really clean. Everyone is very friendly. Although the facilities are not as good as those of a standard hotel, it has everything it should have. It is suitable for staying for a few days. It is very cost-effective. It is close to the sea and you can walk to Shivaduka along the coast to see turtles.
Absolutely loved this hotel! The natural environment here is fantastic. It's just a 10-15 minute drive from Tissa Lake. I arrived in the morning to the peaceful sounds of crickets and frogs. It was also a full moon that night, which made the scenery even more stunning. The swimming pool is impressively large too. I stayed on the ground floor, which meant I could step right out onto the lawn from my room.
The hotel offers great value for money; the prices are reasonable and the rooms are quite spacious. It's noticeably cheaper than hotels situated closer to Yala National Park.
I highly recommend booking the breakfast and dinner package. There aren't many other dining options nearby, and more importantly, the buffet is absolutely delicious!!! They offer a great variety of Western dishes, incredibly sweet fruits, and even sushi, making it very suitable for the Chinese palate.
For our morning safari, we requested a packed meal from the hotel. It was incredibly generous, including water, various drinks, juice, sandwiches, and cake – truly more than we could finish! Upon our return, breakfast was still ongoing. I explained to a staff member that I was feeling quite hot and asked if I could get a drink. She was very accommodating, assuring me it was absolutely fine, but did clarify that since we had taken a packed breakfast, we wouldn't be able to have another full meal in the dining area.
I really liked the hotel, I was on holiday with my wife and child, everyone was delighted. The service is excellent, the food is varied, there are restaurants with a certain cuisine, but you need to book them in advance. The pools are clean, there are a lot of sun loungers. The reception will always help, there is a currency exchange. The ocean is a couple of meters away, there are local barkers on the beach, offering excursions.
The oceanfront location was amazing with a great view. We ordered room service for dinner, which was delicious and enjoyed relaxing on the balcony. Breakfast had a wide variety of options, but the taste was just okay. The Sri Lankan and Indian dishes were delicious. The breakfast staff were a bit unhelpful. It said there was a coffee maker, but in fact, it was just instant coffee.
The hotel facilities are excellent. Opened 24 years ago, everything is brand new. The ocean is right outside the door, and there's a private beach, making for stunning sunsets. Evening insect repellent is provided, and the entire hotel is bug-free, which is a nice touch. Breakfast is excellent, and there's an à la carte restaurant for dinner, with excellent seafood. Prices are reasonable before taxes, but slightly higher after taxes and service charges (the Sri Lankan government, after its bankruptcy, has been aggressively collecting taxes). The driver explained that this hotel caters specifically to foreigners, hence the higher taxes. The only downside is that the basic rooms don't have bathtubs, but it still deserves a five-star rating.
Magnificent mini-hotel.
One of the best on the island.
Very friendly staff, small number of rooms. Although it's a la carte, the breakfast is very tasty and varied. Infinity pool with magnificent views. Nearby is one of the best beaches on the island without waves - Jungle beach. I highly recommend choosing this place. By the way, I advise anyone who gets a view of the garden not to be upset - the sea can also be seen from there. Overall, a wonderful boutique hotel.
Needless to say jetwing, Lanka's high-end resort hotel brand. Although this is a franchise store and not a direct store, it uses its management team and its products. Small details need to be strengthened. A lot of food is shipped from the lighthouse hotel next to it, so the service time is relatively long, there is no bathtub, and the water output is slightly smaller. The manager is very enthusiastic and the service is in place. The other waiters are less experienced in internships and have poor English communication skills. Overall it is good, the environment has nothing to say, the quiet and private is generally satisfactory.
Really enjoyed my stay at Hikka Tranz. I had full board and the food had plenty of options and was very good. Cocktails at the beach bar were affordable and really tasty. I would not recommend ordering food there though, it was expensive and not nice. The gym does not have air conditioning, but overall a great place to relax.
Excellent hotel! Highly recommend!
We recently stayed at this hotel and absolutely loved it! Clean, cozy rooms, very comfortable bed. The staff is incredibly polite and always willing to help. The breakfasts are varied and delicious. We'll definitely be back!
The standard of this hotel and it's rooms, is exceptional!
Definetly 10 out of 10 for mine ,as l have stayed in 100,s of hotels around the world over the past 30 years,( except for Covid)
it;s not beach front ,but it is only a short scenic walk to a great beach area any way!
The staff where very friendly and helpful in advice on where to visit etc.
Would certainly stay again ,and l recomend this hotel to any one wishing to stay in this area.
Very Good

VViol***We liked this hotel very much. A spacious and clean room with partial ocean view (second line) is fully matched by the photos on the site. Everyday cleaning, water, tea and coffee is all provided for a comfortable rest.
Breakfasts are delicious, though not in the Swedish table format. Hotel location is just great! It is at the end of the Unavatuna beach, just 15 minutes walk from the main tourist street. In two minutes the only Alcomarquet, and in 20 minutes walk the turtle beach.
But the main beach right across the road! There is a cozy and quiet bay where the waves are broken down about the stones without reaching the shore. Unlike the main beach where the strong flow can carry, you can swim quietly and enjoy the soft remnants of the waves.
I would like to celebrate the staff smiling, kind and very pleasant people. Thank you for your warm reception!
ЮЮлия ЗНаш отдых в Шри-Ланке начался с Мириссы и с отеля Randiya sea view hotel. Я переживала о том, что наш отель расположен прямо возле дороги и будет шумно, но, поверьте, больше шума вы услышите от волн океана, от чего мы были в полном восторге. На ресепшен работают очень приветливые и добрые люди. Рядом с отелем расположен бассейн, нам он очень понравился. На ресепшен можно брать большие полотенца и использовать их на лежаках у бассейна. Нам повезло встретить шикарный закат из окна нашего номера. Большим плюсом этого отеля является то, что он расположен близко к океану, несмотря на то, что нужно перейти дорогу. Мы пешком доходили до parrot rock, она совсем рядом, а также, в относительно шаговой доступности находится coconut tree hill. Вдоль береговой линии много кафешек с лежаками. Купались в левой части побережья, ближе к parrot rock, там волны меньше. У отеля есть своя парковка, а также ресторан.
GGuest UserA great hotel, location is very convenient. Near fish and fruit markets, bus station, currency exchange, supermarkets, wineshops and most importantly to the clean Hickey beach 4 minutes walk. The staff at the hotel handled their top-level tasks. I haven't seen the room clean so long. Bed-white. I was in the room with sea view ... a huge balcony with a dryer with a table and chairs. Water is always hot. Teapot, refrigerator, adapter, fan is all in the room. The most important is a common, clean kitchen - where there is microwave, baking, stove. And all in perfect cleanness. Thank you the huge host of the hotel Rajesh - met and held as a dear guest! The advice from the soul, as it is checked on itself)))
AAnonymous UserMy wife and I stayed here during our vacation in Sri Lanka, choosing it because of the high Google ratings. The location really impressed us. The hotel is literally a step away from the beach and less than five minutes’ walk to town, which made it very convenient. Sitting on the balcony overlooking the beach and listening to the waves was easily the best part of the stay.
The lobby was simple but acceptable, and there is a seafood restaurant right next to the hotel.
At check-in, there was a small hiccup. I booked through Trip.com, but they couldn’t find my booking at first. After about ten minutes, they managed to sort it out and confirmed that the booking came via Agoda. The receptionists were friendly and welcoming, even offering us a drink on arrival.
Our room on the second floor had a great view of the sea. The shower had good water pressure, although the bathroom could use better ventilation. The toiletries seemed diluted, so we ended up using our own.
Unfortunately, the air conditioning became a real problem. It leaked so badly that the room flooded twice, soaking my shoes. Despite my request for a pail to manage the water, they initially only gave floor mats, which was very frustrating. By the time they finally sent a pail, it was too late. We barely slept that night because of the constant dripping sound.
Overall, the location and friendliness of the staff were strong points, but the poor handling of the air conditioning issue really spoiled our experience.
AAnonymous UserNot bad, worth the price, I've stayed here once, the room is beautiful, the staff is convenient and efficient, and there is a lot of food for dinner. It takes more than ten minutes to walk to the beach.
GGuest UserExcellent hotel! Highly recommend!

GGuest UserAlthough it takes you about 15 minutes to get
'guesthouse' from Galle-railway station,
along the main street on the way to
'guesthouse ',there is a big supermarket
with eat-in space.
So,it will be convenient for you to go shopping
the daily necessities and foods.
A friendly owner runs this guesthouse.
As he seemed to take an interest in
studying about the foreign cultures,
especially East Asian.
I was so absorbed in a conversation with
him until late at night.
In the guest house property,
there is not a big swimming pool for guests,
but also a lot of tropical tree...
for instance,Guava,Cinnamon , Mango
trees and so on.
Maybe you will feel like
you have a something of an adventure
while taking a turn in the garden.
A guest room l spent was a large one with a
mosquito net and an electric fan.
Although my room doesn't have air-
conditioning,
it is relatively comfortable for me to stay in one-night.
If I have a chance to go on a trip in Galle,
I would like to visit here again.
Thank you for reading my long document.
JjainRajatExcellent location. Quite nearby to mirissa harbour and weligama. Liked the property. They arranged a candle lit dinner setting nearby beach as it was my honeymoon on request for no additional charges.
Liked the beach, the swimming facilities and the buffet for dinner as well as breakfast.
Arranged breakfast box as i had to go on whale watching and would have missed my breakfast.
Very nice staff.
Only thing they can improve is a bit quick on service as we had to call multiple times for getting our room cleaned.
GGuest UserHotel is very comfortable and client oriented. We are happy to stay there. Thank you very much for beautiful holiday and hospitality. Especially I should mention the size and delicious of breakfasts. A lots of thanks to the cook team
