The location and vibe was incredible. If you’re looking for a relaxing stay in a stunning location go there. We also booked whale watching and saw whales. The food was great and a very warm welcome from Amanda made our stay amazing.

The cabanas are comfortable and spacious and while not directly facing the beach in a beautiful tropical garden with a large patch of grass leading onto the beach. The location is within walking distance of restaurants, bars and diving companies. The staff, in particular Amal, is a real gem, helpful in assisting with transportation or arranging diving trips. There are hammocks and loungers right on the beach.

this place is THE place to stay in Nilaveli or trincomalee area. Even though the area is very hot, this felt like a cool oasis. lots of space to chill, do yoga or read. The rooms are also big, not too hot and shower has a great preassure! The owners are amazing hosts, super friendly, we enjoyed the conversations. Thank you! ☀️

Very close to the beach, very confortable room and the owner, shiran, is everything! You just realize how he truly likes being a hotel owner and talking to, taking care of his guests. He made everything possible so we had the best experience at his hotel. A 10/10 for us!!

I liked everything about this place, starting from the wonderful shady garden. The staff was very kind and the room clean, just renovated and with its own special style that you won't find anywhere. I strongly recommend it

    The location in Nilaveli is perfect. The beach is 5 minutes walking. It's a very quiet area, perfect to relax. The home stay has a good vibes atmosphere, with a garden with "hamacas", and full day open kitchen. The staff was nice and friendly. The room was very cheap and it has all the basic things you may need. I arrived very early and they stored my luggage, also in the departure day.

    We took extremely cheap room without AC for about 10 dolars for two persons for 1 night. We got what we paid for.... There was no problems just bring your own toilet paper...,.. Locality is good less than 5 minutes to the beach. There are few good restaurants near guesthouse too.

    We enjoyed the silence, harmony, friendliness and beautiful area in Amal’s Paradies! Perfect location to slow down and to discover Nilaveli, Trincomalee, Uppuveli,… Amal is a very nice host. Always helpful, available before and during our stay. We will def come back to this beautiful place. It was also very nice to see that the extremely lovable dog was allowed to have such a nice and quiet place to live. We really enjoyed his presence. a soul of an animal.

    Quiet and great location in Nilaveli, near the beach and a couple of good restaurants. The host and his family were very kind and helped us to arrange a scooter, snorkelling kits, breakfast, and other tips. Big, comfy, fresh and clean room. The little garden and terrace was perfect to chill out. We had a lovely time!
