We have just enjoyed 3 nights at this absolutely wonderful hotel. From start to finish, the service was 5* we were greeted with a Hindu tradition, which was special. Thank you Moheshi (inthinknthis was her name) All members of staff took the time to talk to us and get to know us with genuine interest. Including Emran at reception. The pool attendent was a great man, and we enjoyed talking with him. Special mention to Roshan in the restaurant who really tried to ensure we enjoyed our breakfast and make indian tea the way we like it. ( Breakfast) was honestly a feast on days when there were fewer guests we had a la carte. The hotel itself has wonderful touches. Everything is brand new and so untouched. The towels and linen were immaculate, and everywhere was clean. The gym was well equipped, and the swimming pool was beautiful with a stunning view of the sea. Our room was spacious, we loved the outdoor terrace. The grounds are well kept and constantly maintained. We would love to come back when the sea is calmer to enjoy the beautiful ocean. Thank you for making our stay memorable. ( we considered staying a few more nights, but the rain was relentless)

We had a wonderful stay at Avila Nilaveli Beach. The rooms were incredibly comfortable, with excellent air conditioning that made the heat feel like a distant memory. The location is perfect—just a quick 5-minute walk to the beautiful Nilaveli Beach, which was so convenient for daily visits. What really stood out, though, was the flexibility of the staff. They went above and beyond to accommodate our schedule, adjusting breakfast times to fit with our activities. Their attention to detail and willingness to help made our stay even more enjoyable. Overall, a great spot for a relaxing and hassle-free getaway!

We were their first guests. The staff is super friendly and they always wanted to help us with arranging a snorkeling tour or other plans. The rooms are very clean and the bathroom too ! They have a very nice balcony for chilling that they will convert to a dining area later. I would definitely recommend this place !!

    This was such a wonderful place to end our trip. The staff put us so at ease and made our stay incredibly relaxing. We were in the smallest room available, that is described as having no window, however it's much nicer than it sounds! There are glass doors which bring in plenty of light and the tree in the bathroom is enjoyable. We had some great meals at the hotel and the beach is less than a minute away. The hotel has close connections with a tour operator (Boatman) who was great and offered trips all over the area. Would definitely stay here again.

    The hospitality provided by the staff was exceptional. We took the train from Colombo and arrived Trinco early in the morning, around 6.30 am. When we talked to the hotel manager (Richard), he arranged our room and we got the chance for a early check-in. Richard you are superb!! The room was spacious, clean and AC/hotwater were good. Although this hotel is located a bit far from beach the facilities are good. Staff are friendly and helpful. You can order your food and it's also very tasty. I would recommend anyone to stay in this hotel.

    We came here for 5 days but ended up staying 10. You get good coffee, homemade bread and waffles for breakfast. Not to mention a good chat with the owner Mr. Seran, who really makes you feel welcome. He even brought pretty cakes from Trincomalee to celebrate the birthday of my twin girls. Rooms are clean and convinient and you are only 2 minutes from the beach. If you like diving, Pearl Divers are really close. And on the beach you find plenty of boats that can take you whale-watching or snorkelling. We are coming back!

We loved the breakfasts with their big variety of food in front of the beach. Thank you all guys! My friends and I fully reccomend it :)

    Top hotel at a wonderful beach, very nice wooden cottages, friendly staff and reliable service e.g. the airport transfer. On the way from Colombo to Nilaveli and Trincomalee You are passing jungle and national parks, having wild elephants on the road, an exciting experience also, even though it is a car ride by around 5 hours. Warmly recommended!

    This location was absolutely beautiful. There's lots to see and do and 3 nights wasn't enough to fully enjoy the setting. Yes you can spend time at the beach and go snorkeling, but you can also visit the Thiruskoneswaram temple and eat delicious food on Sarvodaya Road. We highly recommend Rice 'n' Curry Restaurant. As well as The White House for Accommodation and Rangan Snorkeling

    I liked the small hotel we stayed in on the beach front (Mithra Paradise) and the semi-private beach. A real gem if you're looking for a quiet romantic place. Much better than the big faceless commercial hotels. I would recomemmend the small guest houses in the whole of SL for this reason as the service is exceptional and they are usually family-run so they put a lot of love and effort into pleasing their guests. No mosquitoes in July. Avoid the dolphin watching 'chasing' tours. Loads of boats making a big noise and running over the dolphins. Poor animals. You only glimpse them for a few seconds and the boat ride is hell on your back. Try the snorkelling instead.

    Trincomalee is a beautiful beach town, the beaches are amazing, lots of cultural things to do if you want, as well as lots of relaxation. Some great restaurants on the beach and in the town. The only draw back is it takes quite along time to get to (depending on where you are coming from) but that is the same across most of Sri Lanka

    We absolutely love this area, by far one of the best places in Sri Lanka. After travelling around the island, we decided just to completely chill and not check out the other beaches. We will definitely go back again and check out a few of the other beaches along that coastline. Food is fantastic and the people are very friendly! When we read up about the island, they said that this was the less developed area, but as far as I could see it was the same as most other places. Definitely has everything you need and one of the best places to completely unwind.

    A much more peaceful beach holiday that at neighbouring Uppaveli, so if you want to get away from the crowds, it’s a perfect spot. The surrounding countryside looks beautiful too - I wish we’d have had more time to explore. We ate at Sara’s fish restaurant, where the seafood kottu & prawn curry were delicious.
