At the guest house, units have bed linen and towels. PearlDrop in Mirissa was an excellent experience. The room was spotless, with everyone going barefoot to keep beach sand out. Hot water, a great balcony with a beach view, good AC, and perfect lighting made the stay comfortable. The large mirror was a nice touch. Eranga and the staff were extremely helpful, assisting with our whale and dolphin tour and offering great advice. The breakfast was top-notch in both quality and quantity. Highly recommended!

Set 600 metres from Hiriketiya Beach, Wilson's Place offers accommodation with a terrace, as well as a garden. It is situated 5 km from Hummanaya Blow Hole and provides a 24-hour front desk. The guest house offers rooms with air conditioning, free private parking and free WiFi. We were meant to be at Wilson’s place for 3 days and ended up staying 7. Loved Hiriketiya and staying at Wilson’s was so nice. It’s close enough to the town center but far enough that you only hear the sound of the waves (it’s like 10 mins walk). The rooms are nice and the place is kinda new so all furniture is in perfect condition. There is a little garden to chill out which tends to have shadow so a perfect area to spend the time. There is a place with pool like 4 mins walking where if you buy food or drink you can chill out in the pool, so nice addition to the area and a great plan to do from Wilson’s (Belika). Rumesh the owner of Wilson place is so nice and accommodating, you can also do laundry there if you need for a low fare. He arranged his brother to drive us to Matara for also lower fare than what we got quoted in town. Overall nice place nice owner modern furniture. Totally recommended.
