Loved everything about waves

Uitzicht

Ze mogen de ontbijt kaart in de kamer liggen. Is beter voor hun verkoop

Lovely place. Clean. Right on the beach.

The staff were mostly young boys more interested in their phones than helping. They had a restaurant but never offered us menus. Not the friendly helpful service we have had everywhere else in Sri Lanka.

Amazing location, really well equipped, clean and the bed was comfy.

Fabulous place to stay. Location was exceptional - perfect place for our 2 night stay. Stayed on the top floor with an amazing balcony and the view of the beach was amazing. Close to everything. Would highly recommend :)

Room is basic - Shower was a little weak but that is all.

Great value for money, location was perfect. Clean and quiet

Fabulous view

Described as a Deluxe Double, a prison cell has more furniture. A double bed, one small desk & a fridge. Nowhere to put cases other than on the floor, no clothes storage other than a rack. A single towel. A kettle but no coffee, tea, sugar. No tv. Very poor or non-existent WiFi & internet.

Prime location, very friendly staff

Bathroom was okay, rooms were simple but comfortable

Location

Rooms could be more extensively furnished

Has the greatest location and sea view in Hiri. Very nice and helpful staff. Huge bed, Ac strong, hot water.

Littlebit loud, in front there is bar with constant music, which is ok, just be prepared.

Location, value for money, nice bed, great view.

smell from small stream next to hotel. small bed side tables would be nice.

Mooie ruime en schone kamer en badkamer. Prachtig terras ( bovenste verdieping) en mooi uitzicht over de baai

Minimaal meubilair in de kamer. Geen tussentijdse schoonmaak ( wij verbleven 4 nachten) en we moesten om schone handdoeken vragen, dat kregen we wel daarna direct.

It was in a great position and very clean.

Some hanging space for clothes would be great.

The view is so amazing ! You are 20 sec from your bed to the beach !

It’s not a luxury place (basic bathroom and equipment) but definitely worth it for the view and proximity with everything.

The most excellent location accross the road from the beach. The staff were so friendly and welcoming. The view from balcony amazing. Good facilities, spacious bathroom, comfortable bed

Property was spotless really great location.

Balcony was weird didn’t feel like I had privacy as next door neighbours were on my balcony needs to be fenced off. WiFi wasn’t great and no toiletries. Room needed lockers.

Close to the beach, clean with AC and big balcony

No ability to buy drinks or food

Great spot right next to the beach and cafes.. Beautiful view from the balcony. Enjoyed watching the monkeys and the waves. Everything was really clean.

No shampoo provided. The music from the bar across the road was a little annoying when you were on the balcony, however you couldnt really hear it inside the room..

Fabulous location, large balcony and friendly staff

Wifi wasn’t working for the 3 days we stayed. The room needs some bedside tables and something to put bags on.

Fantastic location looking over Hiriketiya Beach. Easy to walk everywhere. Big deck to enjoy relaxing watching the waves. New building so very clean and tidy.

Rooms were very spartan. No bed side tables. Only 2 towels. No beach towels.

The location is perfect! Nothing like watching the waves from the balcony. The staff is very kind.

Fantastic location, right on the beach. Amazing view from the balcony. Very clean facilities

Great location, clean and staff were very friendly

Nothing - it was great

Beautiful hotel right by the beach with an amazing view. Very clean room

Everything was perfect

The best thing about this hotel is its location - it is directly across from the beach. This is lovely as you can sit at the beach, grab food, walk the adorable beach and streets. The rooms are big and new so that is a bonus.

This is more like a managed property than a hotel with services. The staff there doesn’t really understand English so if you need something, it’s quite a challenge. They asked if we wanted breakfast, and we asked each time that it was included to which they shook their heads up and down. At the end of our stay we received a bill for our breakfasts. The WiFi doesn’t work in the cement rooms. You can get it outside. And to be picky, while the room is clean and new, it’s honestly just a bed, desk/chair, fridge, clothes rack. It could use tables by the bed for your phone, book, etc.

Amazing location, clean and super staff…

Great location overlooking the bay, although some rooms have better view than others, just looking into the palm trees with the occasional monkey. Rooms were very new and very clean. Staff was nice and attentive. Enjoyed my stay there.

Restaurant across the street is blasting loud music into the night even though it‘s completely empty but it was ok.

Great view and location, close to the beach and good cafes and central and easy to walk to everywhere around the bay. It was an easy walk to the quieter Dikwella beach. Bed was comfy, room was pretty simple but nice and clean. It was lovely sitting out on the balcony and looking out, there was always a good breeze. The guys who run it are legends

- very noisy - there was music from at least 3 different restaurants most of the time, it starts early and goes til pretty late.. I had to sleep with noise cancelling headphones on. For this reason if I went here again I’d try to stay somewhere not close to other cafes however most guesthouses seem to have cafes attached to them so I don’t think it’s easily avoided. - The windows at the front didn’t open - could get a great breeze coming in but it’s pretty hot in the rooms and the fan didn’t do anything

Perfect location Hiri is beautiful. You’re in the thick of Hiri next to the beach. I’m a surfer so perfect for surfers. The place has a surf vibe feel and very cool. My favourite place in Sri Lanka by far. The accommodation was very comfortable but basic inside. The guys at accommodation were nice and helpful. We would definitely stay again. Monkeys everywhere each morning it was amazing.

If I’m picky it needed some bedside tables and a cupboard to put your clothes as we were living out of a suitcase as no place to put clothes.

Very good spot ! Nice view, close to both beaches

All good

Close to the beach, great sea view

Extremely loud!! The bars and restaurants behind the hotel blast music at full volume almost all day, with multiple songs playing at once. It was overwhelming- I couldn’t handle the noise and ended up leaving after just one night.

Booked for 1 night and stayed for 3. Amazing location, very very clean room, perfect WiFi, lovely staff/very helpful, 10 seconds from beach, relyable hot shower...amazing!10/10

great location, sea view

windows cannot be opened in the room. only window to open is in the bathroom facing the backyard, packed with flies and no mosquito net

The location was perfect, with a huge balcony overlooking the sea and just a one-minute walk to the beach.

extreme closeness of the beach

-karaoke party by drunk tourists shouting tourists till 2am. couldn't even sleep with earplugs -no cupboard for clothes or a bedside table -balcony was not private, it's like a corridor, accessible from outside even from the street as dogs came up too -not complete shading

The location was at the quiet end of the beach road. Very friendly staff. Awesome bar/restaurant opposite - Muthu The monkeys may stroll past your window in the morning!

Poor and intermittent WiFi. They accept cash ONLY. For a 5 night stay this is a lot of cash.

- great location - clean spacious room - comfy bed

- it was fine for us but is noisy

I had a wonderful stay at Waves Hiri . It's conveniently located right opposite the beach and within walking distance of a great surf spot, making it perfect for surfers and beach lovers alike.

Perfect location right across the road from the beach!

Brilliant location. Good quality unit. Very attentive and friendly staff.

Waves Hiri was beautiful perfect location across from the beach, I would recommend this accommodation

Perfect location as it is right on the beach! Amazing view from the balcony, big spacious and clean room with comfy bed too. Host was super kind and friendly too.

N/a

Right on the beach with great views of the surf from the large balcony. The room was modern, clean and very comfortable. Walk to everything. 2 recommendations for dining, the Italian restaurant 2 doors down (think it was Baccuzi) and Smoke and Bitters. Even though it said there wasn’t any parking there was. We loved our stay at Waves Hiri and highly recommended it!

Nothing

We absolutely loved our stay at Waves Hiri. The location is absolutely perfect with the beach right on the hotels doorstep. Lots of great restaurants close by, Malu Poke is right next door & made amazing cappuccinos which we started every day with. The staff were all incredibly friendly and were so sweet and welcoming. The rooms are huge and had an aircon and fan as well as a mini fridge. The sea view from the rooms is really special & it’s amazing to have a huge balcony to make use of. We also loved the beach themed bathroom, what a cute touch :) the hotel also rents surfboards if you need one and can assist with laundry & transport and anything else you may need. Just a heads up that no credit card facilities are available so cash payment is required.

Absolutely beautiful room clean huge and with an amazing sea view balcony! Our host was lovely and we really did feel relaxed at this beach front luxury hotel!

Nothing it was perfect!

Good Aircon Nice staff Big room Good shower Nice balcony View of sea Parking spot

Far too loud for us due to the bar/s around the accommodation. Maybe ok for younger guys. One window didn’t have a curtain, bar opposite could see in so I pulled over other curtain which was big enough to party cover. Also sun woke us up at sunrise due to the above.

Big, clean modern room and bathroom with required facilities. Very comfortable bed, sheets and pillows. Desk and fridge were most welcome. Location is a few steps from the beach. Had a balcony overlooking the bay.

Not a lot. If anything, the room was a bit bare. Could have done with some decoration eg pictures on walls. Also some furniture to put clothes. And a curtain on the side window to block sunlight in the morning.

Excellent location, right in front of the beach with viewing on the waves. Great for surfers. Staff are super kind. Wifi worked well.

Bathroom is clean but a bit basic. Lightening could be improved also.

The location and balcony view. Staff were attentive and had good recommendations whenever we asked for. The vibe is nice since you can hear the ocean sound from the room and chill music from nearby restaurant. WiFi was good.

The facilities were a bit too basic for me, missing basic staff like body mirror and bedside tables. Fan was not working properly (even thought AC is available )

Waves is in such a wonderful location in Hiriketiya. Just opposite the beach which means you can pop back to your room for things if you’re at the beach or pop down for a sunrise swim. The bed was so comfortable, aircon was great and the balcony was lovely. After reading some reviews of the bar opposite I was worried about the music/noise at night but it wasn’t a problem at all for us - we slept perfectly. We loved it here and would stay again without hesitation.

The Wi-Fi didn’t work in our room, but we were on the top floor and I assume furthered from the box. It worked on the terrace and downstairs. Bathrooms could do with an upgrade but didn’t bother us too much.

A beauiful Place to Stay! Rooms are very clean and with much Natural light. Loved waking up here!! The mattress was very comfortable, we Could sleep very good at Night. In previous comments the Loud music was mentioned. For us it was Not loud at all, i Think the bar now has to turn the music much more low. We will come back!

We booked this place because it was so close to the beach and had a gorgeous view of the waves - and we booked a second night because we had so much fun! We appreciated the very friendly and helpful staff, the large balcony, and the views.

You are close to everything, so be prepared to hear music and street noise until late night. The room could also use more amenities, like a nightstand, more storage space, and low lighting near the bed.

Perfect location on the beach, great coffee close by, really nice staff, pretty crazy bathroom. Aircon was good, comfy bed, mosquito net and monkeys in the surrounding trees made it all quite fantastic overalk.

A devet on the bed would make it even nicer.

Great views, clean room and friendly staff and good location … loved hearing the waves at night

Sadly we could not pay by credit card … it was cash only which could cause a problem for some. Also the noise/ music from neighbouring bars was constant from 8am till midnight…

Fabulous location

- excellent location right across from the water - the view on the top floor was amazing and relaxing - the room was very clean and the hosts kept everything very tidy and clean Fyi there are 2 rooms with a small balcony/outside table and 2 rooms with a big balcony/outside table. I recommend to book the room with the big balcony if available :)

-

Location is superb - 10 second walk to beach. Balcony is great to chill on as well. Comfy beds.

Shower has no cubicle, so bathroom gets a bit wet. But fully functional and doesn’t detract from experience

We only stayed one night but could have stayed longer. The room was spacious, clean and very comfortable. The location was great, right on the beach!

When we arrived there was no one at reception as the staff were all busy cleaning rooms so we had a wait a little while before we were helped. The team then kindly provided a locked room for our bags so we could go have lunch while they got our room ready.

Great value for money Comfy beds, best location can hear the waves, friendly staff at our call when needed, chilled vibes, so much more value than jaspers house and half the price

Nothing

Perfect location on the beach

Not enough hooks and storage .

Excellent location, real value for the money. Simple, clean and offers great value for money

Location, value for money, cleanliness

Great location and the team were very helpful.

Perfect location, the rooms are super nice and big and the staff is so helpful and friendly!

Right on the beach amazing location. We booked 3 days and ended up staying for 5! Surfed every day watched the waves.. awesome. Really great food spots close by as well. Didn’t want to leave.

Maybe needs some storage space for clothes, we lived out of our bags.

Nice helpful hosts with a clean room. The room has a spacious balcony overlooking the beautiful Hiriketiya Beach. 🌊 The hotel is right on the beach, which was very important to us. The pictures correspond to reality. Particularly good location, as you can also get to Dickwella Beach very quickly on foot. There is also a rental shop for surfboards and beginners' courses. We really enjoyed our stay. The accommodation is highly recommended. 🌞👍🏼

Amazing location right on the beach. Rooms are very clean with comfy beds and great views. Would stay again if I came to Hiriketiya.

It’s brand new, right on the beach, spectacular views, clean, great airco and fan, friendly and accommodating staff. And again: just spectacular views. Will definitely return.

A closet in the room would be nice.

Great location next to the beach and plenty of good restaurants around. The surf coach they recommended us was great and overall very friendly people.

Super nice guys who run that hotel. It was very clean an everything is like New.
