Nah am Busbahnhof und Strand, ruhige Lage mit vielen Restaurants in der Nähe, bequeme doppelbetten mit Moskitonetzen, Steckdosen in Bettnähe, sauberes modernes Bad, hilfsbereite nette Eigentümer, Laundry Service, eigenes Restaurant,
The dorms have double beds and not bunk beds. Nice and big bathroom. Big lounge and nice terrace. Very good value for money
L'emplacement près du lac où circulent les bus locaux pour aller en ville, la possibilité d'aller à pied au centre, le très bon accueil du propriétaire et de son manager, une bouilloire avec thé et café, un frigidaire, un micro-ondes. Douche chaude. Au premier étage, un salon salle à manger ainsi que 3 chambres, le tout très spacieux, bien décoré et élégant.
Nous avons choisi le dortoir avec deux lits et nous partagions la washroom avec le manager. Installations sommaires mais bon rapport qualité-prix. Pas de possibilité de laver son linge ni de cuisiner.
Clean and basic accommodation. The location was good. The owners were lovely people. Wifi worked well.
Mattress was thin.
Really lovely property with good sized beds
Très accueillant et gentils, chambre avec ventilo et moustiquaire, super cuisine en bas, je recommande !
La família són molt agradables, sempre disposats a ajudar. Estava tot molt net.
Wspaniała właścicielka, wiatrak dawał chłód, było czysto, wszędzie blisko, łóżko wygodne.
Super nette Besitzer, äußerst freundlich und zuvorkommend. Top Lage
Betten bzw. Die Matratze ist sehr dünn. Es ist fast als würde man auf Holz liegen. Mehr Ablageflächen und Haken wären toll
I had a wonderful time in this house. The owner is lovely, very kind and it's very clean!
The quality of the beds. I have serious back problems, and the mattresses are very thin!
Emplacement idéal, dortoir très spacieux et propre, tout comme les espaces communs.
Uns hat die Besitzerin gefallen, die sehr freundlich ist und uns Hilfe bei allen möglichen Dingen angeboten hat.
Wir hatten keine Klimaanlage und im Bad war es sehr warm, da es nur ein kleines Fenster gab.
It was pretty warm, I could take a shower every 1-2hours. Comfy bed, clean shower room, common place. Close to the beach.
Tangalle was just so warm that the ceiling fan seemed to be not enough to cool me down. Wifi is weak.
Parfait !
Comfortable, clean and nice place.
Very warm family, welcoming and helpful, good location near the bus station and with plenty shops, restaurants and beaches around. Clean dorm with huge beds, it gets hot but there's a strong fan and also it's Sri Lanka so obviously hot. The family also run an on site restaurant, food is very nice and reasonable prices.
The owner is very nice and helpful. The beach is a 5 minute walk away, and the main bus station is around 10 minutes. You can order food in the restaurant downstairs (also owned by the hotel) which is very fairly priced and delicious.
The dorm doesn’t have AC, and got extremely warm at night. There is only a ceiling fan to keep you cool and it just isn’t enough. I sweat through both of nights there which was not so nice. There is only one bathroom (toilet + shower) for 6 people, so you may need to wait to shower/get ready.
Nice and clean with a big bed and towel provided. Close to places to eat and buy food. Nice place to sit outside
Bit out of the way of beaches
The location is perfect, and the family is nice. Close to the bus station and beach.
Great stay! Hosts were very welcoming and it was a nice restaurant for meals throughout the day! The rooms were decent with large single beds and good sized and clean bathroom. There were 3 rooms on 1 floor of all girls so it was a nice space and plenty of areas for socialising! The WiFi was also excellent which isn’t often in Sri Lanka!! Also plug sockets next to the bed!
There is no ac just a ceiling fan which was okay but no fresh air so the room was warm. Could benefit from a couple of ground fans maybe? Perhaps a little bedside table instead of a chair would be more useful?
The owners are lovely. She's got a restaurant as well and the food tastes really good! Everything is clean and comfortable.

Super friendly and open family, can only recommend if you want an authentic experience here in Sri Lanka. Namali and her family welcome you with open arms. Great facilities and food!!
The hosts are very caring, and always happy to help out with information. Great food too!!
The lady of the house is wonderful, so sweet and careful. You can also count on her husband for Tuktuk drive or so. The food which you can as well eat in the restaurant Lankan Delight has the best flavors at an affordable price!

Located just off main road, a 10minute walk to the bus station and a 5 minute walk to the beach this hotel/hostel is perfect for a relaxed stay in Tangalle. The dorm room is 3 big beds with mosquito nets and ceiling fan. The family that run this place are so friendly and make the most incredible and well priced food!
Good location, comfortable bed, very clean, the family is so friendly and the food is great. Everything was perfect
I was staying as a hostel guest but the room was fully available just for me, it was a really welcoming and amazing stay in Tangalle since, the hospitality of the family is really great. They are also preparing very tasty Sri Lankan food for lunch , dinner and breakfast. I fell in love with Tangalle thanks to this place :)
Everything Clean location kind
Nothing
Amazing hostess and lovely family!! very welcoming and the food was lovely. would definitely recommend, especially for the price! We stayed in a 3 person dorm but were alone which was nice.
I have to recommend breakfast and dinner in this accommodation. Friendly and very helpful staff.
Very nice host, great breakfast. Clean, close to the beach
I just can recommend this place. The owner Namali is super friendly and help you with everything. She served fine breakfast and if you want delicious dinner. Quickly your a part of the family. Thx a lot for this lovely place :)
Amazing host, very kind and helpful! She even cooked for me which was really nice.
There were no other people so I’m not able to say anything about the atmosphere
A very nice hostel run by a very nice family. The rooms are clean and the beds comfy. They also had resalable priced food which was nice.
The location is perfect (close to the beach and bus station), the room are clean and so confortable and the host are the nicest people !! I definitely recommande !
Clean, cosy and quiet. Really felt like home. Host is a very lovely, sweet and caring lady. Just 5 minutes from the beach and restaurants. I could have stayed much longer!
Internet is good enough for whatsapp etc. But if you want to work, it may not be enough
One of the nicest hostels I’ve stayed in Sri Lanka. The family are so lovely and kind, made us breakfast and dinner each day, gave me a scooter to rent and helped us with transport recommendations etc. I will definitely be back!
The food offered was very good! Owner was super nice and helpful if there was any issue or enquiry, very responsive. The place was clean. The balcony overlooking palm trees was so nice!
The room got quite hot at night. At times I felt a second bathroom would have been nice. I would have enjoyed access to filtered water to avoid the plastic but water was conveniently available to purchase on site.
The host was just lovely. Clean, quiet, 5 minutes walk away from the beach.
Comfortable, value for money, great host, great food, close to beach and city
All was good
The hostel owner is lovely and helpfull, the beds are huge, close to the ocean
Great hospitality, tasty food, everything is clean. Located close to the beach.
Lovely, comfortable hostel run by a friendly local family who were incredibly helpful and kind. The beds were large and comfortable, the property was clean and easy to get to, and it was very affordable. Tangalle is a deeply underrated destination on the south coast for relaxing beach time and great food.
The owner was very caring and very nice and chatty. The beds were clean and big. I loved to stay at this place!
