We stayed in the deluxe double room. This had the most beautiful window with view! It’s a quiet area with a stunning beach on walking distance. The family is very friendly, helpful and kind. Very comfortable bed and pillows and the shower was amazing! Deff recommend to stay here!
Ich habe während eines 2-monatigen Freiwilligeneinsatz im guesthouse von Abraham gewohnt. Mein Zimmer war großräumig mit schöner Terrasse. Ich hatte ein eigenes Bad mit viel Platz zum Duschen. Abraham, seine liebe Frau und sogar seine 3 Kinder waren sehr freundlich und über alle Maßen hilfsbereit. Ich danke ihnen allen, weil sie meinen Aufenthalt in Tangalle so angenehm gemacht haben! Ein ebenso großer Vorteil dieser Unterkunft ist die Nähe zum wilden Hiru-Beach (ca. 3 Gehminuten), den ich oft für mich alleine hatte. Ich komme wieder 🙂
Wow! What an epic beach break. Firstly, we stayed in the cabana style accommodation which is set apart from the main house. The owner built this himself, and the craftsmanship and design was truly impressive. It was simply beautiful to wake up here, surrounded by jungle, birdsong and with the sun shining through the circular window. I could have spent all day just hanging out here. The breakfast was delicious and owners were super helpful and friendly throughout our stay. The location is fabulous a)a short tuk tuk from Tangalle town, and an even shorter ride to famous and dramatic silent beach b) 2 mins walk from deserted Hiru beach c) 5 mins walk from Mawella beach and d)10-15 mins walk from Jungle Beach- which is paradise. I can't recommend this place highly enough!
Posto meraviglioso in ottima posizione Colazione superlativa
Our hosts were extremely friendly and helpful. The property is near really nice beaches. The breakfast was great. The bedroom was comfortable with a large balcony

We had a wonderful time in at Abraham's Beach houses. Abraham is a great host and super helpful. Fantastic home made breakfast, delicious juices and the beach was super close and very beautiful. We really enjoyed our time and would definitely come back :)
Abraham’s house is set in paradise, the rooms are beautiful and it’s a 2 min walk from a tranquil and private beach. He and his family we’re super accommodating and the food was absolutely delicious, couldn’t recommend this place more. Thanks so much to Abraham and his family for having us!
Wonderful place run by a very nice family. The room was very clean, nice clean bathroom, hot shower and beautiful outdoor area. Many birds and monkeys to watch :). The breakfast is tasty! Close by beaches are beautiful and there are nearly no people around. We came back to stay here again cause we needed some quiet days :)
Everything was perfect
A wonderful place, very close to a beautiful beach. The beach itself felt like paradise – peaceful, clean, almost empty, and every morning we could watch local fishermen catching fish using traditional methods. The room had everything we needed: hot water, plenty of space, air conditioning, a mosquito net, a wardrobe, and a nice balcony. The place is perfect for relaxing and slowing down, and the owner was very calm, kind, and clearly devoted to his family, which created a very warm atmosphere. The location is quite secluded, so if you want to go to a shop or restaurant you need to take a walk, preferably along the beach.
Meals can be ordered from a regular menu, but they need to be arranged in advance – for example, you can’t usually order breakfast on the spot, so it’s best to plan ahead. However, the host was always willing to prepare something else if ingredients were available.
😊 bardzo dobra lokalizacja blisko do plaży jakieś 5 minut na pieszo plaże w okoliczne bardzo ładne szczególnie mawella- zaraz następna plaża od od tej do której zmierzała droga. bardzo godna polecenia 😊 Spokojna okolica i brak dużej ilości turystów 😊 bardzo dobre jedzenie śniadanie i w bardzo dobrej cenie. do wyboru lenkijskie lub europejskie. Możliwości zakupów wody napojów szejków i obiadów. 😊Gospodarz bardzo pomocny i sympatyczna rodzina. otwarty, jak był dostępny to na przykład zawoził tam gdzie chciałeś a jak nie to miał kolegę swojego albo innego jeszcze kolegę który też mógł cię zawieźć. ustawił nam też przejazd na lotnisko. 😊 Bardzo dobra relacja ceny do jakości i na pewno tam chętnie wrócimy ☀️
🙂↕️ Nie wszystkie pokoje wyposażone w lodówkę
The location is beautiful nice and quiet, the room very clean and has a nice shower - breakfast is tasty :)
Everything was nice
Idéalement situé à quelques mètres de la superbe Hiru Beach, Abraham vous accueille avec tellement de gentillesse et de pudeur dans sa superbe guest house. Tout y est généreux, calme et bien arrangé. Une vraie valeur sûre, parfaite pour profiter au calme de la côte sud de l'île !
Quelques fourmis dans la salle de bain mais rien de gênant
Sehr freundlicher Empfang mit einem Erfrischungsgetränk. Das Zimmer war sauber und die Klimaanlage leise. Die Bushaltestelle ist nur wenige Meter auf der Hauptstraße entfernt.
Tudo!! A simpatia! A localização! O quarto! O pequeno almoço!
Tudo impecável! Apenas a água do chuveiro que tinha pouca pressão mas na verdade seria ótimo que fosse sempre assim para o ambiente!
Ho trascorso una notte in questa struttura e ci tornerei volentieri. La camera era pulita e spaziosa con un grande balcone. La famiglia é stata molto ospitale e top la posizione a soli 3 minuti a piedi da una spiaggia selvaggia e poco turistica immersa nella natura!
Prekrasne ubytovani uprostred prirody, kde vam opice skacou nad hlavami. Pan majitel s rodinou jsou uzasni lide, kteri se o nas bajecne starali. Dekujeme a doufame, ze se budeme moci vratit!!
Great location - off the main road and about 150 metres to a very special beach. Abraham and his family are delightful and extremely helpful
The owner and his wife is so friendly and generous. I only booked the room for 1 night but guess what, they offered me free breakfast, the following day. I would highly recommend the place!
Bardzo miły i pomocny gospodarz, pokoje czyste, przestrzeń dookoła oraz piękny ogród sprzyjały wypoczynkowi. Niesamowitym plusem jest plaża, zaledwie kilka kroków od obiektu, która jest praktycznie pusta. Bardzo polecam :)
De locatie en de vriendelijke familie.
Miks
We stayed here for an initial 3 nights but ended up extending for another 2 nights – that’s how lovely this place is. It’s a minute walk from an isolated beach (you’ll have it to yourself), the amazing family who run this guesthouse provide breakfast, lunch and dinner, as well as drinks. You can get to Tangalle and Hiriketiya easily by tuk tuk. The guesthouse and the forest it sits in are both extremely peaceful and a haven for any travellers who have done the usual hectic tourist trail in Sri Lanka. Get the Sri Lankan breakfast and the Sri Lankan curry – they are both some of the best food we had in 3 weeks on the island, and for much cheaper than any restaurant . We would wholeheartedly come back.
That we had to leave.
This was one of the best places we stayed in Sri Lanka.The rooms were spacious,beds comfortable great water pressure in the showers.Beautiful large balconies and terraces looked out onto palms and banana trees where monkeys passed.It was 5 mins walk to a beautiful quiet beach where we went swimming.You could walk to next door long Mawella beach where a few small bars and restaurants could be found. Delicious breakfast Sri Lankan or English was offered.Abraham was happy to take us in his tuk tuk to nearby beaches and organised a massage and onward travel by taxi for us.

Kokonaisuudessaan (4vrk) kaikki sujui todella hyvin. Henkilökunta ja erityisesti Abraham olivat aivan loistavia ja avuliaita alusta loppuun. Majoituksemme oli n. 75m päässä varsinaisesta päärakennuksesta vierastalossa, joka oli mahtava. Oma pieni piha ja terassi. Huone oli todella siisti. Kylpyhuone iso, ilmastointi toimi moitteetta ja Wi-Fi oli nopea. Tarjolla oli kaksi erilaista aamiaista (suosittelen ottamaan). Länsimaalainen ja Sri Lankalainen. Kummatkin olivat erinomaisia. Päädyimme kolmena aamuna paikalliseen aamiaiseen. Illallisella olimme kaksi kertaa ja kumpikin kokemus oli kaikilla mittareilla erinomainen. Paikan omistaja (Abraham) on todella avulias ja opastaa/kertoo minne kannattaa mennä. Hän järjestää Safarit avaimet käteen periaatteella ja kun lähdimme Abraham ajoi meidät vielä seuraavaan kohteeseen. ***** ja erittäin lämmin suositus.

Confortable et personnel très à l’écoute !
Sehr liebes Personal hat sich sofort gekümmert bei Fragen und Problemen. Das einheimische Frühstück war sehr lecker bei der Familie Abraham. Die Unterkunft liegt perfekt zwischen Tangalle und Hiriketiya sowie an einem schönen Strandabschnitt.
Leider waren die Matratzen etwas hart für unsere Verhältnisse.
We had a great stay at the cabin at Abraham beach house. Really close to the beach and comfortable room with lovely hospitality.
We had a very nice stay at this family villa. Abraham and his family are friendly and helpful hosts and made us feel at home. They were always available if we needed anything. The Sri Lankan breakfast was good and freshly prepared. The house has a green garden with palm trees, and from the balcony you can see birds, squirrels, and sometimes monkeys. Abraham can also help arrange a motorbike for rent, which was very convenient. A calm and pleasant place to stay — recommended.
Мне хочется написать миллион спасибо Аврааму и его семье. Остановились на одну ночь совершено случайно. Нас как будто направил сюда сам всевышний, чтоб вкусить мир доброты и человечности..это было незабываемо. Такая ухоженная территория. Прекрасный красивый пляж В 5 мин ходьбы. супер пляж и море,где совсем нет народа и можно купаться.Если вы думаете ехать ли в этот домик - однозначно да! Вы попадаете в рай, тишину и умиротворение. Это самый добрый и отзывчивый хозяин, самая добрая семья,где тебя слышат и пытаются помочь. Очень вкусные ужины и завтраки. Не ходите никуда и не ищите еду.Здесь безумно и недорого кормит сам хозяин и его семья. У меня как раз в этот день был день рождение, мне всё так организовали - стол, цветы,торт. Я разревелась, когда я вышла и вся семья пела "хеппи бесдей". вообщем писать можно много. Здесь нужно остановиться однозначно.. Релакс и умиротворение
Здесь нет такого. Всё самое лучшее
Gastgeber war sehr nett und zuvorkommend. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber und geräumig.
The room was clean and welcoming, with a nice balcony. The breakfast was excellent and what impressed us most was the staff, who truly went above and beyond. They were incredibly helpful and accommodating, managing to assist us with every request we had. Lovely family, thanks so much for everything!

Bliskosc natury, piekny widok z okna i tarasu. Mozna obserwowac ptaki, wiewiorki i malpy. Mozna wypozyczyc skuter u wlasciciela, ktory jest bardzo pomocny (nie bylo kasku ktory by na mnie pasowal, wiec kupil nowy!). Bylismy 5 nocy i nie chcielismy wyjezdzac ;)
Niestety dosc drogie sniadania, wiec nie skorzystalismy.
A nice wooden house in the backgarden, so a bit away from the road. Clean and cosy. And the owner does everything to make you feel at home!
Izredno prijazni gostitelji, urejena hiša z lepim vrtom. Občutek, da si na samem, ampak čisto blizu plaže, avtobusne postaje.
Der Gastgeber war sehr freundlich und hat uns viele Tipps gegeben. Das Essen in der Unterkunft war auch sehr lecker. Die Terrasse mit Blick ins Grüne war super! Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt!
It is close to a very quiet beach Hiru beach so if you want some solitude this is the place
Bed was too soft for us
Abraham and his family are such great hosts. Their house is next to a beautiful beach, their breakfasts are super tasty, and they are always happy to help e.g. with transport around the area.
Everything was perfect. Abraham and his wife there were super gentle with us, helping us in everything. They also provide meals for a good price. Our room was beautiful in a super relaxed enviroment, just a few steps near a fantastic beach. We recommend it and we wish we can be back soon. Thank you!!
I can not say anything bad!
Honestly can't recommend a stay here enough. Abraham and his family are generous, kind and interesting people. They have a lot of time for their guests and have done everything to make the rooms as beautiful as possible. If you like beautiful, quiet and very peaceful places it's a must!!
You’re surrounded by bush and trees and everywhere you look there is life; we’ve seen monkeys, squirrels, guanas, bats and all kind of birds. Apart from the beautiful location, the room was clean and cozy, with good airconditioning and a big mosquito net. It’s doesn’t feels like a hotel, but a place you go to wind down and enjoy the quiet beaches which are a 3 minute walk away. Abraham and his family are incredibly sweet and gave us some good tips about the area. Food (which they made themselves) is amazing and a good way to be introduced by Sri Lankan food. We stayed 4 days but wished we stayed longer. Everything together a hidden gem!
Close to a little beach that is mostly empty for peace and quiet. Incredibly nice boat that we were able to rent a motorbike from. Nice room with a lovely balcony.
Abraham Beach House was recommended by a fellow traveller and we were not disappointed. We received a warm welcome from our hosts who were kind, attentive and helpful throughout our four nights stay. Our accommodation was a detached 'Cabana' which was EXCELLENT. The beautiful sandy beach was a short walk down a track, very clean and almost empty. We were sad to say goodbye this morning. Thank you Abraham and your family for a relaxing, enjoyable stay.
Nice and clean rooms in an absolutely stunning location near a quiet and beautiful beach.
The family are very sweet and helpful. The location is quiet and peaceful and very close to an empty beach. The Sri Lankan curry and rice was outstanding and we enjoyed the fresh juices. The aircon was quiet and the hot water worked.
Great hosts. Quiet and lovely location.
We suposed to stay just for One night but we decided to stay 4! The location Is great and the house too! The plus It has been the greeting of the family that makes you feel part of them! Food Amazing! Highly recomend!
Good location just few minutes from beautiful beach
Clean, comfirtable tooms with large balcony. Very nice and friendly host. Very good food .
Short distance to the beach. Air conditioned rooms in very hot weather.
Nothing of consequence
Quality of furnishings and detail to eye and the peace and tranquility. Food and hospitality excellent.
We chose the Deluxe Double Room with balcony and it was a super pleasant stay. The room is spacious and equipped with a good bed and a very good mosquito net. The air conditioning worked very well and was nicely quiet. In the bathroom there is nice warm water. On the terrace there are chairs and a sun bed. The room was very clean and there were no moisture problems (!!) 😊 We had breakfast at the property every day and ate almost every evening. The food was very delicious and the owners go to great lengths to make the stay perfect. We were also able to park our tuktuk on the property without any problems. We have extended our stay from 2 nights to 7 nights.
There is nothing negative. The stay was one of the best on our entire trip
Simply one of the best stays we had in Sri Lanka, we directly prolonged our stay! - super nice and welcoming host family - nice, very clean and comfortable room (we had a big balcony. The other rooms also seemed similarly good!) - comfy bed - the host mother is cooking one of the best rice and curries and very freshly for a very reasonable price in big portions. Also the breakfast was great! - located very quietly outside of Tangalle. There is not much around except a fantastic small beach. We have been nearly alone there. You can walk along the beach to the next bigger one also - you can rent a scooter directly from the hosts
Nothing, exceptional place to stay!
The family is very nice and cooked for us so many times! the breakfast was so rich and the room with balcony was very clean and had everything that we needed! We also rented a scooter from this place and explored the beaches but the best one was just 4 mins walk from the house!! You can be alone on this beach, swim and don’t be bothered by anyone else, this was the real secret/silent/lonely beach on the south coast! I liked the vibe here it was so quiet and peaceful with a little bit of jungle feeling near the beach! Definitely recommend if you want a getaway somewhere where you can be alone but also fell like you don’t need to stress yourself where to eat next or where to buy some drinks cause the family is there for you!
Very nice and clean and friendly. Stylish rooms, cosy beds, good food for good price. Balcony jungle view with monkeys, colorful birds and cute squirrels. Near and empty beaches. Perfect location to stay for a few nights and days !

Can’t recommend Abraham beach house enough. I immediately felt at home and part of the family. The room was spacious and clean. 200m from a beautiful beach and near to other great beaches for snorkelling and swimming. The breakfasts were huge and delicious. Tropical fruits, fresh fruit juice and a choice of Sri Lankan or western mains. Such good value for money! We ate breakfast watching the wildlife in the garden including monkeys and a wide variety of birds. It’s the kind of place you could stay at for weeks and weeks, a little slice of heaven. Thank you family, can’t wait to see you again!
Nothing, it was 10/10!!
Perfect place to stay for a few days. Spotlessly clean. Nice, friendly, helpful hosts. Prasard arranged a scooter for us no problem, and helped carry our bags to the main road for us when we left & waited to see that we càught the right bus. Good menu selection from the guesthouse at fair prices. 10 mimute bus ride from Tangalle town Beautiful secluded, deserted beach just a couple of munutes walk down the lane. We booked the basic room but upgraded to a room at the back with private terrace & garden for a few dollars more Worth it! No hesitatiòn in awarding a 10.
Nothing. All good.
Absolutely everything. The property is really beautiful and so peaceful. We really enjoyed watching and listening to the many different species of birds, relaxing on the balcony and exploring the nearby beach. The rooms are clean and decorated beautifully, the hot water works and the beds are comfy. We also saw very few mosquitos despite being surrounded by nature. Prasad and his family are lovely. They really went out of their way to help us and make sure we had the most amazing time in Tangalle. The beach less than 5 minutes walk away is deserted and beautiful. There are also more beaches nearby, each with their own unique character. If you want to learn surfing, these beaches are perfect! They also did some laundry for us, gave us a lift to the beach early in the morning, and let us try so many different kinds of fruit and local dishes, cooked by our favourite chef in Sri Lanka, Anoma! They also took time out of their busy day to arrange for our travel onwards to Udawalawe by tuktuk, and let us use an empty room whilst we waited for it to arrive.
This homestay is well and truly a home away from home. The owners go out of their way to help in every way possible. The evening meals are very good and there is a wide variety of choices. The breakfast has options, and it is delicious as well. The beach is only about 200 meters away and it is secluded with just a few people there. I highly recommend this place. It is the best we have had in Sri Lanka.
NOTHING
Home cooked food fantastic. This is a family run guest house,a little bit off the beaten track but near the Tangalle Road,so easy move around In addition there is a beautiful deserved tropical beach at the end of the lane. It's a gem..
I liked EVERYTHING.
Abraham and his family made our stay very unique, it was the best one of our journey! We came back 2 times during our trip. Rooms are very clean, all the food - both breakfast and dinner - was very good, the nearby beach is very isolated and beautiful (most of the time we were alone or only with the fishermen), the area is very peaceful and all of the family members are very very kind and helpful. It will be very hard to find another place like this in the area, i guess impossible. There are different stores nearby and for the market you can go to tangalle, which is close and convenient by bus or tuktuk. First choice for us if we come back to SL :-)
