Everything. This is my third time at Sun Vivanta Ressort. Usually when I am visitig down south, I definetly stay there. The staff , room and budget are worth enough for me. I will come again soon with my family. Thank you for the hospitality you have given.
Nothing.
La struttura è a pochi passi dalla spiaggia e da ristoranti e supermercati, ma non essendo sulla via principale la sera è molto silenziosa. La camera era spaziosa e pulita, i letti comodissimi. Il proprietario gentilissimo, si e alzato a prepararci il the alle 5.30 perché avevamo un’escursione alle 6.00. Lo consiglio!
EVERYTHING IS AMAZING AND PERFECT ABOUT THIS PROPERTY. I HIGHLY REQUEST TO VISIT AND STAY. BOTH UNCLE AND AUNT WERE SO SO GOOD TO MAKE OUR STAY COMFORTABLE AND WITHOUT ANY DIFFICULTY
THERE IS NOTHING TO BE DISLIKED. NOT EVEN A SINGLE THING. EVERYTHING IS PERFECT GOOD AND AMAZING
los dueños fueron encantadores y súper atentos, algo que agradecimos mucho. La habitación estaba preparada para cuando llegamos y muy limpia
Room Excellent
Caring Excellently
Очень хорошее расположение. Проживание с семьей, но это абсолютно комфортно. Можно воспользоваться холодильником и плитой, есть горячая вода. Очень вкусные завтраки. Рекомендую😊
Very kind and welcoming family
Merci à toute la famille pour leur accueil ! La proximité avec la plage et le centre ville est parfaite. Les petits dej étaient trop copieux et changeaient tous les jours :) super séjour merci encore
The breakfast was delicious. Close to Beach.The host family is kind and friendly. Really wanna go back with my partner.

朝早い出発の為に朝食を包んで持たせてくれた。
puliti e comodi i letti. bagno nella norma. pulito. staff super gentile. colazioni abbondanti e tipiche.
la stanza un poco buia... ma questo non è una nota negativa. metterei una zanzariera alla finestra del bagno.....ma a parte questo la struttura è buona
Lovely hosts. Great location Very good breakfast
La familia nos hizo sentir como en casa, fueron muy respetuosos y siempre con una sonrisa. Estuvimos una semana y cada día tuvimos un desayuno diferente. La localización fue perfecta porque estaba fuera de la avenida principal, pero a menos de 5 min andando.
The owners are extremely kind and helpful. The breakfast is delicious and very generous.
The room is located on the ground floor, with windows facing the shared courtyard. It is right by the entrance, next to the table where other guests have breakfast, so it can be quite noisy as it is a passage area. I couldn’t keep the windows open because there were no shutters and the garden was full of mosquitoes. The hot water in the bathroom was not working and, since the bathroom is also used by the family, on one occasion I found it quite dirty. The house overall is not very tidy.
So close to the beach without the main street noise, so there's easy walkable access to restaurants and shops as well. The owners are very lovely people! The bed was comfy, aircon works well and they offer a good Sri Lankan style breakfast!!
The bathroom cleanliness must be improved, , the hot shower was okay, WiFi sign wasn't working very well.
Great place and friendly staff
The family was very good to us, they did everything they could for us and even extra, we felt it was good value as the breakfasts were something else, it was comfortable, beautiful yard and there was a mongoose, and a peacock there, nice fruit trees, very good people.
Kitchen could be cleaner as was a shared kitchen, problem with air conditioner leaking water but they were on it right away.
Perfect homestay , great food Very near to beach 400m You can take tuk tuk to matara bus stand and get express way bus to drop at Colombo airport in 3 hours one person cost 1400 LKR in buss
Nice people with smiles
Los host son encantadores, las habitaciones estan genial, agua caliente que siempre va bien. Desayunos increibles. Me he sentido como en casa.
I recently stayed at Sun Vivanta and had an outstanding experience from start to finish. The staff were incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always ready to assist with a smile. The check-in process was smooth and efficient, and I was impressed by the warm hospitality.
Les hôtes sont très aimables et attentionnés. La chambre est correcte et l’emplacement idéal pour accéder à Mirissa Beach.
Really friendly staff and a safe environment. Clean bathroom and a nice little room.
Yes, I can see the beach with its blue surfing waters, coconut trees, and hills. The sunrise is stunning, and I love Mirissa Beach. This hotel, our family’s happy place, has a wonderful, spacious room, and there are many visitors from different countries—wow! Mirissa Beach is a world-famous island destination, known for its big, beautiful surfing waves. I hope to come again next year.”
There are Hospitality, nice place to visit.
Amazing and friendly hosts. Great location. Near by to all the locations. Highly recommended. Have opted whale watching from the contact they suggested. It was amazing.
The family that owns the place is lovely and they make you feel very comfortable. The breakfast is great and homemade with fruits and coffee that they grow in their garden. I was offered the AC room upon arrival and that was a great choice. The owner booked me a whale spotting tour for a great price.
The best place to stay
Nothing
Great location It was a local house where the people were very generous and kind They allowed us to use their kitchen to cook The room had mosquito nets and air conditioning The bathroom and toilet were very large and there was a possibility to wash clothes The breakfast was very delicious and they could serve you a different breakfast every day according to your wishes It was close to the bus station The hot water in the bathroom sometimes did not work There was a lizard in the room There was no shampoo, soap or other washing services The facilities in the room were old Overall, the staff were so respectful and kind that if I go to Mirissa again one day, I will definitely visit them
Freindly staff Calm place 100% cleaning
Lovely hosts, they made me feel very welcome! Location was great , close to lovely restaurants, shops and the beach! WiFi was good!
Nothing!
We liked every thing. We may come again.
İnternet connection has problem. There may be shampo in the bath.
This is a very well located accommodation. It is like the pictures. The hosts are very kind, helpful and discreet. The hosts can organize activities or transport. The breakfast is very good, varied and in large quantity. The beds are comfortable. The Wifi is quite fast and stable. The air conditioning and the fan work well.
The bathroom should be completely redone as soon as possible. Marissa is a bit like a tourist trap.
Breakfast was delicious. Highly recommended this place to anyone who is willing to stay freely and worthy.
nothing
They gave me the best meal
The host was amazing, so kind and helpful. I really recommend to stay here if you going to Merissa:)
Very warm and welcoming hosts. Breakfast was lovely. Always willing to go the extra mile to accommodate us. Nothing was too much of a problem., extra towels for beach, hairdryer etc Did our laundry at good rate. Gave us good advise on best way to explore Sri Lanka. Room was basic but very clean
THIS IS THE BEST HOMESTAY! Everything was so clean and fresh and the couple that has the place are amazing. They cook you almost anything you want for breakfast and help you with everything. Thank you so much.
Friendly owners and excellent location.
Mosquito bites but they are everywhere in Srilanka
Lovely family. Very warm and helpful, they can be trusted.
I liked everything
The location is very central. Everything is walking distance - spa, grocery, beach, restaurants, bus stop. The staff are very friendly and accommodating - very good people. Generous amount of breakfast fresh from their garden. They also have a very cute labrador retriever. The bed is comfortable and the toilet is huge. Hot shower functions well. I highly recommend this place.
Nothing.
The room was very clean and big. They are so sweet and nice! Always taking care of you always with a smile they even did the laundry and cleaned my room even for a short stay. Definitely recommend!
Nothing that I didn't like! Just for the solo travelers it's a small peaceful house so don't expect parties or socials with other travelers.
Delicious Traditional Sri Lankan Dishes Room cleanliness
Excellent studio apartment with two wide 180 cm beds, air conditioning, hot water, very clean, new bed linen. The hosts are wonderful people who fed our family pancakes with coffee in the morning.
The hosts were so warm and welcome I instantly felt comfortable as a solo female traveller. The room was spotless with a comfy bed, air con and fan. There was plenty of storage for all my belongings and lots of locks that made me feel really safe. In the morning, there was a lovely breakfast set up for me with a range of fruit, roti and tea. I would definitely stay again!
good location
ugly room, poor breakfast
Property owner has received us very well and accommodated our request for Srilankan breakfast and it was very tasty.
The hosts were amazing and very accommodating, no request was too much to ask! The room and bathroom was spotless and the a/c was fantastic! This place has great facilities and offers laundry at a very reasonable price too! It’s also a great location for everything Mirissa has to offer. The breakfast was delicious too. We weren’t feeling well at the end of our stay and our host was so kind and helpful. We stayed for 4 nights and would 10/10 recommend Sun Vivanta Resort if you are staying in Mirissa.
The host was very nice and always wanted help us. He gives us towels for beach.
The bed was hard ans uncomfortable. The mosquitoes net was dirty.
We had a lovely big spacious room with both aircon & a fan which was so welcome in the intense heat. Our host were fabulous, so kind & helpful.
Nothing
It is very close to city center and peacfull at night. Host is very friendly and willing to help. We had huge bathroom.
Internet connection was breaking, they could use more powerfull one. And water was not hot, even though it was possible to place the button to hot, there was cool water, but not freezing one. After a long day it was nice to have a colder shower, but for wasing my hair, I would prefer to have it warmer.
A wonderful family and place to stay during my trip to Mirissa. Great breakfast too.
The owners, their cute dog. The location is great, there are many great restaurants around and you’re just a few minutes away from the beach and a bus stop. They also let us check in early for free which was super nice of them.
I wish that there was an enclosed area for the shower because the whole bathroom gets wet when you take a shower. But this is a common thing in Sri Lanka
Location was closer to beach and shops
Ventilation in restroom.
incredible

Was the best accommodation I stayed in Sri Lanka, so that I extended my stay there.The host’s are so lovely and nice, I really liked it there and it felt a little bit like home. The breakfast was also very tasty, and every day a little bit different.
Very nice and budget place close to everything in town
We had a really nice stay here. The owners are lovely and super friendly and helpful. Their dog is the happiest girl!! We were given tea as soon as we arrived and coffee and bananas every morning. We also had our laundry done which was amazing. Room was clean and comfortable and the bathroom was really big. Hot water in the shower too, which was fab. Thank you for a lovely stay.
The hosts are so considerate and lovely (I can't emphasize enough on that), it truly felt like being at home. The breakfast is great but the coffee was my favorite. Would come back if I get the chance. It is only a 5-6 mins walk from the beach and is in an actually a very nice residential area.
Everything is just perfect. Owners of the property are very pleasant and warmly welcomed us. Walking distance to the beach. Breakfast is good. Best value for money.
Nothing
Super friendly hosts, very clean room and tasty breakfast.
There was some humidity in the room. A lot of heavy rain lately in this area, that’s why the humidity. I believe if one travels during the dry season this won’t be a problem at all :-)
The owner is incredibly friendly and does his best to make your stay exceptional. Breakfast was amazing! The room is comfortable and quiet, AC and warm shower working very well. We stayed here for several days and felt very welcome.
The location was very easy to find, the sea is a five minute walk, the beach is beautiful. They ask me in advance what I eat for breakfast and when I wake up in the morning, they immediately offer me tea, coffee and food. Wonderful people, very sweet, pleasant and kind.💙
Everything was perfect 🤗🙏🏻
We enjoyed our stay in Sun Vivanta. The host was very kind and helped us with what to do in Mirissa and the best timings.
I would have prefered boiled tea instead of tea bags, but the breakfast was good.
Very Good Host. He will bend over backwards to go out of his way to help.
Nothing not to like.
Good located, very friendly and attentive owners, good breakfast and big comfortable bed.
Because of a closed room, smelled a little bit like humidity, but nothing critical.
My one-night stay quickly turned into ten days in Mirissa thanks to Sunil and his family and their spectacular homestay. They made me feel at home in every possible way. I especially enjoyed the breakfast with varied fresh veggies, fruits and curries. Every morning Sunil made sure to prepare a different and special breakfast. My room and other facilities were very clean, tidy and comfortable. I particularly appreciated there was no humidity in the room and that the bathroom was cleaned daily. The room had a garden view so I enjoyed the freshness of the greenery and sounds of birds every day. If you are looking for a quiet break with a nice local family who will give you both privacy and company, whichever you prefer, this homestay is an ideal choice. I slept very well, tried homemade SriLankan dishes, enjoyed fresh fruits from the garden, and had many interesting conversations with the family. My room had a detached bathroom that is easily and quickly accessed through the family's living room. Honestly, I didn't find this inconvenient nor uncomfortable at all because from the day one I felt welcome and at home, like a part of the family. The door of the living room is closed during the night, naturally, but it's not locked so you can access the bathroom at any time with no problem. Finally, the location was a perfect match for me as well: a quiet home surrounded with a big garden but still very close to restaurants with great local or Western food, shops and spectacular clean beaches where you can go surfing, whale watching, snorkeling with turtles or just sunbathing and swimming. There is also a bus stop two-minute walk away where you can easily catch buses to Weligama, Galle etc. that run throughout the day. All in all, probably one of the best places to stay in Mirissa, and for an affordable price. I will most certainly come again and hopefully next time stay even longer 😌
There is really nothing I could complain about🙌👌
Very nice place and very nice owners. I felt like in a grandma village. Great location - few minutes to a beach. Extreamly friendly dog and a bird nest right inside hall - just amazing. Good outside area
Very friendly family and amazing location! The room and bathroom were clean. The breakfast was also delicious! The owner even drove us to a far bus station when we left! Would only recommend!
-Amazing and super nice host. The place felt like home and we didn’t want to leave - Nice room with big and comfortable bed, AC, bathroom with hot water, huge closet and table where you can work. - There is a kitchen where you can cook - super friendly dog that will let you pet her belly :)
amazing hosts! very kind and friendly. they drove us to the bus station on our last day. breakfast was good and they showed concern when my children didn’t eat much on the first morning asking what they would prefer on the second day which was thoughtful and kind.
I think a plug in bug repellent would have been good as a few bugs around.
Amazing local breakfast - the best curry I have had in our 3 weeks so far in Sri Lanka. The family were so helpful and kind, organising a whale watching tour for us at a great price, doing some laundry (again at a good price). Nice quiet location, short walk to restaurants and the beach. And an adorable dog!
western breakfast is also nice but simple and smaller, we had this once. The door to the room is quite thin so when another guest sits outside in the evening sound travels easily.
Very quiet place with fairly large garden, at a few minutes walk to the beach. They serve a basic but good breakfast, and they have a very happy dog.
