Hey Lala Talalla

Le personnel, les équipements.

Proche de la route.

Best Hotel I had in Srilanka! Its close to the most beautiful quiet beach Lovely family and the food is delicious The room is very comfortable and stylish Super clean and beautiful garden

Feisty cat :)

Wunderschönes, sauberes Zimmer. Herzlicher Empfang von der ganzen Familie. Die Famile war immer sehr hilfsbereit. Wir konnten sogar unser Kleider zum Waschen geben. Das Frühstück und Abendessen war fantastisch 😍

Alles tiptop!

Merveilleux séjour chez Lala que nous ne sommes pas prêts d'oublier. Nous y avons réservé une chambre suite au très élogieux avis sur booking et nous n'avons vraiment pas été déçus. Le lieu est très accueillant avec un jardin très fleuri  les chambres sont très propres. Nous avons été accueillis par Dulaj (le fils de Lala) qui nous a donner de précieuses informations sur les environs et les activités à faire à proximité (Il a géré tous nos déplacements). Lala est  une femme merveilleuse au petit soin pour les voyageurs. Elle a toujours le sourire. Elle est toujours disponible tout en étant discrète. C'est aussi une excellente cuisinière. Les petits-déjeuners sont délicieux et très copieux ainsi que le repas servi sur place à la demande. Lala nous a donné de nombreux conseils sur la cuisine Sri-Lankaise que nous allons tenter de refaire à la maison. La plage d'Alalla est magnifique et très proche de la maison 2-3 minutes à pied. Notre séjour chez Lala est de loin le meilleur séjour qu'on est eu au  Sri-Lanka (je ne pensais pas que l'on pouvait  trouver encore mieux des précédents pourtant déjà très bien). Notre plus grand regret est de ne pas avoir réservé plus tôt pour rester un peu plus longtemps dans ce petit paradis où la gentillesse et la bienveillance règnent. Je ne peux que vous conseiller et surtout vous souhaiter de loger chez cette charmante petite famille que nous ne sommes pas prêts d'oublier ! Éric & laure

Ne pas être resté plus longtemps avec cette formidable famille que nous ne sommes pas prêts d'oublier !

Lala and her family are truly wonderful. They fulfilled all our wishes and gave us great tips. We felt incredibly comfortable during our stay. Lala prepared an amazingly delicious breakfast for us. The room was very clean, and we really appreciated the proximity to Hiriketiya / Dickwella as well as the quiet beach in Talalla. I’m sure we will come back again.

The beautiful environment, comfort and hosts kindness

Family home by the main road has a brand new 3 bedroom addition behind it with a great sitting and kitchen area with a full size fridge and nice porches. Beautiful garden. Lalla is the mom, and she and her family are phenomenal. Everything about the rooms is well done. Great breakfast. Loving attention to everything, including guests. The beach is lovely, 1km of great sand with a half dozen sleepy eateries.

It’s a 50 meter walk along the busy road to a quiet road to the quiet end of the beach, and there is a modest but tolerable amount of road noise.

I loved my stay at Hey Lala Talalla — it felt like a home away from home. The guesthouse is beautifully kept: the rooms were very clean, comfortable, and spacious, with all the needed essentials. The location is great— just a short, peaceful walk to Talalla Beach, which is perfect for relaxing days by the sea, away from crowds. What truly made my stay special was the warm hospitality of the host family. From the moment I arrived, they made me feel welcome and took great care to ensure I had everything I needed. Breakfast and dinner were delicious and homey. Overall, this was one of the most memorable stays in Sri Lanka — highly recommended for anyone seeking comfort, great hosts, and an authentic local experience.

I only wish I had booked a room with A/C, as it was quite hot. The only windows that can be opened are the glass doors, and as a solo female traveler, I was hesitant to leave them open at night.

This is a beautiful base camp to explore the region. The nearby beach is beautiful and the owners are very likeable. Lala‘s food is amongst the best I had in Sri Lanka. I would definitely come back.

I was scared because it is a place without many reviews but 0 regrets. owners (Lala and Abu) are absolutely awesome , you can also request lunch/dinner/ breakfast (tasty and decent portions), surprisingly no mosquitos here, all ultrahypermegaclean..

really hot, an AC would work like a miracle, not much to do around and Thalalla beach is a little bit boring compared to others..

Sehr herzlicher Empfang von Lala, deren Lachen einfach ansteckend ist. Die Unterkunft ist neu, äusserst sauber und hat ein wunderschönes Bad. Lala pflegt den Garten sehr liebevoll, so dass man dort gerne verweilt. Der Strand ist 5min von der Unterkunft entfernt. Lala ist eine äusserst aufmerksame Gastgeberin. Das Abendessen war unglaublich gut zu einem sehr fairen Preis. Thanks for having us Lala!

The host family, breakfast and dinner, the property, the room (I really liked that it had a wardrobe, a closet and plenty of hangers) , the furniture, the cleanliness, the supermarket right across the street (even though I didn't need it), the garden, the terrace, Lala's tea....

Everything was great :)

I had such a wonderful stay at Hey Lala Talalla! The location is perfect—just a short walk to the stunning Talalla Beach, which feels like a hidden gem. The guesthouse itself is clean, cozy, and surrounded by a lovely garden that adds to the peaceful vibe. What truly made the stay exceptional was the hospitality. Dulaj and his family are incredibly warm and welcoming, always ready to help with anything. His mother’s cooking is out of this world—homemade Sri Lankan meals that I still dream about! The room was spacious, with a comfortable bed and a nice balcony where I could relax with a book. I really appreciated the shared kitchen and the reliable Wi-Fi, plus the bonus of massages and bike rentals available right on site. If you’re looking for a quiet, authentic experience near the beach with amazing hosts, this is the place. I’ll definitely be coming back!

Stay in Hey Lala was incredible time. The whole family of host were incredible and so nice. They make our stay at place special. Especially Lala is outstanding woman always smileing, happy and ready to help when it's needed. Also son Dulaj and Lala husband were great too. About accommodation, building is new and fresh and keeping on great condition. Rooms are very clean and spacious. Mosqito net is avaiable when you ask. Standard was great and if you add price ratio event more better. There is common space with living rooms, kitchen with all needed equipment, balcony and so good garden to spend evening there. Really recommend this place. And greetings from our family.

Our best stay whilst in Sri Lanka. Dulaj and his family were exceptional hosts. The room was very clean, comfortable and fantastic value. The breakfast was amazing. The garden that the property is set within is beautiful. Highly recommend. Thanks Dulaj!

Staying with Lala, Salier and their son Dulaj (sorry the names are probably spelt incorrectly) has been the most wonderful and beautiful experience of my five weeks in Sri Lanka. If you want to experience the true kindness and nature of the people here I can only recommend to stay with the family for a few days. They have been so kind and accommodating and just so lovely. Lala even showed me how to prepare Daal, as it’s my favourite dish in Sri Lanka. I hardly ever write reviews but I really do mean it. I’m so happy to have stayed with them!

Absolutely amazing stay! The owners were incredibly friendly and made sure everything was well taken care of throughout my visit. The hospitality was top-notch, the food was delicious, and everything was spotlessly clean. Truly a perfect experience.

the place is literally unbelievable. We stayed in a fancy hotel over 120EU in Kandy, and this one for 25Eu about a day including breakfast and dinner was 5 times better. This may be the best deal for visitors to Sril Lanian in the entire nation. the food is gourmet level food. we had numerous curries that ranged from spicy to barely any spice. each meal was different and beyond any other restauratn food we had eated in quality. LaLa is the chef and her son Dulaj the manager. Aside from the food the roomwas magnificent. we had a private outside porch with lounge chairs. airconditioning and fan. I have bought two avocadoes and LaLa made an avacado ice cold drink that was spectacular. Ev erything was new clean and soothing. There is no better hotel in Sri Lanka.

we went to the beach about a five minute walk from the hotel and got sunburned. otherwise we had faulous waves and the beach at our end had no other people surfing. very relaxed area. we both got sunburned that is what we didn't like

Hey Lala is a family owned guesthouse, very familiar, modern, cozy and clean. Dulaj and his family really make you feel home away from home making sure to offer and organise everything you need. The rooms are clean and tiday, there’s hot water showers and a really good A/C. Hey Lala is situated at the main road close to the beach, just a min walk. Lala, the mother is a fantastic chef and I truly recommend having breakfast and dinner there as she is offering the best meals I had in Sri Lanka. They offer laundry service and Dulaj even organised a whole trip to the national park with driver and everything! The most beautiful thing about Hey Lala is the warm hearted family: you will never forget the hospitality and Lalas beautiful smile, which feels like sunshine all day! The beach is empty and beautiful, there’s also a yoga place 10min walk if you’re into yoga. Just beautiful! I decided to come back with a friend for another two nights, cause I loved it so much! Thank you for everything!

We recently had the most wonderful stay at HEY LALA! From the moment we arrived, we felt completely at home. The space was not just cozy and impeccably clean but radiated a warmth that made our experience truly unforgettable. The hosts went above and beyond to ensure our stay was perfect. They welcomed us like family, always attentive to our needs while giving us the privacy to relax. We had the chance to connect with them and were touched by their kindness, generosity, and the care they put into every detail of the accommodation. The location was perfect for us—peaceful yet close enough to explore Talalla beach Waking up to the serene views of their garden and enjoying the thoughtful touches throughout the property made every day a delight. This wasn’t just a place to stay; it was an experience filled with beautiful memories. We can’t recommend Lala enough and her cooking skills. We had the greatest food in Sri Lanka while we stayed there. Thank you for making us feel like part of the family!

Accommodation is in a newly built house. The rooms are clean, fully equipped. It is not far to Talalla beach. Both Dulaj and his parents are very nice hosts. Dulaj's mother is an excellent cook. The meals were really delicious. It is also possible to order lunch and dinner.

Everything was ok.
