Vibushan Guest House, hotel in Nilaveli

Situated 600 metres from Nilaveli Beach, Vibushan Guest House offers accommodation with a terrace, as well as a garden.

Amazing hosts, did everything to let me feel extremely welcome and at home. They are currently constructing a new restaurant and even stopped the constructions while I was there to not cause too much noise and keep the privacy. Invited me for a delicious sri lankan rice & curry for dinner and always offered tea. Great place to stay when in Nilaveli!

Villa Nilaveli Cabana, hotel in Nilaveli

Villa Nilaveli Cabana has 3 cabanas (Villa Nilaveli Cabana Cabanas) which are available for rent. Each Cabana has a king-size bed, air conditioning, ceiling fan, mosquito net and an en suite bathroom....

We had a lovely & relaxing stay in the Nilaveli Cabanas. It's a beautiful place right at the beach in the calmer area of Nilaveli. With only three cabanas, it is super peaceful and perfect to deconnect! Amal is a very helpful host! He arranged us scooters, a trip to pigeon island (which was amazing) and a dolfin watching tour! He also cooked us an amazing seafood barbecue diner and arranged a table on the beach with a great view on the sea. What more can we wish for... We can really recommend to stay here! Thank you for the hospitality, Amal!

The host was attentive and always present, ready to answer any questions you might have. They also helped us to organise our departure to the bus station via Tuk Tuk.

Review for Guesthouse in Trinco I recently stayed at this guesthouse in Trinco and had a pleasant experience. The property was reasonably clean, and the staff were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making the stay even more enjoyable. The location is great, making it convenient for exploring the area. It’s excellent value for money, offering a comfortable stay without breaking the budget. Overall, I would highly recommend this guesthouse to anyone visiting Trinco. I’ll definitely consider staying here again in the future!

NR Villa Nilaveli, hotel in Nilaveli

Set in Nilaveli and only 800 metres from Nilaveli Beach, NR Villa Nilaveli offers accommodation with garden views, free WiFi and free private parking.

The owner was nice, very welcoming. He arranged a transport from Trincomalee for a reasonable price. We were offered tea. We had towels and we had a good WiFi. The house is a few minutes walk from the beach, very reasonable. The owner said he had a boat and could arrange a trip to Pigeon island, but finally we didn't go and we stayed on the beach in Nilaveli.

    The location in Nilaveli is perfect. The beach is 5 minutes walking. It's a very quiet area, perfect to relax. The home stay has a good vibes atmosphere, with a garden with "hamacas", and full day open kitchen. The staff was nice and friendly. The room was very cheap and it has all the basic things you may need. I arrived very early and they stored my luggage, also in the departure day.

    We took extremely cheap room without AC for about 10 dolars for two persons for 1 night. We got what we paid for.... There was no problems just bring your own toilet paper...,.. Locality is good less than 5 minutes to the beach. There are few good restaurants near guesthouse too.

    Located on the beach, the location is ideal. Overall it’s quiet and the room is comfortable and large. The AC works well and there is ample space and seating in the room. There are well kept gardens on the property with lots of interesting birds - we also appreciated the mini fridge and water provided in the room and the drying racks outside. The host is friendly and helpful which we appreciated

    Nice laid-back guesthouse with rooms looking onto a private garden. The location is great, very quiet and only a 2 minutes walk to Nilaveli beach. Our bedroom and bathroom were clean and nicely decorated. Unfortunately, the restaurant was closed but we could still have breakfast there. There are a few other very good restaurants within walking distance. We had a very relaxing stay there!

    This was the best accommodation I had in Sri Lanka so far. The room was big and very clean. The owners are so kind and answered all my questions and the Guesthouse is only a few minutes away from the quiet Nilaveli Beach. The breakfast was delicious!!

    We enjoyed the silence, harmony, friendliness and beautiful area in Amal’s Paradies! Perfect location to slow down and to discover Nilaveli, Trincomalee, Uppuveli,… Amal is a very nice host. Always helpful, available before and during our stay. We will def come back to this beautiful place. It was also very nice to see that the extremely lovable dog was allowed to have such a nice and quiet place to live. We really enjoyed his presence. a soul of an animal.

    I recently stayed at the beach hut property and had an absolutely delightful experience. The hut is charmingly designed and just steps away from the pristine beach, offering stunning ocean views. The hosts were welcoming and provided excellent local recommendations, making our stay even more enjoyable. Their hospitality truly stood out. Overall, I highly recommend this beach hut for a serene and relaxing getaway. I can’t wait to return!

    Quiet and great location in Nilaveli, near the beach and a couple of good restaurants. The host and his family were very kind and helped us to arrange a scooter, snorkelling kits, breakfast, and other tips. Big, comfy, fresh and clean room. The little garden and terrace was perfect to chill out. We had a lovely time!
