RoaBaa Guesthouse, hotel in Batticaloa

Offering quiet street views, RoaBaa Guesthouse is an accommodation located in Batticaloa, 3.2 km from Dutch Fort Batticaloa and 5 km from Batticaloa Lighthouse.

Naval was a great host. Such a kind man. Helped with location and where to get off of the bus on arrival. Helped with bikes, especially when I got a flat tyre. Water top up free, as and when. Just seemed like a genuine guy.

Coastal villa, hotel in Batticaloa

Situated in Batticaloa, 300 metres from Kallady Beach and 2.5 km from Batticaloa Railway Station, Coastal villa offers a private beach area and air conditioning.

😍 I booked Coastal Villa, Kallady in Batticaloa based on the reviews and ratings while travelling, as I was looking for a decent place to stay in Batticaloa during my visit. My criteria for accommodation are simple: it should be affordable, offer a clean room and bathroom, and provide good food, as I don't spend much time in the room. Coastal Villa, Kallady, Batticaloa, exceeded my expectations in every regard. Firstly, my host, Anurahavan, his mother and father were wonderful. He contacted me via text after I made the reservation and kindly offered to pick me up from the railway station. Upon my arrival, he greeted me with tea and cookies, engaging in a friendly chat to learn more about me and understand my needs for the stay and my travel plans. Although I had originally booked the room for just one day, Rahavan spoke with the next guest who had reserved the room and arranged for me to stay a few extra hours. He also provided helpful advice on the best places to visit during my limited time in the area, as well as recommended restaurants for a good meal. Rahavan even arranged a tuk-tuk to take me to Passikudha, Batticaloa early the next morning, packed a delicious breakfast, and ensured I had everything I needed for my travelling. His father and mother were fantastic and a awesome family became a good friends, and they managed to show me several notable sites in the area printed on the Menu Cards, including Batticaloa Fort, Lighthouse despite my short stay. Rahavan seemed to know many people in the town and was incredibly helpful throughout my visit. I highly recommend Coastal Villa is a suitable and valuable for all what I have spent are for its worthiness. I thank to Anurahavan and his parents for cooking me a delicious food during my stay.

Sugi is a very nice person, he made me feel comfortable and took care from the first moment. He comunicated with me in the phone, to know when I'm arriving to peek me up from the train. Nice minimal room with personal shower and toilet, and a ventilater. I arrived late with the train, and almoat everything was closed, so Sugi took me with he's scooter to find a place to eat. Next day Sugi and he's family made me a lunch, traditional rice and curry, very tasty. Nice place and real family experience, spanding some time with them, the kids, his wife and grandmother, they all were very nice to me :)

Amazing host, very kind and helpful. We got to choose our room between the two available. Great location near the beach, but if you go early morning there are fishermen and you can't swim. Good value for money.

    probably the only place in Batticaloa with a traditional open house and veranda with the classic view of Batticaloa lagoon with net fishing catamarans and fort a home stay rather than a nobody in a mega hotel complex and unnecessary frivolities freshly cooked food , all typical of eastern province and locally sourced or from the owner's organic estate and farm. dawn, day or evening ,sitting in the planters chair on the veranda is great.
