Peacock Villa, hotel in Mirissa

Offering a spa and wellness centre, Peacock Villa is located just 600 metres from the famous Whale Watching Mirissa. Free WiFi access is available.

The host & people here are so friendly and calm. We felt right at home, playing with the house dog ‘Simba’ and enjoying the lovely pool. This is such a peaceful place, we could’ve stayed here much longer. Must try the Sri Lankan pancakes for breakfast, best we had!!! I can recommend their laundry service as well as using one of their yoga mats and use it on the upper terrace.

We had a long journey and the way up is an adventure by car!

The rooms are clean and equipped with everything:) including AC :)

    Great, clean, spacious room. Lovely bathroom with excellent hot water. Great air con and also a ceiling fan. The breakfast is served on the verandah just outside the room at your own little table. A very good breakfast with good variety. It's just a short walk to the beach and also to the main road where there is a Cargills and a wine store. Maduranga is a great host - as with all Sri Lankans he is kind, helpful and friendly.

    I stayed here for two nights with my family. I liked the warmth of the host family. The uncle and aunt were very kind. At our request, they prepared a vegetarian dinner for us at a reasonable price. I would recommend this homestay. It is located right next to the beach and coconut hill. P.S. I am very touched by the hand-woven cap that the auntie prepared and gave to my daughter on departure. Thank you very much.

    Good value for money. Good host family, friendly and helpful. Good location, close to beaches but far enough away from the busy main road. Good surroundings, quiet, nice garden, and the property backs on to a natural wetland area full of interesting wildlife. If I find myself in Mirissa in the future, it would be good to stay at NATURE INN again.

    Lovely host family who were all very helpful and attentive. Room had two huge 4-poster beds and a huge bathroom. Place was very clean and comfortable. This was my best night's sleep! Perfect location, just a ten minute walk to a most beautiful beach - paradise! Also a very short walk to shops and amenities. We had a huge breakfast- plenty of fresh fruit, toast, butter and jam, yogurt, delicious omelettes and coffee. We wish we had stayed longer than 1 night.
