The Spice House Mirissa

Ruwan and the wonderful team here at the spice house were so helpful and welcoming from the minute we arrived till the moment we left! The rooms, pool and breakfasts are beautiful and we will definitely return again one day! We will be sure to recommend this place to our families and friends. Thanks for having us! Kate and Darren Hart 😊

Lovely hotel set backing onto the jungle 2 min walk to the beach Staff are helpful and friendly Rooms are lovely and rustic Perfect place to stay and relax Sit back watch the sun rise in the morning and enjoy the monkeys jumping through the jungle trees

A lovely property with a friendly and laid back vibe. Well equiped rooms -most with balcony and overlooking an extensive tropical garden and inviting pool. We didn't eat there but it was an option with owners/hosts providing great Sri Lankan food. English owner Phil and his lovely wife were most helpful and gave us great dinner venues to try. They also fixed a reasonable cost driver to take us to the Wild life park and onward to Ella. All in all a faultless stay and great value for the quality provided. Vey handy to explore Mirrisa beaches, Whale watching and Wellygama beach.

Wow, what a little gem this is. The spice house itself and our room (separate from the house) were amazing. We loved the overall atmosphere that the place has. It really felt like a little, quit oasis and a great place to unwind and relax. The room was nice and clean with a lovely balcony. The staff is very friendly and attentive. Breakfast was very good. We only stayed one night and regret not having booked more nights.

Quiet, lovely spot tucked off the main road, with a beautiful, lush garden and pretty pool. Feels like a little oasis. Beautiful rooms decorated in the Sri Lankan style, with pretty artefacts and four poster beds. Great service and absolutely delicious breakfast included.

This is an amazing place. A hotel with bungalows in the superb gardens surrounded by jungle. We stayed for a week in one of the garden bungalows, which was great. From the seating area just outside the bungalow, the jungle is literally yards away and monkeys can be heard and seen swinging through the trees. The bungalows have one main room with a bed, aircon and a fridge, a toilet with basin, a separate shower, and one main bedroom. It was pretty rustic - the shower was cold - but climate is so hot that isn't an issue. We had breakfast with other guests, on the terrace of the house/hotel which was really good. Mirissa Beach - which was wonderful - was a short 300SLR tuktuk drive away. There are loads of restaurants on the beaches serving excellent and very reasonably priced food. A great stay.

The Spice House was an amazing find. It’s a beautiful house in fabulous green garden surroundings. The staff were amazing and helpful. We had a lovely en suite room, a comfortable bed, a fridge, and a balcony all over looking the pool. The house is thankfully back from the road which is very noisy and busy! Breakfasts were delicious too.

We absolutely loved our time here. The rooms are spacious and the bed is comfy. Breakfast is really lovely, selection of fruit, fresh juice, toast, jam and your choice of eggs. We loved watching the monkeys from our balcony in the trees. The guest house is close to all amenities and tourist attractions including coconut tree hill and swimming with turtles. The hosts were lovely! Anything asked was never an issue. Thank you so much both for a wonderful stay. If we come back to mirissa, we will sure to stay with you again! Steph and alex
