Staying with Piumi and her family was the most heart warming and beautiful way to end my trip in Sri Lanka. The whole family is very kind and opened their home and shared part of their customs traditions with me as well as served amazing breakfast and dinner always. Best food I have eaten in all of Sri Lanka honestly! Piumi helped me plan and organize to see the turtle conservation, herb garden as well as took me to an Ayurvedic massage! The beach is just a short walk away and it is the most beautiful beach from the whole coast in my opinion. Untouched and pure nature with no people and beautiful sunsets.

Clean, modern, beach access, views, walking distance to good coffee (Latte Korea) and pizza. Happy for the glass bottled water in the rooms. ☆ Let's all help STOP the use of single-use plastic. ■ and also no barking dogs, bread trucks or temple broadcasting. ■ just the breathing of the sea. ♡

The room was very clean with all the required facilities. The care taker was very good. The owner was very helpful. He arranged the transportation for us. The area is remote one. If you want to experience the rural vibe while staying in a good room, go for it.

I had a wonderful stay at Goalie Beachfront Resort. It's a beautiful luxury resort with stunning views in every direction. What truly amazed me was how seamlessly it blends with its surroundings—offering breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean from the private front balcony, and serene views of the wetlands from the back balcony. One of my favorite moments was enjoying the delicious breakfast from the in-house restaurant while watching the sunrise over the wetlands. The food was absolutely delicious. The resort also features a tropical garden with coconut trees private swimming pool with a jacuzzi, where I spent some relaxing time sunbathing and unwinding. The staff were incredibly friendly and always available whenever I needed assistance. The resort is located near to Hikkaduwa town. There are many things to do around this area like snorkelling, turtle farm, river safari etc. Since it’s close to the main road, getting around is easy—whether by public transport or tuk-tuk. The staff even arranged our airport transfer at a very reasonable price. You can rent a scooter from here as well. I will definitely be coming back to this amazing place next year!

Piyal welcomed us very warmly. Also his little son and daughter we met are super sweet and friendly. We got a welcome drink and piyal told us a lot about the plants and fruits in his garden.This was very informative. Packed our lunch in boxes to bring it to the beach. Also he gave as a lot of good advice what to do and where to go in Sri Lanka and helped with the bus. So you see, very helpful at any time with any topic!

    The homestay is located in a calm area with the beach in walking distance. It is a perfect spot to relax and the host family made me feel like home immediately! They are incredibly kind and carry a really warm energy with them. Moreover the food was super delicious and the room spacious and clean. All in all I can only recommend a stay in sweet pea😊
