Deluxe Double Room with attached bathroom
A perfect retreat away from any passing traffic noise. Bungalow and room were directly on the beach with a lovely view of the beach from our room. Food was excellent and staff were exceptionally helpful and friendly. Would definitely recommend ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

French Garden Regish Guest house
Great Place for beach lovers! The sea view from your bed and beautiful sunrises… Great juice bar & restaurant right on the same property!

Beach House in Trincomalee
We enjoyed our stay at the Beach house. It was only a minute walk to the beach and it's a nice, safe, secluded location. Saravana went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. He's great company and we truly enjoyed talking to him. He's a talentd chef. We all loved all the meals plus the BBQ he prepped for us. Definitely a highlight of our stay. We'll definitely visit again and highly recommend to everyone.

Moon Isle Beach Cabaña, Nilaveli
All expectations were exceeded during my stay at Moon Isle! Umesh and Mandy are great hosts—while all the staff are friendly as well. Trincomalee and Nilaveli beach truly feel like a piece of heaven. The food they prepare is delightful. My room was cleaned frequently and anything I needed was granted immediately. Any excursions, no matter the location, can be set up via Tuk tuk or taxi, and the prices are more than reasonable. Even to and from the airport! I look forward to returning here as regularly as life allows me!! Highly recommended to anyone wanting to visit Sri Lanka. Satisfaction is guaranteed!

Deluxe Double Room with Sea View
Would give 6 stars if I could. Absolutely stunning property right on the beach. My room, bathroom & beach were all immaculate & exactly as described. Very thoughtful host with a welcome basket of goodies, adaptor plugs, bath mat by bed for sand, filtered water & ice etc. Great air conditioning & hot shower. Fantastic food & staff in the restaurant - they even made me gluten free Sri Lankan food which was such a treat to be able to eat the local food as a coeliac - thank you Umesh. Mandy is an absolutely gorgeous host - I really enjoyed my evenings on the beach chatting over a glass of wine. I couldn’t recommend this little oasis more.

Beach Way Guest
The place was beautiful and the family very sweet and helpful.

Moon Isle Beach Bungalow Nilaveli Triple room 3bed
We stayed at Moon Isle for two nights in March 2025. The property is beautifully located right on the beach. The hosts Amanda and Umesh were amazing, very flexible and responsive. Pigeon island is just a 15 mins boat ride from the property. Highly recommend this place.
Beachfront home rentals with a pool

JKAB Beach Resort
A very nice hotel: a warm welcome, spacious and comfortable rooms, excellent bedding, impeccable cleanliness and excellent breakfast. Everything is perfect!

Beach Front Standard Triple Room @ Pearl Oceanic
Small resort in quiet place by the beach. It's great that there is a swimming pool and plenty of chairs and sun loungers. You can also swim in the sea. There is a restaurant with a choice for a good price. If you want to go somewhere, you should take a tuktuk. The only downside is the mattresses. We slept well in itself, but the mattresses had a clear pit.

AMANTA BEACH (Standard Double Room)
Our stay at Amanta Beach was excellent from the first second. We were warmly welcomed and got a delicious welcome drink. Our room was clean and matched the photos. We also received a mosquito net and were able to sleep peacefully. The private outdoor area with an additional shower was also great! The complex itself was beautiful and there is even an Ayurveda garden, from which, for example, edible garnish was used. We almost had the beach to ourselves, two very trusting dogs kept us company. The staff was outstanding and super friendly! Every request has been met for us! A tour of Trinco to all the sights and to our next accommodation was even arranged. Breakfast was plentiful in several courses, very fresh and extremely delicious! On the first evening we chose the great and fancy four-course dinner! We can wholeheartedly recommend this place!

Nilaveli Ocean Condos
We had a great family time in this amazing place. very remote but fully furnished, within walking distance from a beautiful beach. the restaurant also makes it very convenient when needed

Luxury Room by the Beach with Plunge Pool
Beautiful hotel right at the beach with very friendly and attentive staff. Can recommend anyone who seeks a quiet and calm atmosphere to come here! Thank you!

Luxury Room by the Beach with Plunge Pool
Beautifully designed hotel and the separate room with plunge pool provided a little more privacy, albeit there is a replica cottage directly next door. I share the point made by another guest regarding the need for a paint touch up by now but that aside, this is by far the more interesting choice of hotel in the area, assuming that you are happy to be quite remote (ie no other restaurants, bars etc within walking distance). I was diving with the wonderful Diving Guru at Nilaveli so was happily occupied all days. Very best of all were the staff here- warm, friendly, and nothing was too much trouble for them. Exceptional.

Serendip Nilaveli #2203
Very nice clean apartment in a great location to the beach. Through the management of a reception, you always had a point of contact, Kay was quick to respond to our messages. The only criticism is the little available loungers by the pool. The apartment had a great view of the sea.

CASAMIA Oceanfront Condo Nilaveli
Had a lovely stay in Trincomalee in this beautiful condo right on the beach within walkable distance to some restaurants via the beach. If you turn right and walk approximately 10 minutes you can reach salty dogs lovely little restaurant and if you turn left along beach your near pigeon island, highly recommended. Didn’t use the kitchen so can’t comment on that. Host is very responsive would definitely return

Blue Sails Nilaveli《 Swim, Snorkel, Dive & Dine 》
Loved the place here. Everything was so organised and felt like we were staying in a 5 star property. The beach view was amazing! We made full use of our 2 day stay here by going to the beach and the pool. I had only 1 issue which is the lock in the common bathroom was not working. This was fixed in 1 day but , so that would be the only issue I faced. Outside of that I will highly recommend this place!

Villa 232 - The Boat House - Dutch Bay Trincomalee
I have wanted to stay at this property for years, and I'm so glad we finally got the opportunity to visit! A beautiful, thoughtfully decorated home where your backyard is literally one of the most beautiful beaches in the country. A great place to stay with kids. Location is central with lots of amenities close by (if you can drag yourself out of the ocean). We were treated to a delicious breakfast every morning in the courtyard. The house manager Kasthuri was fabulous and helpful. Kian & Janah are clearly experienced Air BnB hosts, and communication was great. Would stay again!

Villa 234 - The Kovil House-Dutch Bay Trincomalee
Beautiful house located right on the beach along Dutch Bay. Special mention to Kasthuri, who was fantastic and made us an amazing Sri Lankan breakfast each day. Her and her team were really accommodation and helpful whenever we needed anything. Very unique house with lots of thoughts and details that have gone into it. Would highly recommend, especially if you want nearly private access to a swimmable beach and if you prefer to be located somewhere that is a bit outside the main touristy area. Amazing stay and we can't fault it!

Villa 252-The Fishermen's Suite - Dutch Bay Trinco
We stayed an extra day and still didn’t want to leave My favourite place in Sri Lanka , unspoilt enough to feel immersed in the local area but plenty to do and see , the local people were welcoming and to step out of the back gate on to the beach was paradise Hosts were helpful and breakfast was huge and delicious Please never sell out to the tourism storm on its way .

HARINIVAS, A new house facing the natural harbour.
one of our family's best stays so far in any place. smt Malini was extremely proactive in communicating. the property is pristine and we felt exactly at home. smt Malini took the extra steps of calling us upfront (she doesn't have to) and also offered us useful recommendations on local pure vegetarian food. this place is excellent for families wanting to experience trincomalee. Thirukoneswaram temple is main reason why we visited trincomalee. the temple is close by. thanks much to the host and we will recommend this place to our friends.
