"This is truly a little gem! A fairly newly opened hotel, a small hotel of 5 rooms with personal charm. The staff mentioned that the plan is to complete the construction and add another 5 rooms. Located above a quiet restaurant in a very quiet area just outside Hikkaduwa, right on the beach so the waves and the beach are your table neighbors at breakfast. Clean, nice rooms and fresh bathrooms. Very affordable accommodation. We went into town to sunbathe and do a bit of cardio. With a Tuk-tuk it...
