Paradise Beach Resort & Diving School

To be honest we booked this hotel by mistake. We had been recommended a hotel with a similar name on Mirissa Beach but ended up here. I cannot fault the people there. They are very friendly and kind and will do anything for you. The dinner was good and the breakfast was a feast of delicious fruit plates, eggs and breads. Simple, local food and we enjoyed it. Layan has a tuk tuk and can take you to the main beach for a fair price and if you exchange numbers will pick you up again. The beach is narrow but nice and is good for snorkelling to see the beautiful fish just off the shore. This is a basic hotel, the rooms and linen are clean. Spacious rooms, wet room bathroom, comfortable beds. They must have been affected by the tsunami and doing their best with limited means. My honest review is that the hotel is old and tired and generally could do with total modernisation. Frequent power cuts, limited Wi-Fi, reliance on a noisy generator, the pool needs cleaning, there are TVs in the rooms but you can’t get any channels, glass doors so light from the hallway is always visible. I wish this little hotel well, the staff are kind and I hope one day they can make improvements.
