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.

I was scared in this place. Really really bad. Never again. The "hotel" is located on the beach which is not a clean one - a lot of boats, and there's a diving school so no privacy at all. It is 7 minutes by tuktuk from Mirissa beach. The room was terrible, and the bathroom was scary. There's no informations you can receive in reception, ladies look like you are bothering them and like they would prefer us not being there at all. We were travelling through the beauty of Sri Lanka and this place was really the worst. We love dogs but there's so many in here. By the pool, in the restaurant, and they are NOT healthy, unfortunately. When breakfest there was a worm on the table. I think Im not able to describe how bad this place is. Horrible. We cut our trip short in here. Do NOT recommend this place.

This is a terrible hotel. Lousy rooms. Spiders. AC non functional. Fan not working. Staff attitude is horrendous. Rude racist. The food is yuks. I have never stayed in a worse place. Don't visit even if you are paid to.
