Resort Deepika Mirissa

Guests appreciate the delicious breakfast on the roof terrace and the convenient location near the beach and restaurants. They also value the cleanliness, comfortable rooms, and exceptional service from the friendly staff.

I travelled in Sri Lanka for 3 weeks and Mirissa was my last stop. I consider myself not a picky person in terms of the hotel rooms as i stay at hostels quite often as well. Unfortunately, Resort Deepika was the only and worse room i booked in Sri Lanka both because of the condition of the room and how the owner treats to his customers. Owner gave me the room facing directly to ocean which was slightly more expensive even though i booked the back room which i thought it would be quite. I was attracted from the view initially and decided to stay for 3-4 days. However, room was not clean at all. There were stains on the wall, spider nets under the bed and shower walls as well as the sinks were not cleaned at all. Local busses as well as the tuktuks are passing on main road which is right in front of the room. I couldn’t sleep until 1:30-2 am due to heavy traffic noise. It started again at around 6-6:30 am. Room smells very heavily mould and you cannot open even the windows due to noise outside. Owner seemed to me very friendly person like all other amazing people i met as hosts in Sri Lanka. However, when i told him about the noise and all the things above, he asked me to close windows as a joke. I said i want to check out next morning and he told me there is an available room at the back of the hotel even though the hotel was full the day before and he tried to sell it for more expensive price. Money is not a big deal but he has been very rude. Stay away from this place and book somewhere else for less hassle! Cheers and enjoy Sri Lanka;) Amazing country with very nice people…

The main reason I enjoyed my stay was because the host was so welcoming and kind. He went the extra mile to take me to a snake farm that I wanted to go, and stayed with me during my visit and took me back to the hotel after. Additionally, his wife was also very kind - I had leftover food from dinner yesterday and she re-cooked it for me for breakfast! The location is also very convenient, with coconut tree hill and Marissa beach all walking distance away. The room I stayed in was very comfortable and quiet. Overall, I really enjoyed my stay - definitely the stand-out hotel during my SL trip :)
