SriMany

The pool area is amazing, and the staff made us feel right at home. Sri Many is a little paradise in Mirissa, created by Christiane and her husband. It's a two-minute walk to the beach, close to the main road, and Mum’s Kitchen is a lovely family restaurant on the street. We ate there twice and highly recommend it. Breakfast at Sri Many was excellent, and you can order drinks during the day, from water to beer, wine, or cocktails. Our room was perfect, with a comfortable bed and mosquito net, airco, a fan, enough closet space to unpack for a few days, and a nice shower that could be warm when needed. Lots of people seemed to come just for one day, but we'd suggest staying longer and exploring the south coast from here. You can easily rent a scooter or tuk tuk. Thanks for a lovely stay. We'll send our friends and family your way ❤️

The hosts were so caring and helpful, and their warm hospitality made us feel welcome and comfortable as soon as we arrived. We were new to everything and feeling a bit excited, but the relaxed, friendly atmosphere helped us feel at home. We really appreciated all the effort they put into making the stay enjoyable. They also gave us a lovely little pendant, a thoughtful gift we'll remember. Thanks for everything. We highly recommend staying here and would definitely come back if we visit Sri Lanka again!

My partner and I were very disappointed after choosing SriMany accommodation based on the positive reviews. Poor communication, no basic preparation for a power outage, and the hosts' deeply unprofessional behaviour ruined our stay. We were told on arrival that the power would be out until 5pm. That was understandable, and so was the fact that it remained off past sunset, since it was outside the owners' control. But we were left in a dark, hot room without a fan, light, or candles. The hosts had known from 8am that morning about the outage, yet didn't tell us until we checked in. They barely followed up while it was happening, and only spoke to us when we approached them. We politely said we would have appreciated being told earlier and getting more updates. They responded defensively and rudely instead of offering support. At first, the host said we could leave without charge if we were unhappy. After we decided to cancel, we were asked to pay. The male host then made extremely inappropriate and threatening remarks. We felt unsafe and uncomfortable enough to leave the property entirely. He told my partner and me that he “knows people” around Mirissa and said it in a threatening way. He also told my partner to “look out for your wife at the beach” in a very unsettling way. What should have been a minor inconvenience became a disturbing confrontation because of the hosts' poor handling and unprofessional behaviour. I would not recommend this accommodation.

I genuinely liked the pool, the modern rooms, the relaxing atmosphere, the late-night pool lights the owners provided, and the five-minute walk to the beach. I had left a mostly positive review on Booking.com (search my name there), mentioning just one issue: $100 was missing from the cash I took out of the room safe during a rushed checkout. Before posting, I messaged the owner to let them know what happened and what I planned to write. A few days after the review went live, they sent me a very rude, mocking WhatsApp message. (You can see it in the attachment)❗ I'd seen a couple of older comments about rude or unprofessional behaviour from the owner, but only experienced it myself after their response. I'm really sorry to say this accommodation has both theft concerns and rude, insulting treatment of guests.❗
