The owners were really helpful and friendly! They helped us with our next destination transportation and gave us some advices for our trip. They also prepared an early breakfast for us, so we were able to get our bus early too, to avoid the hot weather. The room was comfortable and spacious. We will definitely stay here again, at the end of out trip :)

We were pleasantly surprised by the whole place to be honest. We only needed a place to stay during the day as we had a flight just after midnight, so we picked a cheap hotel near the beach. The hotel itself looks very nice from outside and the rooms are well set out and kept very clean. Sadly we didn't get to sleep on the bed as it and the pillows provided were the most comfy in our whole trip round Sri Lanka. The hosts Rani and her husband are delightfully friendly people and just lovely and helpful. I would definitely stay again and highly recommend.

We had an issue with aircon and hot water, but it had not been raised by the previous tenant of 8 days and when we realised and raised it with the owners it was too late to get a technician. One was arranged for the very next day.

Wonderfully welcoming and helpful hosts. Comfortable bed, clean room, good shower and food. 1 minute walk from the beach where I enjoyed a swim in warm ocean water just a couple of hours after my long flight. Close to restaurants and shops but away from immediate street noise (though being a town you may wish to bring ear plugs as things may change from night to night). I arrived jet-lagged in Sri Lanka and Rani, who speaks excellent English, welcomed me with a lovely fresh juice. Very relaxing to stay with her and her husband who is also excellent cook. Rani helped me a lot with a travel challenge I had to deal with and they helped me buy an electrical adaptor at a shop almost next door. I would definitely like to stay with them again if I visit Negomobo again.

All good

Great couple of days. The hosts and family were lovely and very helpful Food was great, they cooked a wonderful curry for us one evening. Excellent location, just across the road from the beach and a couple of great beach bars

The bathroom could have been a bit cleaner. Great size but the tiles could do with a bit of a clean

This simple family run hotel is very well located, cheap, clean and you will be treated like a friend! We just loved to be guests here, enjoying the sweet hospitality and good food of Rani and Sarat. We will come back here after our round trip in Sri Lanka and we are looking forward to stay here again!

The breakfast was good, the landlady gave our children more toast on request. She was very welcoming and kind, helpled us organize a boat trip on the Negombo Lagoon, which was a great start to our Sri Lanka holiday.

The rooms had no air conditioning.

Amazing value for money, room was clean and spacious and breakfast delicious. Also the place is run by a lovely family who speak great English so easy to communicate. Will come back next time I visit Sri Lanka!

AC didn’t work so the room was quite warm, but otherwise everything was excellent!

Our flight was at 23:00 p.m. while the check out was at 11:00 a.m. The great family was happy to help us that we could still take a shower in the evening without any extra costs.
