Reviews of Wimala B&B

Clean room with mosquito net and two fans. Secure parking for my tuk tuk. Friendly hosts (but they didn't speak much English).

The room was very hot despite the fans. No toilet paper provided. The only place I've stayed in Sri Lanka without British plugs. The breakfast was basic and not like the photos.

Super friendly

Nothing

A very friendly owner who really takes care of her guests. Breakfast was plentiful and varied. The room with a balcony is spacious, clean, a really nice place to enjoy.

Nothing.

The location near to the beach

No A/C. Room basic and small for a triple

Lovely little Homestay just 5 minute walk from the beach. Comfortable beds and a great breakfast. Run by a lovely woman, we organised an external river safari but it was possible to do this through the Homestay as well.

Wimala's was our second stop on our holiday in Sri Lanka and remained a favourite for the rest of our trip! Wimala is the sweetest host and was so so helpful (her son was also so kind and helpful, taking us in his tuktuk to our river tour (and telling us about the tour in the first place!)) The property is in the perfect location, set just a street back from the station and close to the beach. The house is surrounded by papaya, mango and coconut trees and feels like a truly authentic Sri Lankan home. Our stay here was amazing; Wimala's cooking is incredible!! (we are missing it dearly!) Thank you so much for you and your family's hospitality, we will most definitely be seeing you again (hopefully soon)! Take care and thank you for everything!

Cozy room with neat kitchen nearby. Great hostess, made us feel comfortable and helped with hot water for our daughter. Very nice breakfast too!

The huge taste breakfast and the great host Wimala madam. She is very nice and always takes care of her guests. Oneday we went out for sight seeing at Hikkaduwa keeping our washed clothes outside for drying under sunrays, in the meantime suddenly rain started. But Wimala madam takes our all clothes under sheds of her own. Thanks her a lot for her super support. This property is very near to Bentota Sea beach, only 3/4 minutes walking. Free washing machine facility is available.Tuktuk / car hire facility is also available for sight seeing, bus stop drop or transfer to Airport with extra cost. Many good restaurants are within 2 minutes walking distance for Lunch & Dinner. In fact, we didn't need Lunch after having huge breakfast from Wimala madam. 😊

Most lovely staff Great location Wonderfuil breakfast

Downstairs room not so great. Upstairs rooms are lovely.

Great hospitality by Wimala. Good breakfast.

Hot water arrangement could be improved. Car Parking is congested.

The place was spotless and very clean. Breakfasts were generous and varied - often more than we could eat - and the owner kept offering more. The host, a lovely elderly lady, went above and beyond to make our stay comfortable in every way. The location is excellent, just a short walk to the beach, restaurants, surf schools, the train station, and an ATM. Plus, there’s an adorable cat that often kept us company, which added a special charm.

One thing to note is the lack of hot water, which is common in guesthouses in Sri Lanka. It didn’t bother us, but it might be a consideration for some.

The guesthouse staff and owner are lovely. Very helpful and attentive

Wimala is very warm and welcoming. She let us pick our room, which was very nice. By foot it takes you about 10 Minutes to get to the beach and the train station as well as Restaurants and a Supermarket are around the corner.

Maybe the ventilator case could be cleaner, but that is pretty much looking for faults, since the overall experience is very nice.

The house is located in a quiet and green area, really close to the beach. Lady Wimala is a delight warmly welcoming her guests and she tries to make your stay at her place unforgettable. The breakfast was so tasty and abundant that we had to skip the lunch. Simply amazing.

Mrs. Wimala is the most amazing woman. She worked tirelessly to be as accommodating as possible. The perfect hostess.

I liked the family who owned the place. Especially the elderly lady she was lovely. She might kill you with the amount of food she will try and give you for breakfast!!! Mosquito nets on the beds, great shower, a short walk from the beach and restaurants.

The beds weren't the comfiest.

You get what you expect for such a great place but mostly it was like coming home to my Sri Lankan Grandmother. Wimala is a delight, she will go the extra mile with everything to make a happy stay. It truly was like coming home to family and her cooking is amazing

The house is located in a very green and quiet area, very close to the beach. The room we had was very clean and our host was lovely. This was one of the best places we stayed in our three weeks in Sri Lanka.

Nice and kind host Good hospitality Closed to sea coast

Wifi was week

The hostess is such an amazing woman! Thank you for your hospitality, kindness, conversations and smile! I totally recommend staying at this wonderful place ☺️
