I had an absolutely wonderful three-night stay at Surf n Spice in Hiriketiya. From the moment I arrived, the hospitality was top notch—every member of the staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and genuinely attentive.
One of the things I loved most is that the hotel is locally owned and run by a group of friends. Supporting local businesses is important to me, and you can truly feel the care and passion they put into the place.
The rooms were spacious, comfortable, and had all the basic necessities you need for a relaxing stay, including a comfy bed, air conditioning, and warm water in the shower. Simple, clean, and exactly what you need after a day at the beach.
The food was excellent throughout my stay, with the grilled butter fish being a standout—absolutely delicious and highly recommended! Breakfast was also a highlight: each morning you can choose an item from the brunch menu, and the options were fantastic. I tried three different dishes over my stay, and every single one was great.
A special mention goes to the hotel’s two adopted dogs, Surf and Spice—they were incredibly adorable, friendly, and added so much charm to the stay.
The location is perfect—peaceful and calm, yet ideally situated between Dikwella Beach and Hiriketiya Beach, making it easy to enjoy both. Overall, I’m very happy I chose Surf n Spice and wouldn’t hesitate to stay here again or recommend it to others.
