We stayed for 2 nights and really enjoyed our stay. The hotel is located off the main high street so it's lovely and peaceful. Our room was spotlessly clean, big comfortable bed with a mosquito net, fridge, kettle, good shower, and a lovely balcony.

We had breakfast each morning with our stay and it was very nice. Water isn't provided for free, but it's only 90lkr for a 2L bottle. The hotel doesn't have a generator for when there are nationwide powercuts unfortunately, but hopefully they will stop soon.

We would definitely recommend staying here!

Lovely hotel near the beach

A lovely budget hotel with everything you need for a comfortable but inexpensive stay in Marissa. The room we had was on the top floor and had a nice size balcony, a fair sized bedroom and a big bathroom. We had a fridge, kettle with tea and coffee and good working aircon and a fan. The bed had nice mosquito nets and fresh smelling bedding and was very comfortable. The shower had plenty of hot water and the sink is big if you need to do a little laundry (a handy drying rack on the balcony).  A nice breakfast is included, with eggs, toast, sausage and a different Sri Lankan savoury each day and also a delicious home made fruit juice. We were there 6 days and the room was completely cleaned with fresh bedding and towels etc on our 3rd day which was perfect for us. It is a 5 minute walk to the beach and to the main road which has shops, a supermarket and some restaurants. Our main reason for 5* is the lovely family that run the hotel, they could not be nicer or more helpful, really lovely people I really didn’t want to leave! Look out for the monkeys playing in the trees in the morning, a lovely way to start the day with a nice cup of tea!

Everything you need

My husband and I had a lovely stay at Orchid Rest. The host was very friendly and helpful. We had a whale watching excursion early in the morning and the host very kindly waited for us to return and made us breakfast. The bedroom and bathroom were exceptionally clean and was excellent value for money. 

The location of the property is very close to Mirissa beach and nearby restaurants. Mirissa is a beautiful area and it was a shame we only stayed for one night. We would not hesitate to stay at Orchid Rest again.

Lovely stay in Mirissa

Mirissa was our favourite coastal destination. Excellent beaches and still a pleasant atmosphere. Though tourism is  very prevalent here, the place has a more laid back scene than some of the other southern coastline beach destinations.

Our accommodation was a small 2 story hotel just a few minutes walk from a really nice part of the beach. A popular wave break provided an opportunity to watch some surfers whilst we enjoyed a beer and seafood dinner right on the sand.

Our room was spacious and extremely clean. A nice and private verandah was a popular place for enjoying reading and just relaxing.

Breakfast was a standout here. Excellent with plenty of fresh fruit. The host extremely friendly. Felt like you were staying as part of the family rather than paying guests.

Just loved it. Fantastic staff

Orchid rest took us in after our original booking let us down. We were so lucky as it is a super place - brilliant AC, fast wifi, great location, kind hosts, Very helpful, let us stay as long as we liked. Thank you for your hospitality. Good price too.

Great place

Small tidy place with all basics in place and within walking distance of the beach. Very accommodating staff who went way out to make our stay comfortable. 
They even arranged a local meal upon request in their garden sit out.
Clean linen and decent shower space too with one big double bed and one single in their family room. 
Only issue is no lifts in most places so don’t bring heavy bags.

Magnificent Marissa

My wife and I recently stayed at orchid rest, nice simple rooms with a private balcony, breakfast was really good every morning, short walk to beach and local restaurants, shower was good with hot water just needed better design, swap the toilet and shower around, she also booked us our transfer to unawatuna.

Lovely host

We had a good stay at Orchid Rest, the room was simple, clean and had a nice balcony. The bathroom was clean though it was unbearably hot, it would be good if there was an extractor fan/better ventilation. The breakfast was far too big and the quality could be improved. It resulted in us wasting about 50% of the food everyday. It would be better if they had a small buffet where you can choose what you want. It consisted of (for one person) 1 sausage, 1 omelette, slice of cheese, 3 slices of toast, butter & jam, cake/roti, 1 banana, wedge of watermelon, plate of pineapple, plate of papaya, juice, tea/coffee. 

Overall it was a pleasant stay for the cost.
