3 of 5 stars Reviewed 26 March 2012

We stayed here in March 2012 for 5 nights. It really frustrates me when you can see so much potential in a place that just isnt being utilised. It's the best location on Marissa beach but the rooms really let them down. We had a beach front facing 2nd floor room and while sitting outside it for "sunset over the... More

I can see from previous reviews that the rating of this hotel is based on its location; beautiful beach, fantastic relaxed garden, great situation generally. Which makes the Giragala hotel the most frustrating out of all the superb establishments we stayed in on our tour around the country. Simply - you would not want to stay in the rooms, and... More

We stayed there just 2 nights last week. Accomodation was a bit expensive for what was offered. Anyway, the garden is fantastic and so is Mirissa, so I can imagine coming back. More

Mirissa has many guest houses on the beach, one after the other. This one has the best location,a bit more distant from the others, at the end of the beach so very quiet, in an area with less waves, great for swimming. You also get the sunset. The large garden with hammocks is awesome for relaxing. At $75 a night... More

The title says it all, it is in the best location at the south end with great, big grounds. Huge area of grass, with palm trees, lounges and hammocks. The rooms are in good condition but this place is about the location and it's grounds. Perfect for families, we had to tear ourselves away from it. More

Rooms OK, cleaning could be a bit better. Terrific massage available, decent food at the restaurant, friendly staff. Beautiful garden with hammocks and swaying palm trees. Traffic from the road behind the hotel might be disturbing. More

Giragala Village is a very good place to stay in Mirissa beach. The rooms are very clean and comfortable. Private balcony and breakfast served to your room. The hotel is on the beach, hammock and coconut treas. The hotel beach is amazing with a small breakwater that control the waves. The staff is very nice and available at any time... More

We stayed for three nights as a relaxing conclusion to our Sri Lankan travels and didn't want to leave! The location is perfect: the garden full of palm trees and hammocks is right on the beach, a short stroll from super little restaurants serving excellent fresh seafood and lovely curry. This place is a real find - good value and... More

Only stayed one night at the Giragala but it was pleasant enough. We had a cabana which was large with a good size bathroom. There was a large fridge in the room too, although the electric plug on this seemed a bit dodgy!! We also had a large terrace with tables and chairs and they served our evening meal on... More
