Terans was the best host! He took care of us from A to Z and helped us with every little problem. The accommodation is located directly on the beach and with the bicycles that Terans provided us, one was quickly at restaurants or shopping.

    The guest house was very quiet, with a lovely pool and trees that offered shade.There were no breakfast options but overall the property was excellent value, being a five minute walk to the best part of the beach and with good restaurants nearby. Venu does a great job, welcoming guests with a friendly smile, as well as looking after everything else.

    We liked that staff and facilities. Everything was good except for the food. The breakfast buffet was good- however we did not like the dinner buffet. We were hoping for some more plain western type food. It also did not cater for my daughter's Gluten free diet. It would be good for foods to be labelled with GF signs. For Sri Lanka we thought that it was expensive. It was the same price as in Australia.

    The location is great, super close to the beach. The room was big enough, clean and comfortable. Loved the little patio where you can sit to have your breakfast or dinner. There is shared kitchen where you can prepare tea with a fridge to keep food/drinks. Sanju and his team will do their best to provide anything you need. Initially I booked 1 night and ended up staying for more than 2 weeks!

    The owner is very friendly and prepared a very nice seafood dinner!! I arrived trinco at 10pm and I worry I cannot get a driver from bus station to the hostel, I texted the owner(Rangan), he is so helpful to ask me try to get a tuk tuk first, if can’t he will pick me up at the bus station.

    I had a lovely stay at Kanthi Guest Inn, my original room had a problem with the outlet and AC but they switched my room without question and ensured I was very comfortable during my stay. The room was clean and very spacious, WiFi worked well and breakfast was delicious! Only a short walk to the beach and several restaurants. Definitely recommend Kanthi Guest Inn for your stay in Trincomalee!

    The Pleasant Park Inn was wonderfully positioned: a short walk to the beautiful beach of Trincomalee Bay, as well as vegetarian and non-vegetarian restaurants, supermarket, fresh fruit stalls and a short tuk tuk ride into Trincomalee town. The wi-fi was excellent and the Inn was set in a cooling garden.

    The staff was friendly. We couldn't use the swimming pool because of some reparations but they compensated this with a free dinner. The location was also good.

    Cleanest place we’ve been in Sri Lanka, well equipped with all you need. Right next to the beach, and if you walk 10 minutes north you’re in Uppuveli. The owner and his staff do really the utmost to make sure you have an excellent stay; they even arranged an excursion for us when we had already left the place. Also, the breakfast is excellent there and dinner is the best we had (try the whole fish!). Don’t doubt, this is the safest choice.

    Absolutely one of the best guest houses I've been to since I'm in Sri Lanka. The location is perfect, few meters from the beach. Very quiet and lot of restaurants nearby. Rangan, the owner, is one of the kindest person I ever met and also a skilled chef. I really recommend to have dinner at the guest house and enjoy his cooking skills!
