A Lovely Gem in Miriss
I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at The Spice House. It was set back from the road, so very quiet and peaceful compared to my earlier hotel in the main road. It’s conveniently located <15 Min walk or 2 min Tuk Tuk from the main beach and restaurants, shops and other amenities in Mirissa. The grounds and rooms are lovely with many thoughtful touches, breakfast is delicious and everyone from The Spice House interacted was helpful and friendly.

We stayed at the Spice House for 5 days as part of a 3 week tour of Sri Lanka. Its well placed for easy walking to local restaurants, beaches and sights and the owner was able to arrange transport and guides to further afield locations.Breakfast was always more than ample and very tasty. Set well back from the road its very quiet.

This beautiful property is outstanding, you can watch the monkeys playing in the trees whilst having an amazing breakfast or swimming in the pool. Hosts Phil and Wathsala are fantastic and very helpful. The gardens are lovely and well looked after by an incredible friendly team. I would highly recommend this fantastic place to stay to anyone and would definitely stay here again.

6/10 Good

We booked a Deluxe Double room for 5 nights but did not get the room we booked. We were given a family room and it was anything but Deluxe. The room was very basic (the sort of room we used to stay in when backpacking 20 years ago) and quite tired and scruffy looking (mouldy bathroom, stained and unhygienic looking seating area on the balcony). We were hugely disappointed and wish we'd booked somewhere else as it spoiled our trip. On a positive note, the pool area and gardens were beautiful and immaculately maintained.

8/10 Very Good

Nice property but little bit “tired” house and would appreciate small refurbishment here and there. Garden and pool on the other hand was great and location upper on the hill was quiet despite tragic from main road. Pleasing breakfast. We were satisfied in overall with our stay.

Just like living in a beautiful home. Food was absolutely delicious and our hosts were very helpful and friendly. Close enough to eateries, beach and spas but tucked away from any hustle and bustle happening out on the road. We just loved walking back to the property each afternoon - it felt so peaceful. Thanks to Wathsala and Phil for having us!

Super Hotel & Great Hosts!
Genuinely outstanding hotel. Stayed in the Ginger room and was blown away by the quality of both the rooms and the amenities. Phil and Wathsala were great hosts and we'll book the Spice House on our next trip to Sri Lanka for sure and will recommend to friends and family.

Autentisk og charmerende omgivelser
En dejlig lille oase! Natur og luksus kombineret. Aber der hopper rundt i træerne mens du tager en afkølende dukkert i poolen. Værtsparret var søde og behjælpsomme!
