We had the best time at mermaid beach! The staff is lovely, the breakfast is great and the hotel is directly at the beach, it even feels like a private beach. Would definitely recommend.

The property is right on the beach and surrounded by a few lovely restaurants, cafes and other beaches to relax on. It was a really lovely bright room, clean, and ran by the most welcoming, friendly ladies. The breakfast was also really nice, served outside looking onto the beach, and with very generous portions.
Nothing. Wish I had more time to stay for longer :)

a private beach is really close, and the breakfast with nice views
there were ants everywhere… we know there are ants in the whole island but there it was exaggerated. The bedclothes was dirty…

A very nice basic homestay. The family was extremely welcoming and helping us with different matters. the room was basic but cute, clean and had a neighbouring bathroom (outside the room but private to us). best is the direct view on the sea from the room. thank you!

… we absolutely loved it! the family who runs the place is the sweetest, they were incredible kind and sweet to my son. you sleep to the sound of the sound of the ocean in a cozy and clean room, have breakfast in the wonderful garden overlooking the sea and watching surfers. all of this felt amazing!
first thing in the morning we loved to take a little walk at the private beach or watching the sunset at nighttime - it’s a gem! the breakfast was so yummy and everyday a little bit different, served with a big smile by the family members and with lots of fresh fruit from their little shop.
all cool places of Ahangama are in a short walking distance, you can walk at the beach :) we really loved it! thank you so much & all the best :))
nothing - we loved everything! :)

This is a fantastic homestay right on the beach in Ahangama, complete with a sun bed and loungers in the backyard, facing the sea. Breakfast is served seaside and is absolutely delicious and the room with the attached balcony has a fantastic view!
The family mixed up several reservations, so we had to be quite flexible. They did their best to accommodate us when our reservation wasn't prepared, but I would recommend triple confirming your booking before you arrive!

Friendly family. Good breakfast.
WiFi not very reliable

The location of this property is just perfect…to wake up to the sea views with an amazing breeze flowing through. It was definitely the best room with a view we had during our month in Sri Lanka.
The family are super helpful and friendly and make you feel very welcome.
There was nothing to not like.

This homestay was lovely. The entire family was so excited to have me there as their first American. The breakfast was very nice with egg hoppers one day and Dahl and omelet, toast and a huge bowl of fresh fruit and tea, and eating outside on the beach watching the ocean was amazing

Great Host-family at the Mermaid Beach House. Got welcomend with a fresh coconut and a lot of talks in the afternoon and evening. The five grown up children are very lively and there is always just a good and funny atmosphere in the house. Had a lot of fun with them. We came in the offseason, so a lot of restaurants in Ahangama were closed, but we got delicious rice & curry for dinner at the house.

This is such a nice place to stay. The family of the guesthouse is so welcoming and nice, the rooms are beautiful and comfortable and the view to the ocean and the palm trees is amazing. The daily breakfast is also very tasty. Highly recommend this place!

I stayed at Mermaid for just one night but had such a lovely stay. I arrived very early and straight away I was made a delicious breakfast; served in their private little garden which backs onto the beach. The family continued to look after me attentively throughout my whole stay, quickly responding to my every need. In the evening they prepared a delicious Sri Lankan meal for me and another girl who was staying in the homestay. Such a generous and warming family and I am grateful for their hospitality. Thanks again for the stay

My stay at Mermaid Beach was something to remember, Guwan and his family really create an amazing experience here. Great value located in Ahangama with close access to everything in the area. The view from the room and the breakfast table is the cherry on top. Recommend 10x over.
