Super guesthouse, très bien placée sur la rue principale et proche de la plage. Tamara et sa famille sont très accueillants. C’était un plaisir de séjourner là-bas.
Le train passe juste à côté, ce qui n’est pas très gênant quand on dort avec des bouchons d’oreilles.

Прекрасные, добрые и отзывчивые хозяева отеля! Хорошие завтраки, по запросу могут приготовить ланкийский. Очень-очень чисто, красивая ухоженная территория! Большие номера. Есть все, что нужно для комфортного отдыха.
Единственный минус - это близость железной дороги, но поезда ходят не так часто. К звуку поезда быстро привыкаешь.

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Tamara Motels, and it was an unforgettable experience. From the moment I arrived, the staff(family business)went above and beyond to ensure my comfort and satisfaction. The luxurious accommodations, coupled with exceptional service, made my stay truly memorable. The hotel’s prime location made exploring the city a breeze, and I can’t wait to return to Tamara Motels on my next visit. Highly recommended!

Without doubt one of the favorite hotels I stayed during my time in Sri Lanka! Upon arrival we were warmly welcomed by the receptionist and we booked a twin bed room and we were upgraded to the Junior Suite Room. The staff was extremely friendly, the restaurant very flexible (appreciate this!) and We had two great evenings here, specially we need to mention in the restaurant there is a nice art. Even we never see those things before. It is amazing and lovely. Those things obviously also added up to the experience.
Devindi and Nipun are such a warm personality and highly motivated guide (recommendable!). The scenery of the hotel was beautiful and it was a relieve to walk in such a quiet and peaceful environment.
Note, this is such a nice place, and the atmosphere is so special that it really felt like home to me. And the railway tracks behind the property and that sound is bearable it’s not big a problem for to see the beautiful of that nature. All respect for the receptionist and the staff who does a great job here; a true sample of excellent hospitality!

Very nice family working there! AC is great!
Bit of a smelly room, but nothing that big. Keep in mind this is right next to the train track! You’ll get up at night for sure.

I had such a lovely stay at Tamara Motels. Devindi and her family are warm and friendly hosts, and nothing was too much trouble. Communication with them was great right from the start. The room itself was fantastic, absolutely huge, comfy beds, gorgeous bathroom and the biggest balconies! The whole place is spotlessly clean, and the location is perfect!
The only slight downside is the railway line that runs directly behind the property, which is quite loud, but nothing a pair of earplugs can’t solve (available from reception)

Devindi and staff go above and beyond.
If you stay there, get the junior family suite. Rooftop with wrap-around deck. It's great!

Great location, very nice and clean rooms, but what makes it such a good place to stay is the staff. Everyone is incredibly helpful and generous with their time and advice. We had breakfast from them, delicious and superb. They have a lot of different breakfast options. It's like French toast, an international breakfast, and also a Sri Lankan breakfast. When we check into the room, the room smells of cinnamon, which is very pleasant for us. It's right next to the train tracks, but that didn't bother us. This was one of the nicest places we stayed in the four weeks we spent in Sri Lanka. We are recommend this good place and definitely we will come again to here.
Best Of Luck Tamara Motels.
Nothing. Everything is good 😇

Lovely family run motel, very friendly and welcoming hosts, loved the property immediately with its quirkiness and cute decor in rooms, appreciated having a fridge, kettle and somewhere to hang out wet beachwear (on the roof top) we also appreciated the location next to the train track and this added to our Sri Lankan experience after having done the Colombo, Kandy, Ella train journey. Nice breakfast, choices, and plentiful. Brilliant location only a minutes walk from beach, shops restaurants etc.
Disappointing that during a five night stay our room wasn’t made up (clean towels offered, bins emptied etc) however this did not effect the quality of our stay but is meant as helpful feedback to hosts.

THANK YOU for my first stay in sri lanka - it was the best start for me, I appreciated a lot because it was such a warm welcome. Had a big room, with own bathroom and kitchen - everything you need. breakfast was tasty, you can feel that everything is made with much love from a really kind family. Tamara Motels is in a good location, near the train station in hikkaduwa. And I felt very safe (because I‘m a solo traveller, so I can recommend it for all of you) :)
just a little little things - but it‘s not so bad if you have ear pads. the train is very loud in the night… so don‘t forget your „Ohropax“ :))

Good location, close to turtle beach. They were flexible and made breakfast for us earlier than normally scheduled due to our early departure.
They prefer payment in dollars but when you pay in dollars they accept only brand new banknotes. I gave a banknote that was "used" and they did not like it (places that we visited later had no problem with used banknotes). Well, dollar is dollar...
