Property info

The Secret guesthouse offers a collection of simple yet comfortable self-catering accommodations, including private rooms as well as bungalows/cabana set back in the cool shade of tropical fruit trees. Our guests have access to a shared guest kitchen in the main guesthouse or private kitchen in our bungalows/cabana.

Neighborhood info

Located just slightly off the beaten track, The Secret Guesthouse is ideal for independent travellers wishing to sit back and enjoy the tranquility of Sri Lanka's nature and wildlife whilst remaining within easy walking distance from one of the most beautiful beaches in Sri Lanka. Our property is self catering but if guests prefer not to self-cater there are many cafes and restaurants in the neighbourhood serving wide ranging menus from entirely vegan, to fresh seafood or traditional Sri Lankan rice and curry. There are a host of activities to enjoy on Mirissa beach such as surfing and swimming, and also small bays to explore such as Turtle Bay where you can often spot sea turtles. Join an early morning Whale Watching trip or simply relax and unwind in our lovely outdoor swimming pool or with a treatment at our day spa, Secret Root Spa.
