Great location right on the beach. Room Ok, good AC and a little fridge with plenty of bottled water. Very confortable bed. Friendly staff. Very nice with the beach for dinner and a little party. Waligama beach just 10/15 min away is perfect for beginners...More
'Grim' is the word that comes to mind with this place. You are paying for the location and nothing else. There were actual rips and large holes in our bedsheets, an ant colony next to the bed, dodgy stains everywhere, and no hot water. If...More
Trip highlight was staying here. Staff are great. Food is great. 4-10 Happy Hour drinks are amazing (although not unique on this beach the drinks are very good her). Beach is amazing.
Room was clean albeit slightly musty but you're 30 footsteps from beach paradise.
Went there after a disappointing breakfast in the Wifi Cafe and the ham and cheese toastie did not disappoint - it just hit the spot. The cappuccino was a little bit on the milky side but overall still very tasty. The service was good as...More
We stayed at Central Beach Inn for 3 nights, and it was good, assuming you are looking for cheap and cheerful. The rooms are small and basic, with mosquito nets. The water pressure in the bathroom was very weak and there was no hot water....More

Several restaurants located in the Mirissa Bay have refused to serve food, beverages and provide accommodation to Sri Lankans because of their anti-social behavior, several customers complained. Based on complaints of discrimination by Sri Lankans who had visited these hotels, Daily Mirror contacted some of the hotel owners in Mirissa and they too confirmed that they were reluctant to serve Sri Lankans because of their unruly behaviour. “I and two of my friends were turned away from several restaurants on the Mirissa Bay after being told by restaurant staff that they did not serve locals. When we made some inquiries, the reasons given were that some Sri Lankan men behaved in an unruly manner and harassed foreign women. Unruly men are common in any country, the solution is to have bouncers to control the offenders,” a guest we contacted said. Another Sri Lankan said when he ordered a coffee from a particular restaurant in the Mirissa Bay, the waiters had said they only served foreigners and could not serve the locals. However, when contacted by Daily Mirror, one of the restaurant owners wishing to remain unnamed said they had stopped serving food and beverages and providing accommodation to Sri Lankans because of several complaints and mentioned some of the embarrassing incidents which had happened to tourists, tarnishing the image of Sri Lankan hospitality. “Anti-social behaviour causing a nuisance to other guests, harassment, intimidation, threats or actual violence by local guests under the influence of liquor has been reported from many restaurants in the neighborhood including ours. We can’t let down our regular guests because of the locals who create problems for all concerned,” the owner said. The guests urged the Tourism Ministry to intervene in such cases ensure that the locals are not deprived of being served at these hotels. Meanwhile, several attempts made by Daily Mirror to contact the Director General of the Tourism Development Authority to inquire about the complaints had failed. (Piyumi Fonseka)

Hi Sir , Sorry for delaying reply this much . We had a problem with the account and its recovered now.
Sri Lanka do not have PayPal facility for payments and bank payment gate-ways are having high rental fee + Commission of the payment. In order to give best price for the customer we asked for payment.
And some guest found full payment for longer stay as unreasonable which we understand as fair .
So for long stays now we are allowing to pay a day or two to make the reservation confirmed. Also if the reservation is too close for bank processing we accept contact number verification and reservation without any payment.
Hope we have answer correctly and let us know if there is further information needed.
Thanks you
