Plantation House

We stayed 5 nights in this beautiful bed &breakfast. The owners, Peter and Glenda, did everything to make us feel good. Our room was very clean and comfy, breakfast on the terrace every morning was the best in our 3 weeks in SL. 10 min. walk from Hikkaduwa and the beach and restaurants.

A must stay place if you're in the area. Pure quality in all aspects. Great spacious rooms with quality bedding & very good facilities. Breakfast is awesome, either Sri Lankan or western; both have a twist to the usual breakfasts on offer. Chilled out pool. Peter's (the owner) enthusiasm for running the place is highly commendable; he just wants everything to be perfect for your visit. Highly recommended.

Amazing hosts & staff with an outstanding breakfast! Beautiful boutique hotel with a gorgeous garden and lovely pool. The room was spacious and spotless with great facilities. Fridge, safe, water provided and tea and coffee making facilities. Nice outdoor seating area with our ground floor room. Short Tuk Tuk ride to the beach tho you can walk along the lane no problem. Highly recommend.

We spent two weeks at Plantation House spanning December '23 and January '24. It's the perfect place to chill, relax and, if you want, to base yourself to see other interesting parts of the Island such as the mountain top town of Ella, the tea plantations and the National Park at Yella. Or just stay put at Hikkaduwa and a short walk will take you to the beach and all the entertainment, dining and service facilities that you would want on holiday. The house has five well-equipped and comfortable bedrooms with both roof fan and air-con. The pool is perfect and the gardens lush, private, peaceful and secluded. Our hosts Peter and Glenda were, welcoming, helpful and the service was faultless. It has night security. Peter's Sri Lankan and/or western breakfast was the perfect way to start the day and never the same menu two days running. The TukTuk team attached to the house were always responsive wherever we wanted to go or be picked up from. In fact, it was so special that we have already booked to go back next year. It really is a gem and certainly was everything we had on our holiday planning list. Would recommend it as being exceptional value.

We intended to stay at the Plantation House for 10 days - it was such an amazing place and experience that we stayed for a month. Peter and Glenda are fabulous hosts. The place is incredible - the rooms are spotless and comfortable, the grounds are a peaceful oasis and the swimming pool is pristine. PH is located a short walk from Hikkaduwa giving you the best balance of serenity and access to the beach and many restaurants on the Hikkaduwa *****. Peter's boundless energy and desire to ensure his guests have only the best experience is quite the sight. We can recommend staying at PH without exception. Oh…I almost forgot to mention the incredible breakfasts that Peter prepares with his lovely Sri Lankan assistants.

I stayed here with my wife and adult daughter, intending to stay for 3 nights at the end of a 4 week tour of Sri Lanka. Within a very short time after arriving we all agreed that it was the best property we had stayed in and that we would stay an additional 3 nights until the end of our holiday. The host, Peter, has a long history in hospitality and his experience and attention to detail was obvious, a man with good knowledge of the area and a delight to have conversations with. The rooms were spacious, clean and contained everything we wanted from a hotel room. The breakfasts were exceptional, the gardens and swimming pool were beautiful. Should we return to Sri Lanka we would definitely stay here again, highly recommended.
