Our trip to Sri Lanka was on a very tight schedule because we wanted to see the most important sights and we only had a very short time, due to this we had to change locations almost every day, sleeping in different hotels or resorts.
In Mirissa we checked in at the newly opened Ubuntu Beach Boutique Hotel by Lantern Collection.
We chose this hotel due to its unique look and mostly for its private beach right in front of it.
The hotel has a very modern and minimalist design that gives of more of a "private house on the beach" vibe.
The place is indeed a bit far from the Mirissa centre but it's a short and cheap tuk tuk drive away, around 2$, but instead you'll have a perfect sleep at night as it is really quiet.
In terms of activities, we found this to be a great place for relaxation, from either swimming in one of the two pools, to reading a book on one of the hammocks or just exploring the secluded and lovely beach. There is also a spa, which we recommend as we really enjoyed our massage there.
We also liked the breakfast here, which tried to put a modern spin to the traditional Sri Lankan cuisine and everything was delicious.
For us this was the perfect place from where to explore Mirissa and we will for sure choose it again if we return to Sri Lanka.
