Very affordable, great pool and location on the beach. Breakfast was great and the views from our room was splendid as well. I give it 4 stars because the staff was really bad at washing our clothes so do that somewhere else. Otherwise great place! ##### Majken Hauge Stayed 2 nights in Apr 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rebecca Mar 24, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Nice guesthouse, remote Very cute little guesthouse. Note that it is in the middle of nowhere, so if you want to explore it's not very convenient. Also you are basically bound to the hotel restaurant, which is decent but not fancy. But the rooms and pool area are nice, with an exit onto the beach. Super good value for a getaway when you truly just want to relax :) ##### Rebecca Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Michelle May 28, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### A truely wonderful stay Our stay at Ziegler Cottage was truely remarkable. It can only be described as a little piece of paradise. A truely beautiful place where I could relax in a way I haven't for years & as a result I think I healed. The spectacular garden backs onto the beach & we saw the most incredible sunsets. The staff were amazing & they looked after us in a way I've never experienced.We felt like royalty.

The pool is really nice and the sea is close, although it is not possible to swim there. The place is a bit run down, but I think the price paid was fair. The staff are really really nice, with Lucky helping us and booking for us a couple of day trips. I did also enjoy the food, which had that homemade taste which was welcome after eating out so much while on holiday. I would stay again. ##### Andreia Stayed 5 nights in Aug 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### David Jan 19, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Nice place for a couple days ##### David Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Harry Feb 19, 2025 . ##### Harry Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### Abdulla Feb 24, 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Not great When I arrived they checked me in a 4 walls. No window, like I have been checked in prison. I asked to change room and they told me nothing available. Instead they asked me if I want to go another hotel which they can help with. It was like 5pm and had a long day, I just wanted to check in and relax. But I was taken to another hotel and had to wait like another 1 hr. I wouldn’t come back again! ##### Abdulla Stayed 1 night in Feb 2025 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Jacqueline Bette Apr 18, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities The breakfast was fantastic. The rooms are clean however, I have to mention that I was traveling as a solo female and a staff member was watching me through holes in my door after I showered in the morning. I sent a message to the manager of the property to please address the issue with staff through whatsapp and received no response. I had to cover the holes myself and was disgusted for most of my stay. I sent multiple requests for an airport pickup which were ignored and then, I was asked mockingly if I got a ride days after I arrived. When I arranged for a tour to a place 6hrs away, the tour driver decided he would try to stay in my room which I had to adamantly object to. Are you kidding me? This was not my first trip to Sri lanka but this was by far my worst. I have doubts this is run by a German family. Who is Hans the man behind the magic curtain who you never actually see? I do hope some improvements are made so other tourists don't feel as uncomfortable as I did. ##### Jacqueline Bette Stayed 17 nights in Feb 2024 Verified ### 2/10 Terrible #### Nick Mar 15, 2026 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Overall a bad experience. There are far better hotels/stays for just a few more quids: Room condition: Degraded, dirty and with questionable stains everywhere and we witnessed ants moving pieces of food from under the bed (see photos). Cupboard couldn’t close properly and pops open midnight. Windows had strong watermarks so you can’t really enjoy the view. Service: The manager look-a-like gives zero respect to customers, abruptly stopping people mid sentence to say whatever he needs to say. The staff is very cheeky, asking for more tips rudely (literally said “this is little money, more?”) even though we already tipped well above standards. Location: It locates right below the landing path of airplanes so you wouldn’t be able to catch a good night sleep here. It looks like it’s near the airport, but in reality it will take you 40mins to get to the airport, as it locates right in the middle of the strip with no bridge to cut across to the airport. Overall, it’s an utter waste of a could-be-lovely seaside cottage. ![Ants moving rotten food from under the bed.](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9d7f4cc5-e0ee-45d5-b28f-a4f7b37b3cf5-1773584551838.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/c3b3ce29-0081-48a6-b7c4-98b116a638f0-1773584559163.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/9bfa1106-beb2-46bc-bdc7-d27498294c4e-1773584570279.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ![](https://a.travel-assets.com/ugc/hotel-reviews/ffb96b74-a3b8-4292-b4b8-5a79abe2dac3-1773584574652.jpg?impolicy=resizecrop&rw=204&ra=fit&q=high) ##### Nick Stayed 1 night in Mar 2026 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### FRANCESCO Dec 26, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Colazione non abbondantissima come scelta ma con ottima qualità ##### FRANCESCO Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karl Dec 3, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities Personalet ##### Karl Stayed 2 nights in Nov 2025 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Stefan Nov 20, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service All good ##### Stefan Stayed 1 night in Nov 2025 Verified ### 8/10 Good #### Thierry May 29, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Petit hôtel propre, en bord de plage, avec piscine, équipe sympa et prêt à rendre service.
