I loved the design and decor, very close to nature around it. The hosts are great. Very well informed and accommodating. They were able to prepare packed breakfast for me during my stay as I was leaving the property very early. The animals are also very docile and friendly. I also walked away with a bunch of plant cuttings and a recipe for deviled calamari!

Nice place—good value for the price. The family running it is very welcoming, kind, and decent, which made the stay feel comfortable. It’s just about 50m to the beach, so the location is also ideal. There are also some nice restaurants nearby if you want to try something different. Overall, a great stay!

We had a wonderful 3 day stay at Blue Wings.Probahh and his wife Wiji did everything they could to make our stay comfortable .The breakfast and dinners were amazing with a variety of meals. Probahh organised a scooter for me within an hour of our arrival which enabled us to get around easily. The beach was just 20 meters away where we could take a swim and relax. The hotel is in a quiet non touristy part of town which was what we liked. Would definitely recommend staying if coming to Trincomalee.

A perfect couple of days staying at this wonderful new property in Uppeveli. The room was very spacious and light, the mattress and bed were really comfortable, the bathroom is also wonderfully soacious with 2 very good showers. Beyond the bedrooms, there are plenty of more communal spaces (currently no seating, but you can easily take the chair from your bedroom out here) and a wonderful veranda surrounding the whole of the 1st floor. The host is incredibly kind and helpful, and is able to arrange tours with his contacts if you would like. Location wise, it is down a quiet lane just off the main road, making it easy to access yet remarkably peaceful. You can access the beach a 5 minute walk away, which is perfectly okay if you would like to go for a beach walk or watch a gorgeous sunrise with the locals out on their finishing boats. Beyond that, just a 5 minute Tuktuk ride away is Fernando’s bar, which has a lively beach bar feel, catering for any kind of food, with hammocks and sun loungers under the palms, and beach parties every night. 5 minutes in the other direction from the hotel is Trincomalee, allowing you to see the more cultural side of the area. All in all, this great new property is great value, in the ideal location to explore the areas easily, and with a host who bends over backwards to accommodate you- if you are looking for a place to stay near Trincomalee, this is the place to go.

We had another booking in Trinco but some unexpected events in our previous accommodation forced us to find something new. Sunbreeze was even better than our previous one. The family was really nice and welcoming asking about everything we need and taking care of us. There is such a nice and family atmosphere :). You have AC in your room, you can use balcony and common terrace. Room was very clean with enough places to leave your things. The owner is also renting scooters for such a fair price which we used. Thank you very much

    Our room was extremely comfortable and well air-conned. Our lovely host was extremely accommodating and kind throughout our stay. He brought us tea whenever we asked as well as helped us arrange a snorkelling trip. We also loved the cats! There were many cats to play with, all extremely friendly and adorable. We wish the host all the best with rescuing more cats and dogs.

    The host and his family are super friendly and helpful. They allowed us to check in earlier than expected and provided us with a lovely cup of coffee on arrival. We really got the feel of a home stay. The back of the property enters right onto the beach. The beach where the property is situated is private and private. Perfect for relaxation after busy days. We stayed for 3 nights and it was perfect for this length.
