I was in the cabana and it was a great stay. Just be mindful that the room here the bed is very dark (even with lights on) and the way to the bathroom is not made for tall people a little bit dark

Breakfast, location were awesome. Very good part of beach. Variety of places to go. Many thanks to service :) No insects, comfortable rooms (we had family suit with two rooms, both with fan and A/C). Didn’t use the pool because of the sea 🌊

We stayed in the coconut hut all windows were blacked out with blind apart from one so felt very dark and at times. Seeing the other brick ones would have prefer d one of those but ie t was comfortable for the money.

Great little property with lovely welcoming pool and sunbed area. Great short stroll from main beach and bars. Friendly welcoming staff and good food and drinks.

Very happy with our stay. Friendly staff helped to arrange our time in Nilaveli. The beach is amazing, a very nice bar located few minutes from the hotel. Wish we could stay longer!

Absolutely nothing

Bella Nilaveli beach is a fantastic little gem, located only a minute walk from a beautiful quiet beach this charming place has some fantastic villas and apartments nestled in a beautiful garden where they grow there own food for the restaurant.....where you get amazing food. All the staff are so friendly and nothing is a problem. We would most definitely come back here when visiting Sri Lanka

The rooms were a bit small and the bathroom outside.

The property has 2 minutes access to the beach, has a wonderful garden, excellent food (the best grilled prawns ever) and very friendly staff.

Would have been nice to have a few hooks in the outdoor shower area to hang your towel on whilst you had a shower. I think the shower area had deliberate black painted spots on the floor to contrast with the blue painted floor, but it would have been better if it was all black or just concrete colour so it didn't look like mould.

Loved the Cabana accommodation, the pool, the aircon. Nice big outdoor shower area

The bathroom was very outdated, and the door couldn’t close.

Great location right by the beach, the place also looked very peaceful with a nice garden and swimming pool. The food was good, and service also very friendly and helpful.

Lovely staff and great food. Best chicken noodles I have ever eaten.

We had an outdoor shower which is fun but the mosquitos weren’t. Our room could use some upgrade but it didn’t really bother us.

The place is beautiful, with a nice pool, a bar and they grow their own fruits, vegetables and herbs. It’s a very nice and romantic place where you can really relax for a couple of days. Staff is very friendly as well.

A great find on the beach in Trinco. Fabulous pool and so close to the amazing beach. The family room we had with two bedrooms was excellent with fans and AC in each. Beautiful plants in the garden and a balcony with plenty of places to lie in the shades or sun.

Doors could do with a latch to keep them shut when not locked.

Fantastic pool with excellent on site cafe. Short walk to a gorgeous beech, shallow sloping so good for swimming. Breakfasts varied and filling. We booked for 2 nights and stayed for 3. Still quiet in the beach front bars and resteraunts.

We loved everything about the property -the area is a bit grubby and the beach is not the cleanest and out of season not really swimable -but their pool and garden make up for this .Trincomalee was an interesting town and the temple was so vibrant - we had transport so we could go further afield too.

This was a little haven of tranquility ,great staff,delicious food-especially breakfast - A sense of family and safety Lush garden Clean comfortable huts All in all -super -and hard to leave !we loved our open air bathroom -

Nothing all was great, thank you. We took a long walk up the. Beach and we’re saddened by the plastic rubbish but our visit was in the winter off season time. We were told by a number of people that more effort is made in cleaning up the beach area during the main tourist season. Do not let this deter you coming to a wonderful place.

Everything, very relaxed, very clean, great food and coffee plus and not least, the staff were very welcoming and the pool was lovely. The manager organised a snorkelling trip to Pigeon Island to swim with the turtles and reef sharks. The guide he provided was excellent. A tuc tuc driver was organised to take us onwards to Trimcomalee and we happily agreed for him to take us all the way to Polloanwara which was much appreciated and a good fair price. Thank you to all Team Bella for making our stay so memorable.

Warm and friendly welcome to this beautiful place. Lovely pool and gardens. Great food and located just a few yards from the beach. Highly recommended.

However, we would have liked more variety for lunch and dinner. Although the menu had more options, only fried rice and pasta were offered daily. On a positive note, we brought our own fish, and they cooked it beautifully and deliciously for a small fee. There was no room service, and it would have been nice to be asked if we needed fresh towels or linen, although perhaps we should have requested it ourselves.

The place offers a comfortable stay with a nice pool and a lovely garden. It also has its own small library, café and restaurant. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The beach is just a few minutes' walk away. We appreciated that the breakfast included a variety of different Sri Lankan dishes each day.

Agee (sp?) and the rest of the staff were very friendly and helpful. They organised scooter hire, plus info on where to eat. Great location near the beach. The outdoor bathroom was a hit with us. Definitely recommend staying here. Bella and Fury, the dogs were also very friendly not to mention the cats.
