"We stayed here for 3 nights and it was incredible. The room was spacious and we got a room overlooking the sea, which was fantastic. It was clean and cozy, and very quiet and peaceful at night. Rosemary, our front desk host was also lovely. She always had a little chat with us during breakfast each morning. The villa is right in the middle of Tangalle, and we made a few day trips from there, each around an hour or more away. Even so, it felt really nice coming back to Ziba after a day out...

Frequently asked questions

What is the best area to stay in Nilwella?
The best area to stay in Nilwella is along Nilwella Beach itself, particularly the stretch between the Nilwella Lighthouse and the main fishing village.

This area is the heart of Nilwella, offering direct access to the crescent-shaped beach. The main road, Beach Road, runs parallel to the coast, providing easy access to the few guesthouses and local eateries. It's a relatively undeveloped stretch, characterised by golden sands, coconut palms, and the sound of the ocean.

Couples looking for a tranquil escape will find this area perfect. The uncrowded beach offers plenty of space for relaxing walks, swimming, or simply enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The dramatic cliffs near the lighthouse provide picturesque views, especially at sunset, and it's a lovely spot for unwinding together.

For travellers interested in local culture and a bit more activity, staying closer to the fishing village at the eastern end of Nilwella Beach is a good option. Here, you can observe local life, including fishermen bringing in their daily catch, and find small, family-run establishments.
