Guest reviews for Shining Line
"The owners were helpful and smiley. Room was basic but very comfortable for my needs. Clean large open bathroom and firm beds. Strong overhead fan. Large built in polished concrete table to spread out belongings. Clothes drying rack. Breakfast was good when I asked them to add some Sri Lankan food. Upstairs rooms so very private. There were very few tourists in this area. I went for a bike ride around the lake area behind which was nice. It is a 5 minute walk to small town with plenty of food options. Fruit shop across the main road is awesome. Beach is beautifully long and great sand. I would bus 5 minutes to Kalabana beach every morning and afternoon for waves."
"All good. May need to ask for a blanket."
"I cannot thank the owners enough of this guest house. I was involved in an incident which resulted in being admitted into hospital, and the owner went above and beyond to make sure I was okay, checking in with me at the hospital and bringing me food. I’ve never seen such kindness in all my life. The location is amazing and the room was a good size with a nice clean bathroom. They sorted a bike out for me no problem, and are just the most amazing people! Thank you again so much! Definitely recommend!"

"Very close to the train track so if you're a light sleeper this may bother you , however it's great value for money if all you want is a clean bed and a shower"
"Excellent value for money, friendly staff, the quiet beach location of Habaraduwa. Breakfast is the same every day, but good. There are several cafes along the beach. 1 minute walk to the beach. The room was clean."
"Low water pressure in the bathroom."
"It's central to most of the places what you can see in the galle area. Very peaceful and the stuff was very helpful. The beach opposite this place is fantastic. I would definitely will recommend this to anyone. I will be back again for another stay at this place. Thanks for everything."

"My wife and I stayed here for two nights. The location is great, right next to Yala National Park. The huts are hand-built, made of clay, living in them is a unique experience. The host is very kind and friendly, helps in any way he can, we are very grateful to him for that and are glad that we met! 😊 The host also prepared some delicious traditional food for us. He will also help with organizing a safari, and can take you around the area himself and tell you interesting stories!"

"This was a nicely designed hotel, with spacious rooms. Conveniently located for Yala safari pickups. There was even a peacock to greet us every morning outside our balcony!"
Kasturi Arana Yala
"I can’t put into words just how beautiful and spectacular this place is. Honestly WOW! My rooms that had over 15 foot ceilings, everything made of stone, fans and air conditioning, the nature surrounding us, the Pool and the hotel grounds, the warm and amazing staff! My stay was short and I regret not staying longer. Just AMAZING and also the owner was there to answer all my questions and last minute demands. Don’t forget to tip the staff because they go over and beyond for you."

Marga Forestville Yala
"What an unforgettable stay! The location of this camp is beautiful and perfectly located for the safari tour. You have direct access to the dune area during sun set hours. Just be aware that you will have to walk quite a bit through deep sand and there are a lot of nature sounds during the night."
"Lovely design of property, good homemade food and attentive staff. Moonlight safari was well worth it."
Jane Yakaduru - Yala
