Gomez Place was a wonderful hotel. Gomez, Tharusha and the whole team were incredibly welcoming and made me feel at home. My room was large and had the biggest bathroom! There was an in-room safe, AC, Hot Water, parking at the back of the property, and walking distance to restaurants and beach. Breakfast was plentiful. Highly recommended.

We had a wonderful stay at Gomez’s place. This place is a hidden gem and a quiet sanctuary away from the busy city. He and his staff were welcoming and very helpful, especially with helping us connect with the airline after losing our bags. He also set up a driver for us to our next location at a good price. He has owned his place for 28 years, here’s hoping for many more!

I had a wonderful experience during my recent stay at Gomez Place. Everything about the hotel was exceptional, but I was particularly impressed by the beautiful garden, which provided a perfect and serene atmosphere. Additionally, the staff were incredibly friendly and went above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay. I would like to give a special mention to the owner, Mr. Gomez, for his exceptional hospitality and for maintaining such a high standard of service at the property. Thank you for the excellent service. I look forward to visiting again soon.

We booked as it had a good review. On arrival we thought the rooms were a bit dated but everything went up from there. The grounds are lovely, nice and intimate, the staff were fantastic and Mr Gomez greeted us at breakfast every morning. You will get offered eggs for breakfast but you can ask for a menu but limited offerings. having said that the eggs/omelette were fine for us. Nothing was too much trouble for the staff. I would stay again.

This is a very nice place to stay. Near the beach but an oasis of calm in the hotel. All the staff are very welcoming and helpful. I liked the pool for my water yoga and there was always some shade and sunshine so you could be comfortable.
