Beautiful room and amazing staff, very friendly and helpful (helped us organizing activities, exchanging money, arranging a taxi to Yala…). The location was extremely convenient, very close to the beach and to the delicious restaurants in the area. A 2 min walk to the main road to find a Tuk Tuk to anywhere. We had a great time, great value for money!

Bike hire is available at this guest house and the area is popular for diving. The guest house also offers car hire. Kanniya Hot Springs is 3.6 km from Alass Ga for pets lovers, while Koneswaram Temple is 5 km from the property.

The host is such a great guy. Along with his many cars and dogs and his sweet mother, the host made my stay one I didn’t want to leave! Real life working aircon provided (not a fan— the real deal!) The room was cool on arrival and functioned perfectly. The bed and pillows were super comfy. 5 minute walk to the beach and restaurants.

The air-conditioned accommodation is 300 metres from Uppuveli beach, and guests can benefit from private parking available on site and free WiFi.

Trincomalee Railway Station is 5.7 km from the guest house, while Kali Kovil is 6.7 km from the property. The nearest airport is China Bay Airport, 10 km from Paris Garden Resort.

The resort is located a short distance from the sea, there is a swimming pool, the room has air conditioning and a fan, and a private bathroom with hot water. There is a good Wi-Fi connection in the room. I originally planned to stay for two nights, but had to extend my stay by one night because it was really good. The staff was very helpful, recommended good and cheap restaurants. In the end, on the day of departure I needed to leave the room only at 9 pm due to the evening bus connection, and there was only a small, understandable surcharge.

    Ubay Guest House is a high quality accommodation 200 meters away from Uppuveli beach. The surroundings are modest but you can find everything you may need. The bed was extremely comfortable. The food from Paul’s (the host) restaurant is very delicious! I had fresh prawns and fish and was mesmerized. Recommended!

    Nicest hosts we have had so far. Amazing meals prepared on the property by family. Amazing location. Nice swimming beach. Nice, quiet location set in local village. Enjoyed being included in local festivities. Villagers very friendly. Nothing was too much trouble for Vathani and family - we were very sad to leave this place. Would highly recommend.
