Set peacefully amongst coconut palms, about 400 paces from a safe, sandy beach; Premlanka Hotel opened in 2009. It is a friendly family run small hotel with all modern amenities. Five en suite double bedrooms with showers, toilets, ceiling fans, electric points and balconies. All bedrooms are furnished with four-poster beds equipped with full mosquito nets. These high-ceilinged rooms are cooled by sea breezes. The hotel is naturally cool, helped by the attractive "waterfall indoor garden" built into the stair well.

Upstairs, there is a large high-ceilinged guest lounge, leading to a large communal balcony; downstairs, the dining room opens onto the gardens.
All rooms have their own private balconies, overlooking Premlanka's gardens, where guests may sit and read, watch the many colourful wild birds... or simply relax. The ocean (only about 300 metres away) glints through the coconut trees, adding the gentle soothing sounds of waves.
Guests will enjoy relaxing in Premlanka's secluded walled gardens. The gardens are largely grassed, with trees, flowering shrubs and of course a variety of coconut trees. At night the gardens are lit by coloured lights. There is an outdoor shower to rinse off the sand and seawater after returning from the beach.
All meals are home cooked with fresh food from the nearby market or fishermen. We are currently developing a traditional spice and medicinal herbal garden.
Premlanka Hotel is just a 10 minute walk from Dickwella town, on a quiet lane. The coconut covered hillside behind the hotel shields it from the noise and bustle of the main Colombo–Hambantota coast road. This is an ideal base for swimming or scuba diving; visits to temples and local events; excursions; ...or simply relaxing to the sounds of tropical birds and the ocean.
