Resumen de reseñas de viajeros

Divers Land Hostel en Nilaveli ofrece un ambiente acogedor con personal amable, especialmente Shoy, que es muy servicial. Los huéspedes aprecian las habitaciones limpias, camas cómodas y aire acondicionado potente. Su ubicación tranquila está a un corto paseo de la playa y es una base excelente para buceo y snorkel. Algunas reseñas recientes mencionan la falta de taquillas y una sola toma de corriente en el dormitorio de mujeres.

Shoy's place is the perfect spot to spend some days in Nilaveli! It's a calm hostel, with great vibes, only a few minutes walking from Nilaveli beach (one of the most magic beaches in the world!). Shoy and his crew made us feel like like home, and that is what Shoy wants when you arrive there. It's a sanctuary for dogs, as several dogs live there, Shoy really loves them. Also the hostel has a dive centre at the beach with also the best crew. Totally recommended when visiting Nilaveli. Thank you!

TLDR: Never, under any circumstance, should you stay here. It’s not worth the shakedown if Shoy (the owner) gets drunk, locks you out of your room, and calls the police. Drunk owner attempted to shake me down for 9k LKR the morning I was leaving. Locked the room and called the police. The police were aware of his reputation and released me without paying anything over the original booking amount. Limited to 500 characters. Full review on Google Maps.

His diving instructor, Lisa, is unfortunately also toxic. She co-signed all his nonsense during the exchange, calling me unreasonable. She LARPed as Shoy’s lawyer, encouraging his childish behavior, instead of mediating. Well, Lisa, the police thought I was reasonable. Their opinion actually matters.
