The White House, hotel in Trincomalee

Set just 300 metres from Uppuveli beach, The White House features accommodation in Trincomalee with access to a garden, a shared lounge, as well as luggage storage space.

Everything about the White House is just amazing. It’s one of the nicest places I stayed at in Sri Lanka and I felt at home the second I stepped in. Rangan, the owner, is way more than a great host. He is like a brother. The garden is beautiful and everything around the property is neat and clean! The rooms are superbly clean, beds are comfy, there are fans and mosquito nets and it’s quiet. The cleanliness was exceptional. Highly recommend! Thank you Rangan!

    Stayed here with our 16 year old ,we wanted to experience staying in a cabana . Great location, very close to the beach, sea safe for swimming and beach clean compared to Trincomalee beaches. Host and his family were so friendly and helpful. Organised our boat trip, tuk tuk rides and onwards travel. Food at their restaurant was excellent, tasty , freshly cooked and good price. So glad we stayed here and not at one of the bigger commercialised properties. Great value. Thank you for a lovely stay.

    We are a family of 5 including 3 kids, stayed at Vistara Guest house during our Trinco visit. We booked the entire house. The guest house was very clean & very spacious to accommodate our family. We really enjoyed the view from the guest house. Having a food city on the ground floor was very convenient to get the items needed during our stay. The host was very helpful and accommodated our requests to make our stay very comfortable.

    Nice hotel, clean, comfortable, great location - practically on the beach. The owner is a great host, super helpful and responsive on WhatsApp. Scooter rental available at the property. On our last evening we took a cooking class with the owners wife which was great. The food was tasty. Very good price as well. The owner also kindly arranged a taxi back to Negombo for us for an unbeatable price. Recommended.
