- Quiet garden setting away from the main road
- Friendly staff and free breakfast
Brzi pregled: It is a no-frills, 2-star guesthouse that delivers exactly what you pay for—a cheap, clean bed with AC, but do not expect luxury or modern aesthetics.
Pregledano od @vinoja.bandara: My stay at Green Banana Mirissa was exactly what I needed. I loved waking up in the comfy bed, jumping straight into the pool, and spending my days on the beach swing. The food was amazing, and the social vibe made it so easy to meet people. Highly recommend!
