When, back in this freezing and grey Europe, I'm overwhelmed by stress, tension and work, I use to remind me the sweet (and sometimes hot...) memories of Gomez Place and, instantly, I cool down, feel everything easy and my heart is filled with happiness, just dreaming about coming back again... Kisses to Gomez, Anton and Tuchara.

Dear Gomez, dear wonderful staff. After 10 days in this paradise we had to go back to cold germany. We had a wonderful time at Gomez. Everything was just great. The rooms are just great. Every morning we enjoyed our wonderful breakfast. The entire staff is extremely friendly and helpful. Every wish will be fullfiled within a few minutes. There is nothing about this place we want to be changed. Hopefully there will be also the chance to get some food when we are back in May. Take care all of you...we will be back...that is a promise!!!!

In my life I travelled already a lot, but never I was in such a beautiful and nice guest-house as here in Gomez-Place.All is naturally kind and friendly,most the staff and the owner, Gomez himself. All wishes are fulfilled with a smile on the face. I find no words for this place, only "WONDERFUL", what really means: FULL of WONDERS in the most positive way. The rooms and the surroundings are beautiful and naturally nice and tasteful. I come back and back again, as I really feel at home in this marvellous guest-house. It is unique for me !!!! Thanx a lot to all, the staff and Mr Gomez and the kind guests one can get to know there very easily and kindly.Best wishes,Norbert from Cologne/Germany

Coming to Gomez Place already many years and love to come back again every time :) Now the new rooms are finished, great style and the new rooms number 12+14 on the first floor of the new building have an almost private huge terrace. The staff is great and always smiling. A great place for gays and their friends!

My first trip to Sri Lanka was a nice trip. I arrived very late in Colombo Airport and got a pick-up at the airport as requested. Only 20 min. later I was at Gomezplace. I got a warm welcome by the smiling staff and help with my luggage. The room was clean and beautiful flower knobs had been spread all over the bed. Next morning my table, in front of my room in the garden, had been prepared for breakfast. I got a lovely omelette, with fresh coffe, mango juice (freshly pressed), toast and fresh fruit. The staff was very helpful, I got good advice and suggestions for my tours to see the beautiful country. I went around Negombo in a tuk-tuk, got helpt to arrange a tour to Colombo and all the way to Kandy with a nice and helpful, English speaking driver. The swimming pool is clean and nice, the garden is beautiful and the location is excellent, only 5 min. walk from the main road with lots of restaurants, bars, all kinds of shops, ATM and tourist boutiques. I was there only for 5 days, but next time I will definitely stay longer. Thank you!

Even before I could upload the pictures that i took of Sri Lanka, I decided to write about how beautiful our stay was at Gomez Place and without an inkling of a doubt i know that this experience would stay in my memory till the end of time; However, I had to make sure that what i state here should not miss even a single point as to how amazing Gomez and his crew were, otherwise it would be a gross injustice done to the. At this juncture, i should mention that the "crew" as i would like to call them than Gomez's employees (not mentioning names here because it was so hard to remember them since it was more like tongue twisters in English), were the best you could find anywhere in this world. Courteous, patient and very well mannered are the words that come to mind every time I think of them. They were friendly at all times and their skills at making the bed and decorating the sheets left me awe struck. Last but not least, Gomez was the perfect host that we could ask for. His attitude is in no doubt the source for his employees. Gomez has done a wonderful job considering all gamete of running a resort and it sure made our stay most memorable. Immaterial of the number of competitions out there, Gomez Place would always be my first choice. Home away from home is an understatement for what you get at Gomez Place. It is a home by itself that you cannot compare it something else. At times i think Gomez Place is the Home and in India, its just a house.

Another couple of weeks based at Gomezplace, held my birthday there - Gomez arranged everything... 60 guests, brilliant food. Gomez has opened a further four superior rooms and refurbished two others. All are elegant and comfortable. The four staff are wonderful, and friends who pass through are as delightful as ever. And I have to say the guests are, whether couples, male or female, very interesting people - conversations abound. I love this place. Well done, Gomez.

Spent 5 days in Gomez Place last week.What an experience that was! Everything was perfect- the room, the food, the warmth & hospitality, just about everything. It certainly is a home away from home!It was so good that I am returning there again very soon. Thanks Selvaraj for everything. I don't think I'll forget this place ever!!

Hi, I stayed a few nights at Gomez Place in August 2010 and it was a fab experience. I had a great time there. As other people mentioned it, I felt really at home as the staff was friendly an made me feel welcome. Breakfast was just great! The room was clean and spacious. Facilities were good ( free wi-fi, swimming-pool, safe etc...) I would have no hesitation recommending this place. As a matter of fact, I think that this place is a MUST! Thank you Gomez and your team. Hope to visit you gain soon. Sam

Gomez Place - what a find. I just made my first short visit there but will be back again soon. Spotlessly clean, A/c in the rooms, hot water, a pool, snacks, drinks, and of course renowned Sri Lankan friendliness and smiles. Thank you so much Gomez, and the guys. Best wishes, Denis

I stayed 4 nights at Gomez Place begining of february 2010 and decided to come back 4 more nights after a 10 days tour of Sri Lanka. A guesthouse is supposed to have a family atmosphere but at Gomez Place you have much more than that : u feel like if you were staying on holidays with friends you know for years !! Gomez and his staff have always nice, discreet and smiling attention to you always happy to give you usefull information or to provide you with even the most insignificant need or wish. Really a very confortable and well furnished guesthouse (individual safety boxes, free wifi, cable TV, A/C,...) where you can stay and relax during days or weeks ! Thank you to the team for this wonderfull stay and I really look foward to come back again very soon :-))

Karel from Holland from Netherlands
Last holiday I decided to stay 2 nights in Gomez Place. The main reason was the convenience staying near the airport. But now I realise that Gomez Place is much more. In this guesthouse I felt myself relaxing and comfortable. No formalities. I could be like home. Of course I will be back as soon as possible.

I've just finished a 3 night diversion from my holiday in Thailand, with a stay at Gomez Place, Negombo. It is my secound visit here as I first came for a 12 day visit in April 2009. The place is superb, with a level of attention to detail and personnal service that warranted my travel deviations. Gomez is your on site owner and host, who along with his great young team deliver to your wildest expectations!!! All rooms are nice, all have clor TV with 40+ cable channels, air-con and constant hot water for both shower and sinks. There is an electronic safe in each room, which is both secure and convenient. I will be back for sure. Many many guests i've met here are repeat visitors; and if you stay here you;ll know why. Tony UK

Arion Stone from United States of America
I visited Sri Lanka at the end of January 2009 for business. Unfortunately I was there at a time when Gomez didn't have a room available, BUT Gomez found me a charming place to stay for a reasonable price with a friend. He and his staff were SO helpful and kind to me despite my own foolishness having gotten me into BIG trouble. Thanks SO MUCH, Gomez and Staff!! If I'm ever allowed back into Sri Lanka I'll be staying at GOMEZ PLACE!!! Hugs! ~Arion Stone, Palo Alto, CA USA

Visited April 2008; booked on departure for September 2008 - hope to go many times. Excellent base for exploration; or for a serious chill. Agree with all the comments. Oasis. Recommended. (Make sure you do the Lagoon in the early morning. An ornithologist's dream world.)

A unique guesthouse with a friendly easygoing relaxed charm, managed by the extraordinary Gomez and his marvellous staff. No nightclubs but great beaches and some excellent restaurants a few minutes walk away. A great place to chill. A real Sri Lankan Gem !

I first stayed at Gomez Place in 2005 after a recommendation for a good friend who had lived for many years in Italy. Since then I have visited several more times and am always looking forward to the next time. Gomez is a wonderful guy who is fun, discreet and trustworthy - all key things to make a stay extra special. The food, service and staff are first rate. Well done machan - keep it up!

Kavinda from Canada
What can I say? Friendly staff and visitors, homely, Gomezy (Mr. Gomez is a AAA+), laid back, exciting when so desired, quiet and restful when so desired, clean, fresh tropical juice and fruits for breakfast served outside your room, air-conditioning, hot water, fridge in each room, WiFi Internet for the workaholics, a friendly dog (Mr. Jake) and a friendly cat, swimming pool, no noise pollution like everywhere else in Sri Lanka, no touts, nice restaurants and beach at a walking distance……a little gem. Viva la Gomez Place.

I have just spent a weeks break at Gomez Place. It was recommended by a friend, and I have to say it completely surpassed any expectation I had. Gomez knows everyone!

I cant decide wether Gomez the person is the better find or GOMEZ PLACE itself. Its home away from home not only for the international traveller but also for locals like me and my partner who just need a nice cosy and pampered break away from the madness of Colombo. Beautiful.

My "country" is actually "world citizen", as for 30 years I've lived in Europe, Thailand, and visited Africa and.... Sri Lanka!! with Bob Gannon (see above) as my guide. Gomez Place should be "Gomez Paradise" - because all your desires will be satisfied there - as mine were. Can't wait to make another visit. By the way, don't worry about what's going on elsewhere - you're safe here! Are you ready for me Gomez????

I have been in Sri Lanka for 3 months and keep coming back to Gomez Place as the best place to stay anywhere on the island. The standards are very high and the place is well run and you are made to feel at home right away. Nothing is too much of a problem for Gomez and his staff and I never want to leave. Highly recommended.
