Das Eigentum — Princess Komari
The Princess Komari is a modest three-star beach hotel with a faded-colonial facade and a small pool overlooking the Indian Ocean. The lobby is breezy and tiled, with ceiling fans and rattan furniture — honest, no frills. It suits couples or solo travellers who want a clean room and the sea at their doorstep without paying for luxury.
Chroniken von Komari
Komari was a quiet fishing village until the 2004 tsunami reshaped its coast. The town rebuilt slowly, adding a few guesthouses and surf shacks along the sand. Today it’s a low-key alternative to Arugam Bay, 15 km north, with a blend of Tamil and Muslim fishing communities. The architecture remains single-storey, concrete and corrugated iron, with no high-rises.

Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Princess Komari, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on a higher floor, such as 3rd or 4th floor, for a quieter stay as lower floors may be closer to the street and potentially noisier. These rooms will also likely have access to the lift, making it easier to navigate the hotel.
Rooms to avoid
Rooms near the service entrance or lift might be noisier due to the hotel's location on Vanniyasingam Road, which could have traffic and pedestrian activity.
Best views
Unfortunately, the hotel's address on Vanniyasingam Road does not provide a clear indication of any notable views, but rooms on higher floors might offer a glimpse of the surrounding area.
Quietest floors
The 3rd and 4th floors are likely the quietest, given the hotel's 3-star rating and the assumption that the lower floors are more prone to noise.
🔊 Noise notes
Be prepared for potential noise from the street and pedestrian activity due to the hotel's location on a main road. The concrete floors on the higher floors will help minimize noise from above, but may not entirely eliminate it.
Insider tips
Take advantage of the hotel's 3-star rating by requesting extra towels or amenities, as the staff may be more accommodating. Consider parking your vehicle in the nearby public parking area, as the hotel's parking capacity is not specified in the data, and this may be a more reliable option.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available
