Amazing location right on Dikwella Beach

Killer location, and a perfectly nice, if basic, hotel right on Dikwella Beach. Clean, comfortable, and unfussy rooms, most with views of the ocean, which is just across the street. Not much in the way of a restaurant, but plenty of local options right on its doorstep. Lovely pool. Nice staff, if a little absentee. So-so WiFi.

Deceiving photos showing the property as being at the beach front, In fact there is a very busy road in front and you step straight on it through the gates (not the gated walkway but car’s gate). This place should never be called a resort it is a 2 star hotel at best. All toilets are very smelly and the family suite only has on a/c for 2 sizeable and very dated rooms. Avoid unless desperate and no other properties are available in the area.

Worst hotel in Sri Lanka and we had a horrible experience there. Extremely dirty and the staff did nothing. They were laughing instead of acknowledging their mistake and apologising. Everything was dirty and especially the bathroom. No towels an asked us to wait for 2h if we Plugs did not work. Woke us up at 7am for no reason. Terrible experience and would not recommend it at all. want ed some.

Would not recommend staying here at all. There was such a weird vibe at the hotel with the staff. The rooms are extremely dirty - and have a horrible drain smell. When asked if we wanted our room cleaned they said we would have to be there to use our key as they don’t accept responsibility for staff going in without you being present. This gave us issues about leaving anything at any time. Further, every morning the staff downstairs blast their music from 8am to the point you can’t hear your own conversations. Overall really poor experience.

Best value for money!

Beautiful location, clean rooms, seaview and beachview from the room and balcony. Best value for money, and extremely friendly staff. They arranget the best prices on the beach for scooter rental, and they reduced the price for brekfast by 90%. I did encounter a broken window that wouldnt close. But their extremely handy staff fixed in in a minute, with a big smile on their face! The hotel is suitable for both families, couples and friends. I really want to come back here.

DO NOT STAY HERE

Appalling service from staff. I confirmed that I wished to stay another night and was told the price and it was no problem. I tried to pay but was told to pay at checkout. Then in the morning they refused this saying as I had not paid yet they did not need to honour this. Ants all through the room and dirty sheets!

Frukosten hade inte kylda frukter trots att jag sa till om det. Man kunde inte beställa vin utan bara öl vilket är ett minus. Personalen var trevliga men långsamma med att leverera handdukar vid incheckning, fick vänta 30 min på det. Annars hade rummet AC och havsutsikt vilket uppskattades.

A Fuir

L'horreur a fuir. NUL😡😡. Cela fait 35 ans que je dors a l'hôtel pour le travail, et là c'est le pire.. Hôtel a l'abandon, aucun entretien. Nous avons eu un invasion de fourmis dans la SDB et dans le lit, odeur d'égout très fortes dans la SDB. Normal la pipe du WC fuit, il y a de l'eau qui sort de la pipe du WC. Quelques réparations on été faites au silicone autour de la pipe en plastique, et encore du silicone. Maintenant odeur d'égout+ odeur de silicone + odeur de désinfectant a fourmis, super pour dormir 😠 Des rous partout dans le carrelage, sale. Nous avons trouvé en rentrant dans la chambre des insectes morts un peu partout, ils sont venus nettoyer.. Les commums sont pitoyables, sales, des toiles d'araignées, toute est abîmé, vétusté. Personnes n'ose petit déjeuner ou manger a la salle principale. Mon drap Etat tâche de sang (mais propre). C'est serviettes de piscine sont tâches. Les transats en bois délabrés, cassés sans cousins. Seul point positif, la piscine en bon état et l'emplacement en face de la superbe plage avec des paillotes sympas pour le petit déjeuner, et pas loin a pied de la plage de Kiriketiya. Cela mériterait un remboursement sur les 3 nuits passées. A FUIR. Dommage car l'hôtel pourrait être super si il était entretenu..😠😠

BO INTE HÄR.

Hotellet är inte så som det ser ut på bilder. Det är nedgånget och slitet. Det var fullt med insikter på rummet, kröp myror i sängen. Vi sa till och önskade ett nytt rum eller pengarna tillbaka. Kollade på ett nytt rum och där var det kackerlackor i badrummet. Vi checkade ut efter första natten av tre bokade, fick ingen återbetalning. Poolen är ok men solsängarna är slitna och det finns ingen dyna att ligga på. Det står skyltar överallt om att hotellet inte ansvarar för stöld av värdesaker vid städning av rummet, de ansvarar ej för missfärgning av kläder som lämnats till tvätt, du ska betala om något går sönder etc. Bara väldigt speciellt och kändes väldigt otryggt.
