Hostels in Eastern Province

"Friendly staff, very clean room with comfortable bed and pillows. Clean pool and jacuzzi. Easy walk to the beach and other restaurants."

"Stay was ok but could have been better"

"Rooms were clean and comfortable with a spacious bathroom. Dining buffets were diverse and the staff were excellent and hospitable. Beach acces was spectacular. The pool was good but a little to shallow for me. The one thing put me a little off was that they provide driver accommodation but the driver accommodation was poor at best. My driver reported the A/C had been removed and the fans were sub par that they had to put buckets of cool water to keep the room cool enough to sleep. In the heat of Sri Lanka, I would not have put my driver in such accommodation."

"Great hotel"

"Warm, friendly staff - this hotel had a beautifully designed main building where we enjoyed al fresco eating from the varied and superbly cooked/arranged buffet. After dinner we enjoyed the ping pong and pool table which helped entertain our family. The swimming pool was sublime. The gardens, pathways and trees leading down to the beach were well kept and helped support a relaxing atmosphere. The bedrooms had everything we needed as well as incredibly comfortable beds - quiet, with the added bonus of a balcony. We loved our family holiday! The only thing we thought needed improving was the bar. It was not a relaxing place to sit and had uncomfortable chairs. If there had been a place to chill out comfortably with ambient music where we could purchase drinks and icecream - that would have been ideal. Hopefully, this could be incorporated into the rebuild of the beach bar. "

"Modern and clean apartment. Had everything we needed for a family with children including a washing machine. Great location right on the beach. Staff were very helpful and welcoming. "

"The hotel had been abandoned. We managed to check-in but there have been no staff onsite since. A local has told us that the Indian company that owns the hotel has not paid the local staff wages and they have been forced to leave. The hotel is filthy, there is literally no staff anywhere to be seen. "

"Excellent in everything. In house dining is excellent with extremely courteous and friendly staff and very good, delicious choices. Manager was present everywhere and was very friendly and helpful. "

"Great location by the ocean. And the pool ain’t either. Best access to Pidgeon Island. Staff was really helpful and food was good. "
