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.

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!

A Fuir

L'horreur a fuir. NUL😡😡. Cela fait 35 ans que je dors a l'hĂŽtel pour le travail, et lĂ  c'est le pire.. HĂŽtel a l'abandon, aucun entretien. Nous avons eu un invasion de fourmis dans la SDB et dans le lit, odeur d'Ă©gout trĂšs fortes dans la SDB. Normal la pipe du WC fuit, il y a de l'eau qui sort de la pipe du WC. Quelques rĂ©parations on Ă©tĂ© faites au silicone autour de la pipe en plastique, et encore du silicone. Maintenant odeur d'Ă©gout+ odeur de silicone + odeur de dĂ©sinfectant a fourmis, super pour dormir 😠 Des rous partout dans le carrelage, sale. Nous avons trouvĂ© en rentrant dans la chambre des insectes morts un peu partout, ils sont venus nettoyer.. Les commums sont pitoyables, sales, des toiles d'araignĂ©es, toute est abĂźmĂ©, vĂ©tustĂ©. Personnes n'ose petit dĂ©jeuner ou manger a la salle principale. Mon drap Etat tĂąche de sang (mais propre). C'est serviettes de piscine sont tĂąches. Les transats en bois dĂ©labrĂ©s, cassĂ©s sans cousins. Seul point positif, la piscine en bon Ă©tat et l'emplacement en face de la superbe plage avec des paillotes sympas pour le petit dĂ©jeuner, et pas loin a pied de la plage de Kiriketiya. Cela mĂ©riterait un remboursement sur les 3 nuits passĂ©es. A FUIR. Dommage car l'hĂŽtel pourrait ĂȘtre super si il Ă©tait entretenu..😠😠

BO INTE HÄR.

Hotellet Àr inte sÄ som det ser ut pÄ bilder. Det Àr nedgÄnget och slitet. Det var fullt med insikter pÄ rummet, kröp myror i sÀngen. Vi sa till och önskade ett nytt rum eller pengarna tillbaka. Kollade pÄ ett nytt rum och dÀr var det kackerlackor i badrummet. Vi checkade ut efter första natten av tre bokade, fick ingen Äterbetalning. Poolen Àr ok men solsÀngarna Àr slitna och det finns ingen dyna att ligga pÄ. Det stÄr skyltar överallt om att hotellet inte ansvarar för stöld av vÀrdesaker vid stÀdning av rummet, de ansvarar ej för missfÀrgning av klÀder som lÀmnats till tvÀtt, du ska betala om nÄgot gÄr sönder etc. Bara vÀldigt speciellt och kÀndes vÀldigt otryggt.

Very Disappointed!!

This hotel has a lot going for it but under current management it definitely won’t succeed. The manager just walks around, never actually doing anything & if asked something never really knew the answer It has a lovely looking bathroom but the water pressure is so bad it took almost an hour to half full the bath......then I gave up. They advertise a “mini bar” there’s NO mini bar, there is a small fridge & tea & coffee making facilities. Actually I don’t recall the restaurant being licensed either. The $6USD breakfast ( that you have to order on checkin) is a joke, 3 tiny chipolatas, 3 potato wedges, 2 small tomato slices, eggs didn’t even half full the plate. Did get toast & fruit but it’s an absolute rip off. The pool closes at 7pm, there is a beach opposite which you can swim at all day but at dark ( when it’s still 30 plus degrees) you can only look at the pool because it’s closed. The beach is right out the front of the hotel it’s a nice beach but there is a dirty, smelly patch of water on the sand ( drain?) that you have to walk past. There are sun loungers on the beach outside the hotel ( but aren’t operated by the hotel) so you have to pay to use them) a hotel in this price range should provide them. The internet is appalling, it took almost 3 hours on our arrival to get a connection & that kept dropping out. Our entire stay was a complete disappointment. After one night we walked 500m or so down the beach where we luckily found the “Madu Friendly Villa “
