"Booked this hotel through Expedia prior to my trip, when I landed in Colombo I received a text message from a French (+33) number saying that my booking at The Coconut would be cancelled, and that the prices I had booked were no longer valid! My only choices were to cancel the booking or pay the "new prices" which were 3x higher! I ended up saying I didn't want the booking and found other accommodations.

"**"Conveniently Located with a Few Perks (and Some Room for Improvement)"** Looking for a spot close to the surf? 🏄‍♂️ This place is a winner! Conveniently located on the main street where all the action is, with street parking right by the boundary wall—super easy! 🚗 The rooms are clean, though the linens and toiletries could use a little upgrade. But the real MVP? Indaka, the super friendly and helpful staff member. Perfect if you're into surfing or swimming at the nearby sea! ….a walk on...

Top Elephant Rock Hotel Reviews

Arugambay Roccos

10/10 Excellent

"I got to Rocco’s early August 2026 and it was so hot during the day. The rooms had really good air conditioning and there is a nice pool near by. The staff are very hospitable and super friendly."

Arugambay PodBay

10/10 Excellent

"Close to everything with great staff, breakfast and the rooms were very comfortable. Would stay again"

Harmony Beach Hotel

8/10 Good

"Would recommend. Room was clean and large. Location excellent- on the main strip but property itself is quiet which was good. Friendly staff"

Jetwing Surf & Safari, A Luxury Reserve

10/10 Excellent

"Beautiful resort in great location "

Hotel Alaskabay Arugambay

8/10 Good

"There was a problem with our reservation as apparently hotels.com bookings do not transfer over to the hotels system and therefore they had no record of our booking. This meant that they did not have the rooms that we had booked available. The hotel owner/manager was very helpful in finding us different rooms but these were not what had been reserved and meant that we had to separate family members which was not ideal for a week. Other than that the breakfast was good, the rooms were clean and beds were comfy. The pool was really nice (although the area around it could be improved) and the location was perfect for access to the beach and restaurants. "
