Perfect location!! Would move here if I could
Pros:

Loved the location as it was super central, rooms were fine and had everything we needed. Helpful and polite staff. Would stay here again in a heartbeat

Cons:

The only issue we had was sand everywhere- mainly from surfing and getting it everywhere but there was no way to clean it - wouldn’t mind a broom in the room and also a fresh change of towels.

Pros:

Great location. Helpful staff

Cons:

Family room on ground floor if we opened the curtains to let sunlight in everyone could look in our room. It could do with light blind/ curtain to stop viewing .

Pros:

Het personeel was heel erg vriendelijk en de locatie was perfect; het was maar 1 minuut lopen naar het strand. Kamer was netjes.

Cons:

De bedden waren hard en de badkamer stonk naar vocht. Foto's zijn wel heel erg verouderd er zijn nu 2 verdiepingen en de tuin is minder groen, meer zitjes nu.

Good hotel with even better location right by the beach
Pros:

Great location right next to the beach! The view must have been amazing before The Playa restaurant was built 😂.
The hotel has everything you want for a relaxing beach stay including a small garden out front to escape the crowds and tuk tuks bringing in the ever expanding Hiriketiya beach scene…
Reception staff were super helpful and even replaced a faulty bathroom light in 10 mins when we were expecting a wait until the next day (at least!). Very efficient.

Cons:

More space to hang clothes would have been useful.

Zeer goede locatie en verblijf met vriendelijk personeel
Pros:

Locatie was ongelofelijk, nog geen minuut stappen of je zat op het strand van Hiri! Zeer vriendelijk personeel en een grote, zeer mooie kamer. Enkele power cuts maar die horen er nu eenmaal bij! Water stroomde niet ontzettend hard maar hard genoeg. Aanrader!!

Cons:

Ligt niet perse aan het hotel maar is overal in Sri Lanka, dunne muren waardoor je buiten alles hoort.

Pros:

A localização 1000/10, excelente, e a parte exterior do hotel é incrível. Os funcionários muito simpáticos.

Cons:

Os quartos precisavam de remodelação para o preço que paguei eram super fracos, a mobília era mais antiga e muito usada, a cama era antiga de molas nada confortável, a fechadura da porta também não estava em boas condições.
