Need improvement.
Pros:

Environment, beach view

Cons:

Staff rude, would be better if more polite and kind. Definitely it's not about money, way of handling customer. Given a thin sheet, look like bed sheet/ thin linen as a blanket.

Pros:

We had two nights at the french garden. The rooms are practically at the beach. You walk out of the room and you stand at the beach. It is really nice there. The staff was also really friendly and helpful with activities. We loved it. All the best 🙏🏻 ayubovan

Pros:

Man ist nicht am Strand sondern direkt im Strand. Die Aussicht ist super. Man hat direkt mehrere Restaurants im der Umgebung und mehrere Tauchschulen direkt nebenan. Das Personal ist super nett und hilfsbereit. Ist stehts fĂĽr Fragen offen und hilft einem beim organisieren von AusflĂĽgen etc.
Wenn man in Trincomalee ist ist es aufjedenfall ein Muss.

Cons:

Das Bett war sehr klein also zu zweit wird es sehr kuschelig.
Preis etwas zu hoch finde ich aber der Ausblick und die Lage entschädigt dafür

Disappointing Stay – Poor Value for Money
Pros:

Location (right on the beach)

Cons:

The walls were paper-thin, so we heard loud parties from nearby places all night. The curtains barely blocked any light, making it hard to sleep, and the mattress was extremely uncomfortable with springs poking into our backs. When we mentioned it, staff said they’d be replaced next season (not helpful for us).

The room wasn’t cleaned at all during our three-day stay, so sand built up quickly. No fridge, and the air conditioning made a weird noise, making it impossible to relax. Additionally, the hotel’s neighbours were burning garbage right behind our room, so the smell filled the entire space. For what we paid ($90 per night), this was really not worth it. Finally, we were charged an extra 3% fee for paying by credit card, on top of an already overpriced stay. Would definitely not recommend.
