Not too far from airport and a good place to refresh before onward travel
Pros:

It was on beach and nice area to sit by pool and bar.

Cons:

It is a bit tired. We upgraded to an early room. Fridge did not work and shower leaked everywhere. It had a comfortable bed which we needed after an early arrival. . It was more or less as we had expected and did what it said on tin

Pros:

המיקום מעולה

Cons:

החדרים לא נראים אותו הדבר כמו בתמונות, לא הייתי נותנת לבית מלון להיות אפילו בית מלון 3 כוכבים.
ארוחת בוקר בינונית מאוד, כמט ולא נגענו באוכל, הוא ממש לא הזמין.

Terrible stay

Cons:

One of the Worst Hotel Experiences- Avoid

I rarely write negative reviews, but my stay at Camelot Beach Hotel left me with no choice. From the moment we checked in, things went wrong. We were shifted across three different rooms because of water leaking from the roof — completely unacceptable for a hotel charging guests for a comfortable stay.

The hygiene situation was alarming. Street dogs were wandering freely inside the hotel, and I watched them drinking water directly from the pool — the same pool where my children and I had been swimming. As a parent, this was deeply disturbing and a serious health concern.

The reception staff were painfully slow and unhelpful every time we approached them. The worst part: I lost one of my bags during the room shuffle, and when I reported it, they simply said they didn't know anything about it. I asked them to check the CCTV footage, and even that request went nowhere.

Overall, this was one of the worst experiences I've ever had at a hotel. Between the leaking rooms, the unsanitary pool situation, the unresponsive staff, and a lost bag that no one would help me trace, I cannot recommend this place to anyone — especially families with children.

Goed verblijf gehad!
Pros:

Wij hebben hier maar 1 nacht geslapen. Kamer oké, bed goed. Restaurant goed, eten goed, zeer uitgebreid ontbijtbuffet. Mooie zwembaden, ligbedden met fatsoenlijke kussens. Mooi zicht op zee vanaf je bedje. Drankje mogelijk bij het zwembad. Ontzettend vriendelijk en behulpzaam personeel.
Wij hadden een behoorlijke vertraging. We konden terug komen bij het hotel, gebruik maken van alles zonder extra kosten! Geweldig. Mooi buitengebied rondom het zwembad.

Cons:

Het is idd op sommige punten wat verouderd maar dat is geen uitzondering in SriLanka. Zeker de buitenkant (zicht vanaf zwembad) zou een flinke opknapbeurt kunnen gebruiken. Afbreuk van de rest wat er wel gewoon oké uit ziet. Strand is wat minder mooi. Veel troep…. Maar prachtige zwembaden maken dat goed.

Struttura sporca
Pros:

Nulla assolutamente nulla

Cons:

Il personale totalmente menefreghista ad ogni richiesta .
Ho chiesto un cambiamento sulla prenotazione non mi hanno risposto da booking , da WhatsApp e al telefono.
Totalmente indifferenti al nostro arrivo e alla nostra partenza .
Camere non come nelle foto che sono state modificate
Pavimento sporco
Condizionatore perde acqua
Alla partenza alle 6 di mattina non si sono nemmeno preoccupati di prepararci un box colazione, dato che era compresa nel prezzo.
Ah chicca la rete nei balconi .
