Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at Lankavatara Ocean Retreat. The hotel is very clean, well-maintained, and offers a stunning view of the ocean. The swimming pool is absolutely beautiful and perfect for relaxing while enjoying the peaceful surroundings.

Our room was spotless, comfortable, and very well cared for. What made our stay even more special was the kindness of the staff. Everyone was friendly, attentive, and always ready to help, making sure we had everything we needed throughout our stay.

Thank you to the entire team for their warm hospitality. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay by the ocean.

Pros:

Es war ein wunderschöner Aufenthalt. Wir waren leider nur 1 Nacht da es das Ende unserer Rundreise war, aber eins ist ganz sicher wir kommen wieder & dann wird es definitiv nicht nur 1 Nacht bleiben.
Wir haben einfach ein kostenloses Upgrade auf das schönste Zimmer im Hotel bekommen, es war ein absoluter Traum. Wunderschöne Anlage, super freundliches Personal, alle total lieb und herzlich. Traumstrand direkt vor der Nase und man ist komplett für sich. Das Essen war richtig gut und lecker, tolle Auswahl beim Frühstück - sowie auch auf der Mittag & Abendkarte. Wir haben bei einer Yogastunde mitgemacht, die im
Hotel für die Gäste kostenfrei statt findet, war auch richtig schön!

Ich schreibe selten Bewertungen , aber hier musste es definitiv sein. Absolute Empfehlung- vielen Dank für den wunderschönen Aufenthalt und liebe Grüße aus Deutschland 🇩🇪

Thank you
Pros:

The accommodation, the staff, and the food were perfect.
If I come back to Sri Lanka, I will definitely stay at this hotel again.

The service is amazing — they even served a drink to our driver, which meant a lot to us. Not every place would do that, and it’s the little details like this that make all the difference. What I especially appreciated was that everyone was treated with the same kindness and respect, and that’s really important 🙂

Cons:

Nothing

Pros:

We had a wonderful stay at this hotel! The room was extremely clean and very comfortable. The staff was kind, welcoming, and always ready to help. We were also happy that we had the chance to join yoga classes during our stay, which made the experience even more relaxing.

The food was absolutely delicious, with a great variety of dishes every day. Another huge advantage is the close access to the ocean and the beautiful beach just a short walk away. We truly enjoyed our time here and would definitely recommend this hotel!
