Pros:

Extrem gelungene Hotelanlage mit einem Haupthaus, das architektonisch Natur und ökologisches Wohnen verbindet. Es werden sehr viele lokale Materialien verwendet, gleichzeitig ist die Anlage sehr modern und zeitgemäß gestaltet.

Das einzige Hotel auf unserer Reise, das wirklich internationale Standards erfüllt. Sehr zu empfehlen, allerdings auch das teuerste Hotel auf unserer gesamten Tour.

Wie in Sri Lanka üblich, sind die Menschen sehr freundlich und zuvorkommend. Besonders schön ist der kleine, private Strand, der direkt vor der Anlage liegt und zum Hotel gehört.

Cons:

Zum regulären Preis zu teuer für SriLanka.
Mit der Lage an Nilaveli Beach etwas abseits, dafür allerdings sehr ruhig gelegen. Wer etwas mehr Backpacker-Flair haben möchte, sollte zum Uppaveli Beach fahren
Bei Buchung keine Stornierungsmöglichkeit (sonst Standart auf booking

Dream hotel. Disappointment approach to gluten free food requirements.
Pros:

C Beyond Nilaveli is a beautiful hotel in a stunning setting, and our room was honestly dreamy. We stayed in one of the rooms away from the main building, with direct beach access and our own plunge pool. It was chic, spacious and spotlessly clean, and the children had so much fun in the pool. Having the beach almost entirely to ourselves was also incredible.
The staff were attentive and friendly, and one evening we had dinner with the tables set up on the beach, which was such a beautiful experience. Unfortunately, the food itself was disappointing, which was particularly frustrating given the setting.
As someone with coeliac disease, I had emailed ahead and had several conversations with staff about my dietary requirements. Sadly, I never felt that my requirements were fully understood or that I could eat with confidence. At breakfast, there was a huge selection and the children absolutely loved the French toast, but there seemed to be very little thought about what was genuinely safe for me. I often had to explain things again, and it felt as though what I had discussed the previous day wasn't remembered. This was very different from the level of care and understanding we experienced at other hotels during our two weeks in Sri Lanka, where staff went above and beyond to make sure I could eat safely.
We also had a couple of small issues with hot water and shower pressure during our stay, although these didn't detract too much from the room itself.
Overall, C Beyond is a gorgeous place with a wonderful beach, beautiful rooms and a very relaxed atmosphere. For us, the location and accommodation were fantastic and the children loved it. However, the food and lack of confidence around managing coeliac requirements meant that it didn't quite live up to the experience we had hoped for.

Pros:

Le C Beyond Nilaveli est, sans aucun doute, le meilleur hôtel dans lequel nous ayons séjourné de toute notre vie… et pourtant, nous avons énormément voyagé !

Nous avons eu la chance de séjourner dans une chambre avec vue sur la mer et piscine privée : un véritable rêve. Se réveiller face à l'océan est une expérience inoubliable.

Le personnel est tout simplement exceptionnel, d'une gentillesse, d'une disponibilité et d'une attention de chaque instant. Nous nous sommes sentis accueillis comme des invités privilégiés.

Le bâtiment principal offre une vue spectaculaire sur la lagune d'un côté et sur la mer de l'autre. Le dîner, servi les pieds dans le sable à la lueur des flambeaux, est un moment magique.

La plage est magnifique, presque déserte, avec de nombreux transats toujours disponibles, ce qui permet de profiter pleinement du calme et de la beauté des lieux. Le service directement sur la plage est irréprochable.

Les petits-déjeuners sont copieux, variés et mettent à l'honneur de délicieuses spécialités sri-lankaises.

Tout était absolument parfait. Un immense merci à toute l'équipe pour ce séjour inoubliable. Nous reviendrons sans hésiter et recommandons cet établissement les yeux fermés !

Pros:

L'hôtel est situé dans un site incroyable. Il y a un petit sentier joliment amènagé qui mène à une belle piscine et à la plage où nous attendent quelques transats. C'est calme et très nature. Le petit déjeuner est incroyable et la chambre est jolie et agréable

Cons:

En comparaison de nos autres hotel Sri Lankais, celui ci m'a paru un peu cher. Cependant, pas assez que pour nous faire regretter d'avoir mis ce prix.

Perfect, quiet location!
Pros:

Stunning location by the beach. Very quiet and chilled.
Special mention to Deva, who was very friendly and helpful during our stay!

Cons:

I thought the evening meals were slightly overpriced.
Need to take tuktuk to find other places to eat, as only one relatively local one to walk to!

Personal excelente, pero el hotel no está a la altura de su precio.
Pros:

El personal fue excepcionalmente amable y atento durante toda nuestra estancia. La habitación con piscina privada era amplia y cómoda, y la ubicación frente al mar es ideal para descansar.

Cons:

Por el precio que pagamos esperábamos un nivel mucho más alto. Las instalaciones necesitan más mantenimiento, la playa frente al hotel estaba bastante sucia y, aunque nos alojamos en la que se supone es la mejor habitación del hotel, la piscina privada apenas ofrece intimidad, ya que es muy visible desde las zonas comunes y otras habitaciones.

Peaceful remote beach location with wonderful staff and great breakfast.
Pros:

Wonderful staff, Eric the manager was fantastic and so friendly, he accommodated everything we asked. Our air con broke and someone came straight away to look. All transport could be arranged by the manager. A lovely place right on the beach. Excellent breakfast!

Cons:

The place is not near anything (like a different restaurant or place to shop or buy souvenir etc) if you want to take a walk. You have to drive or tuk tuk to go to nearby town or anywhere.

Beautiful property in an idyllic location!
Pros:

Beautiful rooms in an idyllic location right on Nilaveli beach. Property is wonderfully decorated, comfortable common areas for dinner, lounging and swimming in the pool. The staff are fabulous, very nice and nothing is ever too much trouble - we already miss them! The food served onsite is delicious and very generous portions!

Nous avons adoré notre séjour, la chambre était super belle et confortable. La vue est magnifique. Le personnel est top. Ils nous ont aidé à réserver nos activités, réserver un scooter et bénéficier d’un service de laundry avec retour des vêtements le jour même.
L’hôtel est propre, bien entretenu. Je recommande vivement

Great location, comfy bed and good food.
Pros:

We loved our stay at C Beyond. We searched many reviews and decided to stay here. We were very happy.
The staff could not do more for you. The food was delicious and as vegan guests, Eric the manager arranged soya chunks for our dinner. The hotel is in a great location and our trip to Pidgeon island was from the beach just infront.

Eric is kind to the local animals and tried to neuter the strays if he can. Two dogs on the beach front are so friendly and love a cuddle.

We enjoyed our stay, the rooms were large, comfortable and great views.
The breakfast was large and tasty!
We got washing done here and was only £12 for two washes. Great value and smelt lovely.

Cons:

All good.
