Riviera Resort
7.7 (34 reviews)

Riviera Resort ★★

📍 New Dutch Bar Road, Kallady

"When we arrived, we were immediately taken by the setting, by the lagoon, sorrounded by coconut trees and banana trees, birds chirping, pretty colonial style reception and bar area. There is also a brand new restaurant and function room building behond the bar. However, upon being shown to our chalet we were immediatly disappointed. It was old and tired, in need of some serious refurbishment. Doors and windows wouldn't shut properly, locks were stiff of not lined up so they couldn't be locked at all. Light switches 6ft up on the bathroom wall useless for my wife and children, no drinks making facility in the room. The beds were comfortable enough but thee not enough pillows, the ones we had were as flat as pancakes. The tired failities extended to the swimming pool, one end of it closed off and the rest had cracked and missing tiles, which my youngest cut her foot on. When i told the staff they didn't really seem to be bothered that she had injured herself. Unless they spend some time and effort renovating this place i would not visit again, shame, because the setting is perfect."

Amaya Beach Passikudah
9.2 (70 reviews)

Amaya Beach Passikudah ★★★★★

📍 Amaya Beach, Passekudah

"Very nice hotel, perfect for truly unwinding. Unfortunately, the beach isn't suitable for swimming as it's full of stones and coral. The food is very good and the rooms are huge. The service is pretty mediocre, though. Even though we were asked via WhatsApp the day before about our arrival time and bed preference, neither was taken into account. We had to wait an hour even though check-in was officially from 2 PM. Instead of a shared bed, we got two single beds. They really could have saved themselves the trouble of asking. Otherwise, everything else was great."

Amethyst Resort
8.1 (59 reviews)

Amethyst Resort ★★★★

📍 Coconut Board Road, Passekudah

"Excellent resort, very friendly staff, food is superb,.. Sasintha and Umesh at the Taporabine restaurant were exceptional. They made us welcome. Overwhelming hospitality. Lovely place. Must visit, great beach with natural beauty and beautiful birds. William at the reception was so welcoming. Home away from home"

Sunrise Pasikuda
9.4 (48 reviews)

Sunrise Pasikuda ★★★★★

📍 Coconut Development Board, Road, Passekudah

"I liked the hotel. The balcony is very comfortable and welcoming – a table, chairs, and a sofa. The sea is stunning! The beach is clean, the water is turquoise. Everything works in the room. It's clean! I'm a little tired, but so far so good. The food was à la carte. Delicious! I liked that the chef interacts with each guest. The menu is more European (onion soup (good!), pumpkin soup, pork with sweet potato puree), but Sri Lankan cuisine is always present in the main course! Shrimp was always on the menu. For Sri Lanka, the hotel is good. It has its own atmosphere and ambiance, which is what we come to this country for. This isn't a European 5-star hotel. Sri Lankan – yes! The restaurant staff is sometimes overly attentive. Since the hotel wasn't very busy, there was too much attention."

Karpaha Sands
9.8 (45 reviews)

Karpaha Sands ★★★★★

📍 Kimbula Thona Kalkudah Beach, KIRAN, Batticaloa

"We had an amazing stay at Karpaha Sands. Everything about this place is designed to relax you, and everything is made remarkably easy for you. The rooms are very comfortable, and the outdoor shower was incredible to use. Food throughout was sublime, and the experiences such as the cinema under the stars and henna were very well organised. The beach similarly is clean, and the sea calm and empty. Staff are incredibly friendly and very efficient. This was an wonderful place to stay and we would love to be back."

Riviera Resort ★★
"I went for lunch at this hotel and found the food to be quite good. The restaurant staff were very friendly and accommodating. After lunch, I took a walk around the hotel grounds, but I was disappointed by the behavior of the garden worker- called Sivakumar towards guests. Their approach seemed disrespectful and unprofessional. This experience makes me hesitant to revisit this place in the future.""

Amaya Beach Passikudah ★★★★★
"Excellent hotel with well-maintained grounds and delicious food. Everything looks beautifully designed. There's a warm, large swimming pool with varying depths. It's not usually crowded here, but on weekends, locals from Colombo come to celebrate weddings and have fun, so it can get noisy. The beach is close by. On the property, you can find small creatures like lizards and chipmunks, and there are wild monkeys near the border with the neighboring hotel. There are also koi carp swimming in the courtyard. I've written more extensively about the food in another review; I'm writing this one because I extended my reservation. You definitely won't go hungry, and it's a great place to relax. A big thank you to Andrew and Yimukshi from the front desk – they upgraded our room a bit and exchanged money for us! Everything was superb, I would definitely come back again."

Amethyst Resort ★★★★
"We arrived at Amethyst Resort, Pasikuda, earlier than the check-in time, but the front desk staff warmly welcomed us and arranged for us to enjoy the pool and beach until our room was ready – such a thoughtful start to our stay. A special mention goes to Samantha Weerasooriya, who looks after the restaurant. He made us feel right at home, showed the crocodiles to our kids (a big highlight for them!), and, when I had a bad headache one evening, went the extra mile to help me. Thank you to the entire team for the warm hospitality and to Samantha for his exceptional care. Highly recommended!"

Sunrise Pasikuda ★★★★★
"Excellent hotel. Stylish, clean, and well-equipped room. Everything you need is included: a refrigerator, tea, coffee, a kettle, and a hairdryer. Daily cleaning service, regular change of towels and bed linen. Special thanks to the guys who cleaned our room, Jerom and Kajanthiran, for their excellent service. The hotel has beautiful grounds with a gorgeous pool. There's a gym, a games area, and a bar. The beach is excellent and clean. It's cleaned daily. Comfortable sun loungers with soft mattresses and beach towels are always available. The staff on the beach and at the beach bar are friendly. Breakfast is extensive, offering a variety of dishes for every taste. National and European cuisine is available. A huge selection of pastries, including waffles made to order. Fresh seasonal fruit is always available. Dinner is also varied, with both basic dishes and daily specials. These include grilled seafood, pork, and deep-fried squid. Various national dishes, such as rotti or kottu, are also available. Special thanks to the waiters Sudesh and Kalum; they were very attentive and friendly. At dinner, water is included, with other drinks available from the menu (as in all other hotels). The hotel strives to add variety to each dinner by inviting different entertainers to create a cozy atmosphere. I definitely recommend this hotel for a relaxing stay. We'll definitely choose it again!"

"I think it’s the best hotel on the island. Amazing hospitality, the general manager is Italian, that is why the food was truly outstanding. I can’t more recommend this hotel. The atmosphere is gorgeous, you feel the untouchable nature with the fishermen on the beach, really unique experience."
