Poddala Hotels

"My stay at this hostel was fantastic! Highly recommend. I booked a private room and it was perfectly spotless, felt quite clean, was well designed and felt like a boutique hotel. The front desk service was great, and easy to ask questions regarding train times through WhatsApp, and they even accommodated check out an hour earlier so I could do a morning surf lesson and wash up without rushing. The location was also perfect, and within easy walking distance of the beach, beach clubs, and good...

"Veldig bra beliggenhet like ved stranden. Hyggelig vertskap og fin leilighet. "

"Our four-night stay at The Merenchi by Alexander-Kane was nothing short of exceptional. Located right next to the Radisson Blu at Gintota, the property enjoys a prime yet peaceful setting, just a short walk from a clean, quiet beach that feels almost private due to the lack of crowds. We were privileged to be the very first guests and stayed in the Terrace Suite, which offered exclusive access to a private terrace with dual views—one overlooking a serene garden and the other opening toward the...

"Ocean view rooms are worth the price, its in an exceptional location. Rooms are sparkling clean, staff are extremely friendly and helpful. Buffet breakfast is amazing and facilities are well looked after. If i return i wouldnt consider staying anywhere else! Absolutely loved my stay here. "

"I had a wonderful stay at Royal Beach Hotel, Hikkaduwa. The hotel is affordable and perfectly located right by the beach, offering stunning ocean views and a calm, relaxing atmosphere. The rooms were clean, comfortable, and well maintained, making the stay pleasant and restful. The staff were extremely friendly, welcoming, and always ready to help. And the food was delicious with a good variety of options, and enjoying meals with a sea view was a highlight. I would highly recommend it and would...

"Outstanding. Exceptional."

"We had great time! Best ocean view, nice and generous staff, good breakfast. We definitely will come back!"

"We enjoyed quietness of the location even though it is close to get to Hikkadua. Love to sit at the pool and seeing all the rice paddies. The owner tried very hard to make us feel comfortable and did a great job! "

"We loved our stay at The Sandhya. From the wonderful breakfasts, the perfect location on the beach and the cozy feeling of the lounge areas and rooms. Don’t miss out on surfing either."

"What a fantastic experience, the staff where wonderful extra clean entertainment and food was delicious definitely going again"

"Niyagama House is the perfect spot for a relaxing holiday. We enjoyed meditation as well as yoga sessions and the food was fantastic!"

"Room was excellent, food & drinks were great, staff exceptionally friendly and curteous. Hotel is a little remote, but that's the appeal - 20 min walk into the local town / beach, and 10 minute Tuktuk back up the hill. (Usually LKR 500 - £1.25 or thereabouts)"

"Fantastic paradise right on the beach. Close enough to all the tourism and excitement, but far enough away to have true peace and tranquility. The staff was absolutely phenomenal and the reason I will absolutely come back. "

"We stayed for 10 days and this hotel was perfect. Two pools, never too crowded, well maintained. Public areas and rooms very clean. Room had a great balcony, lovely sunset view. The staff are brilliant, so welcoming, helpful, always cheerful. We only used the restaurant twice and the food was good both times. It’s 10 min walk down to Unawatuna beach, 15 min tuk tuk to Jungle beach. Unawatuna has lots of food options and shops but there are also some great places to eat within a few mins walk of...

"Great staff and hospitality by all. Great location for beach swims and runs. Saw mother turtle lay her eggs one evening...what more can I say!"

"The room was very clean and the staff were all very helpful. The hotel is luxurious. Two beautiful pools and very good food. The views are stunning over the ocean. The beach is not suitable for swimming due to heavy surf and a strong side current but Talpe beach a 1.5k walk or tuk-tuk away has a safe beach behind a reef. "
