Kotikawatta Holidays from AU$1,496

Such a cool place. Very easy- nice pool, view and restaurant. I will be back

Good: The beach. The pool. The variety of dining options. The hotel though in several areas like the rooms, lifts etc could be cleaner / better maintained. The AC struggled to lower the room temp below 24C. The light in the cupboard where the safe is located would not switch off. Flushing the toilet resulted in it running for over 5 minutes. The grout on the shower enclosures could do with the occasional clean with bleach…. Not what I expected of a hotel with such high daily charges.

Nice hotel with great views. There is a roof top bar where you can have a drink and see the sunset. However one night was ruined by a noisy drunken party in the function room below our room, which went on to late in the night. It was the Staff annual gathering. Very loud and disturbed a number of guests who complained. Not handled well by management. They said it would finish soon, but the party kept going. One of the guests went in and turned the music off! Management offered little in compensation. Would not stay here again.

Overall the experience was great, the only feedback I would give is that one of the staff members tried to charge me 1000 rupees to play on the pool table for an hour, which I think wasn’t think was fair. The pool table is located right by the bar where people are already purchasing drinks, and to be charged to play pool I Personally don’t agree with. Other than that, the hotel and breakfast was great!
