- From US$138.96 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 6.9Pleasant - What previous guests thought, 546 reviewsThe Citrus Hotel in Sri Lanka is a place worth recommending. From the very first moment, you can feel that guests are a priority – the service is exceptionally friendly, courteous, and always smiling. The staff strives to meet guests' expectations with great commitment, creating an exceptionally welcoming atmosphere. Special recognition for their commitment goes to Manager Sudath, Malsha and Ishara, as well as the rest of the hotel staff. The food deserves special mention – it's diverse, fresh, and truly delicious. The buffet is well-balanced, offering both local and international dishes. The attention to quality and presentation is truly high, making every meal a pleasure. The hotel itself, although not the newest, is well-maintained, and it's clear that the owners and staff place great emphasis on ensuring guests feel comfortable. The rooms are clean and well-maintained, and the housekeeping service responds quickly to any needs. The hotel's common areas are tidy, and the pool and relaxation areas offer a peaceful atmosphere. The location is also a huge advantage – it's a great base for both exploring the area and spending a few days in complete relaxation. In summary, considering Sri Lanka's conditions and the standard of a 4-star hotel, the Citrus definitely stands out. Excellent cuisine, friendly and professional staff, excellent service, and attention to detail make it a truly relaxing and welcoming place. I wholeheartedly recommend this hotel to anyone planning a stay in Sri Lanka.Guest review byHR TUBE JAKUB STRZELCZYKPoland
- From US$356.01 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.1Very good - What previous guests thought, 82 reviewsThis hotel is a pure sweet spot: a combination beautiful sandy beach with nice ocean view through palm trees, excellent and well-trained staff, huge variety of very tasty food, comfortable rooms and excellent management with focus on sustainability. We booked a room with breakfast and intended to dine outside, however upon our arrival a hotel manager Mr Fernando warmly welcomed us and recommended to try dinner buffet... And we did - the best experience (both breakfast and dinner) comparing 5 hotels in Sri-Lanka we visited during our 3 weeks vacation. Additional compliment to the way the hotel is managed - exceptional level of service, safety, sustainability and attention to the guests needs. I can't put in a review all the things we're positevely surprised with this hotel - it far exceeded our expectations, definitely recommend to stay here!Guest review byNikolayRussia
- From US$55 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 7.4Good - What previous guests thought, 39 reviewsMy stay at Hotel Lavanga Hikkaduwa was a truly wonderful experience, thanks to both its tranquil and beautiful location and the consistently friendly and welcoming staff. Situated in a calm and picturesque setting in Hikkaduwa, the hotel offers a serene escape. Adding to this peaceful ambiance was the exceptional service provided by every member of the staff. From the reception to the restaurant and beyond, each team member I encountered was approachable, helpful, and genuinely dedicated to ensuring guests had a pleasant stay. Their positive attitude created a warm and inviting atmosphere throughout the hotel, making my time in Hikkaduwa even more enjoyable. The combination of the hotel's idyllic location and its commitment to excellent customer service truly made for a memorable stay.Guest review byMillerAustralia
- From US$108 per nightScored out of 10, guest rating 8.5Very good - What previous guests thought, 444 reviewsThe resort was beautiful right on the beach and close to all the good cafes and eateries. The best part was the staff they were so very cordial and helpful. I wanted to celebrate my baby's first birthday and they did an excellent job in the decoration and made us feel special. Special mention to Dinushi from the restaurant who was so loving and pampered my daughter a lot. All other staff Sujith, Namal, Nimsara, Malith were also extremely polite and helpful. Janani made a lovely cake for my daughter. Manager Melvin was wonderful too. Overall I recommend this resort to everyone.Guest review bypinkyIndia

The Galle Fort in Galle is my absolute favorite place — it has a vibe of its own. It’s completely safe at any time of the day, even for solo travelers. There’s so much history within the Fort walls to learn about and beautiful architecture to explore. The hosts at the restaurants and hotels inside the Fort are amazing, and the service is truly of international standard. The view of the Indian Ocean from the Ramparts is simply breathtaking. There are plenty of restaurants offering a wide variety of cuisines and dishes to try. Outside the Fort, I highly recommend visiting the beaches at Unawatuna, just a few kilometers from Galle City Centre. While you’re there, don’t miss the Japanese Peace Pagoda at Rumassala — you won’t regret it! Yaddehimulla Road in Unawatuna has everything from surf schools and restaurants to gem shops, gelato spots, international cuisines, and everything in between. For quick bites and essentials, SPAR Supermarket at Galle City Centre is your go-to place. You’ll find tasty rice and curry meals, ready-to-eat options, mosquito repellent, basic medical supplies, snacks, good-quality fruits, and other everyday necessities.Guest review byRebecca ABSri Lanka - 2.0

we stayed here at the end of September so the sea was not as calm as it would normally be (or so the locals told us) but you could still go into the sea but maybe not for too long. We enjoyed ambling around the town and going into Gaul more. We used the pool at our hotel more than the beach here.Guest review byAnonymous - 8.0
We did not venture into Bentota.
We did not venture into Bentota. We are expats living in Colombo so no need to explore the city. The hotel was at the right spot for a 100% relaxing weekend away with no distractions. The ocean is not that swimmable as the sea was very rough and looked dangerous. The pool was a welcome alternative. We drove to Galle for the Saturday to watch the game between Springboks and Kiwis. That was not too far, one hour away and a very scenic route. The hotel was also fully booked so must be popular.Guest review byArnoSri Lanka - 10

Talpe is a beautiful and quiet coastal village, perfect for a peaceful getaway. The beaches are clean and less crowded, with stunning sunsets and even the chance to see sea turtles. It’s a great spot to relax, with a mix of charming villas, friendly locals, and easy access to nearby attractions like Unawatuna and Galle. Ideal for those looking to unwind away from the tourist rush.Guest review byAnonymous - 10

Great beach, we felt like Robinson Crusoe on the beach, almost just the 2 of us. Visiting Mahdu Lake at 6 a.m. watching the sun goes up. A natural paradise with a lot of birds and other animals. Listening to their different noises. Dining at the Mangrove Cave Restaurant we enjoyed freshest seafood. It was just very tasty.Guest review bySiegi PlatzerItaly - 10
My favourite place was the turtle hatchery.
My favourite place was the turtle hatchery. Most meals were eaten at the Hotel. Very easy to get around. There is a tour agency opposite the hotel entrance, it cant get any better than that. It is easy to take tuk tuk or van taxis. Superior beach front view. Beautiful gardens and swimming pool. Well done to the management and staff for this top class facility. Local fishermen were easy to approach and social chat with.Guest review byHendrikUnited Arab Emirates
