The Lucky Elephant

The pool and room itself where great and clean

Wifi kept dropping out. You can o my use one set of towels at the pool each day without extra charge

beach front hotel- absolutely stunning. Staff were really nice- hats off to Tyrone who made me feel very welcome. Gorgeous hotel, great location and good food!

Lovely hotel, big pool and right on the beach - our room was perfect, very clean and with a big balcony that had a lovely sea view. Staff were all so friendly and attentive. We had a full body massage at the hotel spa which was amazing. Food at the restaurant was also very good - highly recommend this hotel!

We loved it all - just a note for others that you may have to walk along the beach a few minutes if you want to swim, as the sea outside the property was too strong to swim in, but we liked this as it meant the section of beach that the hotel was on was quiet and peaceful.

Hotelstaff was very friendly and it was clean.

Not as the pictures. Quite run down, a lot of stuff needs be upgraded (chairs, windows,…)Breakfast was not that good. Hotel was not bad at all, but too expensive for what you get.

Stunning room, with wrap around views of the sea, palm trees and such a comfortable bed. I could have stayed in my room or on the balcony for most of the day! We also had a wonderful house keeping team, who couldn’t do enough - there was daily yoga, aqua aerobics and Pilates - breakfast and dining area was a let down - not nearly as stylish as the rooms

Hotel gave us a free upgrade. Location was lovely. Staff are friendly.

Wifi is not reliable. I used my data in the end.

We really enjoyed our stay at the Lucky Elephant. Staff were always helpful, breakfast was acceptable and the pool was super relaxing and clean. A special thank you to the house keeping staff. They did a clean and tidy up like no other. Excellent work!

Coffees were average

We had a fantastic stay at The Lucky Elephant Hotel! The room was spotless, and the entire hotel was well-maintained, making it feel fresh and comfortable. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the restaurant manager was especially kind—always giving extra attention to guests and ensuring our stay was perfect. The hotel is a quiet boutique retreat, ideal for relaxation. While the sea isn’t swimmable due to waves, the clean, uncrowded beach is perfect for walks and stunning sunsets. Plus, it’s just a short drive from the lively part of Hikkaduwa. Highly recommend for a peaceful getaway!

Breakfast could have more options, you won’t be hungry, however more variety would be perfect
