Scenery River Star Hotel

Very clean and modern well equipped rooms

Breakfast was not ready at the requestednj time

We had a lovely stay here. It is a really quiet spot away from the main town next to the lagoon. About at 10min walk along a quiet road to get to the beach. Breakfast each morning was delicious and different. Amazing omelette! We had a family room that was clean and the air con worked well - if a little noisy. We hired kayaks for the 4 of us for 4000rupees (about £12) which we thought was a very fair price and had a lovely paddle around the lagoon.

Very good breakfast

Nothing

Our stay at this hotel was simply magical! The hotel is nestled right next to a breathtakingly beautiful and serene lake, offering peaceful views and a truly relaxing atmosphere. Waking up to the gentle sound of nature and the shimmering water was an unforgettable experience. The breakfast was absolutely outstanding—freshly baked pastries, a variety of tropical fruits, rich and aromatic coffee, and a selection of delicious local specialties. Every morning felt like a luxurious feast, setting the perfect tone for the day. One of the best parts of this hotel was its location. A short, pleasant walk led us straight to the ocean’s pristine beach. The golden sand was incredibly soft and clean, and the crystal-clear water made it an ideal spot for relaxation and swimming. The combination of the peaceful lake and the stunning ocean beach made this a dream destination.

This was our 16th place to stay in Sri Lanka. It has to be the most peaceful, relaxing and chilled out of all. Lovely clean, spacious room, with a small seating area which we loved the views onto the lake. The staff were exceptional! We also hired their kayaks and went for a trip on the serene lake. We’ll remember this place and would definitely return.

Nice spot by the lake, good wifi and good breakfast.

I initially planned to stay for just one or two nights, but I ended up staying for over eight days! This place is perfect for relaxation—peaceful, quiet, and surrounded by nature. I highly recommend taking the kayaks out and watching the sunrise from the middle of the lagoon—an unforgettable experience. On top of that, the host was incredibly kind and attentive, taking care of every little detail. The breakfasts were delicious and made the stay even more enjoyable. My room was spotless and super comfortable—I’d love to come back. Definitely recommend!
