Hotel Coconut Bay

Our stay at Hotel Coconut bay was great. We spent our last three nights in Sri Lanka here and it was nice; the room was clean and modern, the reception was nice and the food was lovely. The beach that comes with it is incredible, it was pretty much a private beach to yourself which was very relaxing. The beds were fine, they had cushions to go onto the beds but needed to double or triple them up as they are thin but did the trick. The breakfast was great, with a western choice or Sri Lankan choice but the Sri Lankan omelette was amazing. Comes with fresh fruits, coffee, toast and a freshly made smoothie. Lunch and dinner were ok, it’s the same menu for both meals but some of the options on the menu were not available which would have been nice to know before hand. However the service is good. Nihal was probably one of the most hard working person I have met. He was there to greet us and was there all day for us. He works from 6am till way past you go to bed and this did not affect his service in anyway. Honestly, anything you’re needing he’ll sort it out. The owner is a lovely guy who always had a smile on his face when seeing you. He has really put money into the place to make it look great, especially at night when all the colourful lights come on. His Labrador is very very sweet too. The sea is harsh, there is a strong current right in front of the hotel but walk right to the rocks and you are able to swim there but it is still strong so please be careful. The owner has put a pool in but it was in the final stages of completion when I was there so we weren’t able to use it. The room was clean and comfortable and the bathroom was spotless. The shower looks very fancy which was nice but the water pressure was very low compared to the other home stays we stayed at, but it was able to get quite hot which was amazing. There is a supermarket 10 minute walk away and was amazing to go in. There is a pharmacy, liquor store and bakery there which very tasty.

Location is great, right next to the beautiful beach. View from the balcony is amazing. Room is clean and has everything you need. Nilantha is very friendly and will do anything to make you feel like at home. It was a wonderful experience!

The daytrip with the host was very nice and we could explore a lot. Food in the hotel was delicious. We really enjoyed the boat trip, the herbal garden, the turtle rescue station and the buddhist temple.

The beach could be more family friendly.

Location is fantastic , and the room is very clean and comport . dinner is very delicious and served on time

The room was excellent

Beautiful location. Friendly staff and great food. We booked a large room for 3 people. Very large room with 1 king size and 1 large bed with a balcony view. Thank you, Nilantha, for great hospitality and welcoming. Smith for great food. Nihal for the service. And nalin viraj for the entertainment :)

The owner and staff were excellent, polite and efficient Location to beach is great. The owner is currently carrying out some modifications ie adding small pool.

No shower gel and although there was a kettle and cups there was no coffee etc. not a big deal for me but could be for some. Despite this would return

Food was excellent

My stay was too short
