Guest Reviews

• Jack (9/5): Excellent Location and Relaxing Stay - We had a wonderful stay at this eco resort. The location is excellent, with easy access to transportation—just a few steps away from the bus stop. The room was clean and spacious, and the bathroom was very large and comfortable. The breakfast was excellent and offered a great start to the day. The staff were extremely kind, helpful, and hardworking, always ready to assist with a smile. The resort is surrounded by beautiful coconut groves, creating a peaceful and relaxing atmosphere with refreshing lagoon breezes. The only thing we missed was having a swimming pool, but the stunning Nilaveli Beach is just a short walk away, which more than makes up for it. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a relaxing and peaceful getaway!
• Emma jansen (10/5): - ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a wonderful stay at , Nilaveli. The room and bathroom were clean and comfortable, and Nilaveli Beach is just a short walk away. The staff were very friendly, helpful, and caring. They arranged affordable tuk-tuk transport and took care of everything we needed. The peaceful eco-friendly environment made our stay relaxing and enjoyable. Highly recommended for couples visiting Nilaveli and Pigeon Island. 🌴😊 Nothing
• Anja (7/5): Schöne Bungalows nahe zu vielen Restaurants - Sehr schöne Bungalows auf dem Gelände. Das Personal ist freundlich und hilfsbereit. Die Bungalows sind schön hergerichtet und scheinen recht neu. Großes Bad. Frühstück als Buffet, geschmacklich gut. Das Frühstück war im Vergleich zu Hotels bisher nicht so gut. Es gab ein Buffet, jedoch kein Brot oder Kaffee, Butter etc. Wir mussten nach Brot und Kaffee fragen, bekamen es dann aber auch. Am Obst hingen weiße kleine Fetzen, was sehr unappetitlich war. Geschmacklich zwar gutes Frühstück, hatten aber den Eindruck das Essen "erfragen" oder einfordern zu müssen. Bei der Zahlung recht unorganisiert, musste dann erst Wechselgeld organisieren. Klimaanlage sehr kompliziert einzustellen.

• Marco (7/5): Perfecte ligging - De ligging is prima. Restaurants, bakkertje, strand etc. Op loop afstand. Bedden zijn prima. Huisjes zijn wat gedateerd. Ontbijt valt wat tegen in vergelijking tot ontbijt wat we op andere plekken kregen. Airco in huisje is zo geplaatst dat deze vol op je bed blaast, maar met een tapeje opgelost. Verblijf was verder prima

• Nora (10/5): - My Stay at Cocolagoon Eco Resort I had a wonderful stay at Cocolagoon Eco Resort! The resort is absolutely beautiful, with charming cottages that are clean and spacious, especially the bathrooms. The garden is lush and peaceful, and the breeze from the lagoon—especially at night—is simply incredible. It creates such a relaxing and positive vibe. The place is very quiet, perfect for a peaceful getaway. Breakfast was excellent, offering both delicious Sri Lankan and Western options. The staff are amazing—super friendly and always ready to help with anything you need. They truly made the stay even more enjoyable. Nilaveli Beach is just a short walk away, and it's a stunning beach. Highly recommend this place for anyone looking to relax in nature with great hospitality! Nothing
• Marta (10/5): - Il giardino è stupendo! Le stanze sono carine e hanno quello che serve! Nulla ;)
• agoyan (9/5): -
• Emilie (4/5): - Leur lecteur de carte bleue est visiblement en panne depuis plusieurs jours... Il nous a été indiqué l'emplacement d'un distributeur, sans nous proposer de nous emmener. Le resort n'a pas de restaurant, et le petit déjeuner n'est pas top. La climatisation de notre logement ne fonctionnait pas correctement. Le rapport qualité/prix est mauvais.
• Jose (9/5): -
• Έψιλον (3/5): Καθόλου καλή αντιστοιχία τιμής και προσφοράς - Η τοποθεσία ήτανε αρκετά καλή όχι μακρυά από την παραλία, σαν μέρος ήτανε όμορφο. Ο ένας κ μοναδικός υπάλληλος που ήτανε εκεί ήτανε αγενέστατος, καθόλου εξυπηρετικός, δν μας βοήθησε σε τίποτα το μόνο που μας ρώταγε κάθε λίγο κ λιγάκι ήτανε πότε θα πληρώσουμε κ τι ώρα είναι το check out, μας είχε μες στο δωμάτιο για δύο άτομα 5 νύχτες διαμονή ένα μικρό μπουκαλάκι αφρόλουτρο κ ένα σαμπουάν κ όταν του ζητήσαμε δεύτερο ξυνίσε καθώς και δν μπήκε ούτε μια από τις μέρες να μας καθαρίσει να αλλάξει πετσέτες κ σεντόνια.
• Karolien (7/5): Goed, maar kan zeker verbeterd worden - Leuke huisjes met terras. Goede locatie, aan de hoofdbaan (maar die hoor je niet) en toegangsweg naar het strand. Prijs kwaliteit verhouding kan beter, zeker als je vergelijkt met de andere plaatsen waar we tijdens onze reis verbleven. De kamer en badkamer zijn redelijk basic. Er zaten mieren in de kamer en in bed. Ook het ontbijt was het minste van de hele reis.
• Gwen (7/5): - Accommodatie is prima, maar wel verouderd. Naar het strand kan je in 15 minuutjes lopen. In de avond is het erg warm als je de airconditioning niet aan wilt laten.
• marine (10/5): - Un merveilleux séjour dans des cottages confortables Nous avons grandement apprécié notre séjour dans ces cottages confortables. Chaque cottage, semblable à une résidence privée, offrait un niveau de confort et d'intimité remarquable. Les chambres et salles de bain étaient impeccables, et les jardins, superbement entretenus avec des fleurs colorées et des arbres à épices, contribuaient à une atmosphère paisible et relaxante.  Le personnel s'est distingué par son amabilité, son attention et sa disponibilité. Ils ont notamment facilité l'organisation de nos déplacements en tuk-tuk à des tarifs avantageux.  Le petit-déjeuner était excellent, et la proximité de la plage représentait un atout indéniable. La plongée avec tuba à Pigeon Island a constitué un moment fort de notre voyage, une expérience mémorable.  Le lagon du jardin, particulièrement attrayant vers 18h, offrait un cadre idéal pour admirer le coucher de soleil et se détendre en fin de journée.
• Joachim (3/5): Got baited by the nice looking bongalos - Garden looks nice The breakfast, the service, the noise, the distance to the beach and the price.
• Stephane (5/5): Sans commentaire - Hotel à la propreté à revoir.
• Anselm (8/5): - Sehr freundliches Personal und das beste w LAN.... Strand etwas entfernt aber schön.
• sakai (1/5): Déprimant - Le personnel était gentil. Manifestement les photos ont été prises à l’avantage du lieu et il y à bien longtemps maintenant. Il s’agit de bungalows très sommaires, en mauvais état, dans un « resort » vétuste et décrépi. L’eau qui sort du robinet et celle qui stagne dans les toilettes est marron. Ce n’est pas propre. Le cadre (le jardin) présenté comme idyllique et luxuriant sur les photos est en réalité triste et déprimant. Le lieu tombe en ruines, tout est en mauvais état, il y a des sachets plastiques dans les arbres, des détritus et bouteilles plastiques au sol. 78$ par nuit est une somme conséquente pour le coin. Un tel tarif n’est absolument pas justifié. Nous avons séjourné dans des endroits au Sri Lanka infiniment mieux pour la moitié du prix. Le coin n’est pas joli non plus. Nous n’avons rien aimé à Nilaveli. Nous aurions aimé voir des photos fidèles à la réalité avant de venir. Nous sommes partis dès le lendemain matin de notre arrivée.
• Eva-Maria (7/5): -
• Marga (8/5): Estancia agradable - El trato del personal. Te ayudan en todo lo que necesites. Un 10
• Sara (9/5): -
• Vladislav (10/5): -
• Sandra Rinner (7/5): - Die Zimmer sind einfach aber sauber Das Frühstück war ok. Nichts besonderes
• Ladislava (9/5): Wonderful, peaceful place close to the beach - Cocoa Lagoon is a charming, peaceful place about a 10-minute walk from Nilaveli Beach. The bungalows are clean, simply furnished, and surrounded by beautiful tropical plants – perfect for nature lovers and relaxed travelers. The hosts were incredibly helpful – they arranged tuk-tuks, helped us find snorkeling gear, and even prepared gluten-free breakfasts for our daughter every morning. The area is quiet but close to cafes, local restaurants, and small shops. If you’re looking for a calm, authentic Sri Lankan stay surrounded by nature and cared for by warm-hearted people, this place is a lovely choice. It’s not about luxury, but about atmosphere, simplicity and kindness – which we appreciated very much.
• Ryan (7/5): No wifi in room - Plenty of other nice stays in the area representing far better value - Very nice room, but for the price paid I'd expect wifi in the room. Breakfast all very tasty. The wifi router is only in the reception. I would also expect complimentary bottled water at this price point.
• Martin (9/5): - Die Unterkunft ist in einzelne kleine Häuschen aufgeteilt, welche von Cocosnusspalmen und kleinen Grünflächen umgeben sind. Die Straße war in der Unterkunft selbst nicht zu hören. Unser kleines Häuschen hatte seine eigene kleine Terasse mit Sitzgelegnheiten. Die Ausstattung im Inneren war gut: bequemes Bett, kleiner Schrank/Regal mit Ablagemöglichkeit, Klimaanlage und einem Kleiderständer. Es war insgesamt sehr sauber. Das Personal war sehr freundlich und hilfsbereit. Bei Regen ist das Brasseln der Tropfen durch das Wellblechdach vermehrt zu hören.
• Tom (10/5): Petit jardin bucolique - Nous avons été très satisfaits de notre séjour ici. Le jardin est absolument magnifique, parfaitement intégré dans une cocoteraie, les bungalows, sont parfaitement disposés, chaque arbre fruitier, chaque plante, chaque palmier est à sa place. Le jardin a été fait avec énormément de goût! Vous êtes même invités à déguster quelques fruits directement sur l’arbre (en fonction de la saison). Nous avons donc découvert le Jamalac, délicieuse petite pomme acidulée… et cerise sur le gâteau, ils vont bientôt construire une piscine, qui, je n’en doute pas s’intégrera parfaitement dans le paysage. Les bungalows sont spacieux, confortable et modernes. Enfin, le service est excellent, Kishor a été d’une très grande aide, toujours disponible, toujours serviable et d’une grande gentillesse. Lorsque nous avons rencontrés un petit problème, il a été très réactif pour nous trouver une solution. Nous avons été impressionnés par toutes les tâches qu’il effectuait (accueil, petit dej, jardinage, entretien…),ce, de très tôt le matin à tard le soir! Nous le remercions sincèrement pour tout et reviendrons sans hésiter dans cet établissement. RAS
• Lauréna (8/5): Agréable - Le jardin est très bien entretenu, c’est agréable de le traverser pour rejoindre notre chalet. Le logement était spacieux ! Moustiquaire manquante et bruits sur le toit en taule pouvant être dérangeants.
• Wendy (7/5): Goede foto's doen een hoop - Op eerste gezicht een Prima huisje op 15 min lopen van het strand. Enkele restaurantjes in de buurt, maar niet veel. De werknemer was behulpzaam als we hem nodig hadden. Bed ligt prima en mooie badkamer. Ontbijt was prima. Bij het inchecken leek het alsof we niet verwacht werden. We moesten gelijk betalen, maar er was geen wisselgeld. We moesten erop vertrouwen dat we dit later nog terugkregen. Het bed ligt prima, maar na 1 nacht flink verkouden omdat de airco op je gericht staat (zonder airco is het niet te doen qua hitte). We hebben zelf de kamer wat verbouwt, zodat het bed buiten de airco stond. Toen kwamen we wel flinke stofnesten tegen, waaruit blijkt dat alleen oppervlakkig schoon wordt gemaakt. Bij het gebruik van de warme douche gaan de lampen in de badkamer heel erg knipperen. Dit benoemd bij de werknemer, maar dit is blijkbaar bij alle huisjes zo.
• Max (8/5): Staff member Kisho was very customer focused and helpful. Overalll good value. - Eco friendly and well designed layout in serene surrounding with bird life. No TV and entertainment, which maybe deliberate to mitigate disturbance to other clients.
• Audrey Edward (9/5): Absolutely Amazing Stay! - This place is truly a hidden gem. It's incredibly peaceful and surrounded by nature a you're right in the middle of a coconut garden! We were lucky enough to spot peacocks, monkeys, and birds right from our balcony. The views from the room were just stunning, and it really felt like we were cut off from the outside world in the best way possible. The staff were all amazing—super friendly and always ready to help. Breakfast was excellent every morning, and the overall service made our stay even more
• Audrey Edward (10/5): - Amazing stay
• Raj (9/5): - The cottage in the coconut garden seems like an ideal retreat, offering a cozy and peaceful atmosphere with modern amenities like the super king bed, air conditioning, and Wi-Fi. The remote location adds to the charm, and it's great to hear that the staff was accommodating, helping with transportation and providing a lovely breakfast. Overall, it seems like a wonderful stay!
• Menendez (8/5): - El desayuno y el trato del personal fue lo mejor. el wifi no funcionaba muy bien.
• Sofìa (10/5): - "I had an excellent stay at COCOLAGOON Resort in Nilaveli. value for money, with private cottages in a very quiet and peaceful setting. The room and bathroom were spotlessly clean, adding to the comfort of the stay. It’s within walking distance to the beautiful Nilaveli Beach, making it a perfect location for relaxation. The staff were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the breakfast was excellent. Highly recommended for anyone looking for tranquility, comfort, and great hospitality!"
• Alissa (9/5): A Pleasant Stay 😄 - Our stay at Cocolagoon Eco-Resort was truly enjoyable. The surroundings were lovely, and the overall atmosphere was quiet, peaceful, and relaxing. We arrived earlier than planned, but that was not an issue—the staff was incredibly friendly, helpful, and always available. The chalet was clean and beautifully designed, complete with a charming private veranda that we loved. it was perfect for the two of us. There was also ample private parking, which was a great convenience. One of the highlights was the location—Nilaveli Beach is just a short walk away, and it is absolutely stunning. missing Swimming pool & Bar
• Reina (9/5): Highly recommendable! - Quiet, clean, spacious cottages and super friendly and helpful staff who made our stay very comfortable and joyful! The only thing we missed was a swimming pool. However, with the sea on 15mn walking distance this is just a minor detail.
• Mahide (8/5): Comfortable stay - Room size and amenities were good. Basic breakfast. Hardworking staff. Close to the road, so some units get noise. The place does not have a relaxing aura. Beach is walking distance but need tuktuk after dark. We would book beachfront property with less comfort next time (or increase the budget).
• Lea (9/5): -
• Luciana (8/5): Standard singalesi a prezzi europei - La struttura ha buone potenzialità, ma non sono sfruttate. Gli chalet sono carini, ma datati e si nota un po' di trascuratezza. La colazione viene servita in un'area accanto alla reception ed è poco variegata. Tuttavia la disponibilità e la cordialità dello staff riescono a far sorvolare su questi dettagli. A 10 minuti a piedi c'è la spiaggia frequentata maggiormente dalla popolazione locale, ma è preferibile spostarsi ad Uppuveli a 5 minuti di tuk-tuk per spiagge maggiormente attrezzate. Zanzare in camera, condizionatore diretto sul letto, poca cura dei dettagli.
• Claudio (7/5): Potenziale non sfruttato - Gli chalet sono molto carini da fuori, lo staff è molto gentile, la stanza era pulita, posizione molto buona. Bagno male odorante, mancanza di essenziali per la doccia, mancanza di piú asciugamani, la posizione del condizionatore sparata dritta sul letto, pareti non intonacate. Area ristoro caldissima e per niente accogliente. La colazione già servita sul tavolo prima del nostro arrivo.
• Amir (9/5): -
• alessandra (6/5): Struttura semplice ed essenziale nella natura - Struttura carina come da foto. Per arrivare alla spiaggia bisogna fare circa 10 min a piedi e la sera per andare nei ristorantini sulla spiaggia abbiamo sempre usato il tuktuk. Acqua calda disponibile nei bagni e personale molto gentile e disponibile Il bagno migliorabile e il cancello della struttura chiudeva alle 22.30 quindi se si rientrava dopo bisognava svegliare una persona del personale gentilissima per aprire
• René (8/5): zu Fuß zum Traumstrand - Die Lage des Hotels ist sehr gut, 10 Minuten zu Fuß zu einem wunderschönen Strand. Die (noch nicht fertiggestellte) Hotelanlage ist schön konzipiert . Die einzelnen Bungalows sind innen gut eingerichtet und haben ein sauberes Bad mit Warmwasser. Jeder Bungalow hat einen kleinen Vorbereich mit Sitzgelegenheit, was wir auch viel genutzt haben. Nach dem ersten Toastbrot-Frühstück haben wir dem Manager mitgeteilt, dass wir uns eher etwas landestypisches gewünscht hätten und prompt kamen Pancakes, Früchte und Kokosnüsse zu uns auf die Veranda. Wir haben angeregt, die Gäste nach der Buchung schon nach ihren Frühstückswünschen zu fragen. Wie bereits erwähnt ist das Standard Toast-Frühstück nichts für uns. Wenn wir reisen, wollen wir die Landesküche kennenlernen.
• T. (8/5): -
• Duncan (9/5): - Individual bungalows are really nice. The grounds are well maintained but relaxing to be in.
• Ben3341 (9/5): Séjour agréable à Nilaveli - Le logement est situé dans un magnifique jardin entretenu !!! Il dispose de tout ce qui est nécessaire pour passer un bon séjour. La salle de bain propre est agréable et la literie de la chambre est de qualité. La plage est à seulement 10min à pieds. Je recommande cet établissement. Le wifi est un peu faible par moment et le petit déjeuner peut être amélioré.
• Shubhkiran (8/5): - The staff will go above and beyond to make your stay comfortable. Really good value for the price. Ants, but that’s a given in such green locations.
• tijs (8/5): Een heel leuk verblijf aan het strand, meer dan het strand is er niet te beleven. - De hutjes zijn heel erg fijn op een prachtige locatie weg van de drukte. Wifi was niet echt goed.
• Julie (7/5): - Tout était bien sauf qu'au mois de juillet il n'y avait pas de quoi se restaurer le soir ni le midi. Avec des enfants c'est dommage
• Godelieve (9/5): Heel goede lokatie hier in Nilaveli. Heel vriendelijk personeel. - Alles was zeer goed. Ontbijt voortreffelijk. Niet van toepassing
• Tony (10/5): Relaxing Escape at Cocolagoon eco Resort ⛵ - Our stay at CocolagoonEcoResort Nilaveli was highly satisfactory. The resort's facilities met our expectations for quality. The room was clean and comfortable. The staff was friendly and helpful. The location was peaceful and serene. The resort is a short walk from Nilaveli Beach, which is known for its pristine white sand, clear turquoise waters, and relaxed atmosphere. The resort's garden setting is extremely quiet, and bus and tuk tuk service is readily available for transportation to the town. I highly recommend this resort to anyone seeking a relaxing getaway in Sri Lanka.🙏🌟
• Ponnamperuma (1/5): we booked & payed for 2 days but only stay one night.we due to mosquito bites.no wifi .no room service only one p - Nothing liked , very bad experience 😡😡 lot of mosquito in the room .

• Carmel John (10/5): A hidden gem in the heart of nature 🌿🏖️ - Cocolagoon Eco Resort provided the perfect escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. The resort is a 5 minute walk from the beautiful beach. A tuk tuk is easily available to get you to the beach. The staff were very friendly and helpful. Really very clean and neat bedrooms and bathrooms. The resort's accommodations were designed with the utmost comfort and relaxation in mind. The beds provided a haven for a restful night's sleep, ensuring guests woke up feeling refreshed and rejuvenated. It was a true sanctuary for weary travelers seeking solace. Yoga and meditation practitioners will find this place ideal for deepening their connection with nature I wholeheartedly recommend Cocolagoon Eco Resort to all seeking a remarkable and responsible getaway.
• Hansaja Herath (10/5): Awesome - The place is really looks like a pictures.its has really cozy vibe and very relaxing,chilling like feeling.Really recommend for friends and families.Rooms are vey nice and clean, Bathroom clean too....You can put BBQ party in there but u have to get some permission kind a stuff with other guests. But This place worth it for money and give superb vibe...I like that... Recommend👍👍👍 They stopped there restaurant for some renovations so we had to get lunch and dinner out side. But they give breakfast for some price.
• Daan (10/5): Very clean and Nature Resort - Loved our recent stay at the Good Nature Hotel. CocolagoonecoResort. Great location and quiet place, close to several bus lines. Walking distance to the beach and the Pigeon Island tour ticketing office. Breakfast was excellent and wonderful staff. The bathroom was very clean. Hot water is available. The location of the hotel was great and we enjoyed our stay and would recommend it as a great hotel in a fantastic location. It would be much better if there was a swimming pool
• Poul (10/5): Amazing Beautiful Eco Resort - It was a good experience and the service was very good. Breakfast was excellent.  The beach is a 5 minute walkable distance.  I got all the support and help from the staff. It felt almost home. Rooms and toilets are very clean. I could use all the amenities, and the area is well maintained. it's a very relaxing place and very peaceful. I missed Rex (Dog) 🐕😁.I'm happy to come back again
• Alessia (10/5): The Best Natural Beauty.... - La migliore bellezza naturale.... La villa è molto pulita e confortevole. Condizionatore, acqua calda e tutto il resto funziona. feels like home 😍. staff was incredibly helpful, The view is stunning from the rooms. The hotel is on the coconut garden, so you are surrendered by nature and lake. Also, it is a perfect spot to see the sunset. value for money. Location located not too far from Nilaveli beach location is absolutely stunning. Overall, our short stay in Cocolagoon was awesome because we found a great place to stay.
• GIULIA (5/5): Non ci tornerei - Le camere sono carine e particolari Su booking viene indicato come possibile pagare con carta mentre all’arrivo ci è stato detto che accettano solo cash. L’unica persona che c’era nella struttura che faceva da tutto fare non parla inglese e quindi diventa difficile la comunicazione
• Thillainathan (5/5): Can be an enjoyable stay - Good atmosphere. Good vegetarian breakfast.friendly staff. Utility interruptions. Toads jumbing around
• Sampath (4/5): -
