Turtles Bay

Clean, big rooms, pool, close to town

Nothing

Location was good just off the main road. Pool was lovely. Very good breakfast.

Had to pay in cash but not a big problem as cash point just up the road.

The pool is great and the beds are comfortable. You are very close to the beach and mutiple facilities like restaurants and supermarkets (3 min walk)

The wifi is not really good and you dont have a great signal in your room. Overall we had a good stay, but it has a big price tag

This is a fledgling hotel that has potential, they just need some more comforts & staff training. It was impeccably clean. We booked a family room with bunks for the kids. Beds were comfy, AC worked well. Furniture (chairs tables sunloungers etc) look hand made & they are damn hard to sit/lie on, need cushions/pillows, especially by the pool! Area is a bit quieter as it is a 5min (easy) walk from the main street, but it is next to a mosque so early morning Fajr is a tad loud, as is Friday prayers, but it only goes for a few minutes. The pool is lovely. I do wish this hotel success, they just need to tweak it a bit to be more inviting.

Improvements needed; *Rubbish bins in bathroom & room (kettle & mini fridge would be amazing too!) *Bathrooms aren't very pretty & zero bench space area to put your toiletries bag etc * padding on sunbeds & outdoor towels for guest use * Change instant coffee to real coffee at breakfast * Breakfast menu to view & ask guests what they would prefer

Good (western) breakfast, big clean rooms and location 4 min walking from the beach.

Bathroom was smelly. Like all other places in Arugambay, the cost per night is higher then other locations in Sri Lanka, even though the quality is the same.
