Guest Reviews
- Helena (8/5): - Pěkné apartmány v kvetoucích chatičkách.
K dispozici bazén. Vše okolo čisté, plno zeleně.
Pobyt se snídaní. Vždy se o nás hezky postarali, milý personál, jídlo chutné.
Zařídili nám i přejezd mimo resort. Protékalo umyvadlo.
- Klaus (7/5): - Gute Lage und ein schönes kleines Hotel mit gutem Essen.. Die Scheiben der Räume sind sehr dünn und damit sehr hellhörig.
- Mohamed (1/5): Bad - Place good Room good
- Howie (4/5): Disappointing - Very poor WiFi
Very poor A/C
Many things that were advertised did not exist eg spa
- Nanthakumar (1/5): Bad -
- Sydney (10/5): Exceptional -
- Jeanne (3/5): Poor - Close to the airport Amenities in the room are broken or in bad condition
Cleaning : ok. Except we found a cockroach
Not good values for the price
- Uthpala (6/5): Beautiful villas. But facilities are not great with some safety concerns. - Villas look beautiful, beautiful garden. Stayed in villa no 3. Unfortunately had no internet in the room or the balcony. Pool had some sharp metal plates.
- Giedrius (9/5): Superb -
- Nakeli (5/5): The place was very nice estheticly but the room smells wasn’t pleasant to be in. - It had really good potential for a really nice stay. The beds were comfortable and had nice rooms. And the property was well kept. The workers didn’t speak English very well. But the manager was very helpful. The rooms smelled like mold coming out of the air conditioner and had no windows we could open for ventilation. The first room had a bad smell from the toilet. The second room smelled like mold. The pool was very dirty so I did t let my kids swim in it.
- Prabhath (1/5): Bad -
- Bruce (3/5): Very poor service - Location is not too far from Airport The booking included airport pick up. I had been trying to confirm this so I could book another place if they cannot provide an airport pick up. The hotel waited until last minute and send a message that they will not pick and will refund $7. It was very disappointing.
The property was not clean.
The breakfast was very poor. There were flies on the food. They just gave just bread and omelette. Nothing else. very poor
- Neil (8/5): Very good -
- Ahmed (6/5): Pleasant -
- Mandy (8/5): Very good -
- Merlino (8/5): Very good - Easy from airport and clean.
Good breakfast
- Nikki (2/5): Very poor - Photos must be 10 years out of date. Nothing like. Breakfast room dirty shack. Arranged a 3am check in but place was locked up. Took 20 minutes to get let in.
- Nigel (8/5): Ideal for a one night stay. - Good value for one night Breakfast was very basic. Toast with two fried eggs and jam with small coffee. Website offered free pick up from airport but was told in advance that they could not.
- Malcolm (6/5): Clean, friendly. - Staff friendly and accomodating. Room was good, lovely gardens and pool. Western breakfast can be improved. Transport options lacking.
Not enough water pressure, very slow shower and toilet took a very long time to fill.
- Sutharsan (10/5): Best of the best - Nice and clean very good staff
Excellent location and service provided
- Daniel (1/5): Avoid! Very dirty hotel. - Leaving the hotel. Everything, it was filthy rundown property. The breakfast was terrible full of flies.
Worse hotel I have everest stayed having been to over 30 countries - avoid.
- Maddie (9/5): Superb -
- Cheryl (9/5): Quiet, handy to airport - Loved waking up in quiet location with decent pool and nice green outlook. Friendly manager and staff, felt semi-rural yet so close to airport with free airport shuttle.
- Daniel (7/5): Good -
- Deborah (8/5): Welcome tired visitors - Very close to the airport and they provided a ride to the hotel included . The breakfast was typical Sri Lankan with fantastic eggs. Fruit fresh from the tree and happy to give us extra helpings. Friendly staff and welcome juice and filtered water in the rooms. Accommodation was a little tired but everything worked except we couldn't get any hot water for shower.
- Tracey (5/5): convinent to airport easy pick up drop off but nothing around so noisy around pool znd cars motor bikes - location to airport free pick up from airport noisy,people sitting on my balcony, blinds had to be closed, no hot water or tea making, nothing around hotel
- Gael (10/5): Very friendly staff always looking to make their guest happy. - calm, close to the airport, great food, kids friendly.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - A good place for a night in transit but not for extended stays. Staff very helpful , nice home cooked meals. Free airport pickup was very handy. Very quiet surroundings. Nice pool
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Didn’t like breakfast and when inquiring about getting a taxi the price quoted was more than other companies I contacted
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Off the beaten track although we did arrive late and couldn't see anything..very close to the airport
- Christopher (10/5): - Brilliant, pick up perfect
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Its a good place to stay when trying to cinvene with a flight. The food was good. I had an allergy that I flagged but food still came out with some of the foods but that was down to language barrier rather than poor service. The room was very comfortable but there was a bit of a smell from the shower drain. The towel I had been given had a hole torn in the middle of it. The staff were lovely though and dropped us to the airport. It was just a bit expensive but would still stay there again if needed to be near the airport.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - The rooms with a pool view had a wonderful bungalow design. Very nice staff. Close to airport stayed there before our flight.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - It certainly isn’t 3 star. Hotel manager was good and helpful . Only good thing is the property is close to airport
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The manager was very efficient and friendly including 2 trips to airport as we arrived at separate times plus organised driver for trip to Kandy. Food was made for us when we needed it and was delivered with great smile. Pool was beautiful. Was a great stayover after late arrivals into Colombo airport, only 10 min drive away.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - Near airport - 15 mins drive. Pickup and drop facility.. but only one time. Else, in a quiet rural setting.
- B. (10/5): - This hotel is as beautiful in reality as it is on the pictures. I loved the pool and hammocks. The staff was very friendly and helpful (we got a vegan breakfast at 5 am since our flight left so early). I also loved the free airport shuttle which got us to the airport in only a few minutes. Altogether, I'd definitely stay there again and I would also recommend it to others who fly into the nearby airport.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Fantastic stay! Feels very secluded, though very close to the airport. Rooms were clean with beautifully updated bathrooms and rain shower head. Pool was gorgeous and sounds of the birds a relaxing wake up. Service was incredible - so helpful and accommodating to anything you could need!
Tip: ask for a room near reception if you want good wifi - or don't if you (like me) could use some time off the grid!
- Verified traveler (8/5): Excellent service , close to airport. - The driver Kalana was excellent. I had forgotten to bring my meds so he drove me the pharmacy to get it. Truly appreciate it.
When u arrive, just call them via Whatsap while inside the airport. They will pick u and drop u off. This resort is nestled in a village near to the airport.there is no water heater. Overall, it was a pleasant experience.
- Baran (10/5): - It is a beautiful place, peaceful, quiet, relaxing.. People are very nice and friendly. They also make very delicious local food. I will go and stay there again. I strongly recommend.
- Karthik (8/5): - Its like a jungle hideaway close to the airport !
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Only 10 minutes from the airport with free airport pick up and drop off service!
The room is nice and spacious
Staff were very friendly
The food is nice
Very nice experience!
- Lee&Troy (10/5): - Very helpful staff after a long late flight arrival, lovely breakfast chats and transfer to our next hotel was more like a mini tour of negambo!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Nice room, great pool and other amenities. Staff was very kind to us and flexible to fit our needs and a very early trip to the airport.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Wonderful place, close to the airport. - Very nice chalet style room. Wonderful staff. Free airport shuttle.
I would happily stay again
- Verified traveler (10/5): Very relaxing quiet and serene. - Wonderful stay so relaxing away from the hustle bustle. The factv that it has very few rooms makes it more relaxing.The front staff Sajid was so friendly .The only i was disappointed was the free breakfast ,we were expecting more in menu but just gave fruit and bread butter jam.He made eggs thats all.
But otherwise would reccomend and would def go again.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Very nice atmosphere and the staff are quite friendly.
- Lanne (10/5): - This property was great because of it’s proximity to the airport. The setting is gorgeous and so peaceful. The restaurant food was like homemade. And the staff were so kind. I would definitely stay here again.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Friendly staff and very helpful. Wifi from the room was not very strong. For airport pickup it would be helpful to give instructions for people to stand right next to the Post Office sign at the Post Office.
- Santosh (8/5): Great Place, Staff and Ambiance. But poor food! - The location it self was fantastic. Very exotic feel. Nice tropical feel to the cabanas and the beds were comfortable.
The staff was extremely friendly and useful. The taxi service was a bit higher than norm but it’s worth the safety aspect if you are not about traveling via Uber.
Food was the one negative that I had there and would recommend eating anywhere but there. I would have rather eaten food at a McDonalds than the food there.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - The property was extremely clean and well maintained. Beautiful garden entrance. Air conditioning was fantastic as was the ceiling fan. You will need your own toiletries. Ahmed , the host , was the most friendly, kind , accommodating person. The breakfast served was fantastic.
Thoroughly recommend a transit stay here.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Its location and free airport transfer made it an ideal choice. loved its rural location,
- Tirso (10/5): Nice place! - Nice staff, great place, very clean...nice to stay for more than just 1 night...I did it for 3!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We appreciate to be in the nature and so close from the international airport. After the long flight we were enjoying the calm and animals noise. The rooms are vast and very clean. We could use the pool all the time. Very helpful and friendly staff.
Transport from the airport included
- Verified traveler (10/5): - perfect stop on either first or last night of your trip. Convenient location, airport shuttle, tasty breakfast, value for money. I would recommend.
- P. (10/5): - The staff are very friendly and helpful. Our room was nicely decorated, clean and comfortable. The swimming pool and badminton court was very nice to have. The food was also very tasry. Would highly recommend if you're in the area.
- Venus (6/5): - The hotel is very close to Airport, only 8min by car. Hotel offers 24hr free pickup services are good and professional.
- Jodi (8/5): Peaceful place by the airport. - I needed a place for the day and night before my flight. This place was very relaxing co spidering it’s so close to the airport. They upgraded me to a cottage which was very nice. The only thing they could improve upon the was the food. It wasn’t bad but ok. Very nice place to stay though when wanting to be close to the airport.
- Lana (2/5): Should be unlisted ! - Horrific not a hotel
- Lachlan (8/5): Good airport hotel - My wife and I stayed here for one night before we flew out early the next day. The property is pretty cool with a large comfortable room, good pool and overall a good space. One oversight is that there is no soap in the room! There is very little in the surrounding area however. We had dinner and breakfast at the resort and both were nice if a little overpriced. We got a ride to the airport the next morning from the resort which is a good added service. Overall I would recommend but make sure you have your own soap.
- Mary (8/5): - Good choice if needing a hotel near airport staff are extremely helpful
- Patrick (8/5): - Convenient location near airport good pool. Some lack in English skills of some of the staff, but they were all friendly. Only 3 rooms plus 4 bungalows, another building should be ready in June. No drinks, only beer and red wine (full bottle only). A proper bar would spice up the visit. We had late lunch wich was OK, freshly made just for us. Prefer that to buffet. Cow next door, chickens on property just adds to positives.
- Sandra (8/5): Good rest stop after/before airport - We checked in here to wait for our flight, we were only here 11 hours, but we managed to get some sleep, the bed was springy but still comfortable and the air con was great. The room was very clean and there was a shower.
We had a great welcome from staff, and they were concerned when our driver to the airport was late, and even offered to drive us if we needed them to.
The pool looked lovely, but we decided against using it, as we didn’t want to travel with wet bathing gear.
The food in the restaurant was a mixed bag, the rice was great, as was the ice cream, but the coated ‘chicken’ left a lot to be desired.
- Ss (6/5): - the manager sent me the message to buy something from the duty free shop, as a guest, quite surprised and even i once rejected he asked me again...
airport transfer did not arrive so soon even though i have kept informing him the progress from the landing...
you should expect the later pick up than the message you receive from the hotel.
hotel is ok, but noise from the next room was quite disappointing..
many improvements required, although it is cheap.
- Andrew (10/5): Airport Stay. - Lovely first night stay, very close to airport. Not much about locally but they took us out to get dinner. Breakfast was great and swimming pool refreshing.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - The property which I reserves through Expedia was called Airport Resort, though it looks like this photo. I arrived at Colombo airport at 23.30 on Sunday, 10/02/2019,and called the hotel, as advised, for transportation, about a 10 minute ride. After my suitcases were removed from the car and the reception man saw my passport and res. Print out, he suddenly said that I was transferred to another nearby property. His excuse was an electricity problem, which seemed odd as he said nothing about the change when I called from the airport &hadn’t notified the driver. The partner hotel,called Airport Eco was far from a 3 star “resort. My room was a small cabin with a single & Queen size bed, both wrapped in gauzy netting. It was clean & I was tired from a long flight & just needed to sleep. The next morning I was unable to use the shower, installed in a cement boxlike space,consisting of several expensive looking shower heads & some sort of Instant hot water heater placed about 2meters up the wall with switches only a giant could reach; no way I could see to turn on the shower whic would have flown onto the floor, ultimately to a small drain next to the toilet. In a.m. a meager breakfast. The young man from the first hotel appeared for payment as I’d reserve only with credit card. He deducted US$7 from quoted rate $52 +$30 insisted on local currency on my credit card which confused me. No amenities shown in original ad, pool, WiFi, etc. Overchgd for downgrade room.
- Verified traveler (6/5): - It’s okay for short stay good food. Good staffs. Checked in at 11.30pm still good service .
- Verified traveler (8/5): Comfortable layover hotel - We checked in here at 2am as a quick stopover after our flights and it is exactly as advertised!It’s 15-20 mins from airport hence you can hear the planes still but rooms are comfortable whilst basic but to be expected given the price! The staff were very friendly and helpful even at 2am! Overall recommend if a cheap comfortable layover hotel for an early flight/late arrival.
- Verified traveler (10/5): Overnight stay - Stop over after arriving at airport. Called the telephone number as instructed and a car arrived to collect me. My luggage was lost so i was able to buy a razor, toothpaste and brush from the hotel. Good food, comfortable accomodation, able to give me lift to airport at end of stay. Nice hospitality, would stay again and recommend to friends
- Jackie (6/5): - Great location near to airport perfect for short stopover before or after flying. Staff friendly and transfer to airport great. Only downside is no onsite bar to get drinks from so take your own.
- Zahera (8/5): - Our check in was not pleasant. We arrived at 10PM. And he told us room is not ready. Obliviously, we were not happy. When I asked, you knew we were coming then why did you not keep room ready. In response, he was very rude. But later, he calm down and was ok.
- Peter (2/5): A scam. avoid at all costs - This is a scam. Booked and paid for “Airport Resort”, with free airport shuttle “5 minutes away”. Confirmed by Whatsapp message the day before. No email address for “Airport Resort” provided by Hotels.com.
Shuttle took 40 minutes to arrive. We were then taken, without explanation to “Hostel City Hub Colombo Airport”. Not what we booked. Substandard, but it doesn’t end there. We were then taken to another nameless unmanned “hotel” (loose description), with a bed in a room, no amenities, no wifi, not even a rubbish bin. Never again Hotels.com. Bet you don’t publish this.
- Patricia (10/5): - Close and convenient to the airport. Service very good.
- L.B (8/5): - Great little airport hotel with useful free airport shuttle transfer. Rooms are comfortable and clean. Just a shame we couldn’t haven’t an evening meal when we arrived due to chef being unavailable.
Would definitely recommend this hotel.
- PracticalTravel (8/5): - Clean unpretentious rooms with good a/c. Staff was helpful and friendly. They provided free shuttle to airport on demand. WiFi worked better in lobby than in room. Restaurant provided needed nourishment after a long day. I would stay again if I had a very late or early flight from CMB
- Dan (8/5): - Very good for the price. The only challenge was operating the tv. Would strongly recommend.
- Verified traveler (8/5): - Good place for an overnight to be close to airport. Had a really unpleasant check-in experience with an out of sorts staff person which soured the experience.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very nice resort, friendly staff, quite are, overall very relaxing
- Steve (2/5): - Terrible hotel. No towels, dirty beds, half opened bottles of water. Total rip off for what it was. This is 1 star at best. Avoid at all costs.
- Ian (8/5): Great location and a lovely place. - A perfect location for a late night arrival into Colombo. Left early the next day, but wish we could have stayed longer as the whole family loved it. The driver was waiting for us when we came out of the airport and everything was perfect.
- Jay (2/5): - Not informed the hotel was out of power until half way theought the airport shuttle pick up. Was taken to a local 1 star hotel in the night where staff showered on the roof of the room in the middle of the night... Horible experuence. Nor aure if they o er ooked or really had a power problem. Luckily we were only planning to sleep there on our way to Kandy.
- Benjamin (6/5): Basic accomodation not suitable for babies - It's a nice little boutique with a small garden and swimming pool but not really appropriate for a family with young kids/babies.
They don't provide baby cots and even though I emailed them a few times to ask whether baby cot and transportation could be arranged, they never replied my emails... So we had that bad surprise upon check-in.
Room comfort is very basic but good enough for a short stay. Very near the airport, which is convenient.
- Verified traveler (2/5): - First of all,
They didn’t take me to the hotel I booked.
When we’re going from airport the driver told me not going to the hotel I booked,
I asked him why?
He replied that hotel have electricity problem.
I said ok,but the hotel they put me had some wedding reception.
From 10pm to 12am music was very loud and high base volume and I could not sleep until 12am .
My heart was pumping very fast and I thought I am going to die.
I am very disappointed by this hotel.
- Teresa (10/5): Perfect Transit Hotel - Perfect location for arrival or departure night. Free shuttle. Free WIFI
Very close to the airport, but you can sit round the swimming pool and feel like you are in the jungle. Good Pool, clean spacious rooms, tea, coffee and water provided in room.
Dinner at the hotel $15 per head (beer $2 each). Not much outside the hotel so you will need to eat here or before you arrive. Good breakfast, friendly staff.
- Josh (10/5): Close to airport - Fantastic little bungalows overlooking a nice pool. Great breakfast included. Luggage storage available, great place to stay near airport but you don't feel like you are. Free shuttle pick up and transfer. Very friendly staff.
- Simon (8/5): A good choice before or after a flight - Lovely cabins overlooking a beautiful pool. The local curry at the restaurant was the best we’ve had on our trip. They provided a cot which was shown as not available so a extra. A nicer larger bed mattress and sheets would be a improvement. Some toiletries are the norm for a 4 star needed adding. The transfer to the airport went as clockwork. We would stay here again and we can be fussy.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Close to airport and very peaceful. Would recommend.
- Stephanie (10/5): - Great location, close to the airport (around 10-15min drive). We stayed here for a night just after we land (1am) and before we started our journey the next day at 7am. There was only one other couple who were staying here when we checked in. There is a pool at the location that was open 24/7 so we went for a night dip after we checked in. Room was clean and has basic amenities you needed. Furniture were a little old and worn (despite the hotel being only a year old) but it didn’t really hurt the experience as we were only there for a few hours. Breakfast was included in this booking. Chef made us a heavy breakfast with toast, eggs, fresh fruits, tea and coffee. Great stay overall as a stopover before or after your flight!
- CHUCK (8/5): - We had a 8 hour wait at Colombo airport and needed somewhere close and cheap. The Airport Resort suited perfectly. The Resort is still a work in progress, but the rooms were clean and quiet.
The staff were friendly and most helpful.
The free airport transfers were real clinchers.
For a SHORT stay, I throughly recommend this place.
- Anand (8/5): Good Stay! - It was good & efficient.
- Regan (10/5): - Great place for a brief stopover en route to the Maldives. We loved it and wished we could have stayed longer. Complimentary airport shuttle was very handy. The pictures are authentic and the rooms just beautiful!
- Verified traveler (10/5): - We had the most wonderful experience at the Airport RESORT. We booked this hotel as a last stop before taking our flight the next or ing. We have a small child so we thought to take things slow.
The staff greeted us very warmly took our luggage to our room and offered us complimentary drinks.
We were so very lucky to be at the hotel the night of the Perahera parade passing right in front of the hotel, which is a parade of different Buddhist temples with elephants and dancers. It was the most beautiful experience and a chance to be with other locals.
The hotel staff brought us chairs and water and took great care of us.
They served us a great meal and the next morning a wonderful breakfast. The staff even looked after our one year old son while we ate!
The complimentary shuttle to the airport is a big plus and reduces the hassle of ordering or calling
- Verified traveler (8/5): Close to the airport - The hotel was very close to the airport, and the rooms themselves were decently clean, but the amenities were quite sparse, and there was no after hours reception desk. The areas outside the room were not the cleanest. It's suitable for a layover spot close to the airport, but I wouldn't choose this hotel otherwise for my stay.
- Di (6/5): Close to airport - This place is close to the airport and has a lovely pool area . But there was nowhere to hang dresses or shirts and no conditioner in the bathroom . mix matched towels one with a stain . Breakfast made to order and not a buffet it was adequate but nothing special.. ok stay for the price
- Lauren (10/5): Hidden Gem - We stayed here for one night before we flew home to England but the service and comfort of our stay was above expected! The rooms were lovely and spacious, modern and the beds were comfy. We had a lovely evening meal at the hotel after arriving late in the day and was given a free airport transfer the next morning.
- Jetty (8/5): - A good place close to the airport, they drop you at the airport too. So very convenient especially if you have a morning flight out. Kalana Sandeepa will take great care of you.
- Daniel (4/5): No blankets - The beds had only one sheet and no blanket. I didn’t sleep at all. The only reason to give the place any stars is that the staff was helpful and polite. The management needs to provide blankets on the beds.
- Mohammad (8/5): - Nice place to stay, good service. I’ll recommend others too.
- kristy (2/5): Issues with transfers - The hotel claims to have an airport transfer service. On the day of travel they sent me a message with a number to call when I arrived to get the car. No one answered. After 5 attempts I gave and got a taxi as I was traveling with a distraught child.
On arrival at the hotel there was no one to be found. Eventually he turned up and reluctantly checked us into our rooms. I received a shrug when I asked about the transfer.
Breakfast was horrible.
Check out was just as bad. Again staff were either unavailable or unresponsive. The car did turn up this time but had no workable seatbelts. The hotel staff would not assist with bags.
I would not Recommend this hotel to anyone. Even for convenient transit.
- Verified traveler (8/5): Nice stay, nice service, great cooking. - Nice, clean stay before the flight out. Very kind airport shuttle service no matter what time of the day (or night).
The food served in the little restaurant is a bit expensive, but very good.
