Memorable stay… Beautiful location in hikkaduwa
Bien
Could be better
It was a wonderful place to stay. The staff were especially kind and had lovely smiles. Breakfast was delicious too.
The facilities are a bit old.
Breakfast was AlaCarte and was not up to standard
Better food options. Being a sea side resort, should have had more seafood options.
Nice, clean and well-located hotel. All the staff was very kind and helpful during our stay. Its excellent location allowed us to find several restaurants open despite the low season.
Amazing views from the room and loved the beanbag area. Nice pool which was a good alternative to swimming in the rough seas (early monsoon season). Excellent food from the restaurant. Parking was easy in an empty lot across the road. Location was walking distance to see the sea turtles.
Worst experience in Sri Lanka.. Made a big mistake in booking in such hotel.. Size of the room is so small..
Everything is so old.. fridge is rusted from inside.. Not recommend to anyone.. Lady on the reception is cheating by taking higher exchange rate then the rates provided by ATM..
The location is fabulous. The reception team Kelum and sasini was very polite & helpful.
Everything was perfect. Simple and easy
A view to die for, unforgettable food, and a location that can’t be beat truly an amazing experience!
Lage direkt am Strand ist ein Plus, wobei man jedoch aufgrund der starken Gezeiten nicht immer ins Wasser kann. Hotel ist etwas in die Jahre gekommen. Wir hatten ein Zimmer mit Meerblick, welches geräumig war. Zimmer zur Straße sind kleiner. Personal war sehr freundlich. Zentral gelegen zum Hauptstrand.
Good location Good pool Decent food and rooms
Great location - you can can walk everywhere or get a short tuk tuk. Very friendly staff, stunning views of the sea and value for money.
The linen and towels smelled very quickly after one use.
Location, staff & pool area
The room cleanliness, ants in room, very loud room,
Reception was very helpful Dining room service was excellent The food was good The room was cleaned to a good standard Nice pool area
Our room bathroom and hallways We felt could do with a refurbishment We were very disappointed nothing like the photos shown on your website
Coral Rock is conveniently located, right near Turtle Point. Views from the terrace are great.
The room (and especially the bathroom) smelled like cigarettes - which is rather disgusting. We asked for a different room, but reception said there were none available (even though it's been raining cancellations in Sri Lanka due to the situation in the Middle East, and the hotel was anything but fully booked). All our clothes still smelled like cigarettes the rest of our trip. The headboard of the bed was disgusting. Also, the water in the pool looked it hadn't been cleaned in a while. Honestly, I would avoid this town altogether, because it feels like a Russian enclave.
Номер хороший, удобный
Отель расположен не там, где указана точка в букинге. Отель расположен между океаном и шоссе, по которому круглосуточно ездят машины и гудят, так как шумоизоляции нет то ощущение, что ты спишь на обочине, очень шумно.
Location and food. The rooms really well sound insulted.
Nothing
Beautiful place. We asked a sea view room and we found it amazing. The staff very kind. Comfy beds. Clean room and facilities.
I loved everything
Location is amazing. Staff are lovely and very helpful. Pool is clean. Rooms are cleaned every day and very comfortable. Close to lots of restaurants. Would highly recommend.
Had to ask for shampoo,conditioner and coffee supplies to be replaced as this was not done when the room was cleaned.
Location Breakfast 7/10 Welcome
Small bathroom Smokers on neighboring balconies
Pool amazing . private beach. Close to turtle beach and main strip.
Rooms need a bit of TLC but very clean. good for money and would recommend to anyone and would stay again
The property’s location is excellent — unfortunately, that’s the only positive aspect.
While the property’s location is excellent, that’s unfortunately the only real positive. The rooms are very outdated and not properly cleaned, and the bathroom plumbing is poor — water stays in the sink for a long time instead of draining. The bed was dirty, and the pool had a strong unpleasant smell and was also unclean. The walls have fungs molds Basic amenities were lacking as well — no complimentary water bottles were provided, so I had to buy them from the market. Several electrical fittings were loose, which felt unsafe, and there was no proper blanket or comforter provided — only one very thin sheet to cover. Considering the overall condition of the property, the prices are quite high and do not offer good value for money. I would not recommend staying here unless major improvements are made.
This hotel is without a doubt the best hotel on Hikkaduwa beach. The view is outstanding, the pool is lovely and clean. The bed is super comfy, the room is a bit dated but had everything we needed. The staff are super friendly and helpful.
Läget vid havet med solstolar på terassen. God frukostbuffé.
Rummen mot staden hade en väldigt trafikerad gata utanför vilket var mycket störande.
Location was great, pool facilities were good
Bathroom was dirty, mouldy but fine for a night
We had an ocean view room, which opened onto a deck above the pool and overlooked the ocean. Great position. Friendly, helpful and accommodating staff. Good meals for dinner.
No complaints at at all.
The Indian ocean view, of the coral and sunsets from a room balcony, is fabulous. Housekeeping very good. Comfy beds. Pool.
Heavy bathroom door insists on closing with not enough room when you're in there. The hair dryer is on the wall in front right of the sink. Your albow keeps hitting it while you're using the sink. Hotel reception was with limited language skills and couldn't explain well when she rang me to cancel my booking.com before I checked in the same day. I would have been without a room at the very last minute. I then went to the hotel and ultimately communicated with others at the hotel, and another room was found.
While the city view rooms didn't quite hit the mark, staying for the sea view was a game-changer. The hotel has a charming, antique "old city" vibe, but the real highlight is the private beach access. The view alone makes it worth every penny!
N/A
Hikkaduwa er en hyggelig liten by ved sjøen. Coral Rock har super beliggenhet helt i strandkanten. Vennlig og hjelpsom personale, rent og pent, fint basseng og med gode senger.
Her, som på mange steder, er det lite knagger å henge fra seg klær og annet på.
Location was good, pool area overlooking the ocean was nice.
Bathroom was a bit small
Great location! Friendly staff
Clean, excellent view, quiet, beds were fantastic
Every things
Nothing
Das Hotel liegt wirklich, wie auf den Bildern zu sehen, direkt am Meer. Tolle Sonnenuntergänge und Wellenrauschen jeden Tag inklusive.
The beach and the pool together fir a swim. Also, the location just right there from the hotel..
Tiny bathroom, which makes me claustrophobic, I had to leave the bathroom door open.
Bebidas a buen precio. Buena piscina en frente de mar. Persona amable.
Empieza a verse un poco viejo, No es que esté en la estado, pero si le falta algo de mantenimiento. El precio un poco caro para lo que te dan, pero seguro fue por las fechas (año nuevo), sin embargo la piscina justifica en parte el quedarse allí.
Staff were very friendly. Pool area is nice, and steps down into the sea. Sea view from room was amazing. Breakfast buffet was very good.
The rooms felt a bit dated, fridge was rusty looking and just not modern. We visited at Christmas so was probably priced to time of year, but I don't think it was worth the cost compared to other places we stayed, but in saying that, it was still very comfortable to stay.
It doesn’t look like what u see in pictures noisy people speaking loudly in the lobby
Very bad smal swimming pool full with samle kids no sitting on beach very narrow beach
Good location and good hospitality! Also good drivers accommodation if you are traveling with a hired driver.
The breakfast was delicious with many different options to choose from. The overall menu is also great. The location is perfect very close to attractions and amenities. Great value for the price. The rooms are spacious and clean. The staff very friendly and helpful. Nothing seems too much to ask. I definitely enjoyed my stay here.
I have no complaints about the property. Everything was good.
Great location in town. Staff were friendly and all needs were attended
I bagni vecchissimi e mai ristrutturati, le camere non insonorizzate. Pulizia inesistente, non aprite il frigo del mini bar
Beliggenheten ypperlig, på stranden! Deilig basseng og frokost. Terrasse med havutsikt!
Dårlig trykk i dusj, kaldt vann, trangt og slitent bad.
Luxury Room with fanstastic Sea View. Room was clean. Facilities were there as expected. Superb Staff Service. Nice Menu with variety of selections. More important that it was quite and calm Place to relax your busy mind.
Only the thing was that mini fridge was there. But no any items were there.
The sea view from the room was breathtaking, and the food was absolutely delicious.
On multiple occasions, the hotel staff tried to open our door without waiting for our consent or for us to unlock it, which was both uncomfortable and inappropriate.
Отличное расположение , прям на пляже ! Убирали каждый день , выдают пляжные полотенца .в комнате не видела муравьев , достаточно комфортно . Лучше не экономить и взять вид на море , невероятные закаты и тишина , и.к в номере на дорогу может быть шумно .
Номера с видом на море - это просто прекрасно! Океан прямо под окном. Прекрасный доброжелательный персонал, все просьбы выполнялись практически моментально. Вполне приличный завтрак. Во время пребывания в отеле был мой день рождения - спасибо отелю за тортик и красиво украшенную комнату. Было очень приятно :)
Уставшая сантехника и не идеально чистое постельное бельё

Breakfast
Очень приветливый персонал Шикарный вид из окна (на океан). Отдельный балкон Вкусный завтрак, похож на европейский)
Расположение отеля просто супер!!! Вид на море который находится от отеля всего на 10 метров. Персонал очень классный, заботливый и улыбчивые.... Следующий раз с семьей планирую приехать именно суда...
Beautiful View of the Sea/Beach
Rooms weren‘t soundproof, so the breaking of the waves were pretty loud
Prachtig uitzicht, direct aan zee. De baai met turtles vlakbij. Zwembad op het terras.
De enorme harde muziek tot diep in de nacht op het terras onder ons.
The stuff was really friendly! :)
It was not reall clean. The curtains and the Windows could need some refreshment, but I think this has more to do with the building itself than the workers. Some renovations wouldn't be tooo bad.
Ein richtiges Strandhotel der gehobenen Klasse für eine Rucksackreise durch Indien. War für uns der Abschluss der Reise. Top mit Pool, Liegen und Ausblick aufs Meer. Zimmer sauber, groß, gute Klimaanlage. Super Restaurant dabei, Personal absolut zuvorkommend und bemüht.
All the staff were friendly. I liked everything. The hotel is located next to the turtle beach and there are many restaurants nearby. The room was clean ,with beautiful view. The staff, who name is Kelum and Yehan (sorry if I wrote his name wrong) informed everything and even helped to get on the bus.
Hotel face à la mer à quelques pas de la plage des tortues. très bon emplacement personnel au top , gentil ,serviable qui s'adapte aux besoins le petit déjeuné était vraiment top la chambre confort, vue sublime sur l'océan
Fab stay after a couple of nights of noisy trains at our last accommodation. Staff were really helpful and a few spoke really good English. Sian was lovely to chat with at breakfast time. Lovely pool and sea view, and the area was kept clean and tidy. Breakfast was amazing and well worth it ( buffet of busy days and set menu on other days). The rooms have safes. Hot showers were great, really comfortable beds (honestly not like stone) and good air-conditioned rooms with fans. I wish we would have been her thw whole 3 days we stayed in Hikkaduwa, thanks for an amazing stay all...much love Roberta and John. Xx
There was nothing we didn't love
The food was amazing. Our whole family enjoyed the stay
Die Unterkunft liegt super schön direkt am Meer! Man hat einen wunderschönen Ausblick vom Zimmer und auch vom Pool aus. Abends sieht man dort den tollen Sonnenuntergang. Alles war super sauber und das Personal war sehr freundlich und extrem hilfsbereit. Es gibt auch ein Restaurant welches zum Hotel dazu gehört. Wir haben uns sehr wohl gefühlt, vielen Dank!! 🫶🏼

Beautiful, clean rooms with a stunning view of the ocean from our balcony. Staff were extremely helpful and friendly and nothing was too much trouble for them. We had a great stay here!
VIEW WAS JUST AMAZING ♥️
WASH ROOM WAS NOT CLEAN AND SMELLS BAD
The view was amazing
The room was not clean and it was very old fasioned. There were bugs in the shower. It's such a pity that a hotel auch an amazing view is so ruined down. Windows are not sound proof - althoug I like the sound of waves, after some time they were very bothering and very noisy during the night.
Great location, helpful staff, comfortable room.
Bar closed too early, poor coffee in the room.
Great Beachfront Stay with Friendly Staff I had a lovely stay at Coral Rock by Bansei in Sri Lanka. It’s a small hotel located right on the beachfront, offering stunning ocean views and easy access to the public beach. The staff were friendly and helpful, always ensuring I had everything I needed. The breakfast was also quite good, with a nice selection to start the day. Overall, it was great value for money—comfortable, well-located, and welcoming. If you're looking for a relaxing beachside stay, this is a great choice!
Location is great and staff are very friendly and helpful. Thank you guys
