"What a delightful stay at Karpaha Sands on the East coast of Sri Lanka . The beautiful beachfront property, great staff and fabulous food all made for a great experience. The staff here have smiles galore and are very helpful and obliging. The small touches like cookies and chocolate brought to your room in the evening, the complimentary fruit juices brought to your beach lounge, home made jams at breakfast , small taster pre dinner are lovely extras. A glitch on check in had us changing rooms and a bit disappointing start as we had rooms booked for a birthday celebration. An upgrade was offered but did not eventuate. The facilities are designed to really appreciate the sea views and breeze -pool is fabulous. Our favourite slingshot guy kept the pesky crows away. We had a lovely time with our family and friends from Australia. East coast of Sri Lanka is our favourite..Kalkudah did not disappoint. A little slice of paradise "

"A lovely stay at here ..room was a little far away from pool and restaurant but quiet and peaceful by the lake . Fabulous buffet -lots of variety and good quality . Sri Lankan options always best !! Efficient friendly service "

"Nice location Beautiful beach Good staff. Menu should be improved "

"Friendly staff, manager Janaka was very helpful. large property, large clean rooms, behind the hotel is the ocean, large/ clean pool. Inside is safe. Only down side was hotel not offering meals, other than breakfast. With small kids, it’s hard to look around. If I visit the area again, I would stay at this hotel again. Because of the food, I give a little low rating. "

"Excellent location. Great staff Catered to our needs with care. "

"Beautiful property with friendly and helpful staff. The food is delicious with options for all visitors. Gym had good equipment and the pool and grounds are lovely. My only suggestion would be to have an iron in all rooms it would have been helpful with my wrinkled dresses."

"This was a wonderful stay and we thoroughly enjoyed everything about the property, the staff and the trip! "

" A little oasis away from the noise and dirt of the roads"

"Property is beautiful and staff is amazing. Issue is our AC in the room broke down during the night and It didn’t come til next day 10am and it was 34 Celsius or 94 Fahrenheit . "
