Top Uppuveli Hotel Reviews
Nilaveli Beach Hotel
"Well maintained property, the pool was clean and pleasant. The staff was very helpful - I asked for an extra blanket and it was delivered to my room within minutes! The food is delicious and the selection is excellent - the evening buffet outside was magical!!"
C Beyond Nilaveli
"We had such an amazing time staying at CBeyond Nilaveli. The hotel has the most beautiful location on a virgin, pristine beach, and the food was excellent, especially breakfast and dinner. The Sri Lankan fish for two was the best fish weโve ever tried. The service was always so kind and helpful. Such a paradise."
Havana Club Resort
"The room was clean, but the bathroom was not. The room was not cleaned during the week except once on request. Hence, the bathroom had an unpleasant odor. The shower door could not be closed. The whole building needs an uplift. Looks old, and not as attractive as the other hotels. Pool was good and clean. Staff were very obliging and helpful. Nothing was too hard for them."
Amaranthe Bay
"Amaranthe Bay is a super nice hotel, the rooms are very spacious, clean and well maintained. The location is great and the staff are super friendly and knowledgeable. The guests relations executive, Sri Mayuran, was super nice, helpful and friendly, he made our stay that much better. Also, great thanks to the chef who cooked the fish we fished for us :) it was an awesome gesture."
