"A perfect place for budget conscious travellers who want to laze on a beautiful beach and watch the fishermen haul in their nets each day. Clean clear water and white sand. Easy to organise a snorkeling trip too."
"We arrived late at 02:00am.
Guard welcomed us and took us to the room.
We've got a bigger room since our was occupied.
Generally, nice and clean place but far from every thing in Trincomalee.
I wouldn't recommend to stay in any hotel in the city, go for the beach hotels.
What you will save on hotel in the city, you will spend on Tuk-tuks there and back."
"Excellent central location for exploring central Trincolomee. Well-managed and friendly, accommodating staff. Make sure to request a room with hot water and AC as not all rooms are the same. Of note, the hotel is currently in the process of adding another floor. Once completed, there will be some nice city views from the top floor rooms."
"Friendly, kind staff, very helpful, family run, always ready to meet the needs. Large rooms with patio that leads to the tropical garden, close to the beautiful beach of Nilaveli Beach.Highly recommended"
"Enjoyed the view from the top floor. Room was okay. No view. Had no water for 15 minutes while showering. Water pressure was apparently shut off which they fixed. Great location to get into the city. Beautiful temple right outside. "

"Rooms were clean and comfortable with a spacious bathroom. Dining buffets were diverse and the staff were excellent and hospitable. Beach acces was spectacular. The pool was good but a little to shallow for me. The one thing put me a little off was that they provide driver accommodation but the driver accommodation was poor at best. My driver reported the A/C had been removed and the fans were sub par that they had to put buckets of cool water to keep the room cool enough to sleep. In the heat of Sri Lanka, I would not have put my driver in such accommodation."
