Cinnamon Hotels & Resorts in Somawathie Chaitiya Sanctuary from AU$11

Absolutely amazing experience

Amazing hotel with amazing facilities and staff. Loved the snorkelling and buffets. The rooms were comfortable and clean. We will return.

Words can't explain how amazing this resort is. My partner and I have worked in five star hotels,resorts and leading airlines around the world and have worked as an LQA inspector. From the moment we stepped in the attention to detail was on point. The service, the food and drinks, the rooms, pool and beach were all emaculate. The team that work here were helpful and profesional, they were down to earth and truly hospitable people, everyone from the porter to the bartender to the gardeners were...

Absolutely perfect. I could not have found a better host anywhere. The room is clean and lovely. The garden is beautiful. The breakfast are just delicious. Mother is a really good cook and I had the best vegetable roll and potato and egg samosa i have tried anywhere. The host made us so welcome and helped us with everything. He did all the hard work for us! The driver is lovely too. I feel privileged to stay here and regret I cannot stay longer

Everything was good with this hotel. Very helpful staff at reception. Thank you to reception staff for being so helpful when offering us a doctor in the town. Food was good. Very nice hotel. Great place to relax.

This place is amazing if you like peace and quiet. Service is excellent and close enough by tuk tuk to everything. Would definitely recommend this hotel and would love to come back again

This was the nicest place we stayed at, with beautiful views, comfortable and spacious rooms and a great pool. Staff were also very friendly and also up for a chat (good at English also). Breakfast buffet was great, with the option of Sri Lankan food and a chef on-hand to make waffles or omelettes. Reasonable price - the breakfast buffet was well worth it. We only stayed one night but could easily have done another. With not much else going on in Kalkudah, more than a couple of days here...

Fantastic place and location

We felt instantly relaxed and welcomed upon arrival. The grounds and pool are beautiful. Room was spacious and immaculate, we loved the variety of loose leaf teas in our room and delicious homemade biscuits that were replenished. The staff were the most attentive in our whole time in Sri Lanka. Things like coming with umbrellas on arrival to our car so we didn’t get wet, guiding us with a light to and from the dining area to our room each night, speaking to us about our travels and offering to...

Pros: close to the beach and has a pool, good buffet breakfast, good room size and comfort Cons: dinner service was terrible- the staff lurk constantly, one male worker spent staring at myself (a young girl) for 30min plus and was not discouraged by my obvious annoyance. The staff have very limited English.

We greatly enjoyed our stay at this Resort. It was right on the beach, the room was beautiful, and the staff amazingly helpful. There did seem to be an everlasting towel shortage while we were there but the staff were friendly and helpful in ensuring this caused as little inconvenience as possible. I would highly recommend getting a ground level beach facing room!

Booked a Deluxe room in Jan'18 and was pleasantly surprised not only with the luxuroius room & fittings but to cap it all we had our own private steps down to the pool that wa one of the best we used. The staff were extremely professional & would go out of their way to assist or make your stay more comfortable, the food was excellent with such great variety- overall a 5 star & more resort on a beach

Dambulla cave Beautiful

Great location. Tuk Tuk to ruins. Great hosts. New and clean accommodation with upper levels under construction. Sri Lankan food excellent, large servings and great value. Recommend.

Enjoyed the buffet dinners of home cooked Sri Lankan curries. Staff were very helpful and friendly. Pool is great.

We booked this hotel specifically for the ocean view, paid extra for the privilege but were given a room with no view. We asked for the room to be changed as we had paid for "Ocean View". We were told they were fully booked and were unable to change rooms until the following day. We were then shown the room that we were to have. The following day we were moved, but to another room with a partial "Ocean view". None of the rooms had "Ocean views and their website has since been changed to reflect...

We loved Passi Villas- it’s very quiet, pool was great and food was great. We had half board with fresh pastries fruit and eggs for breakfast and for dinner a 3-4 course meal- I had the fish every night which was different daily The management leave you alone and you have the manager’s phone number if you need anything urgently. In the morning I would talk to the chef about what we would like for dinner- so very personal service. If you don’t like peace and quiet then you won’t like this place-...
