"I recently visited Colombo for 5 days in October 2025 and stayed at 50 by the Sea - Had an excellent stay there and all my expectations were met - at times went above the expectations also. The apartment looks very new, is very well maintained and most importantly, its extremely clean. Ive visited Colombo many times and many times, I faced the issue of not so clean bathrooms at some residences - at 50 by the Sea, the bathrooms were so clean and neat that it looked like a 5 star hotel's...

"Great location, helpful staff, nice variety of food options. The spa services are great as well.
The gym could use some upgrades. I’d stay there again!"

"We walked in an apartment with dust and dirt on the floor, mould behind toilet door, mould on kitchen glass tray. They said this apartment was closed for some time. Housekeeping staff should be trained to check on details. Would not recommend for families who are particular about cleanliness. The management needs to take feedback seriously without giving excuses for lapses."

"Our recent stay at this peaceful oasis in Colombo was nothing short of delightful.
From the moment we arrived, we were welcomed with warmth and kindness by the incredible staff - especially Samantha, who went above and beyond to make our stay extra special.
The serene ambiance, coupled with a beautifully maintained pool, made for the perfect escape from the city's hustle.
Whether it was lounging by the water or indulging in the delicious food, every moment felt like a refreshing retreat....

"On a adoré notre séjour à Anam Hôtel ! On y a passé 10 jours. On a pu se reposer. L’hôtel se situe à quelques mètres de la plage, où on peut y voir des magnifiques coucher de soleil le soir. Le personnel de l’hôtel est juste super super gentil. Il y a une cuisine que l’on peut utiliser, mais aussi une machine à laver dont on peut se servir. Allez-y les yeux fermés, vous ne regretterez rien."

The apartment looks very new, is very well maintained and most importantly, its extremely clean. Ive visited Colombo many times and many times, I faced the issue of not so clean bathrooms at some residences - at 50 by the Sea, the bathrooms were so clean and neat that it looked like a 5 star hotel's washroom ( I am from luxury hospitality background, so I can assure you of this high, comparable quality at this place ) - The staff were extremely polite and helpful - I had a few encounters with their housekeeping team and security team - very warm, friendly and helpful. I requested for a few things during my stay and got immediate assistance. The Reservations Manager, Ms Shehara is very kind & approachable - she would often call me to check how I was doing and if everything was ok .
The rooms are good in size for single travelers and couples - overlooking the Mt Lavinia beach and beautiful sea view.
Any drawbacks ? Well, depending on what you are looking for :
* The facility doesn't have its own dining outlet - which is not a big issue as there are many outlets nearby , walking distance.
* The accommodation is very close to the Mt Lavinia Railway track so there is plenty of noise - may disturb some and some may find it hard to sleep - for me it was not a big issue "
Charming 3-Bedroom Apartment on the Beach-side with AC and WiFi in Mount Lavinia
10/10 Excellent
"We had a wonderful stay at the apartment for a week. The location was so convenient and had a variety of restaurants nearby. Rooms were spacious and had AC's. Mr. Daboo (the apartment manager) was very helpful and available at all times. It was a delightful stay and looking forward to book the premises next year for another visit. Overall 5 stars .....!!!!"
