Harding Boutique Hotel

"Except for the location, there was nothing positive about this hotel. Very disappointing considering we paid $356 per night. Here are the issues we faced: 1. Bathroom door issues: The bathroom door wouldn't close properly. Despite available vacant rooms, the staff, including the manager, refused to either fix the problem or shift us. Instead, they rudely suggested a refund if we were unhappy and asked us to leave — absolutely not the service you expect at this price point. 2. Limited towels: They refused to provide more than one shower towel per person per day, which was extremely inconvenient. 3. No proper toiletries: There was no shower gel provided — only tiny hand soaps, which are usually meant for handwashing, not bathing. Very disappointing for a hotel of this category. 4. Water bottles: Although they have their own branded water bottles, they declined to provide extra water when requested. 5. Poor housekeeping: Room cleaning was extremely basic — they only made the bed and changed towels. The floor was never swept during our entire stay. 6. Hygiene issues: Shockingly, we found an underwear item from a previous guest still left inside the wardrobe. Unacceptable for any standard of hotel. 7. Hat incident and unauthorized charge attempt: They initially provided only one hat when we had booked for two. Staff argued instead of resolving the issue, and even after we explained and checked out, the hotel tried to charge our card without authorization for a non-existent missing item. 8. No staff presence after 10 PM: Unlike most hotels, there is no hotel staff available after 10:00 PM or early in the morning, making it highly inconvenient for any needs outside these hours. 9. Hidden charges: Be careful — even the basic laundry bag placed in the room costs $17."

The Sandhya

"Det er en smuk beliggenhed, og servicen er meget entusiastisk."

The Coastal Village Cabanas

"Overall, it's a good hotel with its own swimming pool. It's located between Ahangama and Koggala. There's a tuk-tuk stand right next door, which made it difficult for taxis to pick us up. The room was spacious, but the door was hard to open. The internet was terrible, practically non-existent."

Kahanda Kanda

"Beautifully designed property, great service, especially the housekeeping team."

Sri Lankan Villa

"Med venner tilbragte forårsfesten her i 2025.Hotellets geografiske beliggenhed er stadig ret god, meget tæt på havet, meget tæt på høje fangststeder og mange mennesker surfer i nærheden.Ved siden af Kataluwa togstationen, hvis du ser tiden, er det meget praktisk at tage toget til Calais, Colompo. Jeg føler mig personligt tilfreds."

Nine Palms Ahangama

"We had such an amazing stay at Nine Palms, Ahangama! Honestly, everything about this place was perfect from the moment we arrived. The hotel itself is absolutely beautiful. The design, the atmosphere, and the location right by the beach create such a relaxing vibe. It’s one of those places where you instantly feel like you’re on a proper holiday. Our room was spotless, comfortable, and beautifully designed. Everything was well maintained, and you could really see the attention to detail throughout the property. The staff were one of the best parts of our stay. Everyone was incredibly friendly, welcoming, and always happy to help with a smile. They made us feel at home and really went the extra mile to make sure we had a great experience. The food was fantastic as well. Every meal we had was fresh, delicious, and beautifully presented. Whether it was breakfast or dinner, everything tasted amazing, and we looked forward to every meal. The pool area and the beach are stunning. It was the perfect place to relax, watch the sunset, and just enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The whole property has such a calm and luxurious feel without trying too hard. What stood out the most was how everything just worked so well together—the service, the cleanliness, the atmosphere, and the overall experience. It’s rare to visit a place where you genuinely can’t find anything to complain about. If you’re planning a trip to Ahangama, I honestly can’t recommend Nine Palms enough. It’s one of the nicest places we’ve stayed in Sri Lanka, and we’d definitely love to come back. Thank you to the entire team for making our stay so memorable!"

The South - Ahangama

"Far out from any town but lovely across from the beach. Our room backed onto the train line which rocked the room and was so loud as first train at 5.30am last train 11.30pm. Room was terrible. There was dirt and debris behind the bed and under the bed. There was blood stains on pillow case, curtain and bath mats so not a happy traveller. The food was not fantastic and the wait staff were not very attentive when taking orders but swammed you as soon as you had finished for room numbers. I was definitely not impressed by this place"
