Hotel Goldi Sands Holiday Reviews

Hotel Goldi Sands

“Staff made you very welcome and could not do enough for you. Would denfinately go back. Trips to Candi and River trips very informative and we organised and we made lots of new friends. A very relaxing fantastic holiday. more “

“I read quite a few reviews of this hotel before I travelled and arrived with an open mind. Lets get one or two things straight to start with- this is Sri Lanka so you will get Sri Lankan food. This is not a 5* hotel so the accommodation is not 5*. The food though is equally as good as some”

“We stayed at Goldi Sands from 13th April to 26th April this year and had a wonerful time. Upon arriving i thought the hotel looked a bit tired. But soon came to the conclusion it must have been me that was tired. The food choices were varied and delicious with different themed menus every day. The pool is brand new”

“For the all inclusive (£600 each) fortnight it was great. Nice pool friendly helpful staff internet access etc. I think visitors who sign up to visit should be prepared to be flexible and accept local values are different. You only need to walk outside the hotel and look at some of the nearby homes and shops to realise the contrast…. “

“We stayed at Goldi Sands 7 -21 April 2009. and found it to be a lovely hotel to stay at all the staff and Managers were very friendly nothing was too much trouble if you had a problem it was sorted out immediately. The location was good I was a bit dissapointed that the sea was too rough to swim in”

“Overall a ‘very good’ hotel but a problem with my computer or the site (not sure which) means I can’t seem to using the ratings unless I want to rate everything excellent. Staff were always very friendly. Rooms variable – some with fridge others not; some with dodgy old system that they seem to think passes as ‘air conditioning’ but”

“I stayed at the Goldi Sands from 12 April until the 28th with my wife and extended family. I must say that we were really weell taken care of. We had elderly people in our party and also various dietary needs including a vegan and the hotel really went out of their way to make sure everyone was catered for”

“Stayed here all inclusive for 2 weeks.Thoroughly enjoyed the holiday would certainly return.Word of warning the rooms are a little dated but are cleaned daily.Staff are brilliant food excellent.Right on the beach but not too bothered by the hawkers.Swimming pool was very good and there was plenty of sunbeds to go round.All in all excellent value for money.Dont expect too much in the way”

“We were meeted at the airport by the guide and he broughs us to this hotel so we didn’t know where we were going. The hotel is 2-3* at it’s best. Location – not far from the airport (15-20 min) right on the large beach. Beach – large strip of the beach dark yellow brown sand. The sea has a”

“The rooms are basic but cleaned daily. Towels changed daily at first they were a thin dull white/grey in colour but on request we were then supplied with sets of blue fluffy towels for the rest of our stay. The selection of food for breakfast lunch and dinner plus the bar snacks were not as vast as our previous all”

Horathapola Coconut Estate Hotel Holiday Reviews

Horathapola Coconut Estate Hotel

“Kate at Fleewinter highly recommended this place as a good place to spend our first evening in Sri Lanka en route to our first proper stop. Boy was she right! The house is spectacular and our room was absolutely wonderful. We were the only people there at the time so we had the entire place to ourselves. Pia (the owner)”

“An hour or so’s drive from Columbo airport this place is a working coconut estate albeit at a subdued level. It a large colonial house that has four letting rooms and caters for the mid to upper market tourist. It is a delightfully tranquil place and an excellent way to start a holiday in Sri Lanka being quiet and peaceful…. “

“What a fantastic start to our stay in Sri Lanka! We arrived pretty dazed after a long journey only to feel relaxed almost immediately. We were made to feel very welcome and nothing was too much trouble. We were the only guests there which was great as we had the pool and Joseph (butler) to ourselves. The food was probably”

“We booked Horathapola through Experience Sri Lanka and it was the perfect place to start our trip. When we arrived at the airport we were picked up by someone who didnt speak English which didnt bode well but when we arrived at the estate Pia welcomed us and it really felt like we had arrived at an old collonial home…. “

“My husband and I spent 2 nights here in December at the start of our 16 day holiday.We booked via Fleewinter . The room was huge and the views amazing .Everthing about the place was done with such care and love by Pia and her husband(and thier daughter -the little horror!). Little soaps in the bathroom each hand written to”

“Based on the previously posted reviews of Horathapola we were greatly looking forward to staying there on our recent trip tio Sri Lanka. Horathapola was adequate at best but certainly not up to the caliber of the other hotels that we stayed at in Sri Lanka. I found Pia (the owner) to be quite cold and the service indifferent. The”

“I do so agree with the previous reviews but wanted to add my voice. After the long flight from the UK this was the perfect place to begin our Sri Lankan adventure… we swam in their lovely pool in the warm rain… and found towels had appeared as if by magic when we stepped out. Food and service are excellent…. “

“This is a unique place – far more interesting (and relaxing) than staying in Colombo (it’s only an hour from the airport so a perfect place to begin or end your holiday). In the middle of a coconut plantation the 1920s building is gorgeous and full of beautiful antiques the rooms are huge and the pool is the best we”

“I can’t add much to the first review of this beautiful small hotel. Except there are now 4 rooms! Everything about the place is lovely. The service is caring homely and professional. The food just fantastic. We honestly felt like we staying in our own villa. I can’t praise the place highly enough and if you read the guest book”

“The drive from Colombo Airport gives a real insight on how to drive or should I say survive driving in Sri Lanka. The roads are very crowded and it is a case of the biggest vehicle with the loudest horn who survives. Arriving at Horathapola Estate however makes the ordeal well worthwhile. The estate is a working coconut plantation and”

“Only a few minutes by taxi from the airport. Large rooms basic but clean. Large shower rooms and hot water too!! Lovely staff at the pool and restaurant thought the reception staff could use a lesson in customer service. As with most Sri Lankan hotels the Golden Star is getting a bit rough around the edges but set right on”

“Our recent 16 day holiday was spent entirely at this hotel. Staff very friendly and couldnt’ do enough for us. I wanted a tv in my room and they supplied me with one. Beach very clean and the food was excellant. We used the hotel transport to go on tours. We used the local supermarket to do our shopping. Everything”

“For US$26 in Sri Lanka this should be a lot better. The room was damp the bed and furniture old and damaged the mattress very thin there were gaps around the french window so mozzies came in the door bolt was missing and the aircon vent was broken so I had to jam it in place with a matchbox. This”

“I stayed here in 2003 and was my 1st time Asia. The hotel is simple but the staff is very kind. Great drinks for small prices. The rooms are ok not realy up to date bute clean shower/toilet and AC and very spacious. They have there own beach lot with guards in the rainy season although it is not possible”

Camelot Beach Hotel

“I stayed at Camelot Beach Hotel for just 1 night. After a long flight from Melbourne Australia I was delighted with the room it was clean fresh and very comfortable. The balcony had good views of the beach as well. I found the staff to be friendly and oblighing. The local food was also freshly prepared and delicious. Definately good”

“it was my first visit to srilanka didnt expect much out of it but once i entered camelot my way of thinking changed completely. every thing was superb. specially the food and the hospitalilty. i was there all alone but enjoyed my stay and didnt feel alone for a sec. the staff was really friendly. the pool was a good”

“we asked for a room on the ground floor after a little delay it was made available the room was basic and our bathroom was very small and very dated no tv or fridge so no news for our stay the newly refurbished shower/toilet in some rooms are modern but still very small (no bath). the pop music played by the”

“CBH is my choice when it comes to staying in Negombo at low prices but still getting good quality for money. The hotel grounds are excellent with two well maintained pools and sunbeds in a nice setting surrounded by shading palm trees. The rooms are OK well maintained and has nice balconies overlooking the pool are and the sea. A”

“If you think of Sri Lanka one thinks of white beaches palm trees blue ocean en serenity. Bot not in Camelot. Sure the beach is white the indian ocean blue and there are loads of palm trees. But there was also this 24/7 noise of bad popmusic in the open air bar and badly attempted amusement (magician show disco etc.)…. “

“Despite being a relatively modern hotel with two nice swimming pools it is not the place to stay if you wish a relaxing beach holiday. The reason is that music (mostly country and western) is blaring all the time and there is nowhere near the pools or on the grounds where you can escape it for reading or relaxing. Even”

“During our 13th visit to Sri Lanka we stayed at the Camelot for the 1st time. It is a rather small hotel but with very friendly staff. The rooms are okay though the bathroom could do better. The toilet seat made out of wood is very uncomfortable(square).The surroundings are very pretty and the hotel and grounds are exceptionally well maintained…. “

“We stayed at Browns Beach for two weeks on an all inclusive basis at the end of April/beginning of May. We were a little apprehensive about the hotel after reading the reviews on here but had a wonderful stay. The reception staff were very welcoming and showed us to our room which was quite basic but had a lovely view”

“Staff at Browns Beach I have to say were very very helpful happy and friendly with the exception of most of the “front desk” staff. There I’m afraid is where all positive comments end. We stayed in a damp smelling beach hut/chalet with the dirtiest bed side rugs ever seen. The bathroom had only partly been tiled the shower holder “

“Have stayed at this hotel many times but restaurent service has declined. Little attention to detail. Tables not cleared. ‘Hot’ buffet food often cold. Frequently run out of essential items – no coffee for 45 minutes one morning. Staff not bothered. General manager shows no interest. Wine watered down one evening. Very loud music in beach bar at night. TV”

“We upgraded to beach room when we arrived as standard rooms are very tired dirty and pillows and mattress disgusting!! Food at the Hotel not to bad we ate at Coconut Primitive accross the road most nights (great service from Calum) very cheap. Beach sellers a real pain Staff at Browns Beach are superb they are always smiling and extremely”

“We stayed at this so called Browns Beach “Guest House” in Negombo in the beginning of this month and had one of the most awful holidays ever for ourselves. Though the location is perfect the guest rooms and the public guests contacts were not really acceptable for a hotel. They have their own Housekeeping Manager who do not even bother”

“We stayed at this hotel in May 2008 for 12 nights. When we arrived the check in was good and quick given a cold dink and then shown to our rooms. Disappointed with the first room as very basic and in need of updating. We were then shown another room and was slighlty better. The following day we upgraded to”

“After reading some of the reviews on here I was a little wary however for anyone considering booking this hotel go ahead it is just fine. We stayed in the Beach Bungalow rooms and they are perfect – modern furnishings very clean and a beautiful location. They have there own sun loungers outside and chairs and table on your”

“We have just returned from our 9days holiday in Browns Beach Hotel. From our travel agency we had paid for a Standard room in the main building. As I have read the reviews on this page I expected it a bit but to be honest it was really disaster – I would never take a shower in the bathroom of”

“We spent 2 weeks at Browns Beach in March 09 The hotel was so convenient for the airport because after a 10 -11 hour flight we didn’t want a long transfer. We thoroughly enjoyed everything about our stay from the lovely beach to the calm warm sea. The staff were very friendly and helpful and we met some really nice”

“I am writing on behalf of my sister who stayed at Browns Beach last year and had a fantastic time. So much so I went back with her this year to Sri Lanka we were lucky to contact Prince Perrera who my sister had met last year he has a mini bus recommended by the hotel and is extremely helpful “

“Evening meal ok breakfast poor (under cooked omlette’s) Spacious room but a little dated reasonably clean. Nice spot on the beach but unfortunately plagued by people selling items like many beach resorts. more “

“We had a fantastic 2 wk holiday in Sri Lanka. We travelled around meeting some very friendly and helpful sri lankans staying in really interesting and beautiful hotels….this was not one of these and completely spoilt the last night of our trip. The hotel is dated.The service was the worst we experienced -the staff were falsely charming in anticipation of”

“The Negombo coastline has a large number of o.k. hotels including just one of 5 star rating which happens to be next door to the Blue Oceanic. However the latter stands out from all others because of facilities and service as you would expect combined with affordability. My first visit to the country dates from 1973 and many hotels have”

“Pretty average beash resort hotel. Good location for a one night stopover to/from airport (15minutes away) but quite overpriced for what you get in comparison to all other hotels i stayed in in Sri Lanka. Rooms fairly drab staff moderately friendly. Main clientele seem to be older Germans and Russians. Food was quite nice and good choice. Rest take it”

“Me and my husband didn’t stay at the Jetwing Blue Oceanic instead we stayed at the Jetwing BEach which was a fantastic hotel and highly recommend it. HOwever during our very short 4 day trip to Negombo we decided to eat at the Blue Oceanic hotel beach restaurant just by the pool and ordered what we thought would be a”

“Like lots of hotels in Sri Lanka the rooms look very old and not well maintained. Otherwise this hotel is all right if you need to go to the airport or if your flight arrives during the night; The hotel is situated in 15 minutes driving from the airport. Restaurants: average buffet Drinks: better to find some local bars in”

“After 12 days touring the country and seeing so many amazing things it was nice to just kick back and relax on a comfy bed with 50 TV channels!! Decent sized balcony with a view of the sea. Perfect to while away the afternoon reading a book. I was half board and the breakfast was excellent buffet with fruit breads”

“This is a super hotel the staff really make your holiday a real pleasure. It was my second stay in the hotel must say it was hard to say goodbye to a few of them. Clean food plenty tasty and very friendly people good entertainment. For my birthday they arranged a cake and I received a few presents from a”

“Apart from the rooms being a bit dated the hotel could not be faulted. The rooms are very spacious The staff were very polite and could not do enough to help us. A nice touch was every night a roomboy came to turn the bedsheet corner over place a flower on each pillow and sprayed the room for mossies We”

“Nice Hotel Staff was pleasant and receptive… The breakfast bar I enjoyed immensely. The rooms are clean and basic. There was only one issue with an electrical port with a TV that was iffy but help came and it worked fine so thats nothing really. There are nice balcony areas where fresh ocean breezes can fill the room. Though as”
