"Booked this hotel through Expedia prior to my trip, when I landed in Colombo I received a text message from a French (+33) number saying that my booking at The Coconut would be cancelled, and that the prices I had booked were no longer valid! My only choices were to cancel the booking or pay the "new prices" which were 3x higher! I ended up saying I didn't want the booking and found other accommodations. I actually went to the hotel during my trip where the front desk person was frustrated...

"**"Conveniently Located with a Few Perks (and Some Room for Improvement)"** Looking for a spot close to the surf? 🏄‍♂️ This place is a winner! Conveniently located on the main street where all the action is, with street parking right by the boundary wall—super easy! 🚗 The rooms are clean, though the linens and toiletries could use a little upgrade. But the real MVP? Indaka, the super friendly and helpful staff member. Perfect if you're into surfing or swimming at the nearby sea! ….a walk on...

"There was a problem with our reservation as apparently hotels.com bookings do not transfer over to the hotels system and therefore they had no record of our booking. This meant that they did not have the rooms that we had booked available. The hotel owner/manager was very helpful in finding us different rooms but these were not what had been reserved and meant that we had to separate family members which was not ideal for a week.

Top Mahakalugolla Hotel Reviews

Paddyway Resort

10/10 Excellent

"Great hotel in Arugam Bay but what makes it memorable is Subu and his staff. Every request is quickly dealt with and no matter how busy the are, Subu always has time to have a little chat. The hotel is finishing the renovations so our room was missing a few things but it didn't matter at all because you're just taken by the laid back atmosphere of the place. Subu arranged the surf lessons with Sawmy and that was a great experience too. I would definitely recommend the hotel"
