4 nights stay
“We had a wonderful stay on Sooriya Resort! Room was clean and the view from the balcony is amazing! Strong recommendation for this beautiful place. Those who are considering the location, don't worry. You can get a driver or rent a scooter or motorbike and driver yourself to near by cities or beaches. If you really want to relax, this is the place. - Posted on 3rd March 2020 ”

Great 3 night stay
“I stayed here with my girlfriend for 3 nights in Feb 2020. The hotel is located right on the beach with great views from the rooms. The location is secluded and a great place to relax.
The rooms are very clean and modern with large balconies with private sun loungers. It is possible to see turtles on the beach next to the hotel.
All of the staff are very friendly and attentive, including Bandara in the restaurant and Saman by the pool. The food was also very good and was either buffet or a la carte for dinner.
Would definitely recommend.

Amazing experience in the middle of nowhere
“Surrounded by a divine beach at Rekawa, this resort brings out the best for an affordable price. A heads up if you gonna travel in your own vehicle. if you survive driving that road what lies at the end will never make you regret. ;) This resort has 2-4 rooms with panoramic view of the nearby mangrove and the sea and they are more than happy to upgrade you depending on the room availability. Room is equipped with the essentials but nothing fancy to exaggerate on except for the view. We loved exploring nearby mangrove with the private beach and it has great sceneries for insta-worth captures. And climbing the cliff nearby and relaxing on top of that would add some vibrancy to your stay....... ....

Amazing, just amazing stay
“Liked Stay was amazing. Clean, rooms are pretty much managed properly, the staff is helping in any inquiry that they can. The swimming pool was crystal clear. Food was good, and there were enough choices, from vegetarian options to good quality continental food. Generally, it's a small oasis with all services one family may need.
Disliked Nothing much. The only thing that we found slightly intimidating was room bar inventory check, once or twice it happened that staff was checking bar inventory twice a day, which was a bit confusing. Most probably miscommunication, but I believe they will improve as they value feedback from the visitors.”

GroBartiges Hotel, perfekter Service!
“Liked - Das Sooriya liegt direkt an einer wunderschonen Bucht in der man sogar Schildkroten beobachten kann. Es hat einen tollen Pool und modern eingerichtete Zimmer. Wir hatten sogar eins mit Meerblick - unbezahlbare Aussicht! Wenige Gehminuten entfernt liegt ein Sandstrand, an dem man auf Grund des starken Wellenganges meist jedoch nicht ins Meer gehen kann. ............................. Zum Turtle Beach ist es von dort auch nicht weit an dem man nach 20.00 Uhr Meeresschildkroten beim Eierlegen beobachten kann - Ein einmaliges Erlebnis!
Wir konnen das Hotel rundum nur als sehr gut bewerten, da wir uns wie Konige gefuhlt haben. Das Personal ist wirklich sehr professionell und auberst zuvorkommend.
Andere Bewertungen, wie karges Hotel oder inkompetentes Personal konnen wir definitiv nur als falsch zuruckweisen.

Breathtaking Location
“Liked Is on a 5 star location. Access road is a bit rough, but was able to go by a car. The hotel has a rocky beach. It was nice as turtle, crabs and other animals live among these rocks. The luxury room in the 1st floor has a breath taking view in the evening and the morning. The pool is ok and depth is 4 ft. The staff was nice and friendly. Had the breakfast in the restaurant. It was tasty. There wasn't a buffet due to lack of guests. Though there were some negative as mentioned above, I would say this hotel deserves a 5 star rating due to the architecture, friendly staff, location and tasty food. Definitely will go there again if I get a chance.
Disliked Room was comfortable and clean except some towels had stains on them.”

Très bel hôtel, personnel au top !
“Un superbe hôtel isolé sur une côte déserte : idéal pour se ressourcer ou pour terminer un circuit
au Sri Lanka ! Les chambres sont très confortables et orientées face à la mer et à la piscine.
Extrêmement propre. Personnel vraiment très sympathique, chaleureux et aux petits soins
(restauration et responsable de la piscine). Nourriture variée et de qualité. Juste sur les rochers de
la plage, possibilité d’observer de nombreuses tortues marines (vers 15h en février). La plage de
Rekawa n’est pas très loin pour observer les tortues sur la plage durant la nuit. Au final, un
excellent séjour reposant dans cet hôtel.”

Wow.....what an incredible place!
“From the moment we arrived we had exceptional service. Every staff member goes out of their way to ensure your stay is as perfect as possible, the hotel is situated above the sea level with stunning views across the Indian Ocean. We had travelled down from Colombo so were hot & hungry when we arrived.
We had the lobster & chicken curry...wow! The lifeguard Saman is one of the nicest hotel employees I’ve ever met. He spoke to us about the area, told us about the beach that you can swim in, about a 45 second walk & the rocky beach where you could see the turtles feed in the afternoon...”

Amazing Experience!
“Nous avons séjourné 2 nuits et 2 jours dans cet hôtel. Les plages sont très sauvages et vous pourrez observer de magnifiques paysages ainsi qu'une faune incroyable : lézards en tout genre, tortues marines qui viennent manger les algues devant l'hôtel, oiseaux de toutes les couleurs... Le personnel est incroyable et une mention spéciale pour Bandara le barman qui est super accueillant, souriant et drôle ! ”

Very friendly place with very friendly staff
“We stayed there in January 2019. We found the hotel very relaxing and enjoyable. They have some wonderful staff who made us feel very welcome and helped us very way possible. Specially one reception staff called Rishana Sanjeewani who advised us regarding various places to see in Tangalle.She was very friendly and helpful. She comes from that place and has comprehensive knowledge of that area, hence her advice was great.”
