Mattakkuliya Holidays

The place was nice and quiet staff very helpful easy to walk around

Nice experience. Friendly staff but the rooms could use some maintenance!

5 star view of the ocean, 3.5 star room, 2 star service from the staff. Stayed for 4 nights, first day was ruined due to being given a sub standard room. After complaining to the supervisor, we were given a nicer room with a beautiful view of the pool/ocean - but the room felt more like 3.5 star - nothing special, No mini bar and room was outdated. Paid nearly $200/night, not worth the price. Breakfast was the same for all 4 days of our stay. Also, felt that people of color are treated differently and raised this with the supervisor. The arrogant male staff in particular at front desk, restaurant and pool area need to be trained properly. This was raised with the supervisor.. Note that an additional 10% service charge, 18% VAT is added to food/beverage/spa.

Beautiful property on the outskirts of Negombo in a very peaceful calm location. Perfect for resting after a long flight of from some quiet away from the hustle and bustle of the beach properties. There are only 5 rooms. We had room 2 which is a beautiful heritage room in the original house. Breakfast is delicious. Lovely varied menu. Dinner is also good but note that the prices here are in USD and pricier than in town. Few things I didn’t like so much 1. There is no driver or tuk tuks nearby so we had to reply on the unreliable uber app to get into town. It’s about 20 mins and between 600-1000 in a tuk tuk. 2. The water in the bathroom is scalding hot. I burned myself a little the first night so it would be good if the hotel could add a warning sign somewhere. 3. There are no suggested tours or guides from the property. It would be good if the hotel could perhaps have a few suggestions on hand to avoid trawling through Expedia, get your guide etc. other than this I think our stay was pretty perfect.
