Top Poddala Hotel Reviews

Riff Hikkaduwa

10/10 Excellent

"The Riff is a beautifully designed hotel, immaculately maintained and wonderfully organised. The staff are warm, friendly, and attentive, the food is absolutely delicious, and the location is perfect. We have loved our stay and can’t wait to return!"

Southbeach Weligama

8/10 Good

"Our stay was amazing, the rooftop is the best. The food is really good and prepared with care. It’s a new hotel so obviously there are teething issues like- 1-There’s a hairdryer in the bathroom but no compatible input for its plug. 2- The gym machines even though new but are not maintained or cleaned regularly. 3- The charging point behind the bed can’t be reached cause of the headboard. These can be fixed easily so other than this the rooms are spacious and spotless. Pretty kid friendly too."
