Citrus Hikkaduwa

This hotel is the worst welcoming I’ve ever experienced. I never complain. I was appalled by the welcome which was an interrogation. I was then greeted by the police which was a bill I did not sign for. Was threatened with jail on the spot. I thought I was in a movie. DO NOT BOOK OR STAY HERE. AWFUL JUST AWFUL!!

Тихо, спокойно, есть что позавтракать. Убирают хорошо. Влажность. Громкий кондиционер. Милый персонал

I was unsure about this hotel after reading some of the reviews, but I have to say it was unfounded. We stayed in a deluxe sea view room on the 3rd floor. From the minute of our arrival we felt very welcome. We were greeted with a refreshing drink and didn’t have long to wait for our rooms. The hotel is in a beautiful setting on the beach and with plenty of bars and restaurants outside on the road in both directions. We stayed on an all inclusive basis and found the food very good with plenty of choice. We did eat out nearby also on occasion. Yes the hotel could do with a little updating in particular the rooms and pool. However there were works being carried out whilst we were there and I believe they were closing in April to carry out more. Saying this however everywhere was miticulously clean. Only issue we found with our room was storage. There was a lovely wardrobe area, but the room could do with some drawers. There wasn’t many coat hangars but we just asked our room boy and he got us more. The staff at this hotel really make it. Every one of them with a smile on their face and very helpful. They make it 5 stars! Three of the staff in particular made our holiday. Nuwan who within minutes of our arrival spoke to management in order for me to have coke zero (I am diabetic) included in our all inclusive (as it isn’t normally) which was above and beyond. He also looked after us on many occasions in the restaurant. Also Chinthaka and Sanjeewa who again looked after us, always having a table ready for us every meal time. All were a pleasure and we had some great chats with them. They are a credit to the hotel. Our room boy (can’t remember his name) left our room clean and with great towel art every day, thank you. Also a special mention to management, who on Independence Day made us feel so included in your celebrations. We really enjoyed it, especially the tea . A big thank you to you all and your staff. Would I stay again? Without a doubt. Not at hotel but if you want a great guide in Sri Lanka contact Charu Tours - Sri Lanka on Facebook. Best you can get
