太差了，沒有更差，千萬別住！床單都是黑色！斯里蘭卡旅行最差的酒店！！！！

We stayed at Club Hotel Dolphin at the beginning of August 2024. Before I give a run down about our holiday, I want to say we had a great holiday, met lots of people, the staff were fabulous and we had the opportunity to visit many wonderful places around Sri Lanka. On arrival at the hotel, we were informed that our room wouldn’t be ready until 2pm which we already knew, so we had around four hours to wait (a very long time when your journey has been around 14 hrs!). Although we already knew this, we were disappointed to find out later in our holiday that our room had been empty for over 24hrs before our arrival, so feel that, knowing guests were arriving, it could have been ready for our arrival time. When we were finally given our room key, we entered to find out that a bed had not been prepared for our son. This was sorted within an hour, but in actual fact, given the time they had in preparing our room it should have been in place from the outset. Our two older children, who had a separate room, were given a king size bed to share and despite asking for separate beds, when they got their key, the beds were pushed together to make one, so they had to rearrange the furniture themselves. Their rooms were quite a distance from ours and I feel this could have been managed better, especially as I had previously emailed the hotel to request that the rooms be near each other as both older children are diagnosed with autism. Two hours after we had been given our rooms, our luggage had not arrived and we had to telephone to request it being brought to us. We would have been more than happy to transport it ourselves, but were informed that it would be brought to us. Due to this, our youngest son burned quite badly as we hadn’t anticipated how strong the sun was with it being an overcast day. This was totally our fault as we hadn’t put any sun cream in our hand luggage – we always put swimming costumes and a change of clothes in hand luggage, just in case our cases get lost with the change of aeroplane on a long haul holiday. Food There was a wide selection of food available everyday in the main restaurant. Most of the food was spiced, so if you’re a fussy eater, you will struggle. There was always plain boiled rice, a wide selection of curry (for breakfast, lunch and evening), different breads, one potato option (never fries) and options for different fish and meat, usually cooked in some sort of sauce. During the evening, the ‘cold’ room would have a selection of salads (this was never open during lunch). The cold meats and cheeses available at breakfast were never available any other time of the day, which was a shame. The deserts were always available and varied day to day. The ‘snack bar’ was okay, but there was always a wait for food as it needed to be ordered. There had been other guests who had experienced ‘microwaved’ food, so I would recommend checking food has been freshly cooked. The hotel advertised afternoon tea, but this was not rea

Great hotel with awesome staff and facilities. Everone including housekeeping staff, waiters and restaurant staff went out of their way to make our stay comfortable and memorable. Food is exceptional, with so much choice and lots of fantastic Sri Lankan dishes. Hats off to the fabulous Animators at the hotel, who are an absolute delight and a super talented bunch. Special mentions to the super talented and charismatic Thari, who made an incredible coconut palm hat for my wife and Kalindu Sri Dewapriya for simply being you and warmly welcoming us to the hotel and making us feel at home, as well as all the other animators. For excursions I would highly recommend See Lanka Travels and the amazing Nipun F’do. What a guy, he is a man of his word and puts you at ease right from the start and truly delivers with tailor made tours with exceptionally friendly tour guides and drivers

Currently at the hotel and it has exceeded my expectations. We arrived after a long flight at 5.00 am in the morning. We were disappointed that we were not offered a welcome drink and that checking seemed to take ages. This was soon forgotten as we were shown to a sea villa rooms. The photos attach show how amazing the location is. All staff are super friendly in the hotel. There is a very relaxing feel to the hotel. Always plenty of sun loungers and the main pool is lovely. Towels are provided .We have not used the adult only pool as the main pool was so good. The food is mainly Sri Lankan, salads , curry’s and a little European food.. The main dining room can get busy, however never short of food. The food is very fresh. We ate in the waves restaurant which was superb. The spa is the best. Massages are amazing and so reasonably priced. The hotel is well located for trips, The hotel will Always provide breakfast boxes you can take with you. Definitely an amazing holiday. If you are coming to this part of Sri Lanka this hotel is a must. We are a family of 4 adults and our children had an amazing time too ….

Our group of 50+ had a fantastic two-night stay at Club Hotel Dolphin. The food was delicious with a great variety, and the rooms were exceptionally clean and spacious. The attractive environment and the largest pool area were perfect for our needs. Mr.Arun organized fun games and activities that kept us entertained throughout our stay. We appreciate all the arrangements made by Mr. Jayarathne and Mr. Lakmal. The entire staff was incredibly kind and provided excellent service. Thank you, Club Dolphin team, for a wonderful experience!

Our stay at Club Hotel Dolphin was outstanding! Mr. Mahinda Fernando and Anjela made us feel right at home. They even arranged a surprise birthday celebration, which was unforgettable. The hotel's stunning location was perfect for our photoshoot. Excellent service and beautiful surroundings—we can't wait to return!
