5-Star Hotels in Eastern Province, Sri Lanka

Booked two king size ocean rooms for our 4 days 3 night stay at Trinco Blu, was pleasant by the hotel beach front location and blue/white theme. we arrived in at 3am of our check in date, reception staff was helpful and quick to plan alternative rooms for us at additional costs, our pre-booked rooms were given to us the same day after. the hotel is truly beach front with beautiful sands and decorated surroundings, pool is attractive and rooms are spacious and we'll kept, amenities complete. the only draw back is the shower area tends to clog up every time and we are left with a small pool of flood, housekeeping takes time and there is only one restaurant within the compound serving food, good thing there is a long street of restaurants outside it's compound which is great to explore. staff are friendly and pleasant all around, and we do enjoy the clam and peaceful quietness of the whole place even though it's fully booked. Trinco Blu is a place i will recommend for those who wants time away from bustling cities, go for full or half board package if you want to recluse yourself if not venture out for a little local life traits. there are ample sights and things to do around this city, you can lost yourself in time here with a lover, a good book or just your thoughts. nothing happening much at night so it's always early sleep and early wake but the routine is good for the soul and rest for the heart.

Very nice hotel, perfect for truly unwinding. Unfortunately, the beach isn't suitable for swimming as it's full of stones and coral. The food is very good and the rooms are huge. The service is pretty mediocre, though. Even though we were asked via WhatsApp the day before about our arrival time and bed preference, neither was taken into account. We had to wait an hour even though check-in was officially from 2 PM. Instead of a shared bed, we got two single beds. They really could have saved themselves the trouble of asking. Otherwise, everything else was great.

The reception was warm and welcoming, and the staff were incredibly friendly, attentive, and genuinely caring throughout our stay. The room was beautifully spacious and comfortable, creating a very relaxing atmosphere. We stayed in an ocean-view bungalow, which added a wonderful sense of luxury and made the experience feel truly special. The amenities were excellent, with a wide range of thoughtful touches that made everything even more enjoyable. This place is a perfect getaway for anyone looking to relax and unwind. We highly recommend it – without a doubt the best accommodation in the area.

The hotel looks very primising in the pictures, beautiful setting and facilities. Unfortunately we were a bit disqppointed on the way it is managed. It looks like the place is abandoned relying on its own structure and pictures. Pros: - beautiful setting and location, in front of a beautiful beach. - rooms are well done, big bathrooms, nice outdoor area. - faclities have a beautiful decoration, the bar, the restaurant. Cons: - cleaning! The resort has a cleaning issue. To the point that we wrote ”clean me” with our fingers on the restaurant toilet mirror, and it was there during our entire stay. Nothing has regular cleaning, spots everywhere, toilets are terrible specialy the poil toilet (see pictures). - bar drinks are not good. We tried many drinks and juices in all the hotels we stayed in Sri Lanka, and this one we had to give up, drink after drink, juice after juice, were not good at all. Also the drink glasse come very very dirty. - bar is beautiful but never had any music during our stay. Its a silent empty place, no one uses it... and the bartender usualy is not there which makes it a ghost place. - service is welcoming but not prepared. For example before you reach the breakfast area upstairs they ask you: ”what do you want for breakfast? So i dont have to go upstairs to ask”, overall staff is tired, not motivated and have no training, they are as abandoned as the hotel. - spa was closed during our entire stay, because the lady had days off. So we booked a hotel with a Spa that did not exist...you have to be lucky not to book on her days off. - when at check-out i tried to tell them the place have lots of potential but they need to pay attention to this details they just replied: thank you for your stay, please make us a review on tripadvisor! So they just don't pay attention... which is sad to see. I wish they could change the management and have someone motivated and energic to transform the place into the best hotel in Sri Lanka, because they could be.

Maldives in Sri Lanka. The sea absolutely beautiful and I enjoyed so much the walking on the endless beach. The staff is amazing , made my solo trip so rich of memories and extra care, done multiple activities and I recommend the dinner in the cellar as they have the best cellar in Sri Lanka , and also a must the dinner on the platform in the middle of the sea! A big thanks for the unforgettable memories , they made me live a dream

酒店十分漂亮好看，整體體驗超好，十分喜歡躺屍安靜的人，但位置離亭可較遠，我們是自己開車去的，不開車感覺不是很方便

Beautifully located right by the sea. If you don't like sandy feet, this isn't the place for you, as the entire courtyard and pool area are covered in fine white sand. The staff are very friendly and accommodating. The rooms are functional and clean. The bathroom is very spacious, with a large shower, double vanity, and a bathtub. The breakfast and lunch buffets are delicious, with everything your heart could desire. Would definitely come back anytime!

A big hotel! We were there out of season. But we were lucky with the weather. We got a big room, but at the end of the building and our 'supposedly' balcony consisted of two chairs on a dirty piece of concrete, behind the beach toilet. Since we stayed for 2 nights, we didn't complain. First they put two towels - we had to ask for the rest. The breakfasts are good, since there are a lot of package tourists, then having lunch in the restaurant for independent tourists is a whole adventure - a separate order confuses the staff and the wait is super long. We did not find any entertainment in the hotel in the evenings. And there is nothing in the area. There is 1 restaurant within walking distance (3+) and that's it. If we came here for more than a couple of nights, I would be upset - honestly. And we were by car, we could have driven ourselves at least to the supermarket. Do not get a hookah in the hotel - it is terrible.

Excellent hotel. Stilt, clean, well equipped room. There are all necessary: refrigerator, tea, coffee, teapot, fan. Daily cleaning in the room, regular change of towels and bed linen. Apart from you, thank you for the excellent service to the guys who carried out cleaning in our room Jerom and Kajanthiran. Hotels have a beautiful area with a chic pool. There is a gym and play area, bar. Excellent clean beach. The beach is cleaned every day. Good lying with soft mattresses and beach towels are always available. The polite staff at the beach and at the beach bar. Breakfast is wide, there are dishes for any taste. National and European cuisine. A huge amount of baking, waffles are prepared as you wish. Always fresh seasonal fruit. Dinner is also diverse, there are both basic and ”day dishes.” These can be seafood on grill, pork, calmar in fry. Different national dishes such as roti or cat. Special thanks to Sudesh and Kalum waiters, they were very attentive and friendly. At dinner drinks, water, other drinks on the menu (as in all other hotels). The hotel tries to diversify each dinner by inviting different artists to create a cozy atmosphere. I recommend this hotel for a rest. If possible, choose it again!

nice scenery! eat well! The room faces the sea! Watch the sunrise in the morning and watch the sunset on the beach in the afternoon! The hotel staff is very welcoming. Also take us to visit various public areas. Be responsive. Definitely a good place to go on holiday. The hotel's spa is also very comfortable! It is highly recommended to try the Indian Ayurvedic massage. There is oil in the brain to nourish the brain. Massage the whole body for a whole day.
