Kalkudah Hotels & Accommodations

We stayed at Amaya for two night as a family of four. Virtually all the rooms were booked for the weekend and almost all were from other countries.. We luckily got a superb family room with both sea view and pool view. Facilities of the room were fantastic. Excellent service by the staff that also without being fussy at all.. Very friendly staff as well.. Good, varieties of food.. Good pool.. Amazing sea view and can have a bath on the shallow beach.. Will definitely visit again.. Highly recommended..

Magnificent sandy beach. There is a reef nearby where you can swim with a snorkel (it is better to negotiate with a separate service on the shore to the right. Good buffet dinners, I do not recommend a la carte. If you want more seafood - 10 minutes on foot cafe Captain. Of the minuses: 1. most important: urgently need to go to the beach more sun loungers. Well, not enough!!! You have to borrow, well, what a nonsense. A huge beach, a lot of places, a lot of palm trees, under which you can lie down, but not on anything. 2. Breakfast is rather weak, but you won’t leave hungry. In my opinion, not corresponds to the price 3. Far from everything, well, there is nothing at all, knock-knock to help 4. The staff sometimes, let's say, slow down, but they try.

A beautiful, fascinating country with lovely people. By way of context, we spent 10 days in Sri Lanka from mid to end May 2022. We are a family of 4 including two girls (10 &11). We had a private driver/guide. The itinerary was Kandy (Amaya Hills), Dambulla, Sigiriya, safari, Polonnaruwa (Aliya Resort) and then a beach break in Kalkudha on the E. coast (Uga Bay). Despite well-publicised economic and political problems, we had no issues. We avoided Colombo (rainy anyway) and our private driver had no serious issues with fuel (as the tourist industry is given priority). We had huge sympathies for the locals though, stuck in long fuel queues and suffering rampant inflation. Hotels were also practically empty. We felt safe throughout and the locals were so friendly. Travel there and support Sri Lanka rather than staying away. We also had no health problems at all and no issues with mosquitoes. A beautiful, fascinating country with lovely people.

Travel there and support Sri Lanka rather than staying away. We also had no health problems at all and no issues with mosquitoes. This is a 5* hotel versus the two 4* hotels we stayed in. It was really excellent and deserves that rating. Located on a quiet penninsular with pool and well-manicured garden sweeping down to a wide sandy beach in the middle of a sweeping bay with calm, shallow water where you can walk out 50m. It looked to us that Uga Bay was far better than a the few other resorts further around the bay. Whilst the beach is not private, there was very little activity other than hotel guests and they were few and far between. Nobody pestering you. Plenty of free beach beds and attentive staff with towels. Very tranquile but not much activity for the kids. It annoyed me that the hotel wanted to charge US$ 8 p.h. for a couple of plastic canoes that might have oferred a few hours’ entertainment. No coral/snorkeling outside the hotel but the hotel offers expensive, but very good, boat trips to nearby coral reefs. The main building is low and quite small so blends into the palm trees. It consists of a reception and open air bar area, a small indoor/outdoor restaurant and then upstairs a gym, games room and event room. The rooms are neatly aranged around the well-manicured gardens

We stayed at Anantaya from 22nd - 23rd Dec as a part of our honeymoon tour in Passikudah. It’s an insta worthy place, specially the pool area. Pool was amazing.. we really enjoyed the large pool and our ocean and pool view room was just perfect. We loved the bedding.. it was so cozy.. we enjoyed a cup of tea in the evening at the. balcony with that amazing view. Room service and housekeeping staff were very helpful to us during the stay with all of our requests. The front office team was very welcoming and friendly. Everyone was adhering to the health and safety standards. The food was alright but some improvements wouldn’t hurt. It would have been better if the breakfast buffet had a better choice.. However, upon request the chef made us a delicious omelet for breakfast and we enjoyed a lot.. special thank you to the Chef! Since we were on half board we wanted to have lunch on the 23rd Dec from the hotel itself. When we went to check that with the restaurant staff, there were two staff members and one was on the mobile (probably the restaurant manager based on the conversation he was having on the phone) and the other was assisting him with the call. So we waited a little assuming someone would attend to us. Since it was taking longer than we thought, we tried signalling them that we wanted to speak to one of them but even after seeing us they ignored. We gave up on the idea of having lunch at the hotel and proceeded to checkout. When we were leaving that person who was on the phone came to speak with us but by that time we’ve decided elsewhere for lunch. Apart from this minute incident, overall our experience with Anantaya Passikudah was good!
