The room is by the sea, which is great, and the view is great, but the service is a bit behind. I waited a long time to check in, and then there was someone in the hotel who asked for a tip.
Отель выше всяких похвал. Сотрудники стараются. Очень чисто. Еда вкусная, на ужин брали сэт меню, качество неплохих московских ресторанов, подача и вкус, молодцы ребята. Завтрак простенький, но никогда не были голодными, все качественно. Пляж мягкий песок, океан, небольшие волны, теплый, уехали плакать хочется. Мы добирались больше обычного, водитель свернул не туда и мы оказали в отеле через 9 часов после приземления. 9 часов в дороге, вроде ничто не поможет зажить этой ране)) но уга Бэй смог. Это райское место с отличными ребятами, давайте чаевые они этого достойны!
Nice hotel with nice rooms. Food could be better and tastier. Swimming pool is too shallow and very warm. Sandbags on the beach were not a pretty sight.
This excellent hotel is really a resort. It is off the beaten path, but worth the extra travel time to get there. The staff are very friendly and the food at both restaurants is very good. There is easy access to the beach and it’s quiet. We were there for new years. I highly recommend it!
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
Большой отель! Были не в сезон. Но с погодой повезло. Номер достался большой, но в торце корпуса и наш 'якобы” балкончик представлял собой два стула на грязном куске бетона, причем за пляжным туалетом. Так как мы были 2 ночи, не стали возмущаться. Сначала положили два полотенца - остальные пришлось просить. Завтраки хорошие, так как много пакетников, то пообедать самостоятельным туристам в ресторане это целое приключение - отдельный заказ вводит персонал в ступор и ждать супер долго. Развлечений в отеле вечерами мы не застали. И в округе ничего нет. В шаговой доступности 1 ресторан (на 3+) и все. Если бы мы приехали сюда больше чем на пару ночей я бы была расстроена - честно. И это мы были на машине, могли самостоятельно доехать хотя бы до супермаркета. Кальян в отеле не берите - он ужасен.
At the staff were very friendly. Special thanks to both Robinson and Ruchira!! I was on BB basis and the breakfast was very good! And unlike other places where they offer chicken bacon these guys had the good stuff! Thanks
Few people, good environment, good service, the hotel's special staple food for breakfast is delicious, the seafood set for two at the beach at night is great, especially the crab is very tender. Living in the jungle chalet, a small courtyard with an open-air shower, returned to the room after playing on the beach in the afternoon, a small snake came, took a small jump, a different experience, haha.
With a stay at Arugambay Roccos in Arugam Bay, you'll be a 3-minute walk from Arugam Bay Beach and a 5-minute drive from Muhudu Maha Viharaya Temple. This beach hotel is 3.7 mi (6 km) from Pottuvil Point and 15.2 mi (24.4 km) from Kumana National Park.
Head down to the water and enjoy a day at the private beach, or take advantage of other recreational amenities including an outdoor pool and bicycles to rent. Additional features at this hotel include concierge services, an arcade/game room, and gift shops/newsstands. Getting to nearby attractions is a breeze with the complimentary area shuttle.
Enjoy a meal at the restaurant, or stay in and take advantage of the hotel's room service. Full breakfasts are available daily from 7:30 AM to 11:00 AM for a fee.
Featured amenities include express check-in, express check-out, and dry cleaning/laundry services. A roundtrip airport shuttle is provided for a surcharge (available 24 hours), and free valet parking is available onsite.
Make yourself at home in one of the 22 guestrooms. Rooms have private balconies or patios. Private bathrooms with showers feature rainfall showerheads and complimentary toiletries. Conveniences include desks and complimentary bottled water, and housekeeping is provided daily.
There were so many things, but overall, all the staff were very hardworking, kind and good people!
First of all, it seems that the reservation for 4 nights that I had made on Trip.com was not made at the time of check-in. There are many staff members, but there are only about two staff members who can communicate in English without any problems, and it was difficult to find them every time lol.
I was hurriedly guided to my room, but I couldn't find the air conditioner remote control, and a staff member just brought me a towel (probably the room was hastily provided, so it was not fully prepared?) When I asked for the remote control at that time, they brought it to me relatively quickly. The wi-fi password was handwritten on the phone, but it was faded and I couldn't read it, so I looked for a staff member again and asked lol.
I thought there would be hot water, but it was room temperature (it was a little cold at first, but if you try hard to take a shower, it feels like it's getting warmer for some reason, but it was exactly the same temperature lol) and the water pressure was quite weak. I asked the staff, but it seems that the temperature probably can't be changed. I asked them for at least the water pressure, and it improved a little. However, the water pressure was weak again the next night, so I asked them to adjust the water pressure every day for four days before taking a shower. When the staff came to check the water pressure, they stood on the bath mat with their shoes on, and the bath mat turned black because the shoes were wet with water... This happened two days in a row, so we told them that the water pressure had improved and it was okay to check it. It may be a cultural difference, but I guess they don't care about guests' bath mats turning black.
The laundry service, free bicycle rental, and currency exchange that were listed on Trip.com (same as ***********) were not available lol
The location is nice, right in front of the sea. It's a 10-20 minute walk to the town, but I was so scared of the stray dogs at night (they sleep and relax during the day, but are super active at night...) that I had to use a tuk-tuk every time.
The hotel itself is not bad, but the shower was the only thing that bothered me. There were also frequent power outages every day. (It wasn't particularly difficult, but it sometimes took several hours lol)
The staff were all really trying to solve the problem and listen to our requests. They were very calm and friendly, and always had a shy smile lol
However, their English was quite weak, so it was necessary to be patient and communicate.

MMuhammad Irsyad Bin ZainiPrepare to be captivated by the sheer beauty and serenity that awaits you at the Amethyst Resort Passikudah. My recent stay at this slice of paradise was nothing short of awe-inspiring, leaving me with memories that will undoubtedly linger for a lifetime.

The accommodations at Amethyst Resort are a testament to luxury and sophistication. My room exuded a perfect blend of contemporary design and traditional charm, offering a spacious haven that instantly felt like home. The attention to detail in the decor, coupled with modern amenities, ensured a stay of unparalleled comfort.
One of the highlights of my visit was the culinary journey offered by the resort's restaurants. Each dining experience was a gastronomic delight, showcasing a diverse array of local and international flavors. The talented chefs at Amethyst Resort have truly mastered the art of tantalizing the taste buds, leaving me eager to explore the menu each day.
The resort's spa, a sanctuary of tranquility, provided an oasis for relaxation and self-indulgence. The skilled therapists and a thoughtfully curated menu of treatments allowed me to unwind and rejuvenate, making my stay a holistic experience for mind, body, and soul.
Amethyst Resort also excels in providing a range of activities for the adventurous soul. Whether it's water sports, cultural excursions, or simply basking in the sun by the infinity pool, the resort caters to every whim and fancy.
In conclusion, my stay at Amethyst Resort Passikudah was nothing short of magical. The seamless fusion of luxury, natural beauty, and warm hospitality creates an experience that transcends the ordinary. If you are seeking a haven of tranquility, where each moment is a celebration of life's beauty, Amethyst Resort Passikudah is undoubtedly the destination of choice. This hidden gem on the eastern coast of Sri Lanka has etched a special place in my heart, and I eagerly await the opportunity to return to its embrace.
GGuest UserWe enjoyed our stay at the beach bungalows here. We came during off season and they cleaned the pool for us and we had the beachfront bungalow. The breakfast was really good! However, this hotel also operates a liquor store that runs 24/7 right in the middle of the guest rooms so at all hours of the day there were people walking through to buy alcohol (during breakfast time even) and then would sit down on the premises to consume their purchases. As two young travellers it was not a huge deal but if you are a family it might not be the space for you!

IIrrushkinБольшой отель! Были не в сезон. Но с погодой повезло. Номер достался большой, но в торце корпуса и наш 'якобы” балкончик представлял собой два стула на грязном куске бетона, причем за пляжным туалетом. Так как мы были 2 ночи, не стали возмущаться. Сначала положили два полотенца - остальные пришлось просить. Завтраки хорошие, так как много пакетников, то пообедать самостоятельным туристам в ресторане это целое приключение - отдельный заказ вводит персонал в ступор и ждать супер долго. Развлечений в отеле вечерами мы не застали. И в округе ничего нет. В шаговой доступности 1 ресторан (на 3+) и все. Если бы мы приехали сюда больше чем на пару ночей я бы была расстроена - честно. И это мы были на машине, могли самостоятельно доехать хотя бы до супермаркета. Кальян в отеле не берите - он ужасен.
GGuest UserЗаехали на 2 ночи, отель расположен на берегу океана, собственный чистый пляж, вода прозрачная. Номер большой, красивый вид. Сотрудники очень дружелюбные. Из минусов не было гигиенических принадлежностей, не работал музыкальный центр, сломана дверка в кухонном шкафу, остатки туалетной бумаги, нового рулона не было. Но красивый вид из окна перекрывает все недостатки номера.
