Matara 5 Stars Hotels

"Good location for surfing"

"Great hotel"

"This is truly a lovely hotel, with a great pool and beach front. Rooms are spacious and comfortable and grounds are very well maintained. Entrance feels grand and welcome us very warm. Great kids club. Would definitely return if I had the opportunity. Only minus I experienced was the upselling (day trips, spa treatments) during breakfast. While this may work well with some of the clientele, I found this quite annoying."

"Amazing place staff and food out of this world"

"Just Amazing, it was the perfect environment to unwind and relax after a busy couple of weeks. I ended my vacation to Sri Lanka at the Fortress and I loved it. The staff service was exceptional, food was so delicious, I wish I had more room to enjoy more of it!! I can’t wait to come back with my family and friends. Thank you for your hospitality. "

"Property is in a nice location within walking distance of the little village. Food options were good and well presented."

"My wife and I had an amazing stay for our honeymoon. The location is so peaceful, with the beach behind the hotel being so beautiful. The food prepared at the hotel was simply stunning! We had a daily set menu with choices, and the menu was great, food portions were generous and tasted amazing. The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The only slight negative about this place is the wifi is very temperamental (not always a bad thing). It can feel a little sleepy through the day, but if...

"Had to wait over an hour past posted check in time. Was told some story about the AC, but, seems it was housekeeping as the floors were wet when we finally checked in. Room was run down..biggest issue was that neither of the two showers drained properly. In fact, sewage came up and created an offensive odor. This was reported to the front desk and repairs were attempted, but not done properly. So, the room still smelled BAD. Also, the workman left a BIG mess. I had to go to the front desk to...

"We stayed at the Frangipani Tree for 9 nights and thoroughly enjoyed it. The staff were very helpful even before we arrived, helping to book a car from the airport. It is a two hour drive form the airport but the roads are very good and there is lots to look at on the way. On arrival you can relax with a drink and admire the scenery. The site is not large, it is based on 9 lodge type rooms around a pool and a few metres from the beach and behind a wall and gatehouse to separate it from the...

"Nice place by the beach "

"Lovely relaxing stay in beautiful rooms with amazing views of the sea. Wonderful attentive service as well!"

"After a week touring the island, we just wanted somewhere to rest and relax. We could not have found anything better. Beautifully decorated private villa with pool, each one well apart so totally tranquil. The service was impeccable, excellent massage, variety of evening food experiences, first class local and international cuisine. All in a tea plantation setting with a wide variety of wildlife passing through. Just memorable "

"Serenety at its best..."

"It was the worst hotel experience we had ever. Rooms were full with mosquitos,bed linen and pillow case covers was not changed when we arrived and they changed them after we checked in to the room and they sprayed bugs spray all over and it was difficult to breathe. It was raining and that room's electricity went off 4 times and each time it went to we had to run to the reception to inform them as they did not pickup phone. Finally they changed us to a difference room.food was worst.. after...

"Well appointed space, lovely spacious room and bathroom. Staff very friendly , well trained and very helpful. Breakfast however can do with a bit of improvement. I love Sri Lankan food and found the breakfast buffet a bit underwhelming "

"Good pep good ac"

"Very pleasant one night stay at Sielen Diva. Beautifully and sleekly designed hotel with very large rooms that have high ceilings and unbelievable floor to ceiling windows with views of the beach and ocean. Waking up to that view was a joy! Very nice pool and common areas and a friendly, helpful staff. Top credit to the manager who assisted in the return of my phone when I forgot it in the transport car to the airport in Colombo. he was able to call the driver who came back to the airport and...

"We were the only guests during our stay so throughly enjoyed using the lovely pool and gardens, amazingly helpfull kind staff, delicious breakfast and tastefully designed comfortable rooms and common areas. "

"Loved the name of this Hotel, and on arrival were not disappointed. It is a newly refurbished Hotel, and although simple in style, it is a very unique place, located on a wonderful site which overlooks the ocean, and has a spectacular view from the restaurant while dining. Everyone was so nice, and the staff could not do enough for us, but I have to mention our lovely waiter Isha who was such a pleasant young man, and made us feel extra welcome. His smile would brighten your day, and anything...
