We stayed here for 2 nights, 56$ per night for the deluxe room. The hotel is water fromt and has a practically private beach. The swimming pool overlooks the ocean and is great. The food isnt excellent but our waiter, raja, was amazing and attended to everything we needed. We loved every minute!

Hotel is placed in a Peaceful environment, with the perfect Nilaveli beach and a lovely pool. But the food was so gross and overpriced. Rooms are average but not value for the price.

The rooms are quite simple to be honest (with a bite more effort it... More

We spent two nights at this place after its rather good review in a Sri Lankan travel guide. First the positive factors: the location of the hotel is excellent, with direct access to a beautiful beach, there is a lawn and a well-sized swimming pool. The rooms are all facing the beach. However.... everything in the room that we were... More

I took my Mum and daughter for a short trip to Trincomalee and we ended up at the Coral Bay. We were allocated a "luxury room" where the manager tried to offer us a discounted room for SLR 8800 with A/C down the end of the hotel. It did not any running water in the shower so I had to... More
