The Blue Water - Geoffrey Bawa Heritage Resort Hotel

We had a lovely stay at Blue Water. The property was beautiful, peaceful and very relaxing, making it a perfect place to unwind. The room was comfortable and clean, and the surroundings were lovely. The staff were friendly and welcoming, and we really appreciated their hospitality throughout our stay. Everything was well organised, and we felt comfortable and looked after.

We enjoyed our stay at Blue Water, and I appreciated being upgraded to the JBawa Special Edition Suite. However, there were a few areas that could be improved. The rooms became very wet inside quite quickly whenever we opened the doors. In the Special Edition Suite, the floor also became wet and slippery when we switched on the air conditioning, which was a safety concern. It would also be helpful if each room had more information about the à la carte menu and spa services, including prices, so guests can easily plan and make bookings. Unfortunately, the mocktails and cocktails we ordered at the bar were not very enjoyable. I feel the bar staff may benefit from some additional training in cocktail preparation, presentation and consistency, so the drinks can meet the standard expected from the property. Overall, we enjoyed the beautiful surroundings and hospitality, but addressing these areas would make the guest experience much better.

Calm and quiet.

We lost power multiple times. Air conditioning had issues in one of rooms.

All meals were good. Restaurant staff Sara and Uditha are exceptional

The property itself as well as the look of the building are very nice. The staff was excellent and the location was very nice at the beach.

There is quite some maintenance to be done. The tennis court is useless as there are no functional rackets and balls, which would be very easy and cheap to replace. The pool is constantly out of towels (easy to buy more). The airco made the room smell very stuffy and was unpleasant. Some of the buildings need more maintenance. Overall the price is too much compared to other places we have stayed.
