Dickwella Resort and Spa

The property is a bit old, but it has been very well maintained. Everything is kept clean and in excellent condition. The reception area and the rest of the resort are beautifully designed and well cared for, giving the entire place a charming and welcoming atmosphere.

The room was comfortable, but the bathroom could have been maintained a little better.

Dickwella Resort reminded me that old school Sri Lankan hospitality is still alive. This was one of the best hotels stays I have had recently. I booked this property randomly but since the very first moment , the staff and the location exceeded my every expections. Key highlights were , the location. The property is surrounded by the ocean by 3 sides. Beaches are golden , Sandy and the waves were ideal for both swimming and surfing. I could see many turtles nearby. This resort is spreaded over a huge space giving much needed peace of mind and privacy. My room was super spacious and well equipped. The views from the room was fantastic. The staff was super attentive and professional. They were always willing to add an extra value to my holiday. Food was really delicious and with alots of sea food items fresh from the sea. I think I have found a new favorite beach resort in Sri Lanka. I will gladly return next year as well. Special thanks for Tharanga , Nadun and every other staff members. Until next time!!

Nothing. Everything was perfect.

The hotel is beautifully decorated, the staff is extremely polite and down to earth, the chef is super, walking around the property talking to people, playing table tennis with us, etc.. the property is situated between two stunning beaches, on one side you’re super close to twin palm tree swings that create a stunning backdrop for photos, if you continue walking further you get to the turtle point, where you can watch an amazing sunset.. you can also watch sunset directly from the hotel. The rooms are all with sea views, which is amazing!! We also watched sunrise from our room one morning! Breakfast has vast choices and even our kids managed to choose so much:) table tennis, chess and mini golf are a nice touch when travelling with the children. Hirikitiya beach for surfing is a walkable distance or about 3 dollars by tuktuk. It was an amazing end to our 12 days trip to Sri Lanka, which btw is one of the most stunning countries we’ve ever visited!!! Thank you for everything :)

The rooms could do with a little tlc but nothing we couldn’t get over :)

The location is great. Access to both beaches is ideal and the view from the restaurants is beautiful. The spa is nice and the masseuse and masseurs very good and professional.

The room furniture is though dated still nice, but the bathrooms definitely need to be renovated. All the water fixtures are totally calcified not working properly and it smelled terribly of urine. The pool area is all covered by reed floor tiles which heat up like an oven and make the stay very unpleasant. Which didn’t go away when staff spayed air freshener… The general service is nice but service process is not adequate of a 5 star ( according to booking.com)
