Star Beach Hotel

Liked: beachfront location with a swimming pool right on the beach, coconut trees and sundecks at the pool area, friendly and attentive staff, strong shower with hot enough water, working AC and ceiling fan, switches next to bed, charging ports next to bed, hairdryer received upon request, early check in and late check out (both at noon, instead of later and earlier), simple but sufficient included breakfast set (coffee or tea pot, cut fruits or fruit juice, toast with butter and jam, sausages or tomato, and choice of eggs), well maintained pool area. Special shout-out to Ruan who was ever helpful and kind during my 3-night stay. 👍👍👍 Disliked: my room 101 wasn't very clean, especially the bathroom, AC was making loud sound till I had to turn it off at night to sleep, no mini fridge. Also, no toiletries provided save for a small bar soap.

simple accommodation on the beach

I have stayed at 2 other hotels in Negombo—the Star Beach was the best, especially when you consider cost and included breakfast. Staff are very helpful and considerate. I went out for my meals, so I can't comment on meals except for breakfast which was fine. Not buffet style. They do not have a pool but a small piece of sandy area with easy access to the beach/Indian Ocean. I stay for 3 nights by myself and always felt secure.
