Aathi Resort

We loved staying at Aathi Resort, it's halfway between the tourist restaurant area in Trincomalee and Nilaveli beach. It was perfect for us to go diving and swim with sharks on Pigeon Island, enjoy relaxing by the pool and go out in the evening in Alles Garden. The pool is perfect and the staff are so nice and helpful. Highly recommend!

Could be nice to have a fridge in the room but it was already great!

Superbe piscine extérieure. Chambre propre avec tous les équipements nécessaires. Salle de bain pareil. Petit déjeuner varié. Personnel agréable et disponible. Service de laundry sur place.

Un peu excentré (à 10 minutes de trajet des restaurants) nécessaire de prendre un tuktuk/ louer un scooter.

Het lag buiten het centrum van Trincomalee waar het heerlijk relaxed was. Alles was eenvoudig met een kort ritje in een tuktuk te bereiken. De mensen waren zeer behulpzaam en aardig.

Ik zou het niet weten

Sadly we are not amazed by this “resort”. But what we can say is that the owner is friendly and the room was clean.

There were a lot of points we disliked, for starters no working Wifi. No reception for check-in / check-out. (If you are in luck the owner is there other wise you have to communicate with his non-english speaking guard). There was no food/room service available at the property even though it is located outside the city center and called a “resort”. Some smaller points would be no hot shower water, no kettle for making coffee or tea in the room. There was a TV but it had no signal. When we informed about laundry it would take 2 days therefore being past our checkout date and there was no refill station for drinking water. All together we were just a little bit disappointed. But then checkout did not go smoothly either, since there is no reception the guard would collect the money, but there was no receipt, no communication just the word “money”…
