Excellent hotel and resort apart from the water pressure of the shower and hot/cold adjustment's which were very temperamental!

Excellent stay, unfortunate spa facilities
Great stay at the Blue Water Hotel. The view is incredible, overseeing the beach and beautiful hotel layout. The rooms are very nice too but could do with a little bit of updating minor details. The pool is HUGE with plenty of privacy. There is a beach that the hotel overlooks too which you can access. The only downside was that the whole steam room, sauna and jacuzzi was down for maintaince so couldn’t enjoy the spa facilities. The massage prices are also way too high for the country.

Our 3rd time at The Blue Water and it never disappoints. Kushuni and Chamal deserve special mentions as they go above and beyond the service expected. We will be back as soon as we can. Thanks to The Blue Water Hotel again for making our visit to Sri Lanka an absolute pleasure .

Nice hotel but suites amenities missing
We opted for the Executive Suite, which was offered with some special services (special restaurant, lounge for drinks and happy hour), etc., that were not operating due to Covid. It’s a nice, comfortable hotel with professional, kind staff, but I would advice booking the basic rooms until they get things sorted.

Perfect for relaxation.Fantastic food at reasonable prices. Wine a bit on the high side.We stayed in a club suite which had extras like free cocktails, butler service and use of the excutive lounge for teas ,coffees and fresh juice and soft drinks. Hotel was immaculate in all ways.

2/10 Poor

Stay away if you want to relax
Beware!! Don’t stay at this hotel if you want to relax and sit by the pool. This hotel has less than 100 sunloungers to accommodate over 250 guests. If you don’t get up early, or pay the pool attendant to reserve your sun lounger, you will receive a tatty bit of foam and a towel to sit on the floor until something becomes available. The pool is dirty and green unlike the crystal blue waters as shown. The rooms are dirty with lights falling out the ceiling and cockroaches on the floor. The club lounge access is a joke which is leftover food from breakfast

6/10 Good

Friendly and helpful reception staff. Food and beverage services at the restaurant were somewhat satisfactory; however, only a very few stand-outs in the buffet spread. Restaurant staff were swift. Bathroom cleanliness was an issue; when checked in, dirty, wet tissue was found in the dirty toothbrush holder; toilet seemed to have not been cleaned as it had toilet paper in it and was not flushed. The phone wreaked of musty odour that would not go away after house keeping cleaned it with alcohol. Balcony and balcony furniture were dirty. Overall, the property needs some attention. The adjacent beach is rather small and had dogs and cows roaming about. The dogs were on the property too. The pools were the highlight. Coconut trees on the property added to the resort feel. The live band during my one night stay was very good and enjoyable. Overall, poor value for the money.

Wonderful stay!
The place was amazing! Food was divine! Great stay although they need to try not do loud construction or repairs in adjoining rooms where the guests occupy. But all on all it was a great holiday with the staff being as accommodating and helpful all the way. Great place to relax!

8/10 Very good

Very disppointing service
Spent 2 nights here with family recently. The room was clean and well-equipped with what we needed. Very comfy bed and had a great sleep. However the downside was the service, in particular the difference we observed from the point of check-in in how we were treated (as Sri Lankans) vs other foreign guests. We had to ask several times for simple things like tea and coffee at breakfast before we actually received it. Given the disappointing service (apart from a lovely waiter at the Seven Seas a la carte restaurant on our last night), we wouldn't recommend this hotel again and won't be visiting in the future.
