What an amazing location and hotel. Staff are everywhere and tend to ask bizarrely probing questions on customer satisfaction, but they are attentive!

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.

Große Zimmer mit Balkon oder Terasse, bequeme Matratzen, großer Poolbereich mit kostenfreien Liegen, Auflagen, Schirmen und Handtüchern, sehr freundliches Personal, Hotel ist insgesamt in einem gepflegtem guten Zustand. Nicht gefallen hat mir: Das Hotel hat ein "Krähenproblem", sehr viele von diesen Vögeln im Garten verunreinigen Liegen und Sitzgelegenheiten, trinken am Pool, hinterlassen Federn und Ausscheidungen am Pool und der Geräuschpegel ist auch nicht zu unterschätzen. Nicht gefallen hat mir: Der Strand und das Meer sind nicht zu empfehlen. Sehr hohe Brandung mit Strömung (hängt evt. im September noch mit dem Monsun zusammen?), der Strand wird zwar von Treibgut befreit, weist aber an einigen Stellen dunkle Verfärbungen auf (Verschmutzung?) und vom Wasser her kommt ein muffiger Geruch. Leider hat Sri Lanka kein funktionierendes Abwassersystem und so landet alles in Flüssen und im Meer! Wer ohne Strand und Meer leben kann ist in diesem Hotel aber bestens aufgehoben.

Nice grounds, rooms.
It was ok. There was a big convention with hundreds of people. So it was a zoo when I was there. Huge long line for dinner buffet. Not ideal.
Paul, 4-night trip

Luxe hotel!
De accommodatie was erg goed, ontbijt ook! Alleen als je een taxi nodig hebt, kun je dit beter zelf regelen. De travel agent die ertussen zitten vraagt het dubbele. Zodat een deel naar de agent gaat, een deel naar hotel en een deel naar de chauffeur. Dit hebben we in andere hotels niet meegemaakt! Waarschijnlijk omdat dit een luxer hotel was en de prijzen daarom ook hoger. Ik gun liever een groter deel aan de het taxibedrijf/ chauffeur. Overigens voelt het ook een beetje ongemakkelijk doordat alles gedetecteerd wordt. Jezelf, taxi’s en tuktuk.

Hotel stay
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.
mark, 13-night trip

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

Great hotel, very comfortable and stylish. Club suites are definitely the way to go, beautiful rooms and worthwhile additional amenities.
