This modern hotel set in lovely grounds (monkeys playing in the huge trees) has a fantastic infinity pool and great views over one of the main bays of Trincomalee. The staff are extremely friendly and helpful and the rooms are spacious - we had a great verandah too to watch the monkeys. Quiet and peaceful away from the bustle of... More

A perfect place to stay for stunning views of the harbour; amazing architecture, gardens and pool; spacious, well kept rooms; a good variety of delicious food and most of all very efficient, friendly staff under the command of Wimal, from whom we learnt so much about Sri Lanka and Trincomalee, present and past.

Wonderful view over the bay (nearly like a Norwegian fjord). Very spacious rooms with balcony. So nice to have dinner and breakfast on the terrace overlooking the sea. Very large garden and pleasant swimming pool. Very efficient staff. An excellent alternative for those who prefer a hotel with a lot of charm and atmosphere to a beach resort. And Trincomalee...

We stayed at this hotel for one night and it turned out to be one of the highlights of my trip to Sri Lanka. This place had some of the most unique architecture that I haven't seen anywhere before. The amazing service stunned me, along with one of the best breakfasts I've sat down for. The pool is located at... More

No record of our booking (and deposit !) but we were quickly found large rooms overlooking the sea. The views are outstanding, the pool is well maintained, the open air dining area is great fun and there is a good... More

The hotel is situated on a hill at the Trincomalee bay. Beautiful views, great atmosphere, and only the beach is missing. I arrived at the hotel early in the morning and I got my room immediately. Breakfasts were a buffet, but in the next few days due to lack of guests I had to choose food from the menu card.... More

I nice hotel with a beautiful view. The food was reasonable and worth every rupee! Nice views from our room and also whilst swimming in the pool. The staff were very friendly and only a 25 minute walk to the bus/train station if you don't have a driver. Monkeys in the front garden and there is a nice variety of... More

We spent a full night in Sea View Bungalow. Even though the structure is bit old, the toilets and rooms are clean with nice view. Food was good and staff were pleasant. Even though there was a small misunderstanding regarding additional services that we were agreed, management agreed at the end. Manager was a very pleasant fellow and helped us... More
