The hotel welcomes all new guests with flower necklaces and cool fruit drinks. The breakfast buffet options are numerous. We ordered a la carte lunch & dinner, and the food was always exceptional. (Note, the first night we wanted something that they didn’t have but they ordered it for the second night.) The room was ok, but all rooms come with a comfortable balcony to make up for what the room lacks. Also, the bathroom is about the same size as the room.
The beach and the ocean are by far the main reason to come here. The warm ocean water is unparalleled and the hotel staff do a wonderful job keeping their section of the beach clean. The pool area is also nice, but we came for the beach and spent most of our time there.
The kid space is lacking, but that’s ok as long as you aren’t there when it rains.
Lastly, all the staff we encountered were professional. They helped arrange our departure taxi which actually was rather reasonably priced; meaning same price everyone seems to charge tourists 200 rupees per kilometer (rather than what locals pay which is like 120-150).
Overall, I highly recommend staying here.
Set along the pristine coastlines of Passikudah Beach, Amethyst Resort, Passikuddah offers a spacious outdoor swimming pool and provides windsurfing activities.
These hotels offer something unique in terms of design and are usually set in a trendy, urban part of town. Blending high standards with a homey vibe, boutique hotels are more intimate than your average hotel.
The hotel is quite exceptional. It's beautifully designed and very comfortable with a great ambience. A fantastic place to chill and relax on a stunning, undeveloped beach. The food is really very high quality too. Overall a beautiful hotel in lovely spacious grounds with brilliant, attentive staff (a special mention here to Umberto, the larger than life manager, and Bandara) who go out of their way to make the stay special and memorable.
Beautiful boutique hotel with a romantic vibe for a peaceful stay in a natural paradise.
This place combines luxury with the peace of a fishermen's beach.
The staff is super nice, and professional, providing high-quality service to guarantee a perfect stay.
The staff is adorable, professional and efficient.
The venue is a gem on the planet: peaceful and stunningly beautiful.
Food is fresh and just excellent.
They also offer ayurevedic treatments which were amazing!
The design of the hotel itself and the lodges were mindblowing!
Spectacular hotel in perfect setting close to the beach. Best hotel of our holiday and our second visit. Silver service restaurant and bar. Gorgeous pool.
The architect deserves a prize - great design and comfort.
This place is just a dream getaway. The design is quite stunning and at times it feels like you are the only people at resort - particularly if you book a beach cabana. The beach is properly stunning and waking up to watch the sunrise through the palm trees is unforgettable. Food is very very good - we booked a beach BBQ.
