A very special place with incredible staff that go way and beyond to help. Designed by the renowned architect and artist Laki Senanayake, the main hotel is located on the tip of a wild beach and entrance to a lagoon. Some of the rooms could do with a bit of renovation and some of the air con units don’t work properly etc. But we ended up not needing air con as the building has good cross ventilation and mosquito nets. Breakfast is generous and delicious. Dinner isn’t cheap for SL but the chef is talented and it’s worth it as you can request whatever you fancy including lagoon crab , shrimps, while fish cooked in banana leaves etc. I am sad to leave and already planning my return!

We loved absolutely everything about this place. The welcome from staff, the stunning views, and beautiful room. The food was fabulous so we ate at the hotel every night. Breakfast was huge and the local dishes were excellent. Staff were so helpful and organised anything you needed making it the most relaxing stay. Swimming off the beach is very safe and if you like nature you will love it here as there are so many different birds to see.

Great service, delicious food. Staff was always looking out for ways to be helpful and make us feel at home, which we did! Cozy peaceful place, away from the buzz but easy to reach.

We absolutely loved everything about this hotel. The rooms were so nice, the beach was peaceful and the staff helped us arrange all the activities we wanted to do (and the boat goes directly from the hotel so it couldn’t be easier). The staff were superb and the food (although pricier than we were used to in Sri Lanka) was amazing and we ended up eating at the hotel every night because it was so good. The breakfast was also incredible with so much food!!

I booked one night at C Beyond but liked it so much I extended my stay for a second night. The villa and plunge pool was unexpectedly luxurious. The Laki Senanayake designed house was exquisite and replete with his sculptures and paintings. The food was consistently delicious. Eric, the manager was an accomplished host. I highly recommend C Beyond and its beautiful beach location.

The beach could be cleaner, if you walk from the hotel the beach has a lot of plastic. No one seems to care about that

Amazing view from the room, excellent customer service, eco friendly place. One of the best places to stay in Trincomalle area

Plastic waste on beach, although C Beyond staff work hard to keep their immediate location clean. Lots of wild dogs around who are friendly, but noisy at night. A fan on the balcony would be nice.

Stunning views from this attractive property. Spacious bedroom and bathroom. Mosquito nets around bed. The staff were super friendly and helpful. The food was delicious, breakfast was enormous. Very peaceful location, but remote.

Food could be more local , or more balanced local/western food.

Excellent breakfast with the best from 2 worlds (Sri Lanka and Western). The location is a paradise, if you like remote (and we do). Room, shower and bathroom very good. Friendly staff. The sea, shorter access to Pigeon island. Romantic setting (dinner with pond/sea view) .

Nothing. Everything was perfect.

We had a wonderful stay in this lovely hotel which has a fantastic view of the Bay of Bengal from every room. Our bedroom, with the same magnificent view was spacious, the bed was very comfortable and the bathroom was large with a fabulous shower. The staff, who are carefully chosen by the owner from the surrounding villages, are very kind and helpful, just like the owner. The breakfast was delicious and plentiful as are the evening meals. It was so relaxing to stroll on the beach and around the grounds of the hotel, which are full of trees, shrubs and birds. It was also interesting to watch the fish in the large pond. Our trip to Sri Lanka was to celebrate my husbands 80th birthday and the staff presented him with a birthday cake as they sang 'Happy Birthday' to him. The memory of this kindness, plus the beauty and peaceful ambiance of the hotel, is something I will remember for a long time. I was sorry to leave this paradise after only two nights. Highly recommended.

Stunning location, with beautiful clean airy and spacious room overlooking both the sea and lagoon. Great attention to detail, even a basket was provided for use on the beach. Lovely staff team, always keen to help. Amazing food

Leaving!

We had to tear ourselves away. Eric and his team were so welcoming and the food was amazing. We asked for local food and they were only too happy to suggest and prepare delicious meals for us. We turned the air conditioning off and slept with the doors open to the sound of the waves. There’s a little inlet with a few fishing boats coming and going to watch from the generous balcony. We drove around and felt that we had arrived in Nilaveli just before tourism had really kicked off. With only a few rooms, if you want cocktails and bar music this is not the place, if you want a chilled very comfortable beach side stay in what feels like a private hotel it is. Just book it, you won’t regret it!

Everything was amazing. This is really a gem in a less touristy area of Sri Lanka.

Absolutely nothing!

We spent a few days here outside of the main season and really enjoyed our time. The hotel is located a little north of Nilaveli, but the surrounding towns are easy to reach by tuk-tuk. The secluded location with direct beach access meant we had a beautiful private beach that we only had to share with a few cows. The breakfast was plentiful and delicious and our wishes were taken into account at dinner. The host Eric is a very personable and open person and has built up a great team. All employees are extremely courteous, friendly and very well trained. We felt very welcome here and would be happy to come back one day!

Can't think of anything I would change about the place. Our stay was incredible.

The staff were so helpful and friendly. Breakfast and dinner were great, really good seafood, the prawns are amazing. The room was comfy, clean, beautiful view over the sea. It was peaceful and quiet bar the sound of the waves. And some wildlife made an appearance!

Could have one or two more substantial veggie/vegan options available as there is not much choice as to where to eat around the hotel, making it difficult for vegans to stay for longer periods (which we would love to do!).

We stayed for three nights and the staff really got to know us and our preferences - They were lovely. The beach next to the place is heavenly and the view from the main house of the inlet are pretty special. We did a snorkelling trip to Pigeon Island, which was great. The fresh seafood was perfect, served on the porch overlooking the inlet. I enjoyed the communal feel of it. It was one of the most relaxing places we stayed in Sri Lanka.

- Since there was a little whole in the seiling, some insects would reach in to our bathroom - the extra bed had bed bugs, but it was immediately replaced and all sorted out very quickly

- nice private beach and pool - good service, very friendly personal - suggested boat experience and massage at a place close-by

We ate dinner at their restaurant one time, service could have been a little bit faster, but courses were delicious.

We spent at this amazing place 3 nights for our honeymoon. It has luxury beauty. Rooms are spacious and really tidy, it has all the necessary equipments you need. On our third night we had to change apartments because of overbooking, but we were given more beautiful one.:) All rooms have a marvellous sea-view. The place has a nice private beach and restaurant as well.
