Real Bookers. Real stays. Real opinions.
Read more– opens a dialog boxEach review score is between 1 and 10. To get the overall score you see, we add up all the review scores we’ve received and divide that total by the number of them. We use a weighted review system, which means the more recent the review, the bigger the impact on the total review score calculation. Guests can also give separate “subscores” in crucial areas like location, cleanliness, staff, comfort, facilities, value, and free Wifi. Note that guests submit their subscores and overall scores independently, so there’s no direct link between them.
You can review an accommodation that you booked through our platform if you stayed there, or if you got to the property but didn’t actually stay there. To edit a review you’ve already submitted, contact our Customer Service team.
We have people and automated systems that specialize in detecting fake reviews submitted to our platform. If we find any, we delete them and, if necessary, take action against whoever is responsible.
Anyone who spots something suspicious can always report it to our Customer Service team so that our fraud team can investigate.
Ideally, we'd publish every review we get, positive and negative. However, we won’t display any reviews that include or refer to (among other things):
To make sure reviews are relevant, we may only accept reviews that are submitted within 3 months of checking out. We may stop showing reviews once they’re 36 months old, or if the accommodation has a change of ownership.
An accommodation can reply to a review.
When you see multiple reviews, the most recent ones will be at the top, subject to a few other factors (e.g. language, whether it’s just a rating or contains comments as well, etc.). You can sort and/or filter them by time of year, review score, and more.
Sometimes we show external review scores from other well-known travel websites, but make it clear when we do this.
These guidelines and standards aim to keep the content on Booking.com relevant and family-friendly, without limiting expression or strong opinions. They're also applicable regardless of the comment's tone.
Contributions should be travel related. The most helpful contributions are detailed and help others make better decisions. Please don’t include personal, political, ethical, or religious commentary. Promotional content will be removed and issues concerning Booking.com’s services should be routed to our Customer Service or Accommodation Service teams.
Contributions should be appropriate for a global audience. Please avoid using profanity or attempts to approximate profanity with creative spelling, in any language. Comments and media that include hate speech, discriminatory remarks, threats, sexually explicit remarks, violence, or the promotion of illegal activity are not permitted.
All content should be genuine and unique to the guest. Reviews are most valuable when they are original and unbiased. Your contribution should be yours. Booking.com property partners should not post on behalf of guests or offer incentives in exchange for reviews. Attempts to bring down the rating of a competitor by submitting a negative review will not be tolerated.
Respect the privacy of others. Booking.com will make an effort to obscure email addresses, telephone numbers, website addresses, social media accounts, and other similar details.
The opinions expressed in contributions are those of Booking.com customers and properties, and not of Booking.com. Booking.com does not accept responsibility or liability for any reviews or responses. Booking.com is a distributor (without any obligation to verify) and not a publisher of these comments and responses.
By default, reviews are sorted based on the date of the review and on additional criteria to display the most relevant reviews, including but not limited to: your language, reviews with text, and non-anonymous reviews. Additional sorting options might be available (by type of traveler, by score, etc...).

PolandThis "hotel" has only 5 rooms 😊 we had one with an ocean view. The room is nice, big with comfortable beds, nice, big bathroom with super shower with hot water. The staff is very friendly and helpful, they can organise everything. We could stay longer on the day of check out!!! We are very grateful for that 😊 if you are looking for a quiet place with literally nothing around, this is the perfect place for you. Around just the basic shop and few restaurants. Only breakfast could be better, we just had toast, scrambled eggs with jam etc.

SloveniaWe stayed for three days, and during that time, they could have changed the towels and cleaned the room, as it was full of sand from the beach. A bit away from the city center.
Very friendly host. Excellent breakfast.

Thank you Pramosh, Patrick and Jaya for the wonderful hospitality you guys have shown from proactively giving tips to avoid getting scammed, recommending best places for water activities, adjusting breakfast timings to ensure I don't remain empty stomach till lunch to taking me on their scooty for currency exchange and utilities. I can't recommend this hotel enough, a proper 10/10 stay.

Switzerland- WiFi access in the room could be improved and maybe offering card payment. But these are very small things, generally we had Ana amazing time.
We had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The location is perfect with access to a beautiful quite beach at the edge of Hikkaduwwa which was a plus to avoid the tourists hotspot. The hotel and room were very nicely decorated. Above all the staff were amazing. Both Pramosh and Patrick made us feel home from the moment we arrived. They arranged delicious breakfast everyday, did a lagoon excursion for us and when we left it felt hard to say goodbye. We would definitely go back to this hotel not only for the location and facilities but definitely for the great staff and hospitality.

Amazing stay at Kavin Beach Hotel! I recently stayed at Kavin Beach Hotel and I couldn’t be more pleased with my experience. The room was spotless, spacious, and beautifully decorated, providing a cozy and comfortable environment. Mr. Pramosh was incredibly friendly, attentive, and always ready to assist with any request. The hotel’s location is perfect, close to Kumarakanda Vihara Temple, supermarket and my favourite restaurant A2 yet peaceful enough for a restful night’s sleep.

RussiaStaying at this hotel was one of the best stays in Sri Lanka. This is a beautiful and modern hotel on the coast. This hotel is calm and the beach is always empty, which we love. They serve delicious and inexpensive breakfasts. They also made an incredible candlelight dinner for us. The food is very tasty. The staff is hospitable and always ready to help at any moment. Even our neighbors are wonderful sweet people. If we are in Sri-Lanka again we will definitely stay here. These people know their stuff, I recommend this place to you with great enthusiasm, you will have a lot of good experiences. Thank you so much for everything again!🥰

AustraliaNothing. Looking forward the business growing. Good people
Best place to stay in Sri Lanka. My first time to Sri Lanka, I didn’t know the best beach to stay at, I trusted my intuition and picked Kavin beach hotel. And I’m so glad I did. The rooms are all clean and pretty. We picked the ocean view room, it’s huge, we could do yoga in there while looking at the beach. The bathroom is big with a fancy shower, silent air con. It’s all new, clean and modern/stylish. The room is luxury with the dreamy view. It really is like a dream come true. We traveled all along the cost to the most popular beaches, and although they were all beautiful, we enjoyed swimming in the bay next to Kavin hotel the best, warm, calm, water like silk and no tourists. The owner was so lovely, we spent a week there and he became like a brother, we felt like we were staying with family. The staff were all wonderful. They all went above and beyond. I’ve travelled the world and this is the best place I’ve ever stayed. The location is awesome too, not busy. Great beach restaurant next door and the best food at A2, hot rottys across the rd and the train station and a beautiful temple, Galle is 20 mins down the rd too. Perfection, plus you can swim with wild turtles. They also made a Romantic bbq on beach for us. So special. Definitely coming back, friends for life. Thank you 🙏

IndiaI had the absolute pleasure of staying at Kavin Beach Hotel during my recent visit from India, and I can wholeheartedly say it was an extraordinary experience. From the moment I arrived, I was struck by the hotel's cleanliness, which was truly top-notch. The hotel's location, right by the beach, provided not only breathtaking views but also the convenience of easy access to the shoreline. Waking up to the sound of the waves and the sight of the ocean was a daily treat. However, what truly made my stay unforgettable was the exceptional kindness of the hotel's owner. He attended to my every need with genuine smiles, making my stay exceptionally comfortable and enjoyable. In every aspect, Kavin Beach Hotel exceeded my expectations. It provided the perfect retreat to relax and immerse myself in the beauty of the beach. I can't thank the staff enough for their warmth and hospitality. I can't wait to return for another exceptional experience.
