We stayed at the Amaya Reef for one night and very much enjoyed our stay. The staff were fantastic, really made us feel welcomed and were very speedy in responding to any request made. Whats more, the Food was really good, far beyond our expectation. The Amaya has free internet access also, which was a real bonus. On the negative... more

This was my fourth Long Haul holiday with Mercury Holidays this year and I have had a really good holiday. The Amaya Reef is in a fantastic position , on a small headland , looking back along the different sandy beaches towards a distant palm fringed headland . It is actually a true Honeymoon positioned hotel . This is a... more

The best place in Hikkaduwa, Very clean and very friendly staff. The hotel is in a nice location. The restaurant is just by the beach so every morning having breakfast by the beach was such a pleasure. The rooms were very clean. Overall it was a great experience. The manager was friendly and made sure all our needs were fullfilled.... more

Please do not stay at this hotel. It seems like it's run by the local thugs!!! Dirty, smelly and the whole hotel needs a good reconditioning. We checked out the very next day as we got horrible rooms and the service was below standard. Coral Gardens hotel was great. Stay there. more

The first impression is not too great as decor could be more exciting, but arrival was very efficient and we were given a very pleasant welcome. The rooms are fairly basic ( with TV and Fridge) but spotlessly clean with excellent air conditioning and shower / bathroom. During our stay the hotel varied from full to 1/3 capacity, but throughout... more

This holiday was by far the most memorable one of my life. We spent a total of 23 days in Sri Lanka with 18 days spent at Amaya Reef, Hikkaduwa. We are a family of four and therefore I booked two double rooms. All the rooms are sea view and our two rooms have really topped the cake with a... more

Can I give this place less than one star? My friends and I arrived just before 6 PM. We had paid for our rooms over a month in advance. The rooms weren't ready. Mine took almost an hour, as though they weren't expecting us. There was no offer of compensation such as a free drink at the hotel bar for... more

Stayed here for 1 night as part of a tour of Sri Lanka. As it was our honneymoon we got an upgraded room....I would hate to see what the non upgraded room were like!! The staircase up to the room was very narrow and steep and felt like we were climbing up and emergency exit! the room was quite small,... more

I have stayed in a number of hotels over Sri Lanka and this is one of the worst. The deluxe room we had was dirty - the bathroom clearly hadn't been cleaned in a long time (toilet bowl heavily stained and drain in shower completely blocked), the bedsheets were stained and had cigarette burn holes in them. We complained and... more
