Nice location on the lagoon.
The air conditioner did not cool. Chap brought a fan which did create a draft but it was still hot air. Eventually we changed rooms.

Situated close to the airport, Araliya Lagoon Park Resort offers not only great value but also a convenient location for traveler who is catching an early flight or arriving late. The room was clean, comfortable. The staff were friendly and attentive, making sure all our needs were met. This hotel is the perfect choice for a comfortable and convenient stay near the airport.

Freundliches Personal
Blick auf Lagune
Riesiges Bett
Flughafennähe
In der Lagune kann man nicht schwimmen, zu schmutzig! Und man kann auch nicht daran entlang spazieren gehen, die Grundstücke gehen bis ans Wasser. Der nächste Badestrand ist 8 km entfernt. Der Badestrand ist sehr lang und breit (+), kein Schatten und voller Unrat. Es gibt weder Mülleimer noch eine funktionierende Strandreinigung.(-).

Very good stay for a few nights in Negombo! Everyone is very friendly and helpful and I would recommend it to anyone for the price and the location.
Because of the location there are a bit of bugs- it’s not their fault it’s the region, just make sure to bring bug spray!

Proximity to the airport. Clean modern bathroom.
No coffee offered only tea, bed was hard as a rock, with no top sheet, so weird so I took this decorative thing on the bed and tried to use it as a top sheet. No chair or table in the room…. Made it difficult to deal with one’s luggage. Very limited outdoor facilities even though the property has a nice view, the guest really has no benefit for it. 4 plastic chairs on a sea wall. No restaurant, you have to walk to one of the nearby restaurants. Inexpensive, but really limited features… Biggest plus, sleep near the airport for an early flight.

Het uitzicht over het meer was mooi, je kan er helaas niet in zwemmen, er was een warm water douche en airco, dicht bij het vliegveld
Links en rechts van de accommodatie werden 3 nachten achter elkaar harde muziek gedraaid tot 24 uur
3 van 3 ontbijten waren exact hetzelfde
2 witte boterhammen met omelet een banaan en koffie of thee

Very friendly, they arranged travel commendations from the airport and from the hotel to Sigiriya.
Smiling and helpfull.
We were there under a storm and the staff came to clean and dry the room from some leaks.
The madress and linen had stains on it and the bathroom didn't smell nice

The place is close by the airport. Staffs are friendly
The airport pickup is way too expensive, they charged usd 10 for pickup for 3km journey. Better to use Uber or Pickme to order the car and it costs about usd 2-3.

Staff were incredibly helpful and helped us organise onward travel. Breakfast was good. Room was very clean. Located close to the airport and near ATMs / places to get a SIM card. Would stay again.
The airport transfer was overpriced at 10USD for a 7 minute journey
5.0
Great location very close to the airport. Management and staff were very friendly, informative and nothing was too much trouble. Breakfast was simple but tasty.
Being on the lagoon meant you had a lovely cool breeze blowing, enough to tone down the muggy heat.
For the price and location - no complaints. Everything was as described.

We went here with my husband last May 07. We booked this hotel in airport when landed. The room was huge, comfy bed, accessible to restaurant and mart.
The owner is very hospitable, he suggested places to visit since that is our first time in SL..
Breakfast is excellent..
Place is cozy.
We stayed just 1 night.

The gentleman in the front desk was very kind. He organized transportation to the airport and arranged packed breakfasts as we had to leave early.
- AC did not work and the room was really hot
- in addition to light shining through the room door, outside noices could easily be heard
- dirty room (see added pictures)
- it was fortunate we opened our food packets in the hotel and not the airport because a geko jumped out one of them

5.0
Such a wonderful stay. We had a 3am flight in and had arranged a pick up from the airport that went easy and we're in our bed sleeping shortly after landing. In the morning the staff brought us a wonderful breakfast. All the staff and the owner we're super nice and helpful. A hand full of restaurants just a stones throw away had good food. They even helped us get a local bus to the train station which was so helpful as we most likely would have gotten on the wrong one. We'll be back on our way out of Sri Lanka I'm sure!

The room is clean with a view of the lagoon plus shared balcony. The staff are very helpful from giving directions to our tuktuk driver to giving us places to visit/dine and booking a taxi ride to the airport.
The location is close to the airport and has nearby restaurants and shops within walking distance.

Lakshan was very friendly and welcoming. He was very accommodating and helpful for airport transit and a later check out. It was a really good location, close to the airport and food places, and a quick tuk tuk into the city to explore.
