5 minute walk to the beach. There are good seafood restaurants close by. The pool is amazing and everything is very clean. The host can help with everything and they are prepared for everything as well. A big plus is the unlimited internet which is superfast as well. You can work and facetime on it easily.

This hotel is very close to goyambokka beach and also tangalle city. Room was comfortable, clean and big. Bathrooms are also very clean and had good hot water. Even this hotel located at the main road , there was no any noise. Nice place for relaxing. There was big pool with clean water(also has a small pool for kids).on our requests they arranged breakfast near the pool.They were gave superb breakfast.

Wifi was sometimes good sometimes bad. That would be nice staff becomes more friendly and helpful. That guy who works( not owner) , I asked little helps to carry our baggages but he avoided that and slowly go inside the house 😕.

Pool really nice, the owner friendly but not that must around.

Rest of the staff didn’t speak english and sometimes it felt like we were the only ones there. The towels seemed Old with stains. The bedsheets also had stains. The hole place could need a serious clean up, we past by the same big dead spider on the flour all 3 days we were there. One small fridge to share with other guest, it wasn’t clean and our stuff was gone same day as we but it in. Breakfast simple but okay.

Grand Residence is nice place with kind and helpful owner and friendly staff.

The room was big and confortable. The shower had hot water.

Breakfast could be better.

The hotel its self was great with 2 small children of 6 and 1, the beach was only a short walk away and the pool made it easy to entertain the kids. The hospitality of the family was amazing and that is what makes this hotel great, the owners of the hotel have 2 children who love to socialise with the guest children and that just made my older daughters days as she had someone here age to play with. Also a great thing that ended up being really helpful for us was having a doctor and a nurse on site because when my daughter got an ear infection we had it checked out straight away by the doctor who also gave us medication to deal with the infection and helped us sort out the visit to the hospital, so if you want a relaxed family holiday and a family friendly hotel its worth the visit.

So when we first got to the hotel the WIFI was not that great but by the time we left they had upgraded the router and boosters so it was much better and I could do my work, but I you are looking to do work everyday I probably would not recommend this hotel as its definitely more for a work free stay than a business trip or for us immigrating to New Zealand and still having to work on the way and the only other thing would be maybe some more variety with the choice of foods at breakfast but the food was great, I would have just liked a bit more variety. Overall my experience was great, I would just be aware that WIFI is not that good anywhere in Sri Lanka so its worth getting a sim card at the airport as a back up, try not to come to Sri Lanka to work remotely but to relax and enjoy the environment. If I did not have to work online with clients everyday this would have been a better experience.

I like the room

There is no staff.

this hotel has been excellent in letting my extend my stay during the current virus curfew. they do a very good breakfast everyday, and have also cooked me very tasty evening meals now that the restaurants are closed. room is clean and comfortable with good aircon, tv with numerous movie channels and news, recently built swimming pool is very nice too. many thanks

nothing

Great location ,close to the beach, breakfast and nice pool.

No fridge in the room

Perfect location, near to the hotel you can find really lovely beach and good restaurants. Nice area near pool.

It would be good if rooms had a balcony

When we arrived there was nobody to welcome us. We had to wait for sometime before a lady came out. She could hardly speak English. Everything that should be solved was via a mobile phone to some guy. The place he really needs maintenance. The common areas where dirt. Fridge not cleaned at all and not working. When we arrived there was no batter in the fan controller and aircondition not working. In the night during sleep water was dripping down the bed from aircondition. WiFi not working on top floor or pool area. This so far the worst accommodation we had in our 2 weeks trip in Sri Lanka. The only good was the breakfast and pool. You have to improve a lot on cleaning, maintenance and most of all customerservice.

Very good breakfasts, fresh fruits, local food. Nice stuff.

The cleanliness and comfort was really good. The service was excellent. The host who’s also a doctor went out of his way to give us the best possible comfort and took care of us extremely well. Having a pool is a great bonus to this property.
