We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Waterland. It is convenient for the airport but in a quiet spot, situated by the river. It is beautiful. We had a great private villa with a good size pool. The staff and service were excellent. In particular Raganan was brilliant and looked after us very well. Incredibly good value for money and a short Tuk Tuk ride into Negombo town.

Very friendly and helpful staff, location is very isolated so you enjoy some peace of mind during the day but its bloody scary at night specially your inside a jungle riverside, not flexible at late checkouts which

friendly staff, lots of power cuts when we were there. Air conditioning wasn't working properly so the room was very hot. We were only there for one night so didn't really get into the feel of the hotel but we would have looked for somewhere else if the problems continued. breakfast was not very good.. Bread basket consisting of 2 hard croissants, 2 cup cakes and 2 hard boiled eggs! really less than impressed.. they did reduce some costs because of the issues, which was good of them. there was no view of the canlal from the room, due to a privacy there is a hedge obscuering the view.

Generally excellent with very good staff, but with just a small complaint. The room was lovely, but small things slightly spoiled it, such as the air conditioning was not very effective as the netting over the bed prevented the air from getting to you when you slept, which made it very stuffy. And while the bathroom was spectacular, the shower went everywhere. On the plus side the staff were wonderful and the food delicious.

Waterland has excellent facilities. We enjoyed our private plunge pool. Some might find the out of town location a little inconvenient, but we liked being along the canal near the river estuary.

We found Waterland quiet and tranquil nestled between a river and canal and close to the beach (about 600mtrs away). Quite surprising as you are close to busy/noisy Negombo City. The Staff, rooms and meals were excellent. Normally we stay on the beach where there are more restaurants and activity, but as we only stayed one night this did not bother us. It would be a good location to do day trips from. We stayed in a Canal View Room but really it should now be described as Garden View as plants and shrubs have been grown to ensure privacy from the canal and dwellings on the other side.

We had the nicest stay in Waterland. Located in a fishing village, the villa offers a super pleasant experience in terms of comfort. You get to see life in the village as it is, every day...a genuine and true sri lankan life experience which you carry with you for the whole life. Beautiful villa, beautiful people, exquisite surroundings, nature, birds, elephants, monkeys...Loved everything, hope to be back...

We stayed at Waterland on our first night in Colombo for one night and the main issue with our stay was that it wasn’t for long enough. Me and a friend arrived at different time and Waterland arranged for both of us to be picked up from the airport. The hotel is a little way out of Colombo but it is in a lovely, quiet setting. Upon arrival, we were each greeted with a delicious drinks and shown around the apartment (even though my friend did not arrive until after midnight). Waterland also arranged for us to be taken to our next stop. The apartment was massive, with a sitting room and 2 bedrooms each with a large on-suite. We also had our own private pool and balcony with an amazing view of the waterways. The apartment was very clean and tidy and the pool was great (even though we only got to use it for a short time in the morning. Breakfast was quite traditional – fresh fruit, curd and honey (if you haven’t tried this – you must) followed by a hot option of your choice, served with drinks. The service was great, the apartment was great – we are just sorry that we didn’t book in an extra night!

Clean hotel although room smelt strongly of moth balls which were placed in the sink drains, shower drains and toilet. The smell transferred to our clothes and we could smell it days after leaving the hotel. I would have preferred a mosquito net rather than the UV-light bug zapper unit underneath the TV. Aircon and fan worked well. Quiet location, next to picturesque canal in a residential area so tuk tuk or a taxi journey required to beach or local restaurants (10 mins, approximately 3-4km away). Disappointed with 'restaurant' onsite, limited to tomato or carrot soup for dinner unless you pre-order main dishes 2 hours prior to restaurant opening time.
