Hotel a bit old in regards to room equipment, but staff very nice and supportive! The beach couldn't be better, one of the best beaches I saw in the island! Highly recommended!

Eva Lanka is a great Hotel. We stayed here for 3 days and had a wonderful time. The hotel is located on a hill, entrance gate on top, the beach on the other side, a huge garden in between. Free peacocks (which fly on top of the king palm trees at night to sleep) live here, amongst beautiful flowers. Make sure you take a chalet, they are spacious, very clean and most have a fantastic view of the sea. The hotel has two pools, and the beach, so there is more than enough space for everyone. Most of the time we were alone at one of the pools. The service was also really nice, we were always provided with water bottles and advice when needed. All in all from day to day we liked the place more, also because it is not just one of those typical standard hospital-like new built hotels, but a place that has its very own charm.

Great staff. Clean room. But the place could use some updates.

Where to begin? In a word, paradise. Eva Lanka is, as far as one can tell, paradise. My wife and I arrived on a Saturday evening and were met by the ever smiling and charming manager, Manju. We were issued with delicious welcome drinks then we were escorted to our ocean view chalet by one of the members of staff, all of whom are uniquely attentive, polite, helpful and also charming. The chalet was ideal – a very good size with a big comfortable double bed as well as two singles on which we were able to put suitcases and other travel related detritus. The en suite bathroom was also big with a large shower and generally good fittings. We were in no. 20 which I highly recommend – no passing traffic (of the human variety), a decent and secluded sitting out area, all overlooking a postcard view of the ocean and the smaller of the two beautiful salt water swimming pools. The hotel itself is set in the most stunning location – a beautiful tropical garden woven with wide pathways which wind down eventually to a small gate which leads to a flight of steps ending on the utterly jaw dropping and largely vacant beach. The upper pool is huge and is adjacent to the beautiful main open air reception area with its adjoining restaurant. Here, ceiling fans spin lazily overhead as you look out over the pool, garden and ocean beyond. At no time were there more than about 6 people using either pool, most of the time it was just us and a couple of others. The food provided by the hotel is also,

Beach is beautiful, the nicest weve seen in Sri Lanka. Breakfast was good; eggs fruit, bread, tea and coffee.We stayed in the standard rooms which unfortunately were old and in serious need of renovation. Aside from the curry the dinners were poor and due to the hotels location, options to eat outside of the hotel were limited. I think the hotel could be amazing if the rooms were renovated.
