Beach Hotels in Eastern Province, Sri Lanka

I came here because of the name Trincomalee Maldives. To be honest, it is not comparable to the Maldives. But it is also a good tourist resort. I quite like this hotel. The rooms overlook the beautiful swimming pool and sea. It is so comfortable to sit on the small balcony and taste wine. The food in the restaurant is good. It's just a little awkward when eating. Although the cafeteria is fenced on three sides, smart crows and puppies will still sneak in from the unfenced side. The puppies usually lie under the table, while the crows will wait for opportunities to swoop in.

Very large hotel complex. Modern and large rooms with sea views. The spa area is great (very authentic and professional, OK price-wise). The food was OK (large selection, but unfortunately everything was cold). The beach is nice, but since there is a (dead) reef right in front of it with lots of dead stone corals, you can't swim there (you can't walk there without bathing shoes - risk of injury!!!). Best to walk 100 m to the left to the public beach (there are no stone corals there and swimming is possible) or 10 minutes walk to Kalkudah Bay/the opposite bay (there is a dream beach there)

Prepare to be captivated by the sheer beauty and serenity that awaits you at the Amethyst Resort Passikudah. My recent stay at this slice of paradise was nothing short of awe-inspiring, leaving me with memories that will undoubtedly linger for a lifetime. From the moment I set foot in the resort, I was greeted by a warm and genuine hospitality that set the tone for the entire stay. The staff's attention to detail and commitment to ensuring a flawless guest experience was truly commendable. Their passion for service was evident in every interaction, making me feel not just like a guest but a cherished member of an extended family. Nestled along the pristine shores of Passikudah, Amethyst Resort boasts breathtaking views that redefine the meaning of a picturesque escape. The crystal-clear waters, powdery white sands, and swaying palm trees create a postcard-perfect backdrop, providing an ideal setting for relaxation and rejuvenation. The accommodations at Amethyst Resort are a testament to luxury and sophistication. My room exuded a perfect blend of contemporary design and traditional charm, offering a spacious haven that instantly felt like home. The attention to detail in the decor, coupled with modern amenities, ensured a stay of unparalleled comfort. One of the highlights of my visit was the culinary journey offered by the resort's restaurants. Each dining experience was a gastronomic delight, showcasing a diverse array of local and international flavors. The talented chefs at Amethyst Resort have truly mastered the art of tantalizing the taste buds, leaving me eager to explore the menu each day. The resort's spa, a sanctuary of tranquility, provided an oasis for relaxation and self-indulgence. The skilled therapists and a thoughtfully curated menu of treatments allowed me to unwind and rejuvenate, making my stay a holistic experience for mind, body, and soul. Amethyst Resort also excels in providing a range of activities for the adventurous soul. Whether it's water sports, cultural excursions, or simply basking in the sun by the infinity pool, the resort caters to every whim and fancy. In conclusion, my stay at Amethyst Resort Passikudah was nothing short of magical. The seamless fusion of luxury, natural beauty, and warm hospitality creates an experience that transcends the ordinary. If you are seeking a haven of tranquility, where each moment is a celebration of life's beauty, Amethyst Resort Passikudah is undoubtedly the destination of choice. This hidden gem on the eastern coast of Sri Lanka has etched a special place in my heart, and I eagerly await the opportunity to return to its embrace.

Few people, good environment, good service, the hotel's special staple food for breakfast is delicious, the seafood set for two at the beach at night is great, especially the crab is very tender. Living in the jungle chalet, a small courtyard with an open-air shower, returned to the room after playing on the beach in the afternoon, a small snake came, took a small jump, a different experience, haha.

It is easy to go anywhere for sightseeing and you can play until late at night. The service of the hotel staff was good. The room was not a problem.

We stayed at this wonderful hotel from 13th to 16th August. We received the warmest of Sri Lankan welcomes; followed by refreshing juice, a sweet treat and cold flannels, much appreciated after a long drive. We checked into rooms 14 and 16, both extremely spacious, comfortable and spotlessly clean. They were maintained this way for the whole of our stay by house keepers Thulan and Lakumal. The whole property is beautiful and extremely well maintained, throughout. The restaurant here is superb! I met with the chef to discuss our requirements as a family of vegetations and one of us with a food allergy. We were incredibly well catered for and accommodated in respect of this. The buffet breakfast and dinner offered plenty of choices, the presentation and maintenance of the foods offered was exceptional. Regrettably we didn’t actually take any pictures of the restaurant as we were too busy tucking in. Thank you so much to all of the restaurant and chef teams in particular Keven, Tharusha, Saman, Sujeewa and the head chef himself. We had plenty of time to relax and enjoy swimming in the pool and incredibly warm sea. We also enjoyed renting the bikes here; one bike ride just the four of us and another with Dinusha who kindly accompanied us on a tour of the local village so we could learn more about life here. Dinusha was incredible kind and patient, we learnt much during our few hours with him. We definitely recommend this experience to learn about real life here in Pasikudha. Thank you so much to the lovely gentleman with glasses at the front desk, I didn’t make a note of his name but he was so kind and answered all of our many questions during our stay. The manager Mr Morais, is always around and checking in with guests and ensuring a smooth running of the hotel, it was refreshing to see such a hands on approach by a manager, he was a pleasure to chat to. I had a reflexology treatment with Dewi in the spa it was a lovely experience from start to finish and I felt so incredibly relaxed afterwards. All in all we had a perfect few days at the wonderful Uga bay. We are already planning to return to Sri Lanka next summer and will definitely be adding a stop here as part of our itinerary. You have a fabulous team here, thank you so much to all of you for taking such good care of us, we cant wait to come back.

I was able to stay without any problems this time. The clerk were kind. The room is very clean. The location was very convenient.
