Raja Beach Hotel

Sehr komfortables Gästehaus mit 6 riesigen Zimmern, alle mit privaten Balkon/Terasse u 1 Bungalow mit sehr grosser neuen überdachten Terasse inmitten eines grossen, gepflegten Palmengartens direkt am schönsten Beach von Balapitya. War in 4 Jahren zum fünften Mal hier bei Gastgeber Steffen, mit seiner lieben u hilfsbereiten Familie: Ehefrau Lalani mit Tochter Jessica, Bruder Bale u Schwester von Lalani. Sie sind zu meiner 2.Familie und zu Freunden geworden. Reservierung für 2025 schon vorgenommen. Im herrlichen Palmengarten tummelen sich ab u zu eine Affenfamilie, Streifenhörnchen, kl.Warane u Mungos, sowie viele Vögel. Ein tropischer Zoo für Naturbegeisterte.

Mein Aufenthalt habe ich sehr genossen. Vielen Dank an Lalani und Steffen, sowie an das liebe Personal. Besonders erwähnen möchte ich das exzellente Essen, was mir jeden Abend liebevoll und geschmacklich hervorragend serviert wurde. Alle waren sehr aufmerksam und dafür möchte ich mich vielmals bedanken. Der Urlaub wird unvergesslich bleiben.

I stayed at Raja Beach Hotel for eight nights. It is a wonderful, peaceful place that is great for relaxation. The hotel is surrounded by a charming garden with many large palm trees and other plants. The beach and the sea can be reached directly through the garden. The beach is very uncrowded, clean and spacious. The sea is fantastic for swimming. I booked three meals and was amazed by the chef's skills. Every meal was very delicious. The togetherness is very informal. I felt like at home among friends. I will be back and I 100% recommend Raja Beach Hotel.

Overall, the service was good and the staff very helpful, kind and caring. We could ask and learn a lot about Sri Lankan culture thanks to them, and it sometimes felt like being part of their family. We could have daily baths in the ocean and enjoy farniente in the small but lovely property. The location is maybe a little noisy because of the proximity of the ocean and its continuous waves. We were assigned a room at the first floor, and the heat may be tough to endure indoors, although showers and fans were always available to relieve us, though partly, from it. However, the multiple trees of the garden were offering us a welcoming, soothing shade. Food was good and fresh, coconuts freshly picked from the hotel's garden :-) The owner also helped us through the Sri Lankan Covid regulations thoroughly and has been an angel to us. His care and support relieved us from a lot of stress and hassle, and for that reason, we recommend this place, particularly for quarantine after arrival in the country.
