My husband and I have just returned to the UK from a wonderful 3 weeks holiday at the Coco Royal Beach Hotel in Kalutura, Sri Lanka. We were in room 211 from the 19th February till the 11th March 2024. When we arrived at the hotel 6.30am in the morning, the Manager Mr Randun was waiting to welcome us such a nice man. During our stay he was always asking if all was ok and if there was anything he could do for us. He was waiting to say goodbye and wish us a safe journey home when we were leaving too. Ragu the receptionist checked us in, such a lovely young man always had a beaming smile and so helpful throughout our stay. So was his supervisor Bradley. We were shown to our room by the House keeping Manager Kosala yet another polite and helpful young man always asking if there was anything he could do for us. Our room was large with a balcony overlooking the beach and sea. All his staff who cleaned our room did an excellent job. We went to the pool where we met more helpful people the pool attendants Nuwan, Manoj and Chandika who couldn't do enough for us and everyone else. At dinner and breakfast the restaurant managers Akila and Suchira and their staff was so good. Nothing was any trouble to them all they wanted to do was make us happy and enjoy our meals. The Barman who rounded off our evenings with the best cocktails ever and the best Aarack cocktail was Kanishka. All the staff at this hotel are absolutely amazing, very hardworking and wonderful people who always greeted you with a smile and nothing was too much trouble for them. The hotel has recently been taken over about a week before we arrived and will be renamed shortly. Already upgrades are taking place so any shortfalls will be improved. We have no hesitation in recommending this hotel. Thank you to all the staff at Coco Royal Beach Hotel for making our stay in Sri Lanka one we will not forget.
