Fantastico”

Buscabamos tranquilidad y sobre todo un hotel sin mosquitos y que tuviera buenas instalaciones porque los estándares de sri lanka dejan mucho que desear. Fue exactamente lo que buscábamos. Es caro pero merece la pena. Estábamos al lado de todo, restaurantes, playa, marcha pero allí había paz y tranquilidad. Unawatunaes muy ruidoso, todos los dias sin excepcion hay fiestas hasta las 6 de la mañana. Poder irte a tu hotel sin oir tanto ruido valió su peso en oro! La playa que tiene el hotel es pequeña pero cruzando una zona corta de piedras llegas a la playa principal que es muy extensa. Una maravilla!

Excelente hotel”

Este hotel sobrepasó nuestras expectativas, excelente bufet con muy buena relacion calidad-precio, exquisita atencion del personal y muy buena ubicacion. Repetiria sin dudar.

Estancia buena pero ruidosa”

El hotel muy bueno, habitacio es amplias y muy limpias. Personal excepcional.lo malo era que el hotel estaba entero en obras y habia ruidos y martillazos desde las 8 de la mañana.

22% de tasas/impuestos a añadir al precio del hotel”

Parece un desproposito la forma en que gestionan las tasas en la hosteleria de Sri Lanka, segun el alojamiento los precios que te cobran no estan sujetos a tasas/impuestos o te maltratan con hasta un 22% repartidos en varios concepotos. Este hotel es de estos ultimos y por eso resulta caro. Todo lo demas razonablente bien

El hotel esta super bien situado y es genial para ”

Tomarse un Jumbo coco tumbado en una hamaca en la playa no tiene precio....

Una buena elección en Unawatuna”

Una estancia cómoda, y agradable.

Sobrevalorado”

Sin playa, desayuno buffet lamentable, habitaciones pequeñas, precios elevados para lo que ofrecen.

Buen hotel pero caro ”

Great choice for families.”

We choose Calamander for the location which was perfect for us as a family being located right on the beach and with a pool. We stayed in a deluxe room with a pool view on the ground floor the room was spacious and ideal for the 3 of us. The breakfast buffet was outstanding with so much choice for western palates and those wanting a spicy start to the day.

Perfect Hotel”

Perfect Hotel in a very good location. Very good breakfast. Just recommended.

Great experience”

Nice place, beautiful people, relaxing swimming pool, special food...

Maybe not representastive after teror attacks”

We spent 3 Nioght at the Calamander about one week after the terror attacks of easer 2019. The hotel was fully booked, but hat 50 cancellations at that Moment. So of course everyone was sad and shocked. Staff could not always hiode these fellings, wich is absolutely ok. Seen objectively, the Resort is very nice. We hat 8 (!) other accomodations in Sri Lanka before and room, staff and service was very good and familiar. Place directly at the beach is very nice, bit the beach is not good for (children) swimming or even leaving small children allone. But: It was startinmg of the raining-season. We had everything we need, food was good, especially breakfast. For Dinner we tried out, biut decided to choose the Buffet only 1st evening. There are many small Restaurants around we liked more. ALso the little Shoppinmg-Road right behind the Beachhotels is very nice. WE were allowed to stay in opur Room until 34 p.m. because of pickuptime to the airport, wich was very kind.

nice place ”

Hotel is in a great location on the beach. Good spread of food. Staff excellent. buildings are bit old but acceptable.

Simple beach holiday”

Escape to sun and sand, relax, read a book. For local seafood visit Black and White restaurant next to the hotel. Book a pool view room for space, quiet and good views.

Staff so disappointing ”

it is with great disappointment is state that the staff has let us down by their lethargic service. other than that all hotel was superb and the location too..

Awesome beach, Good property”

Stayed in a family sea view suite. The room and bathroom were quite spacious. Got two pools. Not a direct view of beach from beach beds due to natural slope. Many eateries around with seafood bbq /shisha.

Location Fantastic”

Situated right on the beach at Unawatuna. 2 swimming pools, good restaurants, good sized rooms. Attentiveness of Staff could be improved; there was a lot of “not looking at customers”. Food was good; and competitive with all the restaurants along the beach. Good breakfast selection. The “red pool” was visually off putting but was perfectly ok. Just the red tiles instead of blue makes it look odd. But a nice sheltered area to sit in away from the beach. The other pool, long, narrow with see-through glass side, was adjacent to the beach and had a good sheltered by trees, area to relax next to beach. Overall, a good hotel with superb location.

Muy bueno”

The resort is in a perfect position with a great feel, however the rooms are very small, the balcony is basically unusable and the bathrooms need upgrading.

Great Location...Not Great Hotel”

First the positives: The location on Unawatuna beach is FANTASTIC. Really great. The breakfast spread in the morning is first rate (Sri Lankan breakfast all the way). The beds are comfortable and room size is good. The cons: For what you are paying you are not getting luxury. The hotel is NOT well laid out (split in to two halves and you actually have to leave one side of the resort to get to the other side/main building/main restaurant. Really dumb layout). The pools are not great especially the glass front pool which is super small. There are nicer places to stay in Unawatuna and I would recommend staying at one of those instead of here.

It was a value for money”

Mostly everything was in good situation. Except one bad incident. There were caterpillars in the trees near the second swimming pool (red one). That was a nightmare and had to take treatments for the scratches. Management should take care of this situation immediately. Other than than it was a good experience.
