Rockside Beach Resort

Nice territory, close to the sea, good places to eat around the area

Dirty pool, price is at high end and does not worth it, lots of mosquitoes, facilities and rooms are in need of well maintenance and cleaning, poor food for the New Year party.

The beach access and ocean view are the only good things about the hotel.

Old furniture unclean room unclean towels 1s night there was no water in the bathroom . Called them and they fixed it . 2nd day no hot water in the bathroom it took them over an hour to fix it so we could take a shower. Ac not cooling properly. Pool water is dirty and cloudy very bad experience not worth the money spent.

The location of the property is good. However the property as such needs a lot of improvement. The rooms are big, however the air conditioning in the room is not commensurate with the size of the room. The only positive which I noted for the place was its location and proximity to the beach.

The rooms were not clean, there was some kind of sticky substance on the floor. We were initially shown a room ( which is next to the beach). However this was so small that we felt suffocated. We were planning to check out (even though we paid for whole 2 days), however the staff accommodated us in a different room ( we appreciate this gesture). We decide to stay in the room as room was big enough with balcony overlooking the beach. I would say if properly maintained the property would have been nice. As mentioned above the room was not cool even though AC was running. Clearly a bigger tonnage was needed for the room. The bed blankets were old. The breakfast was pathetic. There were flies around the breakfast area and even on some of the food. The staff barely speaks English and was not able to understand us( however staff was courteous). We checked out after 1 night ( even though we had 2 nights). Someone who looks like the manager asked us the reason for early check out and we mentioned that rooms are not up to the mark. However there was zero response from this person. He just mentioned “ok”.Anyways - as mentioned earlier, if properly maintained, the properly is worth it. Also the pricing is bit on higher side for a properly like that

Good location

Mouldy bread at breakfast Reluctance of staff to provide water beyond a 500 ml bottle

Fantastic location, very nice staff (beyond their strict duties), nice breakfast, spacious room & bathroom

The location was ok

It’s was not 4 star as advertisedFacilities were minimalWiFi signal was weakCable TV was not goodBreakfast quality was poorMost staff did not speak good English

The hotel was located on a beautiful beach. Spacious rooms and balcony with pool and sea view

The breakfast was awful, nothing covered, and flies everywhere. The hotel is to far from anywhere, nothing much within walking distance .The pool was unusable at times during our stay due to building work to the hotel we were not notified b4 our trip.There was only 4 loungers by the oil for a medium hotel. The menu for food and drinks was very expensive, double the price of other places we stayed in sri lanka.

Having both a swimming pool and easy access to the beach meant we had the best of both worlds

The distance to Bentota meant we could not walk there which would have been our preference

Very friendly staff, the size of the rooms (we had 2) was awesome with a clear view to the beach and the pool along with a balcony, access to the beach was very comfortable. Breakfast was good and the spread was appropriate. The staff takes the cake, just everyone made it so good!

Very good location, the staff was also very good and polite, the room was neat and clean, the view was good, the food was nice, and the staff prepared good Vegetarian food for us. enjoyed the stay very much. the only problem was weak Wi-Fi.

Mosquitos.

cleanliness, food, AC didn’t work

Very cozy hotel with a private beach. We felt very welcome. The breakfast and dinner was great. The staff are very accommodating, they tried their best to make our stay amazing. Even the owner was helping us with our enquirers. The rooms are fairly comfortable with a stunning view of the ocean. Everything was just awesome!

Very early check-in (we came at 7.30 am and checked in immediately without additional charge), lovely area with coconut palms, private balcony with outstanding ocean view, good and clean swimming pool, perfect location for lazy holidays, picturesque rocks and wide sandy beach 5 km long, no crowds of tourists at all.

Very poor breakfast, quite far away from Bentota, good shops and calm ocean appropriate to swim. Overpriced place and restaurants around in comparison with south of Sri Lanka.

- Spacious room with air conditioning, fridge and a big nice bed- Every room has a balcony with the ocean view- Every day cleaning and free water bottles- An incredible scenic beach just 50m away from the pool. There were like 5 people on this beach at all times.- There are sunbeds at the pool and at the beach. Towels are provided by the hotel.- The pool is nice, our kid enjoyed it very much- Location is very quiet, there are mostly villas nearby, no big hotels. You can eat at the hotel, the food is ok. There are also some restaurants at the beach and a 5-star hotel restaurant nearby. If you need a supermarket or shops, there are always a couple tuk-tuks near the hotel, the ride to Bentota is like 5-7 minutes

- Breakfast has a room for improvement, it lacks variety and some meals did not meet our expectations- There is only one cleaning guy, sometimes you need to specifically ask him to clean your room- Bathroom fixtures are old and should be replaced. Everything works though

The location and sand beach is THE BEST in Sri Lanka, the hotel staff is very friendly and speak English, Russian and German. Hotel owner is a great guy, he organized a tour for hotel guests free of charge. Hotel also organized an awesome romantic dinner for us on the beach. I can't say enough about how great this hotel is, you have to visit to see. Recommend all 100%

Good location on a great beach. Nice pool. Good shower with hot water. The waitress is the only one who could speak and understand english,she was very helpful.

Poor choice for breakfast, food left uncovered with flies every where. The waiters don't understand basic requests,just laugh between themselves. The owner only interested in you if you book tours with him, rest of the time he ignores you. Non residents take over the sun loungers, leaving residents struggling to find one.

price was too high for the quality of facilities, food, service etc. location is amazing though. food was below average

over priced, bad food, average room . bedsheets , towels were old and not very clean.

We spent here a wonderful time! This is a very nice property, very clean and well kept. It is right on a nice beach and the hotel itself has a lovely pool (every day cleaning). The rooms are large with nice big balconies, sea-facing. The breakfast is very good. The staff are lovely and polite.

Everything was perfect!

Excellent value for your money. Boss in this hotel is exceptionally polite and overall hospitality level is exceptonal. Every our request or problem was assisted immediately and solved with awesome quality , and, be sure, this is very important for Sri!

This is about the place, not the hotel. Just be informed that waves on the beach (end of March) are high, so we often rented a car and visited southern beaches.

The best sand on the beach of all the beaches of Sri Lanka. Pleasant service and delicious breakfasts
