“Beautiful location and welcoming host”
+The location is fantastic. The rooms offer direct sea views and the resort has its own private beach at Dikwella Beach, complete with free sun loungers. We were here in March and were practically the only people on the beach; every day you can decide whether you want to enjoy an affordable and delicious breakfast. The owner is very friendly and accommodating. Baby turtles are released into the sea almost every other day. It’s a 20-minute walk to Hiriketiya, or just under 300 LKR by tuk-tuk.
−The room and the bathroom could do with a few more storage options, such as shelves or hooks and the bathroom door was difficult to close

“Quiet and peaceful place to stay in Dickwella”
+Right on the beach and very close to shops and town. There is a turtle hatchery at this place and they let us release some baby turtles back into the sea which was wonderful.
−The facility needs to be better kept and the rooms were a little run down.

+Our room was on the first floor , we had a lovely view of the beach through the trees. There were sun beds readily available . We even managed to get our laundry done at a reasonable price. At this hotel the owner also hatched turtle eggs and released them at 17.30 . It was amazing to see. When we left he offered to give us a lift to our next hotel at a very good rate.
−Nothing

“Beautiful location. Very clean accommodation.”
+Our room was spotlessly clean. One of the cleanest room during our stay in Sri Lanka. The bed was very comfortable. The air conditioning was very good and quiet. The hosts were lovely and gave us King Coconut and watermelon juice. We only had breakfast on one day and it was good. Best of all was the amazing location. Steps away from the most beautiful beach. We watched our host release baby turtles while the sun was setting on our first evening which was a lovely sight
−We struggled with wifi. It was only effective when we were on our patio. The shower was also quite weak. We found the room we had a bit small but it was as advertised so can’t really complain about that. All that said the location made up for the shortcomings.

“Absolute Gem in Paradise”
+We had the best stay at Moon Light Beach Resort! The beach is unreal with swimmable waters and only a handful of people as far as you can see. It was the perfect place to relax and unwind. We are so sad we only had two days. The hosts are great and super helpful. Their Sri Lankan breakfast was our favourite of the trip. The property is beautiful with only 6 rooms. The rooms are modern, large and clean. They are also only steps from the beach with every room having a view. Close great restaurants. So glad we stayed here verse the hiriketiya area which was super busy with tourists. We hope to be back one day! Thank you thank you!
−Everything was perfect in every way

“Keine Empfehlung”
+Die Unterkunft wäre so schön gelegen direkt am Strand.
−Leider war unser geplanter Aufenthalt alles andere als wie erwartet. Das Hotel ist ein nicht fertig gebautes Haus, der obere Stock fehlt und auch von innen fehlt jeder gemütliche "Finish". Das Zimmer ist leider auch sehr kahl eingerichtet (obwohl wir das "Deluxe"-Zimmer hatten) und das Bad war nicht sauber (Flecken auf den Armaturen, Krabeltiere). Dazu kam der sehr unfreundliche Empfang. Wir haben uns daher entschieden, unseren Aufenthalt abzubrechen. Wir verstehen, dass wir in Sri Lanka sind, wo andere Standards gelten als in Europa. Aber wir haben für teilweise viel weniger Geld viel schönere, herzlichere und sauberere Unterkünfte im Land bekommen. Daher können wir die positiven Bewertungen leider nicht nachvollziehen.

“Exceptional cheap location to enjoy ocean”
+Fantastic place almost with your private beach. You can enjoy océan swim (be carefull the stream can be tricky) and you have Nice restaurant near by. The room are confortable with efficient AC. The breakfast are very good and they will adapt to what you want.
−The hotel garden could be improved but the location is irreal. The shower water pressure was a bit low
