Vi hade bokat sex nätter men var tvungna att ge oss av ( hals över huvud) pga utegångsförbudet så vi var tvungna att åka tillbaka till den adress vi kom från. Så endast tre dagar med sol och bad så vi är jätteledsna. Ett mycket bra hotell som vi gärna återvänder till

Off season stay at Anilana
The stay was really nice and the staff were super friendly. I got a good deal because of the off-season stay, but the rain did dampen the fun. But haveing a non crowded hotel was great as well :)

다시 선택하고 싶은 호텔
비수기에 4박 이용했어요. 사람이 없어서 너무 한가하고 조용했어요. 직원들도 친절하고요. 트링코말리 시내에서 좀 떨어져 있지만, 다시 또 한가한 시간을 즐기러 가고 싶네요.

Great staff and warm welcome
A lovely warm welcome from the staff at Anilana -beautiful pool and clean beach area ,poolside rooms spacious and fabulous bathroom. Delicious buffet breakfast with a great variety of Sr Lankan and Western choices. You will need to let them know if you want alcohol with your meals as they do not have a bar on site -staff were very accomodating and nothing was too much trouble.

Geräumige, gut eingerichtete, saubere und schöne Zimmer. Sehr gutes Frühstücksbuffet. Extrem freundliches und hilfsbereites Personal. Außenanlagen gepflegt. Unmittelbarer Übergang zu einem sehr schönen und sauberen Strand. Was gefehlt hat, war ein Fitnessraum.

8/10 Very good

We enjoyed our stay, the staff were particularly helpful and friendly. The property is located a little distance away from from any shops or other restaurants, but TukTuks are readily available and the food on site is good. There was no alcohol available at all which wasn't advertised or communicated before we arrived, but that seems to be common at present in Sri Lanka generally, we could buy from the shops in Trinco and bring it back if required.

Paisible
A part quelques problèmes d’insectes le premier soir dans la chambre, l’hôtel est parfaitement situé sur l’an plage calme de Nilaveli, et dispose de deux énormes piscines. Le personnel est serviable. Le bateau pour la merveilleuse Pigeon Island est a littéralement SUR la plage de l’hôtel. Bref... Parfait !

Amazing Anilana
Helt utsøkt hotell med super service på stranda i Nilaveli. God mat, fantastisk service og ei hel strand(nesten helt for deg selv - ihvertfall når vi var der i mars). Er du heldig så dukker det også opp noen aper på stranda. Super plass som virkelig kan anbefales.

Prachtig hotel, vriendelijke en behulpzaam personeel, a la carte eten is heerlijk en voldoende keuze. Misschien wat afgelegen voor sommigen, voor ons een bewuste keuze.

惊喜难忘的假期
酒店的设施和舒适都称不上一流，但是服务却格外贴心。 同行的好友恰好过50岁生日，按老经验，和酒店前台和餐厅打招呼询问是否可以安排一个蛋糕。出入意料的是，除了免费的蛋糕外，他们一再询问还需要什么额外的服务。几经沟通后，花了一些小钱，酒店帮朋友的50岁生日办成了小型烟火晚会，给朋友留下了惊喜难忘的假期。经主动的反复确认，还在蛋糕上写上朋友的中文小名，这服务绝对细致到位。 另外餐饮也很不错。入住当天是周末也是当地的公众假日，客人比较多，晚上正赶上烧烤自助餐。本还在纠结是否要吃自助餐，餐厅服务人员及时提醒我们不要错过，性价比果然很高，小青龙吃到吃撑。 美中不足的是，WIFI支持需要大大提高改善。房间几乎没法收发照片，只能坐在大堂里收发，且很慢。

Un 5 estrellas con alguna de regalo
Es muy agradable si bien es un poco incómodo tener wue pasar por recepción y comedores para ir a la piscina o a la playa. La piscina bastante sucia lo cual nos sorprendió. Personal muy amable y lo mejor la habitación, con la cama enfrente de una amplia cristalera pudiendo ver el mar aunque de lejos.
Xabier, 3-night trip

2/10 Poor

Unfortunately hotel is nothing what is displayed on the photos. The facilities are very old and poorly maintained. Inside the rooms the air conditioner vents are full of mold. The bathroom and the beach towels have several holes, worn out and some have some large stains (not sure if they were even washed). Hotel services are very overpriced, they take advantage of the tourists for the restaurant prices since there are not many restaurants nearby.

2/10 Poor

Bad management stuff
Management heads are very rude and they charged extra after we booked and paid. They didn’t ajust with anything. But the service boys did a good job they were very helpful. Also the guy called Fiaz at the front desk was good.

Heerlijke bedden
Fijn hotel aan t strand. Fijne ruime kamers, Heerlijke bedden. Hotel is hier en daar wat gedateerd, sporen van achterstallig onderhoud. Prijs kwaliteit is daarom niet goed. Op alle reeds hogere prijzen in het hotel komt 30% surcharge, dit is te gek!

Amazing location modern hotel
Great hotel and the most stunning location you can dream for, rooms stunning and large although sea view is actually partial sea view due to trees. Breakfast buffet is good but evening very average. Internet access is terrible worst we have had in Sri Lanka. Limited sun beds. Staff are totally amazing cannot do enough to help and oh did I say how amazing the location is, the beach is one of the best I have been to. Try to book mid week as there appeared to be less children then.

4 days of perfect R and R
We loved our relaxing time here. Staff were very friendly. Room was very comfortable although outlook could have been nicer (we had a garden view room with not much garden to view!). We were a family of 5 so had two rooms next to each other. Only improvement could be that housekeeping come to make beds earlier in the day. They always came at about 5-5.30pm which we didn't like. Breaky was great and heaps of food to choose from. Pool and lounge area was lovely. We ate a the hotel a couple of nights and had the lovely buffet dinner. Not close to any other restaurants (need to drive there) Beach and water was devine. Would definitely recommend a visit.
