A great hotel on the paradise beach
"This property has all it takes to be a beach paradise and doesn't cost a fortune (thus you should forgive some minor faults). All the rooms have a sea view, the pool is almost straight out on the beach, and the beach itself is spectacular. It also doesn't feel like a chain resort, which in my opinion ..."

Batticaloa Hotel & Travel Guide\n

Travelocity customers dreaming about exploring Batticaloa, should think about pre-booking a room as early as possible, as there's not a huge range of hotel and apartment choices near Batticaloa's downtown.

There are only a handful of hotels within a short walk from the downtown precinct of Batticaloa. The Riviera Resort is a convenient choice for that fact that it is merely 2 miles (3 kilometers) away.

The Minn Gee Resort Passikuda can be found about 15 miles (25 kilometers) from the city center of Batticaloa. On the other hand, the Laya Waves is situated 15 miles (25 kilometers) away. Another possibility is to check in to the Maalu Maalu Resort & Spa or the Amaya Beach.

Polonnaruwa is 50 miles (79 kilometers) to the west of Batticaloa and features Gal Viharaya and Hatadage. Travelocity-listed Polonnaruwa rooms include the Hotel Sudu Araliya and Seyara vacation Resort. Or, stay the night in Pottuvil, 60 miles (96 kilometers) to the south of Batticaloa, where you can pick from the Coco Bay and Water Edge Resort. The Pottuvil Point and Muhudu Maha Viharaya Temple are popular attractions to explore should you visit Pottuvil.

Located 130 miles (208 kilometers) from downtown Batticaloa is Bandaranaike International Airport. Find a room nearby at Amagi Lagoon or Sun UP Hotel.

"Karpaha Sands is easily one of the best resorts we’ve ever stayed at. The personalisation here is unlike anything we’ve experienced elsewhere — from our incredible butler Namal (attentive, intuitive, always there when needed) to the cell phones provided to reach him at any time, to an anniversary cake, to arranging dinner at our room the last night. Manager Omberto and the entire team were genuinely warm & friendly throughout our stay. The food is phenomenal! Were talking 5* quality across every meal. Hoppers at breakfast, fresh jams, a dreamy tea selection, ceviches and calamari chapati tacos to die for, and a seafood feast that was beyond anything. The starlight cinema with sparkling wine, sweets and popcorn was pure magic. Luxury glamping rooms are stunning — beautiful design, incredibly comfortable bed, indoor tub with salts, outdoor shower, gorgeous lighting and a speaker for music. Days were spent bouncing between pool daybeds, eating and beach loungers with lovely afternoon snack surprises. The massages were so good I had to have a second one. The masseurs were so sweet & gave lovely massages. Beach walks were wonderful morning abs evening and the entire strip felt very private and quiet. The number of stray dogs was quite heartbreaking competing for food, sadly a big problem in Sri Lanka. A mass neutering program would go a long way. A hidden gem with world-class food, exceptional service, and touches we’ll never forget. We will 1000% be back."
