Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
We wanted a place to unwind after a long day's travel, and Nico's was perfect. Possibly our favourite pool ever, with infinity views over the lagoon and birdlife. Local area is safe and friendly, but not touristy at all. Lovely staff, great food (not quick, but worth the wait). Brilliant start to our holiday, my wife already wants to go back.

Relaxing place

For us this was a rest day before catching our plane at 3am. Everything was good, friendly staff, spacious room with AC, swimming pool and food (excellent prawn curry). Only downside, if you want the attractions of central Negombo it is 8-10km away.

כנראה שברצועה המפרידה בין האוקיינוס ללגונה התשתיות קצת "חלשות" ריח של ביוב אפף את הסביבה הקרובה המקום עצמו נחמד החדרים גדולים הבריכה מפנקת לא אהבתי את ההתחשבנות עם ניקו הרגיש שהוא לא מתנהל ביושר וממציא לעצמו כל מיני חוקים משלו.

Remote location

Very remote location. Might be good for a couple or for a romantic get away but not for someone traveling alone and arriving late at night

Great stay, great rates.

Nico and his staff are hospitable and service oriented. Property still in the works but nice enough and the hotel itself is good. Slightly spartan, but final touches still being worked on. Good food and price is definitely right.

Idyllisches Hotel an der Lagune

Nico ist ein sehr symphatischer Gastgeber und hat uns sehr freundlich empfangen. Das Hotel hat sehr geräumige Zimmer und abseits der harten Matratze kann man nicht über fehlenden Komfort klagen. Die Klimaanlage hilft bei heißen Nächten und kann auch für Europäer angenehm hochgeregelt werden. Das Frühstück ist super lecker (besonders die Fruchtplatte) und abends konnten wir ebenfalls äußerst lecker Essen (Chilli-Chicken). Vielen Dank für den tollen Aufenthalt Nico und bis zum nächsten Mal!
