It is a great place if you like quiet holidays. No crowds, no traffic on the road. Located just off the beach. Perfect spot for swimmers. Suresh is super friendly, nice and help you with all your needs. There’s no restaurant but breakfast can be arranged and food delivered from a nearby restaurant by Tuktuk driver. The rooms are very clean and cozy.

The facilities were clean and safe, the hot water worked well, and although there were some mosquitos and gnats at night, our bed had a huge mosquito net and we slept comfortably and well both nights. It is within walking distance to local restaurants, and about 5-10 min walking from the main bus stand. The view is very nice across the water, and it is a nice calm environment despite it being right next to a road.
They seemingly have unlimited amounts of food! We were treated extremely well by the housekeeping/grounds keeping staff/family. They are incredibly kind and friendly. They cooked us an incredible meal one night, all fresh, and allowed my partner who is a chef, to step into the kitchen and learn Sri Lankan cooking one on one. We were treated to fresh lime juice and coconut juice, as well as many cups of tea and coffee (served in a French press).
The room is clean, though the lighting is a bit dark, it goes along with how the house is an old colonial/Dutch style home so it wasn't a big deal. Wifi worked well. Towels were thick and crisp.

It is an amazing city surrounded by the lagoon and the beach. The morning sunrise and the evening sunset is must see for all the travellars. The lagoon crabs and fish together with some tamil food should be a good stay. Pasikudah beach is just 30 mins away from the center city.

Nice place.
Nice place. Nothing exceptional in the way of sights but I found the town engaging. A pleasant place to spend a day.
One word of warning - my bus didn't stop at the bus station but hammered through heading south. Fortunately my hotel was just off the bus route and the bridge is a major landmark so when I realised where I was it was easy to get a tuktuk to take me there. But ask the driver if the bus terminates at Batti!

Hot and dry weather, but superb beaches and tasty food. Please try to interact with the locals there. Do not just mind your business and leave. They are very friendly and sweet people. There are a lot we can learn from them.
My favorite spots were the Kalladi region where there's only a little village by the sea.

It was great to stay on the lake eventually, at Riviera Resort which is central, and you could also walk to the beaches. This was after our bad experience at the previous place which we just left without even checking in. Relatively cheap, central, nice restaurant, superb service, clean and very functinal and spacious room and bathroom, 1980s style, but a clean and niceswimming pool, eagle nest, great views, and a great break going up the east coast. Nice laid back town to explore and meet the locals.
probably the only place in Batticaloa with a traditional open house and veranda with the classic view of Batticaloa lagoon with net fishing catamarans and fort
a home stay rather than a nobody in a mega hotel complex and unnecessary frivolities
freshly cooked food , all typical of eastern province and locally sourced or from the owner's organic estate and farm.
dawn, day or evening ,sitting in the planters chair on the veranda is great.
Juda is very welcoming and friendly! Loved staying here. He provided a delicious breakfast upon request and arranged a bicycle for me to ride around the city, all at an affordable price. Has great recommendations for food and things to do around town. Accommodations are neat and quiet. Great place to stay in Batticaloa! Walking distance to the beach and biking distance to the town.
The location overlooking the lagoon is wonderful despite being somewhat out of town and away from easy-to-hail tuk-tuks. The staff were helpful and the swimming pool was great. There is a restaurant on site that is open 8 am till 9 am. At the prices proposed it was wonderful value for money although a little sad as it was large but not very busy when we went
Juda is a very friendly and welcoming host. Beach is walking distance and the dinner recommendation was great and walkable. Wifi was super fast and the room was clean. We only stayed for a stopover night, but could really imagine that it'd be worth spending a couple of days in Batticaloa with Juda. Value for money is fantastic.
The first impressions were great and one of the most calm and relaxing places I have been to. The place is full with great hospitality and they were so nice and accommodating. One of the best beaches in Sri Lanka and the beach is just near to the Villa. Very much affordable rates and it’s worth to the amount you pay.
My entire family enjoyed our stay here. Felt like home. Excellent service by the Manager and all the staff. Very understanding and accommodating owner who checked up on things via telephone. Make sure you try out their variety of Sri Lankan cuisine made to order by their resident chef Mrs. Haren. Beautiful property.
This resort was lovely located, along the lagoon, close to batticaloa interesting points. Beautiful garden, pool and great food (order one hour before as they recommend and it's perfect !).
The room was confortable with hot water and fan. Great stay, i recommend !
Loved the food, fantastic variety of options and the local Sri Lankan food was brilliant - especially the fish sambol. Beautiful location, very peaceful and beautiful, with nice and comfortable rooms at a good price. Very friendly and accommodating staff
Super friendly and helpful staff, really nice location right near the beach and very peaceful and quiet area of batticaloa. Also helped me with some mechanical issues with my bike which was much appreciated. And had a lovely dinner and breakfast.
Really nice garden with bungalows. The owners are really nice and even made us some breakfast even though we didn't order it the day before. Very close to the beach, but there are no shops around so you have to bring something from the town.
Nothing. If it was advertised the price would have been ok. See below for the details.we have literally stayed in 100s of hotels etcand never felt so compelled to write a negative review.
Big hotel with pool and conference hall etc...not exactly a Sri Lanka traditional place which is what we look for as a tourist like us.
Everything worked including the elevator.
The rooms were clean, very comfortable, and the staff was amazing. Food 👌They went over and beyond to help make our stay enjoyable. I highly recommend this hotel for anyone .
