Citrus Hikkaduwa

Great location. About 10-15 min from the highway and right on the beachfront. The swimming pool was sometimes crowded, but still enjoyable. The staff were great, especially Mr. Gerard. We are vegetarians and the dinner menu had limited veg items, especially for Indian palette. Mr Gerard went out of the way and prepared additional dishes for us (veg pulao) and our kids (pasta). We tried most of the veg items on the buffet and it was great. Everyone was very friendly and hospitable. The beach was clean and beautiful and my kids had a really nice time.

We were a family group of 26, four generations ages ranging from 85 to 1. The restaurant was excellent. We had an all inclusive package. The chef came out and spoke with the group. He made off the menu dishes for our one year old child. All the staff were friendly and approachable and ensured the group had an enjoyable stay. The beach was clean and the hotel is located in front of a coral reef. The kids loved wading into the shallow water and seeing the fish and crabs. They enjoyed flying kites, playing on the swings and splashing in the swimming pool.

The location and the swimming pool. The bar area was also good. The views are also amazing

We got that hotel for a very good price and were really happy about the hotel although the reviews were mixed. Although the hotel is little bit old, they keep an eye on cleanliness and perfect service! Outstanding are the - staff service - most comfortable bed and pillows (like heaven!) Really good are - food - very clean (although the hotel is a little older) - pool During that time of the year, the beach in front of the hotel is not suitable for swimming. However, just a 5 minutes walk, there is a beach you can also swim during monsoon season. Definitely worth the money we spend!

Our experience at Citrus Hikkaduwa was absolutely amazing. It was just me and my best friend on vacation, being both girls travelling by ourselves, we felt extremely safe and the service was exceptional. Everyone was so helpful and polite! We stayed in a sea view double room and the view was just spectacular. The rooms were also very clean and perfect for our vacation. The food was also really good, especially breakfast. We both really loved how they had put a swing right in front of the beach which added to the lovely experience. The bartenders and dinner services were really great as well. Overall the entire experience was just lovely and I would without doubt recommend it to anyone! Being my last trip in Sri Lanka as well I would say it was the best vacation I have ever had so far. Many thanks to the team at Citrus Hikkaduwa!
