The staff were friendly and lovely. Unfortunately, the place was not great. We had no WiFi and the rooms were not that clean. Lots of dust under the bed and old sheets. They had dogs all over the property and there were two dogs that would chase people walking along the beach. No curfew at the pool and all the rooms face the pool. I was up past 10:30 listening to people in the pool. No kettle, tea or coffee in the rooms, but the staff did make tea for us and we did not get charged for it. If the rating was just on the staff I would give it a 5.
Customer survice- speek broken Sinhala and English
Food - not worth that price
Facilities - no TV, no chars, no room service, no hot water for drinking, no shampoo in the room
Our experience of the Rocco’s was excellent! We’ve stayed there for 2 weeks on half board and everything was just great. The room are simple but comfortable, we had a cube on the upper floor allowing to store all our surfing equipment on the side in the shade and dry everything the same way.
All the people working there are extremely kind and professional and always here to help in any ways they just took all this experience to the next level. Amazing place with amazing people
Well overpriced. Only a small sheet to sleep under, no bathroom products, air conditioning hardly worked, they didn’t make up the room unless asked, pool was heavily chlorinated, there was no fridge or safe and the property had a terrible smell. Not worth the value at all

Great location
Lovely from the outside and grounds good
Nice beach area
Raja (older staff member is great!)
Rooms tiny and dull
No safe, fridge or tv
Beds only consisted of 2 sheets and you had to make your own
Rooms not serviced in 5 day stay
Bathrooms smelly
Not worth the money
Pros- Staff was very friendly and the property was beautiful. Located by the side of the beach and not too far away from the activities and partys in the area. Good property to relax and enjoy.
Cons - No TV in the rooms and breakfast must improve. I wish they changed their breakfast menu every other day cause if you stay for more than 3 days, it’s difficult to eat the same thing. Could be more organized during check-in.

Loved this hotel except for the service was a tad slow and there def needs to be fridges in the room as they don't serve alcohol. However there is a cool beach bar next door. Great position on a lovely beach.
Great location on the beach. Facilities were very clean. Room was modern and stylish. Breakfast was very good as well. The staff were all super friendly
We enjoyed our stay there for 2 nights. The hotel is right on the beach and the pool is clean and has a great view of the ocean. Food was good and staff were great. The room cleanliness needs a bit more attention. I felt the floor needs a good clean.
A new modern hotel very well located right on the beach in Arugam Bay. We had the ground floor beach front room, large clean room (house keeping is on request), decent bathroom with hot water. The swimming pool was lovely and there were plenty of sun loungers on the small private beach. The pool and the grounds were kept very clean. Breakfast was good and made to order and the WiFi was ok (though limited to 1GB per day per room). Staff were also very friendly. One side point we stayed at the beginning of Dec and Arugam Bay was very very quiet and the monsoon season had also started.
Niente da dire per il direttore gentile e aprensivo ,ma il resto terribile ,abbiamo dormito una dola notte ,poi ci siamo spostati in un altro hotel sempre di loro proprietà, leggermente meglio,poi abbuamo deciso di andare via ,scelta azzeccata,abbiamo deciso di girare lo sri lanka da nord a sud....
