      “A perfect one night escape ”

      Yesterday we stayed one night on a half board basis at Coral Sands Hotel. It was a great experience—comfortable rooms, delicious food, and friendly staff. The location by the beach made it even more special. Highly recommend for a relaxing stay.

      “Awesome 🤩 ”

      The stay was awesome and the staffs are really cool and helpful. Though they didn’t have much variety on food still there were some superb dishes. And finally the location. The beach is clean and the water is crystal. Looking forward to visit this place again.

      “Nice location.”

      Compare to other hotels nearby, this is in a better spot. Reasonably clean facility and a good size pool. Buffet is kind of pricy for the many list but it is there for convenience. In a short walk on your right side you have few restaurants. Also there is a Pizza Hut across the facility. Eating outside would save you a lot.

      “A Splendid View of Ocean”

      Coral Sands a beachfront hotel in the middle of the Hikkaduwa beach. We went there to do snorkeling, and the site was just few steps away from the hotel. We watched a splendid Sunset on the day we arrived and stayed overnight to experience the cozy accommodation. The staff was so friendly that they extended out check out time upon our request. We had the breakfast from the hotel on the second day and it was delicious with many options. Coral Sands made our day a marvel.
