The room was of a good size and the shower had a great pressure and temperature. The pool was nice and the beach was fun to swim at. The buffet breakfast was nice.

We didn't purchase dinner with our package and it was quite difficult to get food outside of the buffet hours. The hotel is not located around many other restaurants.

Our stay at this hotel was absolutely wonderful! We had an amazing time with the family, enjoying every moment. The location is breathtaking, offering the perfect backdrop for a relaxing getaway. The room was spacious and comfortable, providing all the amenities we needed for a pleasant stay. The highlight for our kids was the fantastic swimming pool—they spent the entire day splashing around and having fun. The dining experience was exceptional, with a diverse array of dishes for both dinner and breakfast. The dinner buffet offered a wide selection of delicious options, while the breakfast buffet delighted us with a mix of local and continental cuisine. The staff were incredibly attentive and provided excellent customer service in the dining rooms, making us feel truly welcome. We highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a memorable and enjoyable stay. We’ll definitely be returning!

No Much complaint.

Very nice and spacious rooms. Big and comfortable bed. Hotel pool is also very nice and big. WiFi wasn’t working well during my stay, had problems to connect in the room (maybe because of some electricity shortage in the area). The beach in front of the hotel is quite dirty, garbage and plastic bottles lying around. It should be taken care of. Breakfast buffet is good as well. Fruits, cookies and cakes, white and brown toast bread, lots of rice and curry dishes. Some veggies. There is also a grill station where you can grab a sausage or bacon.

I recently stayed at Citrus Waskaduwa and had an amazing experience. The room was spacious, clean, and well-maintained, providing a perfect blend of comfort and luxury. The bed was incredibly comfortable, and the ocean view from the balcony was simply breathtaking. The housekeeping staff did a fantastic job of keeping everything spotless throughout our stay. The highlight of our visit, however, was the buffet. The food was exceptional, offering a wide variety of dishes that catered to all tastes. From local delicacies to international cuisine, every meal was a treat. The live cooking stations were a great touch, and the freshness of the ingredients really stood out. The dessert section was also impressive, with a delicious array of sweets to choose from. Overall, Citrus Waskaduwa exceeded our expectations in terms of both room quality and dining experience. I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone looking for a relaxing and enjoyable stay with top-notch amenities and food.

the bed was not that comfy. bed sheet and and quilt was bit wet.

We had a fantastic and enjoyable stay at Citrus. It was our first visit, and the staff was super friendly. A big shoutout to Mr. Deshan Ruwanthaka at the live station and BBQ area for being so helpful and considerate. There was also a great guy who cleaned our room, but I didn’t catch his name; I hope you can recognize him for his excellent service. He was such a lovely and friendly person. We stayed in room 230, checked in on the 14th, and checked out on the 16th of September. The entire team was incredibly supportive and welcoming. Looking forward to coming back soon!
