The property is out of this world, one of the most amazing hotels I have ever stayed in. The swimming pool is to die for, grounds beautiful and the beach amazing too. The property is surrounded by beautiful trees and palms, the rooms spacious and comfortable.

The food selections is fine, but somewhat limited in choices. Some days we were told that a certain item had simply run out, or not available which was disappointing. The staff are perhaps a bit ‘too keen’ at clearing plates as soon as one has finished eating.

The Staff are very helpful and courteous. The room was clean and comfortable. The Beach was very clean. The Kitchen staff also very well trained and helpful. Breakfast was adequate. Beach Staff was very helpful

The Beach Bar food arrived luke-warm (and took a long time to arrive) when this seafood should be served cold or hot - I was poorly that evening from this The Beach Bar prices was too high for the quality The following day we ate at the main restaurant and the food was served hot and fresh

For our second visit to Passikudah we chose Anantaya Resort and we couldn't have chosen better. From the first moment to the end we were looked after by the friendly staff, especially Rishopana and Kanogitha. We booked this resort for a room with direct access to the pool and we were lucky to get perhaps the nicest room. But what makes this resort special is the people who work here. We also spoke with the friendly beach/pool attendant S. and likewise the waiters and cooks at breakfast and dinner did everything they could to make the guests happy. Excellent Sri Lankan breakfast and dinner. My husband was delighted that the waiters here could spin a beer with a foam cap. The room was very nice and clean. The pool was cleaned regularly too. Free sunbeds on the beach. Beautiful beach and walks. If we had not booked another stay before, we would have stayed longer. We will definitely be back here soon!

Everything was great

Garden and the pool

A la care menu.. I was disappointed with the see food grill it was too much grilled and there was nothing to eat and no crab cutter provided. It’s not worth for the money.

Position excellent.

Our only comment would be wait for food when ordered from the a la carte menu or room service. Buffet is obviously instant and hot beverages came quickly with breakfast. But if ordering off a menu, the food took a long time to arrive (talking an hour!) Spa needs updating. Also better signage. Otherwise lovely.

beautiful hotel, wonderful pool, great rooms. pool barman was exceptional! nice calm beach. loved it all!

dinners and service to be improved. overpriced in comparisson to other hotels next. a lot of extremely impolite russian tourists during our visit which made our stay uncomfortable (not hotel fault of course, but some issues were related to hotel staff as well).

Location! And the set up of the resort is spacious and very nicely done. But they should organize beach clean up around the hotel. The plastic waste is a big problem.

They still give plastic drinking water bottles. Please provide glass bottles and refill to prevent more plastic waste.

Lovely pool. Lots of shady trees where the beach lounges are. Beautiful beach. Great friendly n helpful staff.

Entrance to the room n bathroom had a bit of an off putting smell.

The resort was beautiful and we had a fantastic room upgrade that was beside the pool with great views. Everyone at the resort were top class and couldn't have been more helpful.

We were there in March and were told it was off season. So most of the restaurants and bars were closed and we were limited to one temporary eating area. There were very few other people at the resort, less than 10, so the resort was pretty dead after 8pm. Would like to go again when its fully open

Great setting, outline and design of the resort in nature, great large pool, fantastic beach with the best swimming in ocean we had on this 15 days trip Friendly staff, privacy, great place to relax by the ocean Ocean view, decent room size Deep sea fishing

Problem with water in room, but quickly fixed by moving to another room Food options limited compare to other hotels of this cost, but understandable due to low client numbers Limited options on local restaurants
