We stayed with Arshed and team for 8 nights; family of 4, boys aged 8 and 10. Sri Lanka in general has been my favourite place to have ever visited. The culture, the people, the food and the stunningly beautiful environment made for an adventure of a lifetime. Sun Siyam optimises all of these in a relaxed effortless way. Nothing was too much trouble for the team. The hotel was very comfortable and spotlessly clean. They organised everything, from the pick ups to the excursions, 1 to 1 cookery classes on the beach to whale watching, safari and fishing to name a few. It was humbling to see a hotel care for the area it's in from employing locals to keeping the beaches clean. The food was exceptional and was paired perfectly to the wine by Thusitha, who also looked after us during our stay. The service was outstanding, and we felt particularly well cared for and the boys were well looked after. This was the first trip I booked without a tour operator but this allowed us to book internal air transfers with cinnamon air without being charged a fortune so the transfer from columbo to sun Siyam was an epic way to begin our adventure. Ivery much look forward to staying here again.

Review of the Sun Siyam Hotel in Pasikudah . The pearl of the east coast, located on snow-white sand surrounded by a coral reef, between the bays of Vandalous and Kalkudah, is one of the Sun Siyam ho𝗍𝖾𝗅 managed by 𝖠𝗋𝗌𝗁𝖾𝖽 𝖱𝖾𝖿𝖺𝗂. 𝖥𝗂𝗋𝗌𝗍 𝗂𝗇 𝗅𝗈𝖻𝖻𝗒 𝗓𝗈𝗇𝖾 𝗍𝗁𝖾 Guests are greeted by a bright and stylish design, which leads to the road 𝗈𝖿 the delicately hidden villas. In the center of the territory there is a large 𝗉𝗈𝗈𝗅 with beautiful illumination at night. If you want privacy, you can relax 𝖺𝗍 your private pool in your room. 𝖠𝗍 𝗍𝗁𝖾 𝖻𝗎𝖿𝖿𝖾 area there is a 𝗐𝗂𝗇𝖾 𝖼𝖾𝗅𝗅𝖺𝗋 with an impressive collection of wines and champagnes. For sophisticated guests, having a glass of Dom Perignon at sunset of the outgoing day is perfect! Whole hotel makes with love, so you may not worried about something, the hospitality staff will always help you. Today it is one of the best hotels on the island of Sri Lanka, so your are always welcome!

Very spacious and clean. The room was air conditioned and the facilities were adequate for an all in one stay. The pool is massive with lots of sun chairs and they serve your snacks and drinks at the pool. The pool is hot for someone who prefers cooler waters. The beach front location is nice. Food is great with buffet style breakfast and dinner. The staff are super friendly with moderate English. The manager speaks English very well.

Pool was too warm.

The setting is very tranquil, and the rooms are of an excellently high standard. The food is very good quality, with a vast selection to choose from and the staff could not be more attentive.

The beach directly in front of the hotel is home to many crustaceans which deters you from swimming.

First of all price and quality all full match . Good and big rooms , really tasty food , attentive personal , good beach and that’s worth it if you want to swim and get some Sun . For sure it’s perfect for this money . I’m highly recommend this place for eaither family vacation, romantic one or with friends ! Below there will be minuses that we don’t like . But still it’s very goood

No slippers in the room , no A/C in restaurant , shallow sea ( you should know this ) , for 5 stars hotel there is not enough towels . For me biggest issue was that locker safe can be taken in hands and just it . I was afraid to hold my stuff there .

We really felt like at home, kind staff, many services and great private beach! Very recommended :) Thank you team

My wife and I stayed at Sun Siyam Hotel and had a fantastic experience. We enjoyed the delicious food, especially the crab curry. Our room was very spacious and included an indoor pool, which added a touch of luxury and relaxation to our stay. The pool was clean and well-maintained, making it a perfect spot to unwind. The beach is stunning, and the staff provided excellent service with a warm and friendly attitude. I also noticed that the General Manager oversees all departments efficiently, ensuring a smooth experience for guests. I highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Eastern Sri Lanka!

This is definitely the nicest hotel along this stretch of beach. The pool was absolutely amazing especially as it's not a great place to swim in the sea on this particular part of the beach due to corals shallow water. If you want to have a good swim you need to walk further up the beach. but the pool was so great I didn't care! The setting is fabulous. I loved the crows in the palm trees and the nature. The room was huge and extremely comfortable. The pillows fabulous and the mattress and everything really comfortable. I loved that they had the option of a ceiling fan. I did look at the other hotels on a walk and I'm glad I picked this one ! The laundry service was fantastic and managed to get a stain out of a really badly stained shirt. Miracle workers! The staff are very kind and helpful and will go out of their way to make things nice.

There is no need for AC at this time of year and when I came back to my room all the lights were on and I think the AC had been turned on and then off which leaves a slippery film of damp on the floor. Honestly, the fan is enough and I wish people would take into account climate change and be more ecologically minded i'm not automatically put on the AC when it isn't . The Hotel needs to take this in consideration and turn off lights etc. when not needed. Clients, too, need to stop using AC when it really isn't necessary and not even hot. The breakfast could have had more vegetarian options. For instance, there was a chicken curry and a fish curry but no vegetable curry.

The resort is an oasis of calm. It gave my wife and I the space to relax and enjoy each other. The staff especially Arshed the general manager and Farhan went way above and beyond to make our stay so special. They arranged snorkeling and an elephant safari, we also have some dietary requirements that they catered to without missing a beat. Truly a wonderful experience.

It's not a tourist center. This makes it such a mellow place but it takes time to get anywhere. There is a small village with a pharmacy and a market but not many real stores.

Beautifully renonvated stylish resort in a peaceful and discreet part of the beach. Very kind, warm and attentive staff who went above and beyond to ensure our stay was extra special - one example being the staff hosting a cute movie for our children on the beach one evening at short notice which our son loved. There's a fantastic main pool where we spent many hours swimming and sipping fresh mixed fruit juices. A particular highlight for us was the delicious authentic Sri Lanka breakfast with some very tasty curries and Sambols. Arshed, the GM was a champion and took great care of us, even managing to organise a massage for my wife at another local resort when one of female masseuse was away on holiday. Thank you Arshed!

The Crows will steal your food if you let them. Sea at the front has some coral unlike other swimming areas of beach. Not many options near to the resort if you want to try some other food outside.
