  A superb homely resort in a beautiful setting, with the most attentive staff - could not recommend highly enough and wil

  As a family of 5 with 3 young children the staff at the Kalla Bongo were incredibly helpful and accommodating, particularly the manager Chandana who went out of his way to meet each of our requests and to ensure that we had a fantastic start to our Sri Lankan holiday. The peaceful resort has a beautiful setting on Hikkaduwa Lake with canoes which could be borrowed. The pool was lovely, clean and well-maintained and our kids spent a lot of time in there. The resort is only a short (5mins) tuktuk ride from the main town of Hikkaduwa and the nearest beach. Each morning we were served a very delicious and generously portioned breakfast of fruits, eggs, toast, jams, pancakes etc and each evening we ordered a tasty dinner from the on-site restaurant. We were so well looked after and when we visit Sri Lanka again we will definitely be staying at the Kalla Bongo!

  Es liegt sehr schön am See, ab von dem Trubel und man kann dort gut runterkommen. Wir hatten das Glück, dass kaum Gäste da waren, weshalb es am Pool leer war und man richtig gut abschalten konnte

  Pleasant

  Location, Lake View, Pool. Friendly staff.

  Rooms are old. A lot of peel off of the floor. Toilet fittings are aged. Meals are okay but not worth the value for money (too expensive). Booking.com mentioned that the hotel accepts AMEX credit cards, which is an utter lie. I had to pay from my debit card (cash).
