    amazing views
    rooftop bar
    slow service

    Had a blast at Riff! The ocean views from our King Suite were amazing, and the rooftop bar felt super chill. Only bummer was the slow room service-I guess you can't have it all! Would definitely return again!

    Brand-new hotel with exceptional views as a bonus. Early check-in, late check-out, attentive staff. Extremely clean building and rooms with modern decoration. Perfect breakfast selection of amazing things. Reasonable base for exploring Hikkaduwa...

    eco-friendly vibe

    The rooftop views are breath-taking at sunset! We loved the eco-friendly vibe with paper straws and no chlorine in the pool.

    poor service
    spa facilities

    Stayed here expecting a 5-star experience, but little details ruined it. The staff were, let's say, not the best. Requests took an eternity. The spa facilities weren't maintained well, what kind of nonsense is that? I thought I'd at least get a special gesture for my troubles, but alas, I've been let down. I almost gave it a good review, but I just couldn't.

    Needs improvement
    5.0

    Nighttime in the room can be a hassle with lights from electronics affecting darkness and a not-so-tight balcony door letting in annoying wind noise. Trash accumulates on the beach outside, which detracts from the otherwise lovely setting. I encountered issues with water quality, occasionally receiving tap water in the glass bottles provided-something that shouldn't happen at such a price point. While the room is cozy, it could use a little more space for indoor tables, as the heat often makes dining outside less than ideal.

    local dining

    easy walks to beaches and local eateries nearby

    the nearby Narigama Beach is just a short stroll away, perfect for spending my afternoons soaking up the sun, and I loved how easy it was to find local eateries like Munchies Shack just a minute from the hotel for delicious meals throughout my stay.
