Hotel Riu Sri Lanka

TripAdvisor Review
Sri Lanka, Indian Ocean
Ahungalla

Hotel Riu Sri Lanka is located right on the shore of Ahungalla beach in south-west Sri Lanka. It is an ideal option for an exotic vacation where you can enjoy the incredible beaches of the Indian Ocean and visit the wonders of this unique country while taking advantage of all of the hotel's amenities and services.

Enjoy an exceptional stay together with your significant other, family or friends. You can relax at the hotel's spa & wellness center, thanks to the beauty treatments and massages (paid) available or at any of the hotel's three fresh water pools, the children's pool, the terrace-solarium or at the gym. If you prefer activity over rest, take advantage of our great adult entertaining program and RiuLand for kids, both includes various sports and other leisure plans, as well as Riu-Art activities.

TripAdvisor Review
Great hotel spoiled by the influx at weekends

Our 4th stay at this hotel and sadly we won’t be returning , come weekends it changes to all I can describe it as a 18-30’s holiday in Ibiza . Locals ascend at the hotel staying 1-2 nights making the most of the all inclusive. Buffet turns into a canteen and you struggle to get seated , people passing out in the pool from too much drink and throwing up around the sunbeds. Not your typical RIU .

On a positive note still looks as good as it did when it opened 9 years ago. Spotless clean and a great variety of food and beverages. 3 pools to choose from and no need to rush for sunbeds as there is plenty to go around . Nightly entertainment and games at different times during the day. Tuk tuks at the back are approachable and cheaper than the ones at the front . We used Booty (Leo) . He Will tailor the tours to suit , cheaper than TUI and cover more. Beach sellers - Dipika and Desika they are extremely friendly and trying to making a living . Everything is worth a haggle and would make their day if you went down to say hello and purchased something.
