  1. There are zillions of beach hotels in SL and can be difficult trying to pick the good ones!

    I'm originally from Sri Lanka, so can give you some good advice.  Please use following website and check out the reccomendations I am about to give you.

    The website is a prestige travel specailist in SL - on their Homepage you will see a list on the left handside headed 'Sri Lanka Hotels'. To find the hotels I've reccomended, click on the specific coast area I have typed in Capitals - find the hotel from the scroll list, and click on 'read profile' which includes great photos.

    Now, since it's your honeymoon, I assume you are aiming for something special and romantic ..................

    Most beach hotels are on the West and South coast.

    The airport is on the West coast, north of Colombo, in a place called Negombo. NEGOMBO COAST has two hotels to reccomend - 'The Beach' and 'Royal Oceanic'.

    Still on the WEST COAST(south of Colombo City), is 'Blue Water' and 'Amaya Reef'

    On the South coast is the famous Dutch fortress town of Galle(GALLE COAST). 'Light House Hotel'(is quite expensive mind you, England cricket team's hangout!!), 'The Sun House' (secluded romantic place away from the crowds)

    Further south, THE SOUTH COAST is the 'The Fortress', again, a romantic get away.

    Hope this helps and whatever you decide on, have a lovely time and don't forget to go to see a turtle hatchery and release baby turtles at dusk back to the sea!!

    its really good hotel comparisons

  3. Recommendation:  Fortress Hotel, Koggala beach, Galle, Sri Lanka...

    One of the Small Luxury Hotels of the World, The Fortress offers 49 guest rooms in five different styles and sizes, and two suites.  The rooms use woods such as Mahogany and Burmese teak and feature large timber doors with wrought iron hinges, indigenous furnishings, naturally modern design and state-of-the-art technology.

    In 2005, the hotel was named by "Conde Nast" as one of the best new hotels of the world.  It has won countless awards for its food, service, design and detail.

    All rooms feature seven foot by seven foot super king-size beds with Frette Egyptian cotton sheets with a choice of three colours from which to choose; open plan bathrooms, courtyards or balconies with wonderful over the gardens, beach or Indian Ocean; a cutting edge entertainment system with a 60- or 42-inch plasma screen, a Bose DVD sound system, an expresso machine, air-conditioning, ceiling fan, private bar, day bed, in-room safe and IDD telephone.

    There are 11 "Fortress Rooms" (65 sqm) with an open plan

    open plan bathroom with twin-headed shower and bath. These rooms open out onto a guest’s own courtyard or garden balcony.

    The 12 "Beach Rooms" (70 sqm) are located on the ground floor.  These rooms offer views onto the gardens, beach and the Indian Ocean beyond.  Highlights of these rooms are rainfall shower and a split-level living area.

    [The favorite of my budget :]:  Additionally, there are 18 "Ocean Rooms" (70 sqm).  These are similar to the "Beach Rooms," but are located on the upper floor of The Fortress and feature high vaulted ceilings.  Guests also have the added feature of a Jacuzzi which from which magnificent views are seen.

    [My favorite! :]:  The hotel has 6 "Ocean Lofts" (140 sqm!).  These split-level rooms are luxurious and large. You enter into an oversized living room with indoor plunge pool, day bed, 42-inch plasma screen and Bose DVD sound system. Upstairs is the bedroom with a seven-foot by seven-foot bed; and a truly beautiful bathroom with both rainfall and wall showers.

    For the "Rich and Famous," there are also 2 "Fortress Residences" (240 sqm!).  These are nothing short of spectacular!
