I really liked the area, beautiful large beach.
I really liked the area, beautiful large beach. The hotel I stayed at were really professional and great value for money. There are quite a few places to eat around but during this time many places were closed due to the escalation of the Corona Virus. They do offer water sport activities around the area but it was just nice to have some peace.
The people around do love to try and sell you items even when you say no, so be adamant and don't entertain them.

It is a lovely and famous, coastal area in the capital.
It is a lovely and famous, coastal area in the capital. However, beach-front properties are often fully booked and are expensive. The area is quite safe for anyone. The beach is beautiful, but locals don't recommend dipping in the sea here as it is considered too polluted.

If you are a beach lover and need to be closer to the city,...
If you are a beach lover and need to be closer to the city, Mount Lavinia is best as it has one of the best beaches in Colombo. There are many amenities for tourists. Hotels , shops and restaurants and fast food places like Burger king, Pizza hut, Mc Donakds and KFC..Mount Lavinia Hotel with its history and location has great sea views with its own private beach. Delivers a 5 star service. The hotel has a variety of dinning oprions including a buffet with local and international cuisine. Well known for its sea food dishes and run by a famous local celebrity chef. Beach reatarants are scattered along the beach, a few mins walk along the beach and there are many bars and pĺaces to eat. Shore by O or Sea Breeze restaurant are couple of many. In Dehiwala a short Tuk ride away , you will find good beach restaurants like "The Station " and "Barracuda". Mount Lavinia Railway station is also a few mins away from the main road which has direct links to major cities and tourist attractions like Anuradhapura, Galle and down south towns. Kandy,Ella and other destinations can be accessed via a change at Fort main station. Trains to Anuradhapura and Jaffna starts from Mount Lavinia.The city of Colombo is easily accessed via the train to avoid traffic and congestion at peak times. Mount Lavinia has a Golden sandy beach with hired sun loungers and deck chairs. Have to cross the railway line to access Beach and no flat surface for buggies or wheelchairs. Please be aware when crossing the railway line as trains can approach fast. Please also be aware of sea currents and follow life guard's advice. Mount Lavinia has a lifeguard on duty. Best sunsets can be seen from Mount Lavinia.
The property is as featured in the photos. They have a pair of caretakers who look after us well.
Location is quiet, and very near to Mt. Lavinia Hotel.
Don’t judged the place by the exterior of the building, it is an oasis in there.
The room is clean and nice, with air con and a ceiling fan. Mosquito net draped over the bed and the bathroom is also equipped with amenities + hot water.
We asked for omelettes and toast for our breakfast and it was done perfectly.
I had a fantastic one-day stay at the Ice Berg. The location was excellent. The highlight was the delicious breakfast they provided, which was a delightful start to the day. The cleanliness of the room, lobby, and all the apartment areas was impressive, adding to the overall pleasant experience. Considering the price, this apartment was an excellent value for money. As I was there for work purposes, the stay was both productive and enjoyable.
No breakfast. Location is a little bit far away from Colombo center, so from IVS Global which undertake indian visas for the
lazy indian diplomats...Very quiet at night and wonderful birds in the garden. You understand why Sri Lanka has birds
printed on every banknote.
A taxi (Tuk-tuk) driver who knows Colombo (rare !) and speak good english : Mr Suren 071 944 8568 and 077 277 7464.
The staff was very welcoming and accommodating to my wishes (e.g. late arrival and early departure). The room is nice and the staff personally brought the portable WiFi router to ensure optimal internet connection! In addition, the hotel is relatively close by Mountain Lavinia Train station (from where you can depart anywhere) as well as the beautiful bNo each.
Staff was extremely helpful. Had a lovely view of the Ocean. Bathroom facilities were good. The English Breakfast we had there was good. Loved the platter of fruits that we got until the breakfast was ready. Since the hotel is situated adjacent to the Mount Lavinia Beach, we found plenty of night time entertainment from food to live music in walking distance.
One of the fantastic places I stayed during my short time in Sri Lanka. Very friendly n supportive staff including owner. Facilities were top notch.
Nature friendly decoration n very much calm place to stay. Near to beach n all the main restaurants around the corner.
The bed was super comfortable n well maintained rooms.
It was one of the best location we stayed at. The staff and owner were absolutely amazing. Definitely would return again. the room are extremely spacious and cozy. Very clean.
Special mention to my Bosco the dog he was such a calm and cute dog loved seeing him every morning 🥰
This is our favourite place to start or end a Sri Lanka journey. We´ve been here before. It´s close to the beach, short walk to Mount Lavinia, but also close to Colombo city.
The rooms a spacious, very good beds, but the badrooms are incredible.
We will come back!
The room and the bathroom were spacious and very clean. Staff were really helpful and friendly. Although this place is situated in the middle of Mount lavinia, you can have a calm environment once you entered to this place.
The Place is very clean. Our room had a good size and the bed was comfy. The breakfast was also good. It is actually almost a bit like a homestay. But you have all the comfort as in a hotel.
The staff was really pleasant and helpful.Sabeena,Lochana and Dushanty are great humans.They helped us a lot to plan a trip in Colombo.The pool was good.The food they served was yummy.
Everything was perfect from the service and amenities to the food. I highly recommend the property and this will be my go-to place for this budget in Colombo from now onwards!
We really liked the room space and quality for the price we paid. Beds and bathroom were very clean. Would definitely consider this place to stay again around this area.
Great hotel with very friendly hosts. Everything what you need- you can just ask and staff will help you! Looking forward to come back again! Thank you!❤️
