BEAUTIFUL, very spacious room! Probably the best we've stayed in Sri-lanka. Helpful staff Their Sri-lankan dinner IS truly amazing! The place itself didn't have many guests, so we enjoyed solitude to the fullest.

The stay at R Degrees, is one in a lifetime! We have had an unforgettable stay, and the staff really do everything to make the stay a perfect holiday! Clean room, clean swimming pool, always pool towels fresh and clean. Private beautiful sandy beach, kind of sheltered so we was swimming alot in the sea also. Very good breakfast and dinner. The perfect staff! The perfect place to relax.

The staff were excellent attentive and went above and beyond to make sure we were happy and had everything we needed , the hotel was very clean at all times , and if you want to relax with a beautiful view of the Indian ocean with excellent sea food and the friendliest people r degrees is definitely the place . We spent two weeks at r degrees and was a brilliant base to go explore sri lanka, the management organised a scooter for me to get down to galle area in the morning to get a dawn surf and even extended breakfast so I could get back and still have some. They organise some brilliant excursions to the safari's, lion rock ,swimming with whale sharks , trips to the elephant sanctuary, and all at very reasonable prices. I highly recommend r degrees if you want to relax and Enjoy the beautiful beach where you can sometimes see sea turtles swimming past and if your up early enough you can watch the tradition fishing boats come ashore through pounding surf.

This was an amazing sanctuary for me at the end of the active days I was there. You can hear the sound of the waves crashing at night which was the perfect white nose to put me to sleep :) There was this one time when I could not get hold of anyone via the landline, however, the staff was super friendly and very responsive once you get hold of them. The manager was very accommodating and everybody was attentive with a big smile. The hotel is within walking distance of many local stores (restaurants and pharmacies) and also close to the bus and train stations.

We travelled as a family of 12 and stayed at this hotel over Christmas and new year. What a wonderful experience. All rooms are very spacious and exceptionally clean with each room having a sea view. Fantastic. Pool & garden area just beautiful. Beach front which was amazing with plenty of sunbeds and lovely towels for everyone at any time of day. The best thing of all, was the staff. Just wow. They could not do enough for all of us to make our stay extra special. Whatever we asked for they did their best to make sure everything was in place. Even the chefs asked daily if there was anything we would like them to cook for us for our evening meal. The lady in the spa was just so lovely and the treatments were great. The whole experience was amazing. Thank you to each and everyone of you for making our family holiday so wonderful.

- Big room - Great service - Delicious food, big portions and reasonably priced - Stable WiFi - No issues with electricity during the power cuts, all worked well - Located next to a very nice and clean beach - Plenty of sunbeds, hammocks - Wonderful massage service for a good price - Clean and big pool - All area around the hotel properly maintained - Near a supermarket - Not rushing you to make a payment just after you arrive (as some other hotels do)

Everything. Setting is amazing, beautiful location, great staff and very good value.

The pool, the view, the privacy, the room and especially the bathroom, the staff, the massage, the breakfast, Sri Lankan curries, the garden and the beach.
