Regenta Arie Lagoon Negombo

Hôtel super, avec un accueil très chaleureux ! Le sunset face au lagoon et à la piscine est à faire et nous avons très bien mangé Propreté des lieux, service de grande qualité (voiturier, réception très réactive,…) Je recommande !

We stayed for 3 nights at the end of our trip around Sri Lanka. The check-in process (at around 6 pm) was welcoming, although I think it's weird to be asked to pay for our rooms during check-in. Our room was great. Fantastic air-con and a really comfortable bed. We appreciated the cake to help us celebrate our anniversary. Thank you. Although we had a good time, it could've been great. The main pool was closed until our last day. There was never any pool towels, we always had to ask, then wait up to 30 minutes to get a towel and sunbed mattress in the morning. The pool is advertised as being open from 7am, but it clearly isn't. We had dinner in the restaurant 2 out of our 3 nights, both times due to convenience (1st night, just arrived after a very long day travelling and 3rd night, when it was pouring down). The food was OK, for the price, it could've been better. Finally, breakfast. Very disappointing. Only having runny scrambled eggs as an option isn't great. When I asked someone in chefs whites for boiled eggs, I was told a flat, 'No'. I asked the maitre d' lady, who initially also told me 'no' before going off and organising me 2 boiled eggs (which were perfect). After almost 3 weeks of travel around Sri Lanka, we were used to the differences in breakfasts, however, this is certainly not a cheap hotel and the least you should expect is a good breakfast with a variety of food items. Needless to say, we only had breakfast here on our first morning, made other arrangements after that. I wonder what this hotel is like during the height of the season- it certainly felt like it was closing down and we were a bit of an inconvenience. Other people have posted about the events hosted here. There was a corporate event during the middle day of our stay. We were woken before 7am with banging as they put the gazebos up, and again late into the evening when things were taken down, absolute pain. All in all we feel disappointed. This was by far the most expensive place we stayed in. It could've been amazing but just left us feeling underwhelmed and disappointed.

Beautiful, comfy bed & amazing pillows I was upgraded second night because of a private party near my room. Staff organised room change anticipating loud music before party started. All staff friendly & cheerful The pool was amazing & a beautiful place to chill & read my book.

Bit disappointing, was the first place we stayed in SL after a long flight and were disappointed to be kept awake both the nights we were there by a wedding on the first night and a large function the second night. Feels a bit like families/ travellers get in the way of these big events. Food was ok, pool nice but not much shade around it, air con and rooms good - apart from the noise! Overall not very relaxing or special.

Lovely staff...special mention to chief chef Anura, who made us feel welcome at every meal. Quiet and peaceful hotel, allowing for a very relaxed stay. Room was a bit dated, but very big and great outdoor bathroom. Easy to get to Negombo using bus or tuk tuk.

Very authentic experience in the middle of the nature - very nice room (bungalow), friendly and authentic staff + exquisite food! Would definitely come again and can recommend it to anyone! Perfect location to calm a bit down and enjoy nature!

Stayed here on a Secret Escapes trip. Arrived late in the afternoon. Room very big! Seating area and large wardrobe area. Bathroom was huge but had no real roof. Just Mosquito netting so noise came though. Bed very comfy. Lots of comfortable pillows. Air con was brilliant and very powerful. Only complaint was the industrial size conditioners were loud and could be heard a little from the bed. WiFi was good enough to stream Netflix. Staff were very helpful Food not bad. Standard half board food. Safe in room - yes but not fixed to anything. Overall very nice but didn’t make full use of the facilities due to short stay.

Nice and comfy room with the fluffiest pillows. Very friendly and accommodating staff. Amazing pool, there's actually 02 pools at the property. Amazing experience. Food wise, the desserts could use some improvement. Overall the food is great barring the desserts.

Oh it’s a long story of visiting this beautiful Logoon side Resort. We had booked this resort way back in 2021, but Covid2 arrived. We postponed to 2022 but Economy meltdown happened, we booked for 2023 but has to postpone for personal reasons. All this while , the Resort was extremely patient and finally we made it in 2024. Apart from many other Front Office officers, it was ultimately Ms Sachini because of who this trip happened. Thanks to her, and her Manager Mr Muzini Jiffry for their excellent Customer handling. The resort itself is beautifully located on a thin ***** of land with the ocean on one side and Negambo lagoon. Well mowed lawns, beautiful rooms, Pool by the Lagoon, Dining hall with Lagoon view. Their F&B department could have no match. Buffet spreads were amazing. Restaurant Manager Mr Ian was so very cooperative, Chef Anurag always served with a smile. Chef Mahesh was the person who created some amazing dishes on our personal request. Shanika the Restaurant Supervisor made sure we ate well and affectionately served us. Our House keeper was also so efficient. She ensured our neat and clean stay. We were also fortunate to meet the Chairman of Regenta Resorts during our stay. He exchanged some good words with us and asked us to visit again. Overall an Out Of The World experience. We’ve decided to visit this Resort again.
