    The dinner food was incredibly disappointing, tasteless and mostly defrosted. I recommend keeping fresh local ingredients and recipes, rather than attempting Western food. Play to your strengths! However, I'd like to add that breakfast was a great buffet selection of food and it did make up for the evening before.

    Lovely facilities, with clean and well-kept rooms with a nice view, and a great pool and beach set-up :)

    The room was very spacious. The beach was excellent and clean. The ambience of the hotel was top-notch and the staff was also very supportive. The environment was well-maintained and the staff made us feel welcome. Overall, this was an excellent stay.

    Breakfast wasn’t that tasty and quality wasn’t the best (for examble waffles were really dry). Location is nice if you want to spend your holiday in the resort only but if you want to see rest of the city, which is really different than hotel area, it is quite hard to find tuktuk or taxi nearby. It was said on the booking.com that bikes are free to use but you had to pay to use them. Gym and bar were a bit dirty. Bar was also oddly decorated and had weird smell so we enjoyed our drinks outside. Outside bar near the beach would be a great addition

    Rooms were really spacious and nicely decorated. They were clean and had everything you needed. Pool area was also clean and cozy. Beach was really nice, clean and safe to swim. Hotel staff were nice and helpful.

    Very friendly staff. The front office staff provided us with prompt service. Specially F&B Team including F&B manager,supervisor gave us a nice service. Should thanks to kitchen(chefs) for the tasty food. They have very nice spread of food items and those are very tasty. Every employee of the hotel gave us good care. Really love this hotel and will visit again.

    The pool water circulation should improve, because the water was really warm. It would have also been great if there were easily accessible pool towels.

    We really loved having easy access to the beach and being able to take a quick dip whenever we wanted. Being able to watch the sunrise and go for a morning swim /jog on the beach was a fabulous experience. The pool was also open until 8 pm, which was fabulous for a late-night dip. The food was scrumptious and the spread was really good. The staff was very attentive and the day we stayed was the Sri Lankan new year day, where the hotel staff had planned a host of activities and traditional food/games for us to devour. Loved everything!

    Nothing! We loved our stay

    We had a great stay at the Calm Resort… really comfortable rooms, we were upgraded to sea view room which was great! The beach was easily reachable from the room and so was the pool. We stayed with our elderly parents and young kids and the resort was suitable for all! The pool was big and great to swim in. The food was great, we had breakfast included which was a buffet of English breakfast and Sri Lankan food. Good choices. Lunch was Al A Carte and dinner was buffet which was slightly expensive, but expected in a resort of this size. The staff were exceptionally friendly and in hand to help as needed; proving once again nothing beats Sri Lankan hospitality! Special shout out to the Housekeeping staff, who added an extra bed for us and also cleaned the room out of hours as our kids put on the do not disturb sign on the whole day accidentally! The highlight of the whole trip for me was the beach and the sea! It was best that o have. Seen in Sri Lanka to swim in… relatively calm and easy to swim in.

    Absolutely NOTHING.

    The location of the resort was great. In comparison to similar establishments in the area, The Calm Resort offered a lot more, and without doubt this resort had the best beach in comparison to others. The breakfast buffet was great, had a lot of varieties, and the food was great. The staff were really friendly and were able to assist us. I can with no doubt recommend this resort to anyone, and definitely this is my go to place in Pasikuda.

    1. Room service food was well below 4 star expectations. 2. Staff members were mostly awesome but one of them did graffiti in the secure parking on our car’s dusty windscreen with the singhalese equivalent of “F*CK*R”, despite heavy tipping on top of the 10% service charge throughout our 5 day stay. Little to no response to complaint at reception. Disappointed!

    Awesome beach for swimming and wading up to 50 metres in at waist depth. Firm sand under foot. Beautifully kept garden and beach.
