    This plac was great and it is getting renovated further. Lovelt staff went our of their ay to be so helpful, including going out to get me special food for my breakfast. There is a beautiful pool, gardenwith birds, the rooms were very large and clean (just didn't have a tv and tea/coffee but I think that can be arranged) and a short walk to the beach.

    On reflection, the booking.com price for included breakfast was expensive but I guess justified by the size and quality. I found most of the staff quite unfriendly except for the lovely night watchman and the breakfast chef who was keen to please. There is a large construction site alongside the pool, possibly additional bedrooms. At its current early stage, it wasn't very noisy and didn't cause us any inconvenience.

    The room was big and modern with a good bathroom with quality towels. The pool was huge with adequate sunbeds. Breakfast was massive with a fruit plate, fresh juice and a large plate of cooked food (eggs, sausages, potatoes and vegetables with fried chicken or prawns) as well as good toast. There was a fridge and kettle but we had to ask for cups.

    The pool was very big but there where many crows, they pooed everywhere. The kitchen in the pool was not very clean. Two cockroaches coming from the bathroom but i didnt mind too much. The towel-holder broke down when i hung a towel onto it.

    It had a nice shower and it was very close to the beach and bars and restaurants. Stuff was very kind and friendly. The beach and the sea were magnificent.

    During our entire stay, our room was never cleaned, so we probably should have asked. We had enough towels, but we were surprised; usually hotels clean the room every day. Short bed (I am 1.77m, feet were hanging) , there is one bedside table near the bed, not two. There was no heated towel rail in the room, but everything dried perfectly outside on chairs

    The hotel has a great location, it has its own path to the beach, a clean beach with a cafe a 4-minute walk away. The hotel manager is very hospitable, the staff is good, they try to help with all questions. Our room was decorated for our arrival on the occasion of our honeymoon. The staff helped us change money, navigated where there were good shops, and prepared breakfast for ourselves before we left for the airport. The hotel area is very green, chickens and rabbits are walking around, it’s so cute. There is hot water with good pressure! The air conditioner and fan work great. Freshly renovated, clean and working plumbing

    Lucky Beach Not Quite Ready

    Resort is overstating jt. It is a work in progress for sure. Locks and door knobs in the room don’t always work, towel rack was coming off the wall, wifi is very slow(though you don’t come here for that), was told beach towels were only for the pool but they let us take them to the beach anyway. Also reception has no computer so everything is done by hand, a painfully slow process and they don’t take credit cards. They have a lot of work to do and seems to be open prematurely.

    Lucky Beach has a great pool, that’s for sure. Location is good and unlike other nearby properties is nice and quiet. The staff were welcoming and friendly.

    A nice hotel, a beautiful area where peacocks walk, chipmunks and iguanas run. A beautiful pool, a very hearty breakfast (probably after it you will not want to eat until the evening). Five minutes to the beach, near the beach there is a great cafe and sun loungers from this cafe. Upuveli Beach is the best in all Trincomalee. The hotel staff is available at any time and is always ready to help in solving the nuances. There are tours from the hotel, such as fishing. There are no mosquito nets, because there are no mosquitoes either. Overall nice and cozy.

    Just details. Some leaves and insekts in the pool. Really not a big problem. Little long walk to the beach. But really nice beach.

    Fantastically nice newly renovated room. Large bathroom with large shower. Good Wi-Fi. Very nice pool. Good size to swim in. Sunbeds in the pool. Pool area around bar and restaurant. Good restaurant with a large selection and good prices. Good breakfast.

    Bad customer service & poor value for money!

    We chose to spend a little bit more on our stay in Lucky Beach resort having read the reviews and seen the pictures on Booking.com however we do not think the Lucky Beach is good value for money. We think that you could spend the same, or less, in Trincomalee for a nicer experience. Twice during our stay we ordered a jug of ice tea to drink at the pool and the wait was extremely long, even though we were the only customers there! We also asked for some fresh towels and were made to feel as though this was an extraordinary request. The manger told us that we couldn't have our towels that evening but to "leave it with him" for the next morning, he spoke to me as though he was doing me a favour. The next morning we were told on more than one occasion that the towels were on the way. The staff also made several different excuses as to why we hadn't received them. The manager blamed other staff members for not purchasing new towels and later returned to tell us that all of the towels had turned red. To cut a long story short we checked out without ever receiving fresh towels. It was a very strange situation. We didn't like being made to feel as though we were asking for the world!! The manager did not deal well with the situation, we would not recommend Lucky Beach Resort.

    The pool area in Lucky Beach is lovely. The breakfast is tasty. The proximity to the beach is also good.
