Good stopover hotel, not for long Tangalle stay.
Nice hotel, but location was well out of the way, though we did stumble on an incredible home run restaurant which was a 2 minute walk from the hotel called Coco’s Restaurant. Fair hotel, with a decent swimming pool.

SHOCKING BAD HOTEL
Good: Rooms were clean, bright and well appointed with large, comfortable, bed and a superb bathroom with fantastic shower. Bad: The swimming pool was poor with no attendant. The staff were not great, although they tried their best. The food was RUBBISH and was recycled and renamed on a daily basis. (Roast chicken on Monday was cooked 'pinl' and labelled roast chicken - on Tuesday it was cooked again and labelled Chinese chicken - on Wednesday it was practically cremated and labelled as chicken devilled!!!) The prices for the RUBBISH food were SHOCKING - overpriced and inflated by at least 250%. I love Sri Lanka and visit every year with my Sri Lankan wife and our family who live here - we always treat them to a 3 or 4 day mini break - and on other platforms you will see I leave good reviews - but I have been embarrassed to bring my family to this very substandard hotel. When I politely pointed out problems - the response was always "sorry sir, it's now 'out of season' - why the pool is unattended / why only 1 of the 3 places to eat within the hotel are open etc. Accordingly, I should now only have to pay an 'out of season' price.............. because I only received an 'out of season' service.

Good modern property right beside beach. The side road leading to the hotel from the main road is in very poor condition. Rooms are modern and clean. Nice pool area. Great beach right at the hotel but it was not safe for swimming when we were there.

Value for money amazing quiet beach
For the low price of rooms (under €60 a night during peak season) this hotel is well worth a visit if you want somewhere relaxing to stay with no night life. My wife and I stayed for three nights after travelling from Ella. The hotel needs a little tidying up and a lick of paint but the pool is nice and the location on the beach is sublime. For the cost per night it is well worth a visit if you are in that area. I read some reviews that said "not five star," well of course it's not five star if your paying that price, you couldn't get five star anywhere in the world for that cost. The staff are very friendly and attentive enough but don't expect them to be at your beck and call. The hotel food is average but there is an awesome family restaurant called CoCo two minute walk out the front of the hotel if you head left. It's a typical Sri Lankan restaurant run out of the family home and as always in Sri Lanka it's the best place to try amazing fresh food at bargain prices. As I said there isn't much to do at night so don't go if you want a wild night. Overall I would defiantly recommend this place for location and low price. Also they have a lovely spa but be to the beach which offer a range of massages. Also remember staff get paid a pittance so tip the staff on your first day and you will get looked after during your stay.

Great get getaway on a quiet beach
Beautiful resort on a deserted beach, wonderful to spend a few quiet days away from all the hustle (if you are looking for party and lots of things to do nearby this is definitely not the place for you, there are just2 or three small restaurants in walking distance). The sea was very rough this time of year (August) with high and really strong waves. We still enjoyed playing in the surf. The food is good with prices on the high side but still OK. The staff was helpful even though they mixed up our reservation and we had to spend one night in a lower room category. The Spa was great, very relaxing and really professional and well trained massage therapists! Overall I would really recommend the hotel!

Overpriced, careless staff
Out of all 7 hotels we stayed in during our Sri Lanka trip, this was by far the worst! It was overpriced and lacked the service you would expect for the charges occurred. Due to a booking error we had ask for an extra bed for our children, which they did immediately, however what annoyed us was that they told us about the extra $18 per night not when we requested the bed, but as we were booking transfer through them for $70 to the national park. The laundry count sheet didn't clearly state who was to count the items, so we left it blank. When we handed the laundry to reception, we were asked to count our laundry there on the floor in front of departing guests. The bill for laundry was a whopping £42/$65 for a small bag. Our bedding started smelling a bit, so we placed the card to request for it to be changed on the bed, but as we discovered that night, the bedding was still smelly, we knew all they did was swap the bedding from one bed to another due to a small stain being on the sheet, which was on the children's sheet afterwards. Housekeeping was generally sloppy. The manager did nothing to compensate our complaints . On a good note, the location and setting are good for bird watching, nice pool and good restaurant staff. Please note we understand you get what you pay for and have spent a lot of time in this part of the world in a wide range of accommodation between £5 a night and £ 100 per night.

Good hotel and bad location
It is a good value for money. Staff are friendly and try to help. The worst part of the hotel is the hotel location. With nothing around it you will be stuck with in hotel. The restaurant services is not up to the level and the time needed to prepare the meal is too long. Otherwise I recommend this hotel.

Dress code
Ranna 212 was a very nice facility in a good beach front location. It had nice, quiet rooms with a secluded pool and good access to beach. The Spa was good quality and value. The downside was the food which was of very average quality. The hotel operated a policy which prevented my companion entering the restaurant in the evening despite being dressed very smartly in coloured slacks and an expensive, vest style top. The reason - his shoulders were not covered! This was despite four females having completely uncovered shoulders and one wearing shorts! Sexually discriminative implementation of an unnecessary dress code!

Отличный отель
Отель очень понравился - номер большой с балконом, в номере чисто, насекомых нет, кондиционер, чайник с чаем и кофе, ежедневная уборка, пастельное белье очень чистое. Очень вкусно кормят, выбор блюд хороший - шведский стол или, если мало гостей, меню (каждый день разное). Территория отеля красивая, есть бассейн с джакузи. Вокруг отеля много разных птиц, черепахи. Пляж и океан шикарные, очень живописно.

Går ej att bada i havet men fantastiskt spa!
Har redan recenserat en gång, förutom det jag redan skrivit så var det ett stort minus att man inte kunde bada i havet då det är farliga strömmar och höga vågar och röd flagg jämt. Deras spa var fantastiskt!

Dyrt & mycket fräsch - långt ifrån närmaste stad.
Hotellet är mycket fräscht och personalen väldigt service-inriktad och trevliga. Mycket renligt och perfekt för avkoppling. STORT minus för att det ligger långt ute i ingenstans/djungeln och det tar minst 30 minuter på väldigt dåliga vägar att ta sig till Tangalle. Wi-fi slutade fungera till och från men man gick bara till receptionen för att få en ny kod så fungerade det. Det står att de ska ha två restauranger - fanns bara en. Det fanns heller inte de två barer som det står att det ska finnas, utan man beställer i restaurangen. I vanliga fall hade detta inte varit ett problem men eftersom den närmsta restaurangen man annars kan välja är ett par i deras hem som bara har öppet då och då (Co-Co vilket jag STARKT rekommenderar) så har man inget annat val än att äta på hotellets otroligt dyra restaurang! På dessa priser läggs det dessutom på 30 procent i skatt och service avgift - inte okej! Då hade det passat bra att hotellets beskrivning stämde överens för efter flera dagar där så tröttnar man på maten som serveras.
