Amanta Beach, hotel in Nilaveli

Offering a year-round outdoor swimming pool and views of the sea, Amanta Beach is set in Nilaveli, 20 km from Trincomalee. Each air-conditioned room offers a view. Rooms have a private bathroom.

The best place for a relaxed holiday at the beach. Everything is perfect, it is all in the details…. The maintenance is excellent. The owners wife is French so you can feel it in the interiors. The wide beach is spotless clean, they check it every day. Next to a cute fisherman place with little boats. Lovely garden. The swimming pool is very cute. The food is very good. The chefs worked in 5 star hotels. They can arrange tuk tuk and different tours ( they do not charge commission). Thank you for this little paradise!

Hospitality with a heart - the staff was very helpful with all requests we had like Scooters, Doctors and things to do in the area.

    This is a hidden gem, easily screened out if you were looking for 4 star plus. This place is a paradise if you are looking for a relaxing vacation and get trained in Scuba and get certification. Diving school at the edge of this property has all the gear you can rent for the day or you can bring your own. Instructors are experienced in local reefs and diving hot spots. Best food here is Sri Lankan food and fresh off the boat seafood. If you don't like spicy food, choices may be limited. My daughters, one of whom was a Vegan had plenty of choices.

    Nilaveli is a quiet place on the whole.

    Nilaveli is a quiet place on the whole. If you're into snorkeling....dolphin watching and whale watching then this is the ideal place for you. We stayed at an amazing boutique property called cbeyond nelaveli. The property has one of the cleanest Beaches if not the cleanest beach in the area. Also you get picked up at that beach itself for all the activities so it's very convenient. Also a must go place for a drink or swim is Beach lovers. There's actually a few really Beach bar's on this strip of beach. Vitamin Sea is a very cool Beach bar on the same beach.

    Nilaveli beach is great and you really need a vehicle to get around Nilaveli and to the Trinco town and Nilaveli beach, the hotel is perfect if you are there for relaxation and chill. I'm vegetarian hence beachside restaurant is not a perfect place to talk about food, however, the staff of Nilaveli Beach hotel did offer me some good local and international vegetarian dishes and the taste was good as well. You can do many activities there, but the time I was travelling was not ideal for any activities because of the COVID-19. It was more of a forceful stay to pass the day.

    Fabulous resort with excellent friendly staff.

    Fabulous resort with excellent friendly staff. Rooms are super clean and beds very comfortable. AC works great and there are fans as well. The food at the restaurant is a bit pricey but we managed to use the fridge in the room and have our driver take us to get snacks and breakfast foods so we ate only our dinner at the resort. The pool is wonderful, clean and there is plenty of shade. The beach also has shade. Beach towels and mats are provide for the pool and beach area so you don't need to take towels from the room. The staff are always asking if you need anything and always have a smile on their faces. This place is fantastic apart from the internet which is only in the area near the lobby and restaurant and is not always the best. Otherwise the resort is a 5 star in our opinion.

    I recommend everybody to go to a good hotel for your stay!

    I recommend everybody to go to a good hotel for your stay! Spend some more money but better stay in a good one. We stayed in Nilaveli Beach Front Condos. Nilaveli Beach is a super place. Enjoyed Lovely sunrise.unforgettable! Even we saw the sunset at kinniya on the same day. So it's fab! Pigeon island is a must place to go. You will see how much you love the almighty when going on that little boat. But on the way back its normal. Pregnant ladies...don't go in that boat. I suggest the Navy to have a kind of a big safety boat for travelling. Boat rate - 2000/- ( don't rent from anywhere else, not even from your hotel as it's run by a society) Tickets - we paid only 765/- for 6 Snorkeling rate - 600/- per set per person Don't get safety jackets as it's no use while Snorkeling. They charge 400/-. Don't hire a guide. They will just take you to a place telling you fairy tales. It's a safe place. Officials are there for any assistance. Only thing is you should keep some first aid as sometimes people will get cuts for corals. Enjoy coral and fish. But do not touch! No much places to eat in trinco though. So better have your food in the hotel itself. Our food was awesome at Beach front condos! Ohhh yet mouth watering. If not go to Dutch Bank closer to navy camp. Super clean food! If anyone need any clarification or help please do contact me for more details.

    The view! The whales! The dolphins! The reef sharks!

    The view! The whales! The dolphins! The reef sharks! The Turtles! The lagoon! The sea! Viability for days! Sunrises and sun sets! The town is lovely too!!! Use a tuk tuk and get him to take you to temples and around Trincomalee. Also look on tripadvisor for good food places! There are too many but you cant walk to them.

    Wonderful property just a minutes walk from the beach! Staff were very welcoming and couldn’t do enough for us. Room was spacious with a pool side terrace. Fantastic location for all kinds of beach and sight seeing. Tuk tuk tour to Trincomalee was excellent. Brilliant guide and tailored it to suite our family. Snorkelling trip to Pigeon Island was a highlight of our entire trip! Wonderful pool with bar. Ate there one night and the food was traditional and very tasty. Close proximity to beach bars and restaurants

    As a traveler from Canada to Sri Lanka, my family and I had an unforgettable experience at this beach resort. The highlight was the whale watching tour organized by the hotel, where we were able to see these magnificent creatures up close. The knowledgeable guides provided fascinating information about the whales and the surrounding marine life. The resort's facilities were top-notch, and the staff was attentive and friendly. We enjoyed the delicious food, beautiful beach.

    Very quirky, simple hotel right on the beach, tastefully decorated as a beach shack. This is not a swanky hotel, rather a small, simple relaxed hotel. The staff were very friendly, although you do need to understand this is a developing part of the world- so you’re not going to get service like you would in Hawaii or Sydney. We had a delicious curry for dinner and the breakfast buffet very tasty with a selection of traditional foods.

    Lovely, friendly family, especially the mum who made a good breakfast. Great location very close to the beach. Nice to have a balcony in peaceful surroundings. It was great that we could easily organise our trip to pigeon island through the hotel. We really loved Nilaveli. It is a lot quieter and more authentic than other beach areas around here.
