Reviews
The team at Marino Beach Hotel were absolutely amazing warm, attentive, and always ready to help, which made my stay really pleasant and comfortable.
The one disappointment was the strict policy: Food are not allowed near the pool or sun‑lounge areas, only in one corner of the rooftop Level 10. This isn’t a practical choice many guests want to relax and enjoy a light meal or snack while staying by the water. Having to dry off and change fully to enter the restaurant meant it was often empty, and I think the hotel misses out on extra business this way.
Otherwise, a nice, well‑kept property with lovely people just hope they review that rule soon.
I booked two "Superior King Rooms," but upon arrival, the hotel claimed this category doesn't exist and forced me into basic "Deluxe" rooms. They continue to advertise these non-existent categories online.
As a family with elderly members and children, we were also assigned rooms at opposite ends of the floor, despite our request for proximity. Management was dismissive and blamed the booking platform rather than taking responsibility for their own inventory.
Be aware: What you book is not what you will get. I expected 5-star service but received a downgrade and zero accountability. Save your money and look elsewhere.
Offered free half day tour Okay,but came back to find our safe open and found $100 was missing from my purse and $100 from my husbands wallet. Reported it but they said no one had entered room. It was our second day in Sri Lanka so we know it was taken. Just be careful. It wasn't a good start to our holiday.
Location is perfect
Room is so clean
Breakfast and dinner is nice
All workers was so polite
The Marino Beach is arranging city tours
