We had a fantastic stay at your hotel. The staff were friendly, smiling, and helpful with absolutely everything. The reception team was consistently accommodating and helpful—especially Ann. The head chef Naline and his team did a fantastic job; the food served by the hotel kitchen was exquisite. We highly recommend this place to anyone looking for delicious Sri Lankan cuisine. The quality of both the food and the service was excellent. We look forward to seeing you again next year with our children.

It’s a nice beachfront property but the beach is not suitable for swimming or bathing, the sea water is not clean as the waste water from the land comes and mix in the sea. Hotel rooms a very tired, need a good clean and the furnitures need replacing The staff are very friendly and helpful and it’s beautifully landscaped and maintained

Pegasus Beach comfortable hotel

I stayed here twice on my trip to Sri Lanka. First time with a large group. The hotel is in a great spot on the beach. You can’t swim at the beach plus it’s rather dirty with rubbish. It has beautiful grounds and a pool to enjoy. Food is good, staff are good. Rooms need renovating but clean and functional. No lifts but the staff carry the luggage for you.

Great value (when you can get a deal)

We booked it through expedia and got a great deal which made the hotel really good value! The hotel has a beautiful pool area and great rooms however we wasn't that happy about the breakfast buffet. The location isn't the best either it's a bit far from Colombo and the airport and even though it's next to the Ocean, you can't go swimming in it because of big rocks.

Need to recycle

Our stay has been nice. What saddens me is the trash I saw on the beach. It’s not in front of the hotel but all along the beach. People here don’t respect the beauty they have here enough to put their trash and recycle in the right containers and our oceans and beaches suffer from it.
