Everything was really perfect, but swimming in the ocean is dangerous as the wawes are really big near the hotel. Just in fromt of the hotel there are corals. So you will have to walk 10-15 mins on the right side of the beach. Food in the hotel was really good and you always can find a lot of not... More

This is a wonderful hotel with a homely atmosphere where we celebrated our Mom"s 80th birthday. The view out to the beach was fantastic and the view of the sunset breath taking. We were able to see fish in the shallow waters of the beach early morning. We were a large family of 12 and we had great fun. We... More

We were in citrus for a Hackathon and was not able to use most of the amenities in the hotel. But atmosphere was amazing and the host Alex was exceptional. The only criticism is the variation of food. Breakfast was good but Lunch and Dinner was more or less the same. But overall it was a good experience.

This is a wonderful hotel right in the centre of Hikkaduwa Tourist town. The way it is built will definitely make you feel that you are not anywhere near a town, but in a beach hotel. The hotel will provide the full access to the famous beach. You can enjoy seeing the sunset while skin-dipping in swimming pool. Swimming pool... More

I stayed at the Citrus with my whole family for three nights. The hotel is a renovation from a place that got destroyed by the tsunami. Although it is quite new and when I was there there were a lot of things still missing, the place is beautiful and full of promises for the future of Hikkaduwa beach. The pool... More
