we have stayed many times over the past years at Pigeon Island beach resort and watched it getting more tired each year , this year we could see the improvements that Kumar the manager has been able to achieve on a limited budget, the meals if from the set menu are very good and tasty , but we avoided the buffet when the hotel was a bit busier , breakfasts are good and freshly cooked eggs to your taste. The location is everything about this hotel , a large beach , clear warm waters and good for swimming if the sea is calm , we go just before the main season and occasionally the sea is a bit choppy and not safe for swimming. Over the past 12 years we have befriended a group of beach dogs and feed and give them water as they have nothing to do with the hotel , the dogs do not like the local people but are friendly towards the tourists , for obvious reasons , again mummy dog is carrying her latest litter , each year we hope she is able to be spayed but she is never at the stage it can be done.
could do with more sunbeds and umbrellas on the beach , and not over keen on the buffet which is offered when the hotel becomes busier , for us the quiet location is great , but be warned if you do not like being in a quiet area and require restaurants or shops Trincomalee is about 20 minutes by Tuk Tuk. Being off season the beach areas just a short way from the hotel are littered with plastic bottles and other rubbish , in the main season they are a lot cleaner.

Peaceful location. The staff were very friendly.
Expensive for quite a tired resort. Leaky shower. Dated bathrooms. Basic accommodation. Unable to walk along beach to Nilavelli due to naval restrictions.
