    noisy rooms
    poor breakfast

    I asked for a quiet room but ended up with a street-level cacophony, and oh, the breakfast was certainly edible, but definitely nothing worth raving about. Utterly disappointing that after all this, i wasn't even offered a complimentary drink as compensation, i mean, how hard could that be?

    awesome breakfast
    clean pool
    friendly staff
    mosquito issues
    poor room allocation

    The Really good breakfast here was something to rave about! We also relished chilling by the pool, nothing like a dip after a day of beach vibes. The staff made sure our room was stocked with fresh drinking water every day, and checking in early was a real treat.

    We booked rooms with a balcony, yet found ourselves in wet ground-level rooms, swarming with mosquitoes. After some fuss, we were switched to lovely second-floor rooms, though one had a choppy AC. Everything still sparkled in the end.

    clean rooms
    well-maintained pool
    noisy environment

    Rooms clean with daily upkeep. The pool maintained well always, great for cooling off after a day.

    Noise from monkeys on the roof could ruin a quiet night. The gym needed better equipment, and the restaurant didn't serve dinner, leaving limited options for meals.

    limited sunbeds

    I had a fantastic stay here! The food was absolutely delicious, and I couldn't wait for every meal. The pool was large and inviting, perfect for a relaxing afternoon. Just wish there had been more sunbed options!

    I honestly have no complaints. the rooms are stylish and well-maintained, plus you get a beautiful view of the sunrise. It's also in a great spot, just a short distance from Lewes Market Tower. 🌅.

    tidy rooms
    delicious food
    spacious pool
    outdated gym equipment

    After exploring arugam bay, i found the blue wave exceeded my expectations. The inter-connected rooms were tidy and cute, and the chef really knew how to dazzle our taste buds. It felt great to relax by the spacious pool after a day of strolls on the beach.

    the gym equipment was outdated.

    I had a fantastic stay at the Blue Wave Hotel! the breakfast was great, featuring a reasonable spread with a lot of outstanding options to choose from. the hotel's location is convenient and lovely, making it easy to explore the area. I was here for 6 days, and I would definitely book again!

    We had a fantastic stay at this luxurious 4-star hotel. The location couldn't have been better, right in the heart of everything. It was just a short walk to the beautiful beach, as well as bars and restaurants. The hotel itself had top-notch facilities, including a large swimming pool that was perfect for relaxing after a day of surfing. We also enjoyed the pool table and had a great time playing games. The staff were friendly and went above and beyond to ensure our comfort. They even helped us move to a better room and gave us a special souvenir on our departure. The daily room cleaning and the availability of amenities like air conditioning and Wi-Fi were impressive.

    We found that the bed could be a bit more comfortable, but the staff were quick to provide us with softer pillows, which helped improve our sleep. we highly recommend this hotel for families looking for a luxurious and comfortable stay.
