This boutique hotel is very nice and well-maintained. The staff is very helpful- they arranged a relaxing massage and also the transfer to the airport super easily. It’s definitely the place to stay in Negombo

There were just a few tiny things, but didnt impact the experience. We thought the beds were to hard. The wicker blinders on the outside could do with replacement and at some places it could do with a lick of new paint. Nothing major and definitely didnt impact any of the relaxation and joy staying there

We have stayed in 8 hotels during our trip, the dickman was the best one, with staff it had 2 compete with 2 other really great ones, but they won. The guys who work there are absolutely amazing, treated us like a King and queen and we had a lot of fun with them. The first night my matrass wasnt good, they told me the next morning i should have come to them straight away as they would have solved it, even in the middle of the night. The hotel was the best spot i could have picked for the last few days, it's a little colorful paradise, it was very very clean and with eye for detail. I love the vibrant colors, we got a deluxe room with pool entrance. The pool was nice and clean, the rooms spaceous and well decorated. Breakfast was really good with enough options. The cocktails were lovely. Definitely would go here again. Massive thanks for the wonderful staff

The staff at the Dickman Resort were fabulous, friendly, helpful and kind. They gave us excellent recommendations for places to eat and also helped arrange a massage at a nearby facility that was amazing. We stayed in the Mango Suite (yellow) which was very well appointed. The bed was huge and comfortable. The pool was clean, deep and refreshing. The pet turtles that roam the grounds were cute. Breakfast was very good, fruit, eggs and toast. We really enjoyed our stay and highly recommend staying there.

I spent unforgettable days at this beautiful hotel, surrounded by breathtaking nature and a kind, attentive, and helpful staff. I truly felt like I was in a beautiful dream I didn’t want to wake up from. A special thanks to Harsha, Danu, Ayomal, and Isanka — I will definitely return in the future.

Very nice Place to stay ,especially for gays! The staff is very kind & very helpful. From check-in until the check- out, everthing was well organized and professionally handeld We were there over Singhalese New Year and a lot of shops were closed. But everybody helped and organized everthing we needed. The rooms are big, very well equipped and very clean, like the completed hotel area. The breakfast was also good: Eggs, Omelette,Pancakes, Fruit platter… You also can play Pool billiard or invite friends to join you in the pool area. Easy going, chilled place only few meters from the nice big beach. We looking forward to come back asap! Greetings Simon ❤️Mike

The furnishing of the individual rooms was simply fantastic. The feeling for the colors and the small details is like art. The staff, like the owner, are lovely and super friendly and accommodating. Everything is prepared with a lot of love and the included breakfast is the best I have ever had, sumptuous, fresh and again the small details like the butter and the jam on the table or how the fruit is cut. You simply have to see this hotel

No mirror in the bedroom which would have helped.

5 star service without the price and very very friendly. Close proximity to the centre of Negombo. Excellent breakfast with relaxed eating times, no need to set an alarm!

This place is great. Lovely pool, plenty of subdbeds, great food, the Mango Suite was fab but the best part was the staff. So friendly but really helpful and efficient. Service was quick and the food was good. This is such a relaxing place but really close to all the bars, restaurants and beach life. Just perfect

Nothing not to like!

Very quiet small property with a lovely pool and sunbeds with thick mattresses and towels provided. Absolutely enormous comfortable bed with mosquito net and soft pillows. Great Sri Lankan and western breakfast and fantastic friendly staff. Restaurants and beach a five minute walk away. The perfect place to unwind after a long flight.

Wonderful guesthouse in pleasant Negombo. Conversely located 5 mins from the Main Street and the beach. Tons of restaurants and bars to choose from there. 20 mins by car from the airport. 1 hour to Colombo. A perfect little oasis to rest, unwind and ease into your holiday. Rooms were clean, spacious and comfortable. Big pool. Lovely cafe/bar. Great value for money. Felt safe and well taken care of. Staff is stellar! Professional, pleasant, helpful! Loved them all, and plan to return.
