Review summary

Based on recent reviews

Citrus Waskaduwa is often praised for its location right next to the beach, allowing for easy access and breathtaking views of the Indian Ocean, especially from room balconies. Guests frequently enjoy the spacious, clean rooms with comfortable beds, as well as the well-maintained grounds where birds, squirrels and monitor lizards are often seen. The buffet, featuring a wide variety of dishes and live cooking stations, also tends to be a highlight, although some guests have noted limited variety in the dinner and breakfast buffets at times. The pool is also considered OK and quite large.
